Minnesota Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar called for President Trump to be impeached on Tuesday after he threatened Iran with genocide unless the country makes a deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.

Donald Trump warned Iran that it could be “taken out in one night”, escalating his threats against Tehran as he demanded it reopen the Strait of Hormuz as part of any last-minute deal to halt the war.

The rejection came as Israel struck a key petrochemical plant in the massive South Pars natural gas field and killed two paramilitary Revolutionary Guard commanders.
