The daughter of 'Squad' member Ilhan Omar has faced criticism over claims that she was sprayed with chemical weapons during a pro-Palestine protest at Columbia University. Irsa Hirsi, 21, appeared on MSNBC alongside another student Monday night to blast the school over its handling of the fallout from the demonstrations. 'There is definitely some hypocrisy here,' Hirsi said. 'You can kind of see it with the students that sprayed us with the chemical weapons and the fact that there is no public information as to what happened to them.' While it is unclear what 'chemical' Hirsi was referring to, a Jewish student was suspended after spraying a foul-smelling liquid on protesters during a demonstration in January. The student, identified only as 'John Doe,' filed a lawsuit against the university last week, claiming he sprayed 'gag gifts' called 'Liquid Ass' and 'Wet Farts' into the air during the rally and 'not directly at any individual.' Actor and comedian Michael Rapaport hit back at Hirsi's claims on X, formerly Twitter, writing, 'We're heading down Jussie Smollet (sic) Street with this.'
