CNN panel erupts when panelist asks why MN Democrats dress like 'Handmaid's Tale' to appease Somali community

A CNN panel erupted on Monday night after a conservative commentator called out the Minnesota lieutenant governor for appearing to wear a hijab. 

Minnesota Democratic Lt. Gov. and U.S. Senate candidate Peggy Flanagan appeared on a Somali TV station wearing what appears to be a hijab at a mall as a widespread fraud scandal implicating some Somali residents plagues the state.

"The Somali community is part of the fabric of the state of Minnesota," Flanagan said, looking into the camera.
