Today’s winner of the Conservative Barf Bag Award goes to Ramsey Khalid Ismael.
From NBC News
Johnny Somali, 25, whose real name is Ramsey Khalid Ismael, had been barred from leaving South Korea since he was indicted in 2024. On Wednesday, he was detained immediately after he was sentenced on a range of offenses, which also included distributing sexual deepfakes, according to the Seoul Western District Court.
Somali, a self-proclaimed internet troll, is best known for posting provocative videos on YouTube, Twitch and other platforms, several of which have banned him.
During a visit to Seoul in 2024, Somali drew outrage when he posted a clip of himself kissing and making sexual gestures toward a statue commemorating the tens of thousands of Korean women Japanese forces forced into sexual slavery during World War II.

While he was on trial last year, Somali tried to enter the courtroom wearing a red “MAGA” hat associated with supporters of President Donald Trump but was stopped.
During the incident, he said that “Korea is a vassal state of the United States,” drawing backlash, according to local reports. Four months later, he was seen holding a Japanese Rising Sun flag, which is viewed in South Korea as a symbol of Japanese imperialism, and making remarks that “Japan should reoccupy Korea.” He also proclaimed that “Dokdo belongs to Japan,” in reference to disputed islands that both countries claim as their own, local reports said.
Somali has repeatedly drawn controversy when he has traveled outside the U.S., including during a trip to Japan, where he taunted subway commuters about the U.S. atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki during World War II, which killed and maimed hundreds of thousands of people.
