So you think Trump and “send her back” was xenophobic eh?

What if it’s predicated on fraud?

However, U.S. Congresswoman Ilhan Abdullahi Omar (D-MN) is now under scrutiny for acts she took beginning in 2009 — not 1995. In 2009, Omar was a 26-year-old U.S. citizen. She had been a U.S. citizen for nearly nine years.

Additionally, the foreign national Omar apparently helped commit fraud was not fleeing hell in 2009, either. Ahmed Nur Said Elmi was a long-time citizen of the United Kingdom. He even possessed a high school diploma from the United States: Elmi attended a St. Paul, Minnesota high school for his senior year of 2002-2003, and graduated before returning to London.

We look to 1995 not to incriminate a kid, but to answer questions about what Omar did 14 years later as an adult U.S. citizen.

Weeeellllllll now wait a second.

There are two very distinct issues here.

The first is that The Star Tribune, a Minnesota paper, has been running the story of Ilhan’s alleged fraudulent activities as an adult for quite some time.  The mainslime media including all of the national press has ignored it.  But it’s not to be ignored; the evidence is quite damning and, at this point, certainly demands a criminal investigation.  You can read the summary of it in the above link or go onto the Star Tribune’s web site and read their coverage.

Her actions post naturalization certainly appear to contain fraud on multiple levels — but that carries criminal penalties, not revocation of citizenship.  Once naturalized if you commit a crime wholly contained in the time after naturalization you are not stripped of citizenship — you’re punished instead.

So that leads to the other question — are there grounds under which Ilhan should be stripped of her citizenship and sent back?

It appears, from the above, that in fact she’s eligible for exactly that.

Discovery that a person failed to comply with any of the requirements for naturalization at the time the person became a U.S. citizen renders his or her naturalization illegally procured. This applies even if the person is innocent of any willful deception or misrepresentation. [2]

It does not matter if Ilhan was a minor and thus couldn’t legally engage in an “adult” crime.  Further, concealment of her actual identity, even if as a minor, is sufficient.  Omissions and misrepresentations that are material count.  It does not matter if the omission or misrepresentation would have necessarily precluded naturalization or admission; it’s sufficient that it had a mere tendency to sway the decision.

On the basis of the data developed thus far it appears Ilhan is not actually an Omar.  But it was the Omar family that was granted admission and ultimately, under that set of grounds, naturalization.  If in fact Ilhan is not a biological member of that family and procured entry through fraud then her status as a citizen is subject to revocation.
