‘Case closed’: New evidence Ilhan Omar married her brother

from WND:


Likely ‘the most extensive spree of felonies by a congressperson in U.S. history’


The evidence uncovered over the past several years that U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., married her brother in an immigration-fraud scheme has been compelling.


But now investigative reporter David Steinberg believes the case is closed, presenting new evidence that her father and the father of her former husband are one and the same.



The new evidence surfaced, Steinberg wrote for The Blaze, when Omar’s father died in June from complications from a COVID-19 infection and condolences came from the Somali immigrant community of Minneapolis and around the world.


Steinberg explained that when Omar’s father arrived in the United States in 1995, he claimed to be “Nur Omar Mohamed” and received a Social Security number with that name. Steinberg previously reported that Ilhan and some members of her family entered the U.S. fraudulently as members of another family that had been granted asylum, the Omars. The congresswoman’s name at birth was Ilhan Nur Said Elmi.


Among the many messages of condolence from family, friends and others are dozens that identify her father as Nur Said Elmi. The man to whom Omar was married from 2009 to 2017 was Ahmed Nur Said Elmi, who maintained his name as one of three siblings who was granted asylum by the United Kingdom.


Steinberg concludes that Omar “has almost certainly committed the most extensive spree of felonies by a congressperson in U.S. history.”


“As a criminal, she also appears to be historically inept. Scores of verified items of evidence against her are in the public record. Omar has never challenged their authenticity and has never produced a single piece of evidence to support her version of events.”


Among the charges that could be brought against Omar as she seeks re-election this fall are for immigration, education and federal student loan fraud. She also, records show, filed at least two years of fraudulent tax returns and possibly eight.


“She likely received subsidized health care and child care during this time. For eight years, every application she signed for state and federal aid was likely fraudulent,” he wrote. “During her 2017 divorce from Ahmed Nur Said Elmi, Ilhan submitted a nine-question statement to the court signed under penalty of perjury. Literally — she signed just below the statement of acknowledgment. Eight of her nine answers appear to be perjurious. Each instance is punishable by up to five years’ imprisonment.”


Another potential scandal has emerged recently with the disclosure that Omar’s campaign has disbursed $1.6 million during this election cycle to the consulting firm of her new husband, Tim Mynett.


Omar has insisted the charge that she married her brother is a “disgusting lie.”
