(Gateway Pundit): Ten years ago today… Democrat Ilhan Omar married her biological brother.
Omar won a historic victory over 44-year incumbent DFL Rep. Phyllis Kahn.
Ilhan Omar built a vast coalition of East African voters to defeat the incumbent in Minneapolis.
The liberal media forgot to mention Ilhan was married to her brother.
Power Line reported:
A reader has written us to point out that the Somali website Somalispot posted information last week suggesting Omar’s involvement in marriage and immigration fraud. The post notes that Omar married Ahmed Hirsi in 2002. Hirsi is the father of Omar’s three children. Omar is depicted with Hirsi and their children on Omar’s campaign website here.
The post further notes that Omar married her brother Ahmed Nur Said Elmi in 2009, implying that the latter marriage assisted his entry into the United States. Her brother was a British citizen. “As soon as Ilhan Omar married him,” the post continues, “he started university at her [a]lma mater North Dakota State University where he graduated in 2012. Shortly thereafter, he moved to Minneapolis where he was living in a public housing complex and was later evicted. He then returned to the United Kingdom where he now lives.”

you are the best!!
That photo is going in every blog I read.
Her story is suspicious:
2002-2008: She has 2 children with the first guy, but they never bother to “finalize the application” to become legally married. They split in 2008.
2009: Suddenly, paperwork and legal marriage are very important - she legally marries the guy from England. They split in 2011.
2012: She returns to the first guy, the “love of her life.” Now, legal marriage and paperwork aren’t important again - she doesn’t bother to divorce the second guy or legally marry this one, even after they have a 3rd child in 2012.
2017: Six years after they split, she finally divorces the second guy, but only after public criticism. She legally marries the first guy in 2018.
Yeah. The whole thing with the second guy sounds like immigration fraud, especially if he was attending college in the U.S. during their 2-year “marriage.”
Has anyone bothered to verify whether or not these "East African voters" were American citizens who were eligible to vote??
My suspicion is that this Elmi guy (the suggested brother) was a false ID situation and not the real brother. If you read through everything...this guy came to the US, attended college for the most part. It wouldn’t surprise me if there is more than one Elmi walking around.
I believe the immigration wait is longer for a sibling than a spouse. Financial support might be different, too. But, yeah, this is a really odd case and the media is showing their obvious bias by not investigating it. Bro is probably being paid to live in England and conveniently keep him out of the way lest he dim a budding star of the Democrat Party.
It’s a cultural thing.
She probably committed immigration fraud, but where’s the evidence that the two are brother and sister?
There have been a couple investigations by independent journalists in Minnesota. There is way too much smoke for their not to be some fire here. Somalis are famous for immigration fraud. It’s practically the national pastime there.
2009: Suddenly, paperwork and legal marriage are very important - she legally marries the guy from England. They split in 2011.
Has all the signs of classic visa fraud. Somebody paid her to “marry” this guy. This is an ambitious women and fits her personality.
HA HA My pleasure:)
You have a skill.
Thank you sir:) It has gotten me into a little bit of trouble in the past but it has definitely been worth it:)
