Rep. Ilhan Omar blames ‘discrepancy’ on financial disclosures listing $30M net worth – insists she’s not a millionaire

Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar blamed an accounting “discrepancy” for errors in a financial disclosure that listed her net worth at up to $30 million – while doubling down that she is not a millionaire, a report said.

The lefty “Squad” lawmaker – facing fraud probe calls from President Trump – insisted the initial figures in a disclosure filed last May were completely off-base, as an amended filing now shows shared assets with her husband of up to just $95,000, according to The Wall Street Journal.

“The amended disclosure confirms what we’ve said all along: The congresswoman is not a millionaire,” her spokesperson, Jacklyn Rogers, told the outlet.

“The congresswoman amended her disclosures voluntarily as soon as the discrepancy was identified.”

The original disclosure signaled a striking surge in income, listing that Omar and her husband, Tim Mynett, held assets valued between $6 million and $30 million – a roughly 3,500% jump in net worth from 2023 to 2024.

The inflated figures stemmed from Mynett’s two businesses – a Santa Rosa, California-based winery and a venture capital firm headquartered in Washington, DC.

She has a point. As for me, any time I’ve tried to write $30 million, the pen always decided to write $94K instead. Damn autocorrect.

My accountant gets all his information relative to my taxes from me. That is the way accounting works. That means she and her husband gave this information to their accountants.

If not true, why did they submit false figures to their accountant? If true, why has the story changed?

“In fairness to Omar, both math and numbers are racist.”

She is Muslim. Muslims brought us our number system.

Trump was found guilty of 34 counts of Falsifying Business Records in the First Degree in May 2024.

Let's see if Eric Swalwell's numerous NDAs get the same treatment.

Islam is a religion, not a race.

Didn’t all this happen AFTER he was elected President, or am I wrong?

On May 30, 2024, a New York jury convicted Donald Trump of 34 felony counts of falsifying business records to conceal a hush-money payment to Stormy Daniels before the 2016 election. The case was prosecuted by the Manhattan District Attorney’s office, not federal “Biden prosecutors,” and was a state-level prosecution.

Manhattan District Attorney’s Office Key Details of the Case: 34 counts of first-degree falsifying business records (violating NY Penal Law 175-10), which involves intent to defraud and concealing another crime.m The counts related to invoices, checks, and ledger entries for payments made to former attorney Michael Cohen in 2017.

The case was brought by the Manhattan District Attorney’s office. While the payments were labeled as legal fees, prosecutors proved they were intended to mask a payment to Stormy Daniels, intended to influence the 2016 election.

While the payments were made in 2017, they were elevated from misdemeanors to felony charges, in part, because they were found to be linked to a violation of state election laws.

You said Muslim. A Muslim is an adherent of Islam. Again, Islam is not a race.

Omar and husband, Tim Mynett, held assets valued between $6 million-$30 million – a 3,500% jump in net worth from 2023-2024.....inflated figures stem from Mynett’s two businesses – a Santa Rosa, Ca-based winery and a venture capital firm headquartered in Washington, DC.


As Cletus D. Yokel brilliantly posted: “How many ‘Learing Centers’ did he
pump start-up money to, with the idea that USAID tax dollars would pay him back.”


And how many USAID bills did Omar vote for?

Did Mrs. Omar sign the original and "corrected" (ha ha) returns or disclosures?

One suspects that a forensic accountant (I think that the FBI could have quite a few) might just uncover crimes and them more crimes meant to paper over the original crimes.

I never said it was. Quit posting that to me.
