Ilhan Omar doubles down on ‘real name’ when confronted at Mall of Somalia
Fox News ^ | 10/23/26 | Hannah Brennan

Posted on 10/24/2026 1:54:51 AM PDT by Libloather

Rep. Ilhan Omar told Fox News Digital that her "real name" is "Ilhan Abdullahi Omar" after a federal court filing identified the congresswoman by a last name matching that of her ex-husband, whom reports have alleged is her brother.

"Ilhan Abdullahi Omar, you know it," Omar told Fox News Digital when asked about her name. "It’s Ilhan Abdullahi Omar."

Omar was spotted by Fox News Digital at the Karmel Mall of Somalia in Minnesota as she made her way into the Karmel Masjid, inside the mall, for Friday prayers.

Her comments come after two people familiar with the ongoing investigation into the Somali-born congresswoman, including a law enforcement source, said that her real name is Ilhan Nur Said Elmi. The last name is the same as her ex-husband, Ahmed Nur Said Elmi, who is alleged to be her brother.

Federal prosecutors referred to the Minnesota Democrat as "Ilhan Nur Said Elmi, a/k/a Ilhan Abdullahi Omar," in a Wednesday filing in D.C. federal court, as first reported by Fox News Digital. One source said the language used for her name in the filing reflected the evidence that has so far been compiled in the immigration fraud investigation.

One source disputed Omar’s account of her name, telling Fox News Digital, ‘That’s not her real name.’

U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro filed a motion on Wednesday seeking to prevent the federal search warrant for the congresswoman’s home from being unsealed, which was requested by several media outlets. The motion says the federal government is not yet finished executing the search warrant, and that it shouldn’t be unsealed yet.

The Muslim is permitted to lie to those who are not believers in Islam.

I don’t know. It is sad that many Americans have not been educated about the wicked ways of Islam. I guess it’s expected because I was taught NOTHING about Islam in all of my years of being “educated”. Fortunately I was curious and learned on my own through reading (most of it on the internet), and being exposed to very knowledgeable people writing and speaking about it.

She hasn’t made a statement under oath and it’s not a crime to lie to the media since they lie to us a lot. That being said, she should be gone. Not holding my breath on that.

You laugh, but I understand the Waffle fries at the Orange Saladin stand in the food court are exceptional.

If you can decide your own gender, you can certainly expect to decide any name you like in this country.

It’s all a scam.

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) herself previously stated that she received her American citizenship through her father, whom she said became a naturalized citizen while she was still a legal minor. But a Trump administration investigation indicates that her father might never have obtained naturalization officially, making her citizenship likewise suspect.

People need to make a dance-mix video of her doing this. The left is right about at least one thing - it is hard to fight mockery.

Omar Elmi figured no one would ever to bother looking into the fraud she and her family committed - including marrying her own brother so he could get a green card (he withdrew the application when asked for more information).

And, as long as Democrats were in power, no one ever did.

I expect if Dems take congress, they'll find a way to shut down the investigation.
