FBI Takes Over Ilhan Omar Spraying Probe
Newsmax ^ | January 28, 2026 | Charlie McCarthy

The FBI has reportedly taken the lead in the criminal investigation into Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., being sprayed with a liquid while she spoke at a town hall meeting.

According to the Minnesota Star Tribune, federal authorities assumed control of the probe after the Tuesday incident at Urban League headquarters in north Minneapolis, where Omar was interrupted mid-speech by a man who allegedly sprayed her with a substance from a syringe.

Minneapolis police spokesman Trevor Folke confirmed Wednesday that the FBI is now leading the case, signaling the likelihood of federal charges.

The suspect, identified as 55-year-old Anthony James Kazmierczak of Minneapolis, remained jailed in Hennepin County one day after the incident.

He was initially booked on suspicion of third-degree assault, but officials now anticipate charges could be filed in federal court given the FBI’s involvement.

The U.S. Capitol Police, which investigates threats against members of Congress, said it is working with federal partners "to see this man faces the most serious charges possible to deter this kind of violence in our society."

New details have also emerged about the substance used.

Alpha News reporter Liz Collin said on X that sources confirmed the liquid was apple cider vinegar and that a hazardous materials team verified it posed no chemical threat.

Maybe the FBI will take over the Butler Pennsylvania attempted assassination of DJT and tell us who the hell the shooter was, and who was he talking to immediately before he shot Trump.

I’m sure that she will refuse to press charges and won’t testify.

..sources confirmed the liquid was apple cider vinegar and that a hazardous
materials team verified it posed no chemical threat.

Might have been painful in the eyeballs but it was a happy happenstance the
perp sprayed the 'victim' on it's arm.

Sergeant Friday and/or Officer Gannon could handle this one in about five minutes, after gathering just a little forensic evidence.

Since it's the FBI doing it, we ought to have all the story in maybe a week.

I believe that is why the FBI took over the case. Criminal charges will be filed with a very long sentence. He will flip and implicate Omar and gang in staging the false flag. Those charges will get very interesting.

I recommend Ilhan take her money and run to Somalia where she belongs.

Watch the video carefully, and note how Omar:

1) looks directly at the attacker and nods just before he lunges forward.
2) shows no concern about the liquid
3) instead of trying to avoid the liquid, she goes after the man who sprayed her.

If you were sprayed with a liquid and had no idea it was harmless, wouldn’t you rush to find a bathroom to wash off the liquid or seek some kind of help to neutralize the liquid? This is just Jussie Smollett all over again.
