The House Oversight Committee is probing “Squad” Rep. Ilhan Omar’s skyrocketing family wealth after a $9 billion Somali social services fraud scandal exploded in her district,The Post has learned.
Oversight panel Chairman Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.) said staff lawyers are exploring the extraordinary step of subpoenaing Omar’s spouse over his allegedly shady business practices.
“We’re going to get answers, whether it’s through the Ethics Committee or the Oversight Committee, one of the two,” he told The Post.
Republicans want to know how Somali-born Omar (D-Minn.) and her politically-connected husband Tim Mynett went from nearly broke to being worth up to $30 million in just a year, according to her 2024 disclosure forms.
“There are a lot of questions as to how her husband accumulated so much wealth over the past two years,” Comer said. “It’s not possible. It’s not. I’m a money guy. It’s not possible.”
Separately, federal law enforcement is also probing.
“We are investigating all politicians potentially connected to any of this [fraud] in Minnesota. You can read between the lines,” said a law enforcement source.
Unlike the Biden administration, which took no apparent action, Team Trump is “on top of it,” the source said.
The comments came as The Post learned the FBI was briefed during the Biden administration on suspicions about an array of companies run by Omar’s hubby.

Another “probe” to nowhere.
As much as I like it, the old saying about throwing rocks and living in glass houses comes to mind.
Bondi’s on it! /s
She just got too greedy, too fast, didn’t share, and invited friends to join in that aren’t part of the club. She really effed up. The rest are bad, but are part of an unspoken creedo. She got herself and her friends what I would call, “Sammie Rich”.
Selling garden seeds.
went from nearly broke to being worth up to $30 million in just a year
= = =
Well, she bought a LOT of lotto tickets.
Omar is as pristine as the blinding white Minnesota snow, just leave her be, you racists
FYI she made all of her money investing wisely in bitcoin, such a savvy Somali
Hillary was her financial counselor. Said to go “long” in cattle futures.

James Comer
Oh geeze
Ya. It IS possible.
The notion that comer was not aware? That’s actually impossible
Leave him alone. He worked double shifts at the 7-11 and his Amway side hustle really took off.
After Omar, do Pelosi.
No. This is not about investing. Look at the headlines.
“””She just got too greedy, too fast, didn’t share, and invited friends to join in that aren’t part of the club. She really effed up.”””
She, like so many others, thought there was no way Trump would win and the theft would never be investigated, especially since she is from a protected class. They all got too cocky.
Pelosi did awesome. Paulee is an awesome stock guru!
Lose-lose choice, there, and we have no others to choose from.
do MTG while they’re at it
Lets hope as the MSM always wants to say about Trump, that “The walls are closing in on Ilhan Omar”.
Maybe they should have been listening to Pelosi instead of to E.F. Hutton.
How about we stop ‘probing’ and start arresting these corrupt perps.
Round up and shackle that ridiculous dancing Mayor while we’re at it.
