Ilhan Omar is claiming the $30 million “error” on her congressional financial disclosures was a simple mistake — but lawmakers aren’t buying it.
They point to the Democratic firebrand and her current husband’s curious history of making money conveniently appear and disappear when it suits them, at least on paper.
House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-Ky.) said Omar could be hit with felony charges if she is found to have lied about the cash.
Minnesota Rep. Omar’s financial disclosures for 2024, filed last year, initially valued her husband Tim Mynett’s businesses at between $6 million and $30 million.
This week Omar claimed she and Mynett’s net worth wasn’t actually tens of millions of dollars after all, and they actually have less than $100,000 combined, according to a report in the Wall Street Journal.
Omar’s office told the newspaper valuations of Mynett’s companies — a winery in California and venture capital firm registered in Delaware — were made in error, and blamed their accountant.
When asked about the discrepancies by a Lindell TV reporter Wednesday, Omar retorted: “I think you’re stupid for asking me anything. I don’t want to tell you jack s---. How about that?”

Throw both of those African pirates in prison. They are criminals.
How in the hell has she not been audited by the IRS? As a small business owner I sweat homedepot receipts and worry about a 10k swing in income from one year....
....meanwhile
At the bare minimum she should be undergoing a severe audit and the results of that alone should have her in handcuffs.
Immigration and fraud crimes aside.
I assume people in congress are immune from audits.
Where are the predawn SWAT raids?
Where are the arrests?
This burgeoning, volcanic mountain of evidence against hundreds of high profile deep state operatives and no warrants, no raids, no indictments, no arrests.
The things only democrats can get away with some see some won’t look.

Message: In May of last year, Omar (Dem-Minn.) filed an official govt report affirming that she and her husband, Tim Mynett, held assets worth between $6-$30 million. However, the WSJ reported her amended filing put the couple’s wealth at between $18,004-$95,000. Omar said her May Congressional filing was riddled with accounting errors.
A Congressperson who files false financial disclosure forms face severe penalties,
including prison time, substantial fines..........and the loss of their seats through expulsion.
Under the “Ethics in Government Act,” knowingly and willfully falsifying
or failing to file reports can lead to civil penalties.
Falsifying official financial reports can lead to charges of making
false statements, which can result in imprisonment for up to 5 years.
The US Attorney General may pursue civil or criminal penalties based on referrals from the House Ethics Committee or other authorities. While some errors are corrected with amended reports, “knowing and willful” false reporting triggers the severe penalties described.
this is a great report, PJ2!
excerpt:
“The second problem is timing. The amended disclosure revealed, for the first time, that Mynett had received $213,200 in distributions from Rose Lake Capital during 2024 — a year in which, according to the amendment, Rose Lake Capital had zero net equity. Distributions from a company with zero net equity come from somewhere. That somewhere is borrowed money, meaning someone loaned Rose Lake Capital the funds that were then distributed to Mynett personally. Who loaned those funds, on what terms, and where the money originated are exactly the questions the House Oversight subpoena is demanding answers to.”
QUESTION: did Mynett report this 213,000 distribution as income to the IRS? think - capone?
"There are two problems with this explanation. The first is mathematical. For liabilities large enough to zero out a seven-point-nine million dollar gross valuation on Rose Lake Capital, those liabilities would need to be in the millions of dollars. A company with forty-two dollars in its bank account does not accidentally accumulate millions in undisclosed debt that its accountant simply overlooks. Liabilities of that magnitude appear in every financial document a company possesses: bank statements recording loan proceeds received, promissory notes establishing the debt, correspondence with lenders setting repayment terms. No competent accountant reviews an LLC's books to establish a multi-million-dollar asset value while simultaneously failing to notice multi-million-dollar liabilities in the same documents.
And the sooner the better.
I cannot argue with your assessment.
With apologies to Andrew Lloyd Weber:
When the money keeps rolling out
You don’t keep books
You can tell you’ve done well
By the happy grateful looks
Accountants only slow things down
Figures get in the way
Never been a lady loved as much as Ilhan Omar
Not too shabby there, Thanks much.
And let’s note the serendipity of uncovering this nefariousness. IOW, it is probably a widespread “game.”
“Omar’s office told the newspaper valuations of Mynett’s companies — a winery in California and venture capital firm registered in Delaware — were made in error, and blamed their accountant.”
This should not be hard or take all this time. Omar blames it on her accountant, so get his name and have an FBI agent or investigator for the Committee interview him/her under oath.
1) Did you prepare the financials for the 2024 report?
2) Walk us through how you came up with the 2024 numbers.
3) Did anyone try to influence your valuations? Who? When? Which ones? Their arguments?
4) Did anyone change your proposed valuations before submitting the report? Who? When? Which items? What reasons did they give?
5) For the recently revised figures, same questions.
6) Have a competent person derive what the numbers should have been.
Perhaps the original figure included the value of assets that husband was launderi...er, managing, for clients. The reporting range is $6 million to $30 million, it wouldn’t take but a few Learing Centers and fake hospice operators, who steered their assets to Omar’s spouse expecting favors/protection from the Congresswoman.
She wants to be expelled from congress and deported. She is the poster child of the martyr religion.
Once back in Somalia, her thieving husband will join her to live a life of luxury, away from the prying eyes of Americans and untouchable by the law.
EC
Bring charges and prosecute!
What nonsense. The Spirit Of Bondi is still in charge and nobody but low level pawns need fear.
Only arrests matter.
Sounds like a perfect campaign quote --- for her opposition. How could anyone vote for a politician who said that?
I think her brother was actually her second husband, not sure. Hard to keep track of the little horndog.
No matter what, she’s a criminal, and should be sent packing back to Somalia today.
Media/others: We know this, so where are the charges already?!?
She’s the prime example of low IQ.
