Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) could be “in a lot of trouble” for allegedly steering taxpayer money toward “fraudulent schemes,” House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) said in the latest episode of “Pod Force One.”
The Kentucky Republican lauded the Trump administration’s latest efforts “to prosecute people in Minnesota” for alleged fraud and making an example out of “that Somali crime ring up there,” before suggesting Omar could eventually be a target of the crackdown.
“I do think Ilhan Omar is in a lot of trouble,” Comer told “Pod Force One” host Miranda Devine.
“You got a situation there where you look at some of the earmarks she requested for her district were for some of those fraudulent schemes,” he added.
It’s unclear which earmarks Comer was referring to.
In the wake of the Minnesota fraud scandals, Omar has drawn scrutiny for championing the 2020 MEALS Act, which eased oversight of school-meal requirements during the pandemic and set the stage for the $250 million Feeding Our Future scam.
She was also called out by Republican lawmakers earlier this year for attempting to earmark more than $1 million to a Somali-led addiction recovery organization that shares an address with a Minneapolis Somali restaurant. The earmark was removed from a broader spending package in January.

NY will nominate 2 whako lefties in 12 days. One(NY-10) is beating Goldman, a 911 lead accuser-a-hole. I’m fine with that. The other is in district 13. Another young looker similar to AOC back then is taking on the ‘establishment’ pick. Her name is Darializa Avila Chevalier. She’s even more toxic than the squad.
Nadler’s seat-the Kennedy(Schlossberg) has no chance. That’s good. Kellyanne Conway’s pig of a husband won’t win either. What I’m saying is it’s gonna be more intense next year weather we win or not.
