Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin said that feds probing Rep. Ilhan Omar assembled a “large case” dealing with multiple people.
“This isn’t just a case that’s targeting one individual. This is a large case that we have presented to the DOJ, and the DOJ is leading the investigations,” he told Fox News on Friday.
Mullin said Homeland Security Investigations agents — who searched Omar’s Washington, DC, home on Oct. 12 — “did a lot of investigation to be able to present the case to them.”
“And I’ll just say this again: We’re enforcing our nation’s laws, and we’re going to do that. We’re not weaponizing. We’re not using political theater on this,” he added.
Authorities are probing Omar over whether the Somalia-born politician engaged in an immigration fraud conspiracy by marrying her alleged brother Ahmed Elmi, a British citizen who describes himself as gay, and whether she made false statements on government documents to gain citizenship.
The feds are also investigating her financial disclosures and whether she inflated her net worth by tens of millions of dollars in House disclosure forms.
Mullin’s comments came the same day The Post reported Omar’s surname was crossed out to replace it with “Elmi,” then put back to “Omar” on a 2009 marriage license, according to a certified copy from the Hennepin County, Minnesota, government.
When asked by MS NOW anchor Chris Hayes last week whether she married her brother, Omar answered: “Not to my knowledge.”

Rodney Dangerfield would say “Oh he’s big, BIG I tell ya! He’s so big he could have an affair with the Holland Tunnel!’’.
They won’t care.
Any Rodney Dangerfield reference makes it a good thread. 😁
