MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. — Dozens of official documents suggest that Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., was living with her current husband, Ahmed Abdisalan Hirsi, throughout her entire legal marriage to Ahmed Nur Said Elmi, contradicting the story she tells to explain her multiple marriages.
Omar tells her marital history in the following way:
<><> 2002: Omar married Hirsi in a Muslim faith ceremony, but never legally married.
<><> 2008: Omar and Hirsi “decided to end our relationship in our faith tradition. ”
<><> Early 2009: Omar legally married Elmi.
<><> 2011: Omar and Elmi religiously divorced.
<><> 2011: Omar and Hirsi reconciled.
<><> 2017: Omar and Elmi belatedly obtained a legal divorce.
<><> 2018: Omar and Hirsi legally married.
A paper trail of legal documents, however, undermines Omar’s claim that her marriage to Elmi, a British citizen, came during a split from Hirsi. All available evidence suggests that her legal marriage to Elmi notwithstanding, Omar has always been in marital relationship with Hirsi.
<><>Public documents, for instance, place Hirsi and Omar living in a home together in the Cedar Riverside neighborhood of Minneapolis in 2009, the year Elmi and Omar married, and two years before Omar claims she reconciled with Hirsi.
<><>In legal documents, including 24 traffic violations and misdemeanor charges against Hirsi obtained by the Washington Examiner, Hirsi listed his address at a single Cedar Riverside address consistently in 2006, 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2011. Four minor cases against Omar show that in 2007, 2009, and 2012, she listed her address at the same Cedar Riverside address.
<><> Specifically, local courts listed this address for both Omar and Hirsi in separate traffic violations in mid-2009, the year Omar and Elmi married.
<><>Local media accounts also undermine the idea that Omar and Hirsi split. A 2013 article in the Twin Cities Daily Planet says Omar and Hirsi “moved to North Dakota so that Omar could finish her bachelor’s degree in political science.” Omar began at North Dakota State University in the autumn of 2009 and completed in 2011, the years during which she was allegedly married to Elmi, both legally and religiously.
<><>A Cedar Riverside local who claims to have worked with Omar on Keith Ellison’s 2008 congressional campaign says that while he had seen Elmi around town, he had never known Omar and Elmi to be together.
<><>Earlier this month, Minnesota campaign finance officials revealed that Omar and Hirsi jointly filed their taxes together in 2014 and 2015, many years before Omar and Elmi legally divorced. Both federal and Minnesota state law expressly forbid jointly filing taxes with someone who is not a legal spouse.
<><>One confounding factor in understanding Omar’s, Hirsi’s, and Elmi’s marital history is a second address in official documents where all three have been listed as living.
<><>In February 2009, Omar and Elmi both listed their address in their marriage application as a home in Columbia Heights, Minnesota, across the river from Omar’s other address. Hirsi, however, registered a business to the Minnesota secretary of state using that as his home address just three months after Omar’s legal marriage to Elmi.
<><>Social media further complicates the picture. Under penalty of perjury, Omar wrote during divorce proceedings that she had not contacted or known the whereabouts of Elmi since the summer of 2011.
<><> She also said that she had no means of contacting him, and the district court judge wrote in the divorce decree that Elmi “has not signed a declaration of non-paternity as [Omar] has had no contact with him since before the child was conceived.”
Thus the court granted her request to serve Elmi with divorce papers “by alternate means.” Once a week, for three weeks in a row during August and September of 2017, Omar published public summons to Elmi in a local newspaper, Finance and Commerce.
<><>Contradicting this claim are images from Elmi’s social media account published by a Minnesota web outlet called Alpha News, which show Elmi with Ilwad on her day of birth. Elmi’s Instagram account was deleted before the Washington Examiner could independently verify its authenticity.
Omar declined to answer the Washington Examiner's questions on the matter, and her congressional office declined a request to speak.
LOL......good one.
Ut, oh......the IRS is a L/E agency.......they never give up.
“......legal documents obtained by the Wash/Ex show 24 traffic violations and misdemeanor charges against Hirsi .....
Yeah...that jumped out at me, too. The lawlessness of these creeps is astounding.”
That seems about average judging by records for the residents of Ferguson,MO. It was nothing for some residents there to have 50 or more outstanding moving traffic violations.
” In 2013, the municipal court in Ferguson — a city of 21,135 people — issued 32,975 arrest warrants for nonviolent offenses, mostly driving violations.”

Diddnuffins aren’t big on paying traffic tickets.
Is that “legal ecstasy “ or “legasty” or “league of sty” ?
It’s ok. She only had 4 tickets, he had 24 the voters ignored when electing her.
Try ........Law Enforcement.
Try ........Law Enforcement.
Good judgement comes from bad experiences and we have had plenty in this area and others. Someday maybe. Even blind sows find acorns but not very often.
Minn. surpassed Arkansas as the dumbest (most corrupt) state in the union

Don’t confuse Minnesota with Minneapolistan. They are two different worlds.
WCCO and The Red Star control the message with an iron fist.
Your average Minnesotan really believes everything they say.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The average Minnesotan doesn’t believe the propaganda. The people in Minneapolistan do.
Dual justice system.

I’m trying to keep the @IlhanMN story straight. She marrried her brother to evade immigration laws? Then she divorced him and illicitly filed joint tax returns with another guy years before they were married? I was prosecuted for doing far less; why hasn’t she been indicted yet?
Are you a legal natural born citizen? Do you have any money?
If the answer to either is yes you have your reason.
ONE of them put Omar in office.... :(
She’s going to use some of her freezer money on this one fail to ensue.
