he facts describe perhaps the most extensive spree of illegal misconduct committed by a House member in American history.
On October 22, 2008, the U.S. State Department stopped accepting applications for the Priority 3/Refugee Family Reunification program — the process by which refugees can apply for asylum if one family member is already a legal U.S. resident. State halted the program because DNA testing — primarily of Somalis — had concluded that perhaps 87 percent of applicants were fraudulently claiming family relationships.
Despite continuing war, Somalia of 2008 was not comparable to the open hell of the early 1990s, when an eight-year-old Ilhan and her family fled to Kenya’s Dadaab refugee camps. She lived there from 1991 until 1995, aged eight to 12. Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Services then helped Ilhan, her sister Sahra, and their father Nur Said receive asylum in the United States along with thousands of other Somalis.
The complicated moral question of fraud, let alone fault, among this 1990s wave of refugees escaping civil war will never be answered with accurate statistics. We will have to settle for adjectives like “widespread” and “rampant.” Yet the negative outcomes cannot be ignored. Even refugees with strong desire to assimilate with Western civic order are hampered by the possible discovery of conflicting documents. And compromising information becomes leverage in a community already difficult to police.

It only takes a 2/3 vote of the House to expel her for marriage and tax fraud, among other likely crimes. They don’t have to wait for a conviction even, because other than treason (which may also apply) the constitution gives Congress leeway to determine what the standard is.
But it would be a shame for the Democrat’s leading hole-digger to be retired early, so I hope there are enough Republicans to block any such effort. Then the Dems will be forced to endure her “help” til the next election and maybe the dummies of Little Mogadishu will re-elect her!

THIS IS WORTHY OF EVERYONE EMAILING TO THE REPS AND SENATORS just to let them know we are on to them....
Following the 2015 San Bernardino Muslim terrorist massacre, the 2017 MINN House overwhelmingly
passed legislation to ensure terrorists could not benefit from taking out life insurance policies.
State Rep. Ilhan Omar (now in Cingress) was one of just two members who voted against it.

A partial way out of the quagmire Pelosi finds herself in ... but Republicans would need to help out (which is not beyond belief they would do so ... y’know, “reach across the aisle”.)
I read all that and am still confused.
Did she marry her nephew, her brother, or someone who just claimed to be her brother to get in the US.
(H/T Minnesota Sun)
Obama’s U.S. Department of State (DOS) discovered widespread Somali fraud in Minnessota in one of its largest programs for admissions to America, the so-called P-3 family reunification program.
First revealed by Miriam Jordan writing at TheWall Street Journal, the DOS learned that as many as 30,000 Somalis had entered America under the false pretense of “family members,” but were later determined through random DNA testing to have used the program fraudulently.
Large numbers of Somali refugee family members were found to not be biologically related at all. Under the scandal, Somali “relatives” were continuously being “found” and joining their “family” in the U.S. As Frontlinereported in 2015, they were making up “ghost children.”
The degree of the fraud shocked the outgoing Bush Administration and as President Barack Obama took charge of the DOS, it had no choice but to suspend the program indefinitely. From 2008-2012, family reunification from Somalia, and other east African countries, was closed.
However, no effort was made by the Obama administration’s immigration officials to discover and remove those found to have committed immigration fraud. There is no evidence to date that Omar’s family participated in the widespread practice.
Indeed, when allegations surfaced in 2016 about Omar’s questionable marriage, then Minnesota U.S. Attorney Andrew Lugar, an Obama appointee, refused to investigate, andcorrected local affiliate KMSP Fox 9 for reporting that he did.
“U.S. Attorney Andy Luger says he did not ask U.S. Immigration & Customs (ICE) to investigate the immigration status of legislative candidate Ilhan Omar,” Fox 9 reported.
But now, under a new Republican administration, the DOJ and Attorney General Jeff Sessions have reopened investigations into fraudulent immigration, which, if the allegations against her are true, Omar could be tied up in.
In Nov. 2017, for instance, the DOJ revoked the citizenship of four Somalians living in Minnesota who had lied on their visa applications.
“The current immigration system is easily abused by fraudsters and nefarious actors, and that’s certainly true of the Diversity Immigrant Visa Program,” Sessions said at the time. “If the fraud is not detected and swift enforcement actions are not taken, chain migration only multiplies the consequences of this abuse.”
Thanks. BUMP!

It’s not just Somalian’s doing this. My ex-SIL brought her sister in from Mexico with false birth certificate as her daughter. Documents from Shiite hole countries aren’t even good for tp.
(I, for one, wouldn't DARE touch her)!
I am thinking she married her nephew which is why she keeps saying she didn’t marry her brother.
daily mail points out that Elmis claim he doesn’t know Ilhan Omar
they are trying to do a massive cover up
The article is saying brother. I’ve read Omar said she is the youngest of seven and her mother died when she was two. But brother Elmi is 3 years younger. Sister sahra says five siblings. Yeah... Confusing.
both these offices have contact forms:
The Office of Congressional Ethics (OCE) of the U.S. House of Representatives is an independent, non-partisan entity charged with reviewing allegations of misconduct against Members, officers, and staff of the U.S. House of Representatives and, when appropriate, referring matters to the House Committee on Ethics.

Trump probably knew all her felonious activities. But rather than just coming out with it, why not first attach her to her three wacko fellow congresswomen, and then to the whole democrat party? Brilliant!
Some state laws govern “fraudulent practices,” it’s a third-degree felony to “knowingly and willfully ... make or use any false document, knowing the same to contain any false, fictitious, or fraudulent statement or entry” connected to the Department of State. While the fraud statute is not contained in the state’s election code, it relates to the 2018 election because the affidavit in question concerned the elections division, which falls under the Department of State.
===========================
Keep in mind...falsifying official documents is the preferred criminal method to cover-up larger crimes.
REFERENCE--Falsifying Government Documents. involves altering, changing, or modifying a document for the purpose of deception.......can also involve forgery and/or passing copies of false documents. Falsifying documents is usually done in connection with broader criminal aims, such as extortion, government fraud, tax evasion, money laundering, financing terrorism........
Types of documents commonly falsified may include:
◾Tax returns and income statements
◾Personal checks
◾Bank account records
◾Business record keeping books
◾Immigration documents (such as visas, passports, etc.)
◾Identification cards and birth certificates
Many different types of acts can be considered as falsifying a document, including:
◾Altering or misrepresenting factual information such as prices or monetary amounts
◾Stating false information when requested to provide truthful statements
◾Forging a signature
◾Using official letterheads without authorization
◾Concealing assets or property WRT obtaining federal/state grants))
◾Knowingly using or distributing a fake document
A person can only be held criminally liable if they are deliberately acting with the intention of deceiving or defrauding another party.
Falsifying documents is a very serious offense and is generally classified as a felony. This means that a person charged with falsifying documents may be subject to the following legal penalties:
◾Having to pay a monetary fine
◾Incarceration in a prison facility
Depending on the gravity of the offense, as well as individual state laws, falsifying documents can result in a prison sentence of 5-10 years. Also, if government documents or authorities were involved, the legal penalties may be more severe. ..... legal penalties may increase with repeat offenses.
What happened to the Somalian Marine that was in-country during the Black Hawk Down Mission that was decorated, discharged, and returned to take over his father’s position as a War Lord? Can’t remember his name.
I am not sure if 'partial' is applicable here.
If Pelosi has really had enough of these four then she should take Omar out based on this. Ideally she would work behind the scenes and have some other Democrats do the heavy lifting, before the DOJ actually steps in.
Once Omar is out, she then sits each of the three down to one-on-one discussions:
You want to play the game? You play it my way.
I have no idea how I stumbled on this, but the Office of Refugee Resettlement is supposed to file an annual report to Congress. Notice the gap (left hand side of page).
