Rep. Ilhan Omar insisted she’ll keep voting in Minnesota as feds probe her immigration history, brushing off questions about whether the investigation could threaten her US citizenship. Omar spoke briefly after casting her ballot in Minnesota, where she’s up for reelection amid a federal immigration probe into whether she married her brother, lied about her birthday and has been living under an alias. Asked by reporters whether this would be her last time being able to vote, Omar defiantly shot back: “No, and I’ll continue to vote.” The congresswoman then hurried away from reporters and said federal officials haven’t told...

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) has denied allegations this week she fraudulently married second husband and alleged brother Ahmed Elmi — but when asked if they were related, cautiously replied “not to my knowledge.” The Minnesota congresswoman, who arrived in the US as a refugee from Somalia in 1995, has vehemently denied allegations she married Elmi for immigration purposes. But significant evidence has emerged which continues to fuel speculation that is not the case: Clue 1: The marriage certificate Omar, 45, legally married Elmi, 41, who she described as a British citizen, in the US in 2009 and they divorced in...

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) on Wednesday called allegations that she married her brother “insane” – but didn’t entirely close the door to the possibility of being related to her ex-husband. “Not to my knowledge,” Omar responded, when asked by MS NOW’s Chris Hayes if there was any “weird kernel of truth” to the claim that she wed her brother. The decade-old allegations that Omar and her ex, Ahmed Nur Said Elmi, got hitched in a failed effort to get him a green card originated on a “Somali blog,” and spread when “right-wing conspiracy theorists” latched onto it, Omar explained in...

A raid on controversial Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar’s Washington, DC, home signifies law enforcement has already amassed compelling evidence of criminal activity and are nearing the end of a long investigation, a source told The Post. The most likely scenario, multiple people claimed, is that immigration cops are looking into a long-floated rumor that Omar is actually one year older than she has long claimed to be — a tiny detail that may put her citizenship in jeopardy. “The big picture here is a federal judge in Washington, DC, signed off on a search warrant. That means there’s probable cause...

Oh, brother! Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar’s marriage to her alleged brother won’t get her kicked out of the US, but other matters in her immigration file might, sources told The Post. In 2009, Omar wed self-described ‘dirty dandy’ Ahmed Elmi, a UK national long rumored to be her brother. But the federal probe into Somalia-born Omar’s past is more likely to focus on how she became as US citizen as a teenager and paperwork filed by her father. The father, Nur Said Mohamed Elmi was long identified as an “educator” before his death in 2020, at which point his military...

An upstate House candidate pontificated about the Epstein files and a would-be politician’s assault scandal – despite hitting the campaign trail alongside his registered sex offender brother-in-law, The Post has learned. Democrat Aaron Gies, who’s looking to unseat two-term Republican Rep. Nick Langworthy, was assisted by his brother-in-law Christopher Nathan White, a former North Carolina teacher convicted on rape and sex offense charges involving two teen students – who allegedly shot video at a winter “Polar Plunge” event. “He was there,” Gies told The Post Sunday of the campaign plunge event that unfolded Dec. 26, 2025. “Chris is not part...

Scandal-scarred Rep. Ilhan Omar and her hubby have gone from the penthouse to the poorhouse. The husband of the Minnesota “Squad” firebrand — who once valued his venture capital and wine empire at up to $30 million — now claims to be pocketing as little as $200 a year. The embattled socialist claimed hubby Tim Mynett made no income last year from his main business, Rose Lake Capital, according to her newly released 2025 financial disclosure report. The only money Mynett — who has nearly two decades of experience in DC — earned last year is a meager $200 to...

Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., refused to respond to a request from a Minnesota committee seeking more information on her ties to the massive fraud scandal in the state, prompting a failed subpoena vote on Tuesday, but the committee’s chair says more options exist. The subpoena, which required a two-thirds committee vote in favor to pass, only got five out of the six votes needed despite the committee's Republican majority. "We have reached out to Representative Ilhan Omar on multiple occasions, inviting her to testify and inviting and requesting documents," State Rep. Kristin Robbins, chair of the House Fraud Prevention and...

Ilhan Omar (MN-05).It was revealed at the time that her husband, purported venture capitalist Tim Mynett, "went from nearly broke to being worth up to $30 million in just a year, according to her 2024 disclosure forms."Specifically, Comer noted that "There are a lot of questions as to how her husband accumulated so much wealth over the past two years. It’s not possible. It’s not. I’m a money guy....

Silicon Valley’s AI chatbots contend with supreme confidence that Ilhan Omar did not marry her brother, ignoring strong evidence to the contrary, our Alana Goodman reports. As the long-running allegations receive fresh attention from Donald Trump, leading AI platforms like OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Anthropic’s Claude, Perplexity, and Google’s Gemini are dismissing them as “debunked” conspiracy theories. The posture of the chatbots reveals the bias of their mainstream media sources and a new frontier in the information wars. Some journalists, just not the ones the chatbots are relying on, have reported extensively on the overlap between Omar’s 2009 marriage—conducted by a priest—to...

House Republicans are escalating scrutiny of Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) after Oversight Committee members moved to seek immigration records connected to long-standing allegations surrounding her second marriage. Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) confirmed this week that lawmakers are pursuing subpoenas related to Omar’s immigration history and that of her former spouse, amid claims that the marriage may have been entered into for immigration purposes. “Federal marriage fraud and knowingly entering a marriage to evade immigration laws is a serious felony punishable by prison time, steep fines, denaturalization, and deportation,” Mace said in a statement. “Marrying a sibling is illegal in every...

EXCLUSIVE: Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., called those concerned about whether she married her brother "sick" after the far-left lawmaker was approached by Fox News Digital about border czar Tom Homan, signaling that federal officials have started digging into records pertaining to the matter. Homan said last week that records and files related to Omar's potential immigration fraud were being pulled and looked at after President Donald Trump revived the years-old scandal amid an ongoing debate over the Somali Medicaid fraud scandal taking place in Omar's state of Minnesota. While Homan suggested that fraud likely took place, he also signaled that...

President Donald Trump blasted Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) during his speech in Pennsylvania on Wednesday for “always complaining,” alleging that she married her brother and is in the United States illegally. “I love this Ilhan Omar, whatever the hell her name is, with a little… turban. I love her. She comes in, does nothing but b*****. She’s always complaining,” Trump said. He went on to hammer her country of origin, Somalia, amid evidence of embezzlement, migration fraud, and welfare cheating in Minnesota by Somali migrants. “She comes from her country where, I mean, it’s considered about the worst country in...

Cain and Abel, meet David and Daniel. Ex-New York Gov. David Paterson is accusing his brother of cheating him out of his inheritance — by allegedly tricking their elderly mother into giving him over $7 million before her death. A bombshell lawsuit filed by the former governor claims his younger brother Daniel Paterson, 67, duped mom Portia into transferring the massive sum from her estate to his account through “undue influence, coercion and excessive persuasion.” The sneaky move allowed Daniel and his attorney wife Eloise to bypass a long-standing will ordering the brothers to split their mom’s estate 50-50 —...

The White House doctor who previously gave now former President Joe Biden a clean bill of health is a longtime family friend — as speculation of a cover-up over his new cancer diagnosis continues to ramp up. Dr. Kevin O’Connor served as the 82-year-old’s official physician during his White House stint — and repeatedly insisted for years that Biden was in top mental shape despite his obvious cognitive decline. Now, in the wake of Biden’s prostate cancer diagnosis, O’Connor’s longstanding relationship with the Biden clan has come under renewed scrutiny. The physician also has business ties to Biden’s young brother,...

The younger brother of Parkland school shooter Nikolas Cruz was busted in Virginia after trying to break into three different schools, according to police. Zachary Cruz, 24, was caught on security cameras at the schools “peering inside, indicating efforts to gain unauthorized access,” according to the Augusta County Sheriff’s Office. He allegedly attempted to get into the Wilson Middle School, Wilson High School, and the Valley Career and Technical Center late on Jan. 25, and was arrested “without incident” last Tuesday. The younger brother of the Florida school shooter — who massacred 17 people in 2018 — was charged with...
