Democratic “squad” Rep. Ilhan Omar needs to be investigated for filing “misleading disclosures” to Congress regarding her husband’s $30 million net worth, according to a government watchdog. The National Legal and Policy Center, a conservative nonprofit based in Virginia, wants the Office of Congressional Conduct to “immediately” investigate Omar’s disclosures which showed her third husband Tim Mynett’s assets explode in worth from 2023 to 2024, according to the complaint. According to paperwork she filed to Congress, Mynett went from being worth just over $51,000 one year to nearly $30 million the next. “The information in Omar’s financial disclosures, and her...

The democrat party is old. It is a fact. Nancy Pelosi is 85 and although she is retired she still talks a lot and clearly wields some clout when not seeming drunk. Chuck Schumer is 75 years old and more and more frail in appearance. At 78 Jerry Nadler routinely falls asleep in hearings. Barack Obama says the democrat party is just too old. So, who comes next? Hakeem JeffriesHakeem Jeffries has a weird sounding voice. That might be why people have never really taken to him, and he cannot establish a gravitas about himself. I can't take him seriously....

Sen. Adam Schiff (D-Calif) went on ABC's "This Week" program and warned that "requiring voters to show IDs in order to cast a ballot will subvert the kind of democracy our Party has carefully crafted over the past two generations. It would limit each voter to one ballot per election. Given the seriousness of the Republican threat to turn America into a fascist dictatorship we need as many votes as possible from as many people as possible to cast ballots against this threat." ABC's Jon Karl asked: "But in one recent Pew poll, 83% of adults support requiring photo ID...

The probe of “Squad” Rep. Ilhan Omar’s (D-Minn.) husband Tim Mynett and his shady business ventures could go global. House Oversight Chairman Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.) wants the House Ethics Committee to look beyond the US at Mynett’s failed business ventures and include places such as Somalia, Kenya and the United Arab Emirates. Mynett’s investment firm Rose Lake Capital wanted to build solar panels in Africa and his main business partner received a $10,699 air ticket to Dubai after talks about a deal there, The Post has reported.

The Minneapolis businesses that exploit illegal migrants should be compensated by ordinary Americans for economic losses amid the federal enforcement of popular immigration and civil rights laws, according to Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz.“They left us with economic ruin,” Walz complained after White House advisor Tom Homan said on Thursday that he is withdrawing most ICE officers after arresting more than 4,000 illegal migrants in Minneapolis. (snip) “Many Minnesota businesses – especially small businesses — are facing economic hardships that may prove insurmountable” because of the federal enforcement, said Matt Varilek, an economic development manager for Walz.

Squad member and Democratic New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is expected to share her thoughts on American foreign policy with a global audience at the Munich Security Conference this weekend, her office said. The Democrat is expected to speak on two panels at the German conference, her office told NBC News, one about the “rise of populism,” and another about the “future of U.S. foreign policy." The lawmaker, who is considered a potential presidential contender in 2028, is expected to present a contrasting vision of American foreign policy to that of President Donald Trump. “It’s very important that they see...

Ilhan Omar after [she] suggested that President Trump is a pedophile — and should be executed.Omar (D-Minn.), ***threw the demented tantrum after Trump appeared on Fox Business to discuss fraud in her home state of Minnesota, in which he claimed that the theft exceeds $19 billion. “The leader of the Pedophile Protection Party is trying to deflect attention from his name being all over the Epstein files,” she wrote on X, alongside a clip of the interview, in which Trump also criticized her. “At least in Somalia they execute pedophiles not elect them.”Comer (R-Ky.)...

Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar posted on X to suggest that President Donald Trump should be executed. She shared a clip of an interview with Trump on Fox News with the caption "The leader of the Pedophile Protection Party is trying to deflect attention from his name being all over the Epstein files. At least in Somalia they execute pedophiles not elect them." In the video, Trump was asked about the rampant fraud in the Somali community in Minnesota, which has been the subject of DOJ investigations going back into the Biden administration. Dozens have been arrested and convicted, including primarily...

President Donald Trump and his party might hate Somalia ... but, at least Somalia executes pedophiles there instead of electing them -- so says Rep. Ilhan Omar. The Democratic Congresswoman from Minnesota took to social media, apparently to express her frustration with POTUS, after Trump badmouthed the country where she was born in a Tuesday night Fox Business interview ... in which he claimed Somali immigrants are damaging the state.

Firebrand Rep. Jasmine Crockett’s Senate campaign is having issues with her stance on the issues. Two months into her long-shot bid for statewide office, the Texas Dem’s website was found riddled with multiple faux pas, including instructions to “write out your bullet points here” in the mental health section of her campaign platform and a bizarre inclusion of gun control policy on her Social Security page. Crockett had just launched a series of policy pages last week. Both gaffes have since been fixed. The campaign website blunders were first flagged by a senior CNN reporter, Edward-Isaac Dovere, who spotted the...

Besides scrutiny from the feds, Rep. Ilhan Omar’s husband’s winery could land the embattled power couple in hot water with imams too. Political consultant Tim Mynett converted to Islam to marry Omar, a practicing Muslim — but selling booze is strictly banned in Islamic law, which considers anything to do with alcohol sinful — or “haram.” “I assure you that they got married in accordance with Islam and the law, and Ilhan’s husband converted to Islam,” a spokesperson for Omar’s office told BBC Somalia at the time of the 2020 wedding. It was Mynett’s California-based wine company eStCru, together with...

You love to see it happen. The lawless mob that Minnesota Governor Tim Walz has emboldened was literally at his door, making demands Friday night. The crowd called on Walz to fight back against ICE and the Trump administration and to legalize all illegal aliens.Leftists outside the Minnesota governor’s mansion have turned on Tim Walz for not being radical enough:“We are demanding legalization for all. We hope this is the moment you finally grow a pair!"Tim has tried so hard to please them lmao https://t.co/MTpJz7WN9t— Western Lensman (@WesternLensman) February 7, 2026

It's a roughly 6-7 minute video summarizing recent congressional testimony. Republican state representative Kristin Robbins (chair of Minnesota's House Fraud Prevention Committee) testified before a Senate Judiciary Subcommittee about large-scale fraud in Minnesota's public assistance programs, particularly: Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP) — fraud dating back to 2011, escalating under Gov. Tim Walz's administration, with millions allegedly funneled as cash to Somalia (some reports linking it to terrorism funding via groups like Al-Shabaab). Feeding Our Future nutrition program scandal — enabled by pandemic-era waivers (including the "Meals Act" tied to Rep. Ilhan Omar in 2020), involving fake meal claims for...

Ilhan Omar has been hit by claims she faked her own attack after Donald Trump declared 'she probably had herself sprayed.' The Minnesota Democratic Representative, 43, was doused with an unknown vinegar-smelling liquid from a syringe during a town hall event in Minneapolis on Tuesday. Anthony Kazmierczak, 55 - a Trump supporter who has previously posted anti-Omar comments on social media - was charged with third-degree assault. But Omar's actions during the attack have sparked theories it was staged, with online sleuths pointing to two supposed inconsistencies. The first is that the congresswoman's immediate response to the liquid being sprayed...

President Donald Trump, reacting sight unseen to breaking news that Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., had been sprayed with what the media described as a "liquid" that appeared urine-colored, claimed the incident was staged. That very narrative has been viral by conservatives on social media Tuesday night and into Wednesday morning, but Trump was asked about the incident shortly after the news broke and before he had seen it. "No. I don't think about her; I think she's a fraud; I really don't think about that: She probably had herself sprayed, knowing her," Trump told an ABC News reporter. "I haven't...

President Trump derided Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) as a “fraud” Tuesday night before suggesting the lawmaker arranged an attack in which she was sprayed with an unknown substance by an audience member during a town hall event. “I don’t think about her. I think she’s a fraud,” Trump, who has previously called for Omar to be either jailed or deported, told ABC News when asked if he had seen video of the incident. “She probably had herself sprayed, knowing her. “I haven’t seen it. No, no. I hope I don’t have to bother,” he added.

An attack on Minnesota Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar at a town hall late Tuesday drew condemnation from both sides of the political aisle — but also drew plenty of questions from social media users, who questioned several odd details regarding the attack. Notably, many raised suspicions about the legitimacy of the liquid attack based on the fact that Omar refused to seek treatment or get checked out, and the fact that footage seemed to indicate a nod toward the attacker just before the attack. ... Those who rushed to her aid insisted that she get checked out, but she refused,...

Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., held a town hall Tuesday evening in her home district amid recent shootings involving federal immigration agents and local agitators in Minneapolis. The event started out mostly uneventful until a man attacked the congresswoman with some sort of chemical spray that had a foul odor, according to those close by. Those nearby Omar wanted her to leave, but Omar refused and continued on. "Please don't let them have the show," Omar could be heard saying after she was hit with the foul-smelling spray. "We will continue! These f----ing a--holes are not going to get away with...
