Embattled Rep. Ilhan Omar’s ex-husband and rumored brother, Ahmed Nur Said Elmi, referred to himself as a “gay man” in an academic paper published earlier this year. Elmi’s self-described sexual orientation adds to the mounting evidence that his 2009 marriage to Omar was a sham to obtain legal immigration status for her alleged brother. “As a gay man of the East African diaspora, my fieldwork was never neutral,” Elmi, a doctoral researcher at the University of Bristol, wrote in an August 2026 paper titled, “Out in the Field: Notes on Researching Queer Violence in Kenya.” “It was a space shaped...

(Translated) MEGA-SCANDAL: The winner of the BERLIN elections, from the far-left party Die Linke, accidentally confesses that Hamas controls her party and fears for her life💣 A mistake has just triggered an astonishing security crisis. The magazine Der Spiegel—a media outlet, it must be noted, with a marked leftist slant—has brought to light an internal document proving how Die Linke has been hijacked by Islamism. Its candidate to govern Berlin, Elif Eralp, accidentally sent the newsroom her private notes from an interview where she confesses to being coerced and terrified by Hamas operatives within her own party. It turns out...

Federal investigators found evidence during the Obama administration suggesting that Rep. Ilhan Omar's 2009 marriage to a man suspected of being her brother was intended to help him obtain a green card, but the case stalled chiefly because prosecutors concluded the suspected offense fell outside a five-year statute of limitations, according to a new report.The FBI and Department of Homeland Security investigated the marriage in the summer of 2016, current and former officials told The New York Times in a report published Thursday.The officials' account challenges Omar's characterization of the earlier inquiry as having debunked allegations that she married her...

U.S. Representative Ilhan Omar's account of fleeing Somalia's civil war as a child offers a timeline of her early life, family history and eventual resettlement in the United States, including a recollection of how officials recorded relatives' birth dates during the refugee screening process. The Minnesota Democrat's 2020 memoir, This Is What America Looks Like: My Journey From Refugee to Congresswoman, describes a childhood disrupted by fighting in Mogadishu and a journey that took the family through Somalia and Kenya before they were eventually resettled in the United States. Omar has faced a wave of scrutiny from MAGA hard-liners and...

Anti-Semitism is always the final destination of the trash demagogue. It’s the hole card that gets laid down when everything else has failed. That has certainly turned out to be the case with Abdul Muhammed El-Sayed. He has, of course, been circling around it throughout his campaign, beginning with his dalliance with Hasan Piker, arguably the lead voice of left-wing anti-Semitism for this decade. But now, with a single week left in his campaign for the Senate, he has settled into it with a vengeance. No longer is it possible for El-Sayed to totter atop the fence emitting dog-whistles in...

The Minnesota Court of Appeals reversed Hennepin County Judge Sarah West's decision to throw out a jury's guilty verdicts against Abdifatah Abdulkadir Yusuf, whose health care company fraudulently billed Medicaid for more than $7.2 million. In a ruling filed Monday, a three-judge appellate panel ordered the case returned to Hennepin County for reinstatement of all six guilty verdicts for aiding and abetting theft by swindle. The appeals court rejected West's conclusion that Yusuf's brother, Mohamed, might have orchestrated the fraud without Yusuf knowing or helping. She cited Minnesota's circumstantial evidence standard as needing to rule out such a scenario for...

David Beamer, the father of Todd Beamer, the Flight 93 passenger who helped take down the aircraft and thwart the terrorists' plan back on September 11, 2001, spoke to a rally in Michigan about the upcoming midterms, including the candidacy of Abdul El-Sayed and the rise of the Democratic Socialists of America. "What about now? What has changed? One thing is, 9/11 was a surprise attack," Beamer said. "What's going on right now in our country and here in Michigan, it's not a surprise. We can see the attack coming; it culminates in this battleground state on Tuesday, November 3rd....

Another day, another Omar scandal, another piece of evidence indicating foreign loyalties and domestic betrayal. Rep. Ilhan Omar’s (D-Minn.) father participated in genocide in Somaliland, and Omar herself has connections to top Somali thugs, so unsurprisingly there is a natural antipathy between Omar and Somaliland. The latest (resurrected) accusation from the breakaway African republic against Omar is that she leaked classified information to Somali leaders. Ali Hassan Mohamed, former Somaliland minister of information, originally posted his accusation against Omar in 2024, but the Republic of Somaliland is highlighting the accusation again to emphasize why Omar is a threat to American...

Rep. Ilhan Omar has retained Amy Jeffress, former personal attorney to President Joe Biden, to represent her in a federal investigation concerning her immigration history and financial disclosures. Joshua Matz, also from the same firm, will join her legal team. This development follows renewed attention to a deleted 2013 social media post, which has raised questions about her family name. Omar has not been charged and denies any wrongdoing. A seven-page letter to the Justice Department On October 16, Jeffress and Matz sent a letter requesting the return of Omar’s passport, electronics, and other seized property, as well as preservation...

“You can almost guarantee that every woman that’s in the north of France has probably been raped along the journey. Some of the men too,” UK Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood admitted on a podcast. “They’ve certainly been abused and threatened.” If a fellow Muslim woman or girl isn’t safe on a boat full of her own people, what happens to a British woman or girl alone at night in a park or a train station with one of these ‘migrants’? What the Pakistani Muslim Labour politician put in charge of Britain’s immigration and national security policies didn’t admit was that...

LEWISTON, Maine — A New England city transformed by an influx of refugees and immigrants is now grappling with a youth gun violence crisis after police reported 35 gun-related incidents this year, 22 involving juveniles. "I don’t feel safe. I fear for my life," Mohamed Muhumed, a Lewiston teenager, told Fox News Digital. "I saw someone get punched in the middle of the sidewalk over there. It’s crazy." The city, Maine's second most populous and home to a large population of refugees from Somali and other African nations, is experiencing a serious youth gun violence problem. Lewiston Police Chief Carly...

President Donald Trump called for U.S. Representative Ilhan Omar to immediately resign from Congress on Thursday after a federal court filing allegedly identified the Minnesota Democrat as “Ilhan Nur Said Elmi, a/k/a Ilhan Abdullahi Omar.” Speaking at a rally in Iowa, Trump seized on the allegation while discussing Omar and longstanding allegations surrounding her former marriage. “It was just revealed just a little while ago that ... her name is not Ilhan Omar, the one that she used to get elected and sworn into Congress,” Trump said. “She used a fake name to be sworn in. I assume she must...

The FBI has arrested and charged a 17-year-old boy from McKinney for planning to assassinate U.S. Representative Keith Self at an event last Saturday. Federal investigators said the juvenile was also planning to carry out a terrorist attack in North Texas on behalf of ISIS. The suspect was arrested on October 5 after acquiring a firearm, according to federal law enforcement sources. Sources tell WFAA that the 17-year-old had been radicalized recently and was being monitored by federal agents. The suspect remains in federal custody, and his name has not been publicly released. “Protecting our Constitutional Republic from radical Islam...

As hundreds of thousands of people took to the streets across France this past weekend in support of student protesters, many displayed a somewhat mystifying rallying cry on their cardboard signs: “Bismillah, c’est les ténèbres.” The phrase, a mash-up of the Islamic blessing “In the name of God” and the French phrase “It’s the darkness,” may make little sense on the surface. The poster addressed Snapchat users with the greeting “Bismillah, c’est les ténèbres,” a seemingly nonsensical phrase that appeared to mimic the colloquial blend of Arabic and French that young people in France sometimes use. The writer then added,...

The shelves are absolutely ransacked. Glass jars and other items have been ripped off all the shelves and smashed on the ground. Yet the looters didn't steal (or even touch!) the ham, bacon, or other delicious pork options in the refrigerators. The looters also avoided the toilet paper and tissues on the other side of the store.

PARIS — The nation of France has thrown its support behind the American conservative movement, graciously spending the past week filming a massive campaign ad for the Republican Party. With midterms just over two weeks away, the entire nation of France took it upon itself to film a sprawling attack ad, demonstrating with incredible realism the dangers of voting Democrat. "Wow. Thanks, France," said Republican Senate candidate Jon Husted. "This must have cost billions of dollars to film. We really didn't expect this level of support from the French. Honestly, you didn't have to go so far as burning...

Message at a Doha security conference comes as allies worry the U.S. will leave them to clean up after the Iran war DOHA—Regional security officials received a sobering American message as they gathered in the Qatari capital and braced for a potential new round of escalation between the U.S. and Iran: They need to look out for themselves. Tom Barrack, the U.S. ambassador to Turkey and President Trump’s special envoy for Syria and Iraq, said the grand bargains that have underpinned global security for decades are undergoing major transformation, and countries in the Middle East and elsewhere should focus on...
