In Minneapolis a woman trying to resist ICE law-enforcement activity ended up being shot to death. Renee Good used her car to block traffic in both directions of a street in the enforcement zone. ICE agents made several attempts to get her to exit her car so she could be arrested for obstruction. Her wife Rebecca Brown Good exited the vehicle. As Rebecca yelled "drive baby, drive," Renee put her foot on the gas pedal. The car lurched forward toward an ICE officer. He fired his pistol at the driver. The car veered past and sideswiped him rather than hitting...

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...

Tensions have been high in Minnesota, particularly after the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) recent announcement that they’d be sending 2,000 ICE officers to the state. After the January 7 shooting that killed a 37-year-old woman in Minneapolis, Governor Tim Walz responded in a press conference, calling for protestors to remain calm, and rejecting any further federal law enforcement be sent to the Twin Cities. “I have a very simple message, Walz said, “We do not need any further help from the federal government. To Donald Trump and Kristi Noem, you’ve done enough.” DHS Secretary Noem herself held two separate...

Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., was at the forefront of expanding federal funding for pandemic-era food and childcare programs. Those programs are now at the center of fraud allegations among the Somali immigrant community in her home state. Omar, who represents a congressional district with a sizable Somali population in Minneapolis, championed the MEALS Act in 2020 at the height of the pandemic and offered an amendment that would allow the federal government the ability to grant waivers to state governments for increased costs. Omar introduced the Act with the goal of removing oversight barriers to the expansion of federally funded...

Rep. Ilhan Omar’s defense of Somalia’s territorial claims and her opposition to the recognition of an independent Somaliland has been criticized as authorities ramp up investigations into alleged mass fraud in her home state. One analyst argued the corruption scandal allegedly involving Somali communities in Minnesota is relevant when contrasting failures in Somalia and the stability of Somaliland, an autonomous region that Omar has opposed recognizing. Michael Rubin, a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, claimed highlighting the difference between the two regions "mattered." "The corruption exposed in Minnesota mirrors the governance failures that have plagued Somalia for decades,"...

RE: Fraud in Minnesota I’m not sure that most Americans understand that in large swathes of humanity, there is no actual concept of “fraud,” particularly fraud against the government. Instead, there is a belief in the virtue of getting away with what you can to help yourself and your tribe. I spent a lot of my life in the Middle East and Central Asia, working closely with foreign contractors and foreign governments to provide support to American military operations. As a US Army officer with a big checkbook courtesy of Uncle Sam, I can’t really count the sheer number of...

Minnesota Congresswoman Ilhan Omar is facing a fresh wave of scrutiny following the release of her 2024 financial disclosure form, which reveals a staggering leap in her household's reported wealth. The 43-year-old Democratic lawmaker, a prominent member of the so-called 'Squad', has seen her and her husband Tim Mynett's combined fortune skyrocket by as much as 3,500 per cent since the end of 2023. Despite earning a standard congressional salary of less than $175,000 (£138,000) a year, Omar's latest filings suggest a net worth that could reach as high as $30 million. The sudden windfall has reignited long-standing accusations regarding...

This week, acting US Attorney for the District of Minnesota Joe Thompson reported that "in addition to the billion dollars of fraud previously discovered another $9 billion has gone missing. The magnitude of fraud in Minnesota cannot be overstated. Staggering amounts of money have been lost." Gov. Tim Walz called Thompson's report "one-sided. He overlooks the initiative demonstrated by a number of our state's refugees from Somalia. Though most of these folks are poorly educated and have few, if any, marketable skills, a cadre of clever scammers were able to enrich themselves far beyond anything they could have hoped for...

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...

Acting Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Director Todd Lyons has rejected the viral claims made by Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) alleging that ICE agents pulled over her son after he went to Target. Omar alleged in an interview that her son got pulled over by ICE agents, asserting that he was allowed to leave once he produced his passport. “He did get pulled over by ICE agents and once he was able to produce his passport ID they did let him go,” she claimed. […] Lyons said Omar has not produced proof this happened. “ICE has absolutely zero record of...

An independent journalist in Minnesota makes another shocking allegation against Ilhan Omar. Liz Collin, the independent journalist, is a former local TV reporter. Yesterday, on her podcast she had a guest that did some research into the background of Ilhan Omar, evidently Ilhan Omar changed her birth year by one year. You might say, that's odd but what's the big deal. Ilhan Omar has always claimed she gained US citizenship when her father was naturalized when she was 17-years old, if she changed her birth year to make her appear to be 17 instead of 18 it would show she...

As we’ve reported, federal prosecutors have uncovered massive fraud in Minnesota’s federally funded food child nutrition programs, where scammers – many of them of Somalian descent – allegedly ripped off over a billion dollars from taxpayers. Some are predicting the end of Gov. Tim Walz’s political career, as this went down under his watch, and it’s been revealed that Rep. Ilhan Omar (MN-05) held her campaign victory party in 2018 at a restaurant owned by a man who was convicted in March on 21 counts related to the scandal, including wire fraud, federal programs bribery and money laundering. Not a...

Senator Ted Cruz has weighed in on Representative Ilhan Omar and issued her with a warning after allegations have swirled that the progressive congresswoman married her brother so he could become an American citizen. Cruz shared an article on X, accusing Omar of the reported sham marriage, writing: 'If this is true, then Omar faces criminal liability under three different statutes.' The Republican senator then cited three US laws, including Federal Marriage Fraud, State Incest Laws, and Tax Fraud. Federal Marriage Fraud prohibits any American from knowingly entering into a marriage to evade immigration laws. Meanwhile, all state incest laws...

Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar’s second husband has emerged online, referring to himself as a "dirty dandy" on Instagram while showing off a fun-loving lifestyle in South Africa, according to reports.Ahmed Nur Said Elmi, 40, who spent time abroad after leaving the U.S., is now believed to be in Johannesburg, where he has been chronicling his time there, the New York Post reported.The outlet revealed social media posts showing him wearing a visitor’s badge at the University of the Witwatersrand and enjoying upscale venues as he documents his day-to-day life.Elmi's reappearance also coincided with President Trump pushing his allegation the Minnesota...

Trump administration border czar Tom Homan said this week that the Department of Homeland Security is investigating whether Minnesota Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar committed immigration fraud by allegedly marrying her brother. President Donald Trump and his allies have claimed Omar's first husband, Ahmed Elmi, is actually her brother, who she married for immigration purposes in 2009. The couple divorced in 2017 and no DNA evidence has supported the claim that they are brother and sister. Homan told Newsmax that he was investigating whether Omar committed immigration fraud and is thereby in the country illegally. Omar first came to the United...

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...

Hundreds of social service workers at the Minnesota Department of Human Services have identified Gov. Tim Walz (D) as the reason why fraudsters were able to steal over one billion dollars of public funds intended to feed the hungry, saying "Tim Walz is 100% responsible for massive fraud in Minnesota. We let Tim Walz know of fraud early on, hoping for a partnership in stopping fraud. Instead, he systematically retaliated against whistleblowers and did his best to discredit fraud reports. Meanwhile the perpetrators of the Feeding Our Future fraud scheme stole the money that was supposed to feed children during...

An emotional parody tribute for our favourite American congress woman: Ilhan Omar!

An illegal immigrant from Somalia with a long rap sheet for fraud and apparent ties to Democratic politicians in Minnesota — including Gov. Tim Walz and Rep. Ilhan Omar — was arrested Friday as part of President Trump’s immigration crackdown. Abdul Dahir Ibrahim was taken into custody by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents and is being held at the McCook ICE facility in Nebraska, dubbed the “Cornhusker Clink” by the Department of Homeland Security, records show. Ibrahim has an extensive criminal history and has had removal orders against him since 2004, according to Fox News. Prior to entering the US,...
