Lock whom up? Ilhan Omar (Dimocrat Somalia). She’s even lost the Star Tribune
U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar is back in the news again, and not in a good way. The former state representative who won a seat in Congress last fall continues to be dogged by past missteps, this time eight violations of Minnesota campaign-finance law that will cost her nearly $3,500 in reimbursements and civil penalties.
So complex were the allegations that the state Campaign Finance Board spent nearly a year assessing the case, deposing staff people and former staff people, along with Omar herself. The investigation was broadened in October — just a month before her election to Congress — to look more deeply into the allegations. Board Executive Director Jeff Sigurdson said that between six and eight people were deposed separately.
In an October 2018 editorial, we called on Omar to more fully explain her travel and other expenses. We noted that the allegations “suggest a pattern of carelessness and/or self-dealing with legally restricted funds. Neither conclusion inspires the confidence voters deserve to have in someone they send to the U.S. House to represent them.”
Doesn’t matter. She’s a Somali. They don’t care how corrupt she is. It’s part of their DNA.
It is even more disturbing, therefore, to learn that among the board’s latest findings was a troubling discovery that is far beyond its jurisdiction, but worthy of greater scrutiny nevertheless. Omar, for two years running, filed joint tax returns with a man she was living with but not legally married to. Complicating matters further, she was legally married to another man at the time.
It’s against the law in Minnesota to file jointly unless one filer is legally married to the other. Last year Omar told the Star Tribune that she had married her partner “in her faith,” and had earlier divorced her first husband “in her faith.” That’s fine for religious purposes. But for tax purposes, only civil marriages qualify. It’s not known whether she benefited materially by filing jointly. That is something that voters, who are obliged to follow tax laws no matter how painful, are entitled to know.
Laws are for the little people. Ask Al Sharpton. He should be in jail for tax fraud. Here’s a question the Strib didn’t ask. Which one of these marriages was to her brother? Did it constitute immigration fraud?
Lock her up! Better yet, since she hates this country so much send her back to Somalia where she belongs.
But they identified being married so it’s ok.
So if a they marries a they, does that create a them?
I think you get a dem.
Omar is a disgusting POS who should be deported, and the Democrats embracing her says frightening things about the Party. But intellectual honesty compels me to acknowledge that, as I understand it, the “brother” allegation doesn’t have solid evidence behind it and probably is legend rather than truth. Do I have that right?
Wonder if she thinks the $4500 “COLA” for the congresscritters isn’t enough, like AOC.
Really disturbing part is the taxpayers now pay over $93 million/year for those jokers, and with their “COLA” it’s going over $95 million. And then there are all those staff people who actually do the taxpayer screwing.
No, lock her up then when it has finished it’s sentence, deport it back to Africa. Maybe Congo.
Incarceration costs taxpayer money. Skip the lockup, and ship her and her relatives asses back to Mogadishu.
🤘🏻
half way back would be fine with me, just air drop her ass in the middle of the Atlantic.
“Neither conclusion inspires the confidence voters deserve to have in someone BEFORE they send THEM to the U.S. House to represent them.”
Shouldn’t the paper have have added those two words (all caps above) in that sentence?
On a separate subject, don’t read the article titled “Surprising barrier to college success: Dense higher education lingo” in the AJC unless you want to have an aneurysm. The fucking author thinks ‘identifiers’ is a difficult word.
I think we’ve gone past the point of ‘dumbing down’ and have reached the plateau of ‘stupidifying.’ If you can’t read and understand a college admissions or financial aid form, then you aren’t college material.
If this moslem bitch walks on these and other charges, don’t expect me to ever obey a law ever again.
Jail her ass in Somalia
