It’s Time for Ilhan Omar to “Face the Music”

Minnesota’s Ilhan Omar has always been a controversial figure in the House of Representatives. Now that her involvement with a massive scam regarding non-profit organizations in the state of Minnesota has come out, perhaps it’s time we take a look back at her personal behavior.

On August 12, 2016, powerlineblog.com posted the following…

“A reader has written us to point out that the Somali website Somalispot posted information last week suggesting Omar’s involvement in marriage and immigration fraud. The post notes that Omar married Ahmed Hirsi in 2002. Hirsi is the father of Omar’s three children. Omar is depicted with Hirsi and their children on Omar’s campaign website here.

The post further notes that Omar married her brother Ahmed Nur Said Elmi in 2009, implying that the latter marriage assisted his entry into the United States. Her brother was a British citizen. “As soon as Ilhan Omar married him,” the post continues, “he started university at her [a]lma mater North Dakota State University where he graduated in 2012. Shortly thereafter, he moved to Minneapolis where he was living in a public housing complex and was later evicted. He then returned to the United Kingdom where he now lives.”

So, she was legally married AND married her brother while married to Hirsi, finally legally divorcing her brother in 2017.

But wait… there’s more…

On August 27, 2019 FoxNews.com reported that

“The wife of a prominent Washington political consultant has filed for divorce, claiming her husband made a “devastating and shocking” revelation that he was having an affair with freshman Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn.

Beth Mynett, 55, submitted divorce papers in Washington, D.C., Superior Court on Tuesday, saying her husband, Tim Mynett, 38, informed her earlier this year that he was having an affair with Omar.

“The parties physically separated on or about April 7, 2019, when Defendant told Plaintiff that he was romantically involved with and in love with another woman, Ilhan Omar, who serves as a U.S. representative from Minnesota,” read the filing, obtained by Fox News.”

This fine upstanding individual has gone from making $65,000 a year to making millions while serving herself in the House of Representatives.

She is in a legislative position in Congress to serve the needs of Americans. However, she doesn’t see it that way:

In a speech given to her supporters in January of 2024, speaking in the Somali language, she said,

“The U.S. government will do what we ask it to do,” a translation of Omar’s speech said.

“We should have this kind of confidence in ourselves as Somalis. We live in this country. We are taxpayers in this country. This country is one where one of your daughters sits in Congress. While I am in Congress, no one will take Somalia’s sea, and the U.S. government won’t support others to rob us. Don’t stress over it, Minnesotans.” (Courtesy FoxNews.com)

It was President Teddy Roosevelt who said, and I paraphrase, There is no such thing as a half American. You cannot hold loyalties to two countries at the same time. If you don’t swear allegiance to America, then you don’t need to be here.

Representative Omar needs to face punishment for her actions involving the Minnesota scam. In fact, every representative or senator who has been involved in the illegal activities needs to be called out and punished for them. The two-tier justice system, which has spread throughout the country like a cancer, must be rectified so that we may truly be a country that can probably proclaim “justice for all”.

Until He Comes,
