Who Is Ilhan Omar, Really? : Why Is She Here? What Is Her Purpose?

When suddenly the curtain is pulled by and exposes

those at the levers of power to be corrupt, they go silent!

Why is it that anyone that isn't room temperature knows Ms. Omar is not who or what she claims to be.

But it's understandable, she does claim to be a progressive democrat, a warrior for protracted radical socialism or worse, Islamic Sharia, a fundamental change to Western civil society.

From her own words, she makes no connection to life in America as being a satisfying experience and demands change to more suit her experiences of years gone by. She can't make the change, she is committed.

Rep. Omar Stonewalling Hometown Paper on Marriage Controversy, Editor Says

Peter Hasson / @peterjhasson / July 19, 2019

Democratic Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar has allegedly been uncooperative with her hometown newspaper’s efforts to get to the bottom of accusations that she committed marriage fraud, the paper’s political editor said.

Omar’s brief congressional career has been dogged by accusations—which she has denied—that she married a male relative, possibly her brother.  Omar and her current husband, Ahmed Hirsi, filed joint tax returns while Omar was married to another man, Ahmed Elmi, Minnesota campaign finance officials said.

Omar and her family have made it difficult for journalists to find out the truth about her marriage, Minnesota Star-Tribune editor Kevin Diaz told PolitiFact in an interview Thursday.  “Our public records searches determined that in at least one period after she married Elmi, all three (Omar, Elmi, and Hirsi) used the same address in Minnesota. It raises questions about the nature of the relationship if she is living with both the person she’s married to and her eventual husband,” Diaz said.

“What’s really made it hard is that she’s been unwilling to address any of these questions. That has fueled the controversy. We quoted her at length to say that these were mere accusations, that they were unfair, and that she shouldn’t have to address them. Be that as may, there was an undisputed instance of her filing her taxes improperly. And if you’re in Congress, you should explain that to your constituents,” he continued.

“We’ve asked her these questions, and also asked her to make her father available. We’ve tried to reach Elmi. We’ve tried to reach her sisters. Her family could put this [the question of Elmi’s relationship to Omar] to rest easily. No one will talk to us. I wish we could send a reporter to Mogadishu [Somalia] but we don’t have the bandwidth,” the editor added.

Omar’s office didn’t respond to The Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment on Diaz’s remarks in time for publication.

President Donald Trump gave fuel to the allegations surrounding Omar’s marriage in comments to reporters Wednesday. “There’s a lot of talk about the fact that she was married to her brother. I know nothing about it,” Trump said. “I don’t know, but I’m sure that somebody would be looking at that.”
