An old friend is ratting out Ilhan Omar to the Daily Mail, saying that she admitted to friends that she did marry her brother in a secret marriage in order to get papers for her brother:
DAILY MAIL – ‘Squad’ congresswoman Ilhan Omar told friends years ago that the man who went on to become her second husband was in fact her brother, DailyMail.com can confirm.
And now for the first time one of those friends has come forward to reveal exactly how Omar and Ahmed Elmi scandalized the Somali community in Minneapolis.
Abdihakim Osman is the first person to go on record to speak of how Omar said she wanted to get her brother papers so he could stay in the United States, at a time when she was married to her first husband Ahmed Hirsi.
But hardly anyone realized that meant marrying him.
‘No one knew there had been a wedding until the media turned up the marriage certificate years later,’ Osman, 40, exclusively told DailyMail.com.
Osman’s revelations are sure to renew calls for an investigation into the Minnesota freshman representative who has repeatedly refused to answer questions on her marriage to Elmi.
She originally said the idea that the spouses were also siblings were ‘baseless, absurd rumors’, accusing journalists of Islamophobia, but has since stayed quiet.
“Osman’s revelations are sure to renew calls for an investigation…”, yeah maybe from the right. But the left doesn’t care about this. To them, Omar is Muslim and therefore untouchable. Remember, we all saw how Pelosi handled her with kid gloves and let her get away with anti-Semitism.
As we wrote last month, the FBI is already looking into this:
BIG Ilhan Omar update:
Federal investigators finally seem to be reviewing the overwhelming evidence against @IlhanMN.
And at least THREE agencies are considering her case:
1. The @FBI,
2. The DofEd. Inspector General,
3. … And @ICEgov.(1/x)

Even if they decide to criminally pursue her for immigration fraud, among whatever else they find, who here thinks she’ll get anything much more than a slap on the hand? I know I don’t, but I’d love to be wrong.
UPDATE: Omar is sticking by her story…
Paying people to generate fake new stories in order to delegitimize me and those I represent isn’t a good look.
Desperation is a sad mobilizing tool.
