The same people who chastise the progressive movement regularly traffic in anti-Muslim smears and hate speech against me and those I represent.
It’s almost as if they don't genuinely care about online harassment.

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.

Apparently Ilhan Omar would have us believe that Abdihakim Osman, although he is a Muslim himself, was paid to engage in this “anti-Muslim smear.” Omar is simply following the tried-and-true playbook: when Islamic supremacists are accused of any wrongdoing, they immediately claim victim status and try to place all the responsibility upon the accuser. And so many Westerners are so willfully blind to this tactic that they will almost certainly fall for it yet again.
“Ilhan Omar DID marry her brother and said she would ‘do what she had to do to get him “papers” to keep him in U.S.’, reveals Somali community leader,” by Martin Gould, Dailymail.com, February 20, 2020:
‘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.
Her spokesman told DailyMail.com that Omar, 37, does not comment on her family or personal life.
‘The Congresswoman is focused on the work her constituents sent her to Washington to accomplish,’ he said.
Omar married her first husband Hirsi in 2002 in a Muslim ceremony that, like many in the immigrant community, was not registered with the state.
Their first child Isra was born the following year and a second followed.
But in the late 2000s Elmi appeared in Minneapolis, said Osman, who referred to Hirsi by his nickname ‘Southside’ throughout the interview.
‘People began noticing that Ilhan and Southside (Hirsi) were often with a very effeminate young guy,’ Osman said, who spoke in Somali through an interpreter.
‘He was very feminine in the way he dressed — he would wear light lipstick and pink clothes and very, very, short shorts in the summer. People started whispering about him.
‘[Hirsi] and Ilhan both told me it was Ilhan’s brother and he had been living in London but he was mixing with what were seen as bad influences that the family did not like.
‘So they sent him to Minneapolis as ”rehab”.’
Osman, who runs a popular Facebook blog called Xerta Shekh, which comments on Somali issues, said that Omar kept her marriage to Elmi quiet, with no one from the Somali community invited to the wedding.
He explained: ‘When [Hirsi] and Ilhan got married, a lot of people were invited. It was a big Islamic wedding uniting two large clans in the Minneapolis community.
‘I would say there were 100-150 people there.’
But, he said: ‘When she married Elmi, no one even knew about it.’
Osman said at the time Hirsi was better known than Omar among Somalis. ‘He was a footballer, he promoted a lot of Somali shows, he was very popular.
‘So the scandal was about [Hirsi’s] brother-in-law more than Ilhan’s brother.’
It has long been rumored that Omar and Elmi are brother and sister.
But because of a lack of paperwork in war-torn Somalia where they were both born, positive proof of their relationship has never been uncovered.
The first report that Omar and her husband were siblings appeared on the website Somalispot in 2016. It said of Elmi, 34: ‘As soon as Ilhan Omar married him he started university at her alma 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.’
The New York Post reported last month that the FBI was investigating the marriage and had met with a source in Minneapolis who handed over ‘a trove of documents’ related to the marriage.
Any findings were to be shared with Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the US Department of Education, the paper reported. Anyone found guilty of committing marriage fraud faces up to five years in jail and a fine of up to $250,000.
Elmi and Omar married on February 12, 2009 at a Hennepin County office in Eden Prairie, Minnesota, southwest of Minneapolis, their marriage license shows. Omar said she and Hirsi had separated in 2008, and because their faith-based union was never recognized by law, neither is their separation.
Elmi and Omar said they lived together at an address in Columbia Heights, a suburb on the north side of the city.
The marriage was conducted by Christian minister Wilecia Harris. When DailyMail.com approached her last year, she would not discuss the ceremony or why a Muslim couple would have asked her to marry them.
She and her husband Marcus run the Great and Mighty Works Ministries in Richfield, Minnesota, which is described on its Facebook page as a ‘nondenominational, Bible believing, Bible teaching, and Bible living ministry that believes in being a living example of Jesus the anointed one!’
In a Facebook message, Marcus Harris told DailyMail.com: ‘My wife doesn’t want to be involved or interviewed about Congresswoman Omar.’
‘It’s not going to happen, not now and not never.’
After their marriage Omar and Elmi moved to Fargo, where they both attended North Dakota State. But Omar and Hirsi were still together as husband and wife, Osman said.
‘She said she needed to get papers for her brother to go to school. We all thought she was just getting papers together to allow him to stay in this country.
‘Once she had the papers they could apply for student loans.
‘They both moved to North Dakota to go to school but she was still married to [Hirsi]. In the Somali way, the only marriage that mattered was the one in the mosque.
‘Ilhan came back to Minneapolis all the time to see her family, but her brother didn’t come with her.’
Osman believes Elmi and Omar sought out someone outside the Somali community to conduct the ceremony because an imam would have known they were related and would have refused to marry them….
Stieve says
War is deceit.
Makes one wonder, is this woman sharia compliant. Is her mistress (whatever the male version is) also a practicing muslim?
If not, who gets to beat whom?
Roger Woodhouse says
It is very sad that the whole of the Western world is now living a lie to acommodate this vile deceitful religion.Our whole Christian ethos is being threatened and our governments ignore just what is taking place under their noses.Just what do they think is going to happen when Islam becomes more dominant?
topassistant says
She is a PIG!
mortimer says
A congressman called her the most corrupt politician in Minnesota history.
Infidel says
I doubt that pig siblings try procreating w/ each other. Although Omar’s ‘marriage’ was more a case of immigration fraud than incest
Hugh Fitzgerald says
Five years in jail, a $250,000 fine. That’s a good start.
mortimer says
Lock her up. Then, revoke her citizenship, because it was fraudulently obtained.
Keys says
Absolutely ! Deport her back to Somalia !
James Lincoln says
Yes – D E P O R T !!!
Infidel says
Hopefully, ICE/USCIS have the cajunes to go after her on this!
RichardL says
She is disgusting on so many levels.
commonsense says
Here’s another case of fraud and corruption committed at the highest government levels (as Omar is a Congresswoman) which should be within the purview, I believe, of Atty. Gen. Wm. Barr, who, to date, seems to have accomplished nothing with respect to bringing Clinton, Holder, Clapper, Comey, Brennan, ad nauseam to justice…not a single indictment, an entire year after his appointment. And what about Obama and his bypassing Congressional approval for sneaking billion$ to the lunatic Mullahs, pretending that the hudna that he supports will actually curb Iran’s nuclear weapons development? Obama isn’t even a candidate for investigation by the AG’s office. Trump and the American public have waited long enough for action to be taken, i.e. indictments to be issued so that these egregiously guilty bastards can be tried and, if justice prevails, convicted of treason, sedition, conspiracy to overthrow the government, etc. Enough waiting – Barr needs to go – he’s shown himself to be no better than his recusing predecessor. Please, Mr. President, get rid of Barr!
mortimer says
A two-tier justice system. The corrupt Clintons walk free. Joe Biden and his entire nepotistical family benefited from his high office to gain foreign favors.
Shirley Ann says
Omar & Obama certainly mirror each other, concerning their Legal Status in America. Both try to hide their Personal Records, while Living off the American System,which has Blessed them, far beyond what any True American Could ever wish. They are the ENTITLED ALIENS!
keith says
Too true.
All of this could be cleared up with a simple DNA test. Oh, wait, that won’t work because 75% of the Muslim world is inbred.
JamesC says

I don’t remember the passage in which Jesus said incest was OK. And He very explicitly said this:
“3 Some Pharisees came to him to test him. They asked, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any and every reason?” 4 “Haven’t you read,” he replied, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,’ 5 and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh’? 6 So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.” 7 “Why then,” they asked, “did Moses command that a man give his wife a certificate of divorce and send her away?” 8 Jesus replied, “Moses permitted you to divorce your wives because your hearts were hard. But it was not this way from the beginning. 9 I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another woman commits adultery.” 10 The disciples said to him, “If this is the situation between a husband and wife, it is better not to marry.””

So why is a Christian enabling an incestuous Muslim union ?
mortimer says
We didn’t know that MARRYING YOUR BROTHER is part of Islam, Omar.
And … NO … first cousin marriage is HALAL, sister. But BROTHER-SISTER marriage would be HARAM.
Why don’t we just call you what you are, Omar … an AMORAL, OPPORTUNISTIC SLEAZE.
mortimer says
Quote: In a Facebook message, Marcus Harris told DailyMail.com: ‘My wife doesn’t want to be involved or interviewed about Congresswoman Omar.’
‘It’s not going to happen, not now and not never.’
‘NEVER’ ??? Even when subpoenaed? Perhaps Rev. Wilecia Harris will explain to a judge why a Christian minister marries a Muslim brother and sister.
It will be delicious to hear Wilecia Harris when she is under oath on the stand.
Naram-Sin says
Why isn’t anyone pointing out that Illan “Omar” isn’t who she claims to be. She entered the country using a false name, fraudulently claiming to be the child of people who weren’t her parents because her parents could not get into the US. She obtained her citizenship fraudulently claiming to be someone she wasn’t, using a false name. This means she fraudulently became a member of Congress and she is not a US Citizen.
Illan Nur should be arrested, kicked out of Congress, stripped of her fraudulently obtained citizenship, and deported.
Spiro says
None of this matters she’s Muslim and therefore gets
special treatment and a liberal democratic like Hillary
And the Biden crime family
mortimer says
Read the full article with pic of Omar’s obviously homosexual brother.

They sure look like brother and sister
Templer says
InBreads that why there all looney chooses Islam is a lie the Koran is a lie no paradise just Black Death like Islam’s black heart I say this asa x muslim
Queen B says
The UK has just enacted controls that force Sharia marriages to be fully in accordance with British law and acknowledged by the state. All due to the known discrimination of women in matters of divorce and inheritance that Sharia courts have brought. These new controls prevent the deceit and discrimination practiced to an end. Sharia in the US must be held to the same controls for our state. Make no mistake Sharia is being practiced and is depriving women and children of their rights by not being acknowledged as legal wives or legally acknowledged children.
Infidel says
One of the first questions about ‘Ilhan Omar’ would be: “What is her real name?”
somehistory says
According to one source, with a link to the “story” on an article in the Washington Standard, she changed her name to come to the States because the family had a name that was not allowed. Ir’s been too tong since I read it to recall the last name
The parent found out about a family named “omar” that had bee accepted and chose that name so they could get in.
The Washington Standard article on the issue of the other moslim spilling the “marry the brother” beans, has a lot of linked articles about her and the family.
Infidel says
What sort of names are not allowed? I just had my naturalization ceremony days ago. In the final forms, they give the option of changing one’s name while adapting US citizenship: I declined. If she changed her name during such a transition, that would actually be legal.
However, falsifying who her real parents are wouldn’t
somehistory says
Her father evidently was a hunted man and he changed his last name, and that of his daughters **before** they came to the U.S.
They found out that some guys named “omar” were being allowed in and changed theirs to omar.
I will try to find the article, though it has been many weeks since I read it, so not sure how easy it will be to find as I don’t recall the exact title. But it was in the Washington Standard along with several other articles about omar and her illegalities.
So, it was illegal for her father to falsify their last name in order to get in.
Any American citizen has the legal right to change their name, unless they are doing so to hide criminal activity. Also, when filling out various forms, one will be asked what other names, if any, that person has used, and it is necessary to list all of them. Such as when getting a driver’s license, or requesting public assistance.
Brian Hoff says
Barr doesnot want to be disbar from legal practice by bring chargrlesn without any real evidence. There is no real evidence that she marry her brother. The FBI is easteig theytime.
Infidel says
This is more an issue for DHS than DoJ, and the evidence is her tax returns, where she lists her brother as her husband, while her husband is nowhere in the filings. She would get a $250k fine and 5 years in jail.
Hopefully, it would put a damper on the squad
somehistory says
You know less than a re-fried bean about legal matters.

lhan Omar decries “anti-Muslim smears and hate speech against me” after Somali confirms she married her brother
………………
How likely is it that the Somali who confirmed this story is “anti-Muslim”? Considering Somalia is considered 100% Muslim, I’d say it’s rather unlikely…
Infidel says
Yeah, wonder whether she would dare get into a taqfir pissing contest, given her own affair w/ an infidel man, no less, which is probably punishable by death in islam
Seeking Deliverance says
Ilhan Omar should be arrested for tax fraud, marriage fraud, theft of public funds, and then deported back to her Islamic homeland once and for all. Islam should be purged from one and all western countries. It’s bad enough California now posts state government road signs in Arabic and no other language (not even English nor Spanish).
Infidel says

OLD GUY says
OMAR is a liar from the get go.
Norger says
There is a fair amount of compelling evidence that.there is something seriously fishy about this “marriage.” Everything about Ahmed Elmi’s on-line presence screams out that he’s gay. There’s also evidence that Omar lived together with her two “husbands” after she allegedly split from her first husband and married Elmi. That must been interesting. There’s also a picture that Elmi posted on social media of Elmi holding a baby whom he identified as his niece shortly after Omar gave birth to her third child.DNA tests could of course put the matter to rest conclusively, but that’s not going to happen.
I also wonder if the divorce payout from Omar to her ex-husband (the real one, not her brother) was, in part, to keep his mouth shut about this.
This type of immigration fraud committed by sitting Congresswoman should be a bigger deal. But then “Islamophobia” is an all-purpose defense.
