Ilhan Omar Won’t Get Prosecuted for Immigration Fraud, Showing Who Really Has the Privilege

Aug 10, 2020 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer

My latest in PJ Media:

Here is yet more evidence of the two-tier justice system we have in the United States. A “veteran insider” at the Department of Homeland Security revealed Wednesday that two different federal agencies have investigated Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Ankara) for months, but decided not to prosecute her for immigration fraud, despite clear and readily available evidence that she married her own brother as part of an elaborate immigration scam.

A key clue as to why there will be no prosecution can be seen in the fact that Omar has accused those who have researched her unusual marital arrangements of “Islamophobia.” Ilhan Omar is a leftist, a black person, a woman, and a Muslim. These are the reasons why she will not be prosecuted. Anyone who dared to prosecute her would be excoriated in the establishment media as a racist “Islamophobe”; few have the courage to stand up against that onslaught.

And so Ilhan Omar can do whatever she wants, without fear of suffering any consequences. If you’re skeptical about that, ask yourself what the reaction would be if a conservative Republican Congressman, a white Christian man, was suspected of marrying his sister in order to commit immigration fraud. Do you think everyone would decline to prosecute in that case?

This is flagrant corruption, out in the open for anyone to see. Ilhan Omar is rubbing our noses in America’s current two-tier justice system. If one of the hoi polloi did something like this, he or she would face consequences. But Ilhan Omar knows she is golden. The standards that apply to other people don’t apply to her.

That is also clear from the fact that the curious case of her apparent marriage to her brother is not the only instance in which Omar has been found on the wrong side of the law. The controversial Congresswoman has a lengthy record of utter contempt for the law she has sworn to uphold and defend.

Omar was recently ordered to pay back thousands of dollars of campaign funds that she spent on personal expenses. Minnesota’s Campaign Finance and Public Disclosure Board called upon Omar to pay her former campaign committee $3,500 that she had improperly appropriated for her personal use. That is on top of the fact that Omar’s campaign has paid $1,600,000 to the E Street Group, a consulting firm that happens to be run by Tim Mynett, Omar’s current husband. Such payments are not, strictly speaking, illegal, but in light of the marital relationship involved, they certainly make no attempt to avoid even the appearance of impropriety.

There is much more. Read the rest here.

      Omar did something with her brother/husband that was illegal to do.

        Aug 11, 2020 at 9:20 am

        Was it illegal? If the laws are only applied sporadically, well then, maybe it wasn’t illegal for her, but it is illegal for the rest of us.

        Two systems, one for the peons and one for the chosen. We are not the chosen; muslims and most democrats are.

        Sad, but true.

    When it comes to an influential person like the President of the US after the bogus impeachment has failed they revoke his immunity status so they can try to get him on an eventual tax evasion pretending of course that nobody is above the law .What about Ilhan ? There is clear evidence of immigration fraud , is she above the law ? I say ; Fire the onces who refused to persecute her .

      She’s one of the two Muslim women now holding public office. We’ve got one of these here in Michigan who just won the primary against another Democratic woman (not a Muslim). She’s from a “stronghold” of Middle Eastern immigrants so most likely she will win here in November.

    Oh the poor Congresswoman Omar. She came all the way over from Somalia to save America from itself, and gets cold water thrown in her face. The should’ve seen the warning when her father, at the time on various forms of welfare, announced that he was disappointed in America.

    Disgusting human being. Antithetical in so many ways to what the principles of the American Republic were founded upon.

    Meanwhile, her home country of Somalia has done diddly squat to ever advance the human condition. Upside-down world.

    Someone who marries her brother as part of an immigration scam is as corrupt as hell. Definitely a person of low moral standards and the last type of person any country should want to let in as a migrant. As someone who lives in Australia, I get how she, as a black, a Muslim, etc, gets favourable treatment by the leftie media and the left wingers in politics, (it would be the same in Australia) but wouldn’t it be a popular decision among the average American citizens to throw the book at such a corrupt piece of crap as this Muslim maggot? She seems like the worst type of person to let into the USA. Australia has let endless such enemies into this country as well, people who spend all their time trying to destroy the place. People like this just have to be kept out, the Hungarian solution. Once let into a country, they are nothing but neverending trouble.

      Everyone talks about how corrupt and disgusting Ilhan is and I completely agree but no one seems to care about criminal justice who should be comitted to uphold the law , the question here is why is she not beeing tried despite enough evidence. I say bring in for questioning the once who refused to persecute her and the book them for life.

    • tim gallagher says

      Aug 11, 2020 at 5:55 am

      Thanks for the comments. Hopefully Ilhan will face justice one day. Alien Republican, you’re right. islam has such a evil view of things and lack of any morality that a scam such as marrying your brother wouldn’t bother Islam’s followers at all.

    “Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Ankara)”
    She’s a Turk? No, she’s a Somali. That should be “Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Mogadishu)”.
    Hey, there are lots of rhymes for “Turk, Somali, Mogadishu”. This will inspire lyricists.

      And now she is everyone’s darling

    No, it doesn’t show who has privilege, it shows who has power. The Globalists NEED her, as they needed POTUS #44, even though his BC was bogus and Sherriff Joe proved it (https://youtu.be/cz3uVQqoWbk). Nothing was done about 44’s BC, nothing will be done about omar.

    Lawbreaking lawmakers with zero consequences. With all of this unequal representation under the law and blatant criminality being ignored by some it is getting harder for a jury member to render a guilty verdict in a trial. Those same someones (lawmakers) who appear to support burning it all down will decry the usurpation of the rule of law. They must think we are all stupid.

    Those same people are de-funding the police and in response the police are telling us citizens that you are on your own. Well they seem to have got that right.

Now they have their foot on our voices NO Free Speech. Attacking our 2nd Amend. once this is gone they will win. Pres.

          Police spent a year and a million dollars investigating “DefenderofIslam’s” mama, just because some ‘filthy Infidel’ said she was a bigamist? Let’s just say this strains credulity…

          And then note “Brian Hoff’s” claim that most “rightwing actist busybody”. Presumably by this he means that they dare question supremacist Muslims.

          Notice that even in Omar’s own words she is currently married to two men:

      So if you have a problem with Muslims breaking the law you are “than busybody”? Well, “Brian Hoff”–really, “DefenderofIslam”–has said before that under Shari’ah law that Infidels do not have the right to say anything critical about Muslims.

    When our legal system fails to hold people to the law it has failed and our country will fail right behind it. That seems to be the plan, someone should be able to expose those who are responsible for not charging her and why. Everyone is considered innocent until proven guilty, but that means if you are charged with a crime you have a right to a trial not a right to not be charged because of who you are.

    Ilhan Omar may not be guilty of breaking immigration law, that should not be hard to prove with DNA testing. If she is not guilty she could submit herself and which ever spouse that was for DNA testing and put this behind her. I don’t see that happening in an open setting, so let’s investigate who and why she got a free pass.

    It appears that the statute of limitations comes in to handy for politicians way too often. It’s no wonder our government is becoming so corrupt, they and their high paid lawyers are sticking it to us the tax payers.

    I don’t think she should be “prosecuted”, you know, unless it’s with extreme prejudice.

    Wasn’t Omar one of about 100,000 Somalis that Islam Obama let into USA at the end of his disastrous reign?!
    The first news about post-president Obama was his visit to Indonesia where he attended Islamic
    school as a youth.
