Ilhan Omar: American MP Ilhan Omar is once again in the news. Ilhan Omar has broken her silence on the allegations of marrying her brother in the immigration scam. While giving her first interview after the early morning raid at her house, she said that she was not aware that she had married her brother. Ilhan Omar gave her first interview after Homeland Security raided her home and responded to allegations that she married her brother, saying that she was not aware of him. The 44-year-old Minnesota congresswoman faces an extraordinary claim just days after federal agents descended on her Washington DC home as part of an investigation into alleged immigration fraud. On the other hand, President Donald Trump has repeatedly accused Ilhan Omar of immigration fraud and suggested that she could be sentenced to jail.
Democrats dismissed the long-running allegations as “insane” and blamed right-wing influencers for spreading conspiracy theories. MS Now host Chris Hayes pressed her on whether there was even the slightest possibility that she was related to her ex-husband Ahmed Nour Said Elmi.
Said on the allegations- This is disgusting and false
Chris Hayes said, 'You had no relationship with him at all?' 'There is no strange part of the truth…' On this Ilhan Omar said that it is not in my knowledge. The unusual exchange is being claimed to be Omar's first major interview since Homeland Security investigations seized phones, computers and other personal items from his home. Chris Hayes acknowledged the extraordinary nature of the allegations and introduced the sensitive topic, which has been repeatedly raised by President Donald Trump and other political opponents. There are people on the right who believe this man was your brother. Chris Hayes told the Congresswoman that you called it disgusting and a lie.
Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar has responded with bizarre words to explosive allegations that she married her own brother to commit immigration fraud. Homeland Security Investigations police searched the home of Representative Ilhan Omar (D-MN) in Washington, DC on October 12 as part of an ongoing criminal investigation.
Referring to her ex-husband she said, 'Who was this man who was your husband? When did they start saying he is your brother? Why? Ilhan Omar claimed that the allegations originated on a Somali blog before being taken up by conservative activists in Minneapolis. He explained that 'It started with a Somali blog. I don't know if it still exists or not, but somebody said you know it might have been my brother or something and right wing conspiracy theorists in Minneapolis got hold of it.
Ilhan doesn't know the person who made the claim
Meanwhile, Ilhan Omar broke her silence in a wide-ranging interview with MS Now, in which she addressed explosive allegations about her former marriage, the federal raid on her home and the politically motivated campaign by the Trump administration. Omar insisted that she did not know the people making these claims.
There is no established evidence that Elmi is Omar's brother, and the Congress president has consistently denied the allegation.
