Here is yet more evidence of the two-tier justice system we have in the United States. The Left is above the law; it’s only for dissenters from the Leftist agenda. 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 at all. 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?
“DHS insider spills beans on Ilhan Omar criminal charges for marrying brother,” by Leo Hohmann, World Net Daily, August 5, 2020 (thanks to the Geller Report):
Federal investigators have decided not to prosecute Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., for immigration fraud despite the publicly available evidence that she married her brother to gain him lawful status to remain in the United States.
The news that two separate federal agencies have declined to pursue charges against Omar after a months-long probe came from a veteran insider at the Department of Homeland Security.
The case was investigated by the FBI and involved at least one other agency, but the U.S. Attorney in Minnesota, Erica MacDonald, has decided not to prosecute.
MacDonald is a Republican who was appointed to her post in June 2018 by President Trump….
Records indicate Omar was married to two men at the same time in 2009, and that one of them, Ahmed Elmi, was her own brother and a citizen of Britain….
Omar denounced the accusations as “disgusting lies” by bloggers who were engaging in “Islamophobia.” She refused to address questions on the matter.
Then on Feb. 20, 2020, DailyMail published a story headlined “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.”
Marriage fraud convictions are punishable by five years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000.
The FBI never officially confirmed it had opened an investigation on Omar, but WND’s insider source at DHS says an investigation was launched but is going nowhere.
“The marriage fraud case was turned down by the U.S. Attorney’s office in Minnesota and in Washington, D.C.,” the source said.
The excuse was that the statute of limitations on the case, five years, had expired.
However, her divorce from Elmi did not occur until 2017….
“Years ago they would love high-profile cases like this,” the DHS insider said.
“This was clear marriage fraud and immigration fraud, that’s a fact.”
The insider said that for the D.C. office to decline to prosecute “is clearly political.”…

Please someone start a petition to prosecute her

Brenrod says
There is no statute of limitations on obtaining citizenship through fraud
David Darman says
Odd, then, that the reportage while mentioning the rationale for not prosecuting does not mention that important fact. Are you sure?
gravenimage says
There is a statute of limitations for at least some immigration fraud, Benrod:
“For Immigration offenses, federal law extends the statute of limitations from 5 years to 10 for the following offenses:
Using false or fraudulent citizenship papers. 18 USC 1423 .
Impersonating another as an applicant, declarant, petitioner, or witness in citizenship or naturalization proceedings. 18 USC 1424 .
Obtaining citizenship or naturalization illegally. 18 USC 1425 .

The crime in Omar’s case would likely be the second example cited.

so if Wisconsin is smart enough to vote her out this cycle will they prosecute her then?

Wow, I am disappointed! I sound like the Pope now. Damn that Ilhan Omar, lying fraud.
william carr says
The DA in Minn. has to seek re election I assume so she is watching her own back. A hostile Moose Limb population could endanger her positions. I hope DT will have a conversation with Ms MacDonald
Bonaventure says
U.S. Attorney is an appointed position, not elected.

But the Attorney General of Minnesota is indeed an elected position.
David Darman says
If the statute of limitations had, in fact, barred prosecution why would anyone criticize the prosecuting authorities for not bringing charges?
J Morgan says
“The excuse was that the statute of limitations on the case, five years, had expired.
However, her divorce from Elmi did not occur until 2017….”
Ilhan Omar is a criminal and the way it was handled is suspicious.

Kepha says
How can incest and polyandry possibly be crimes in post-modern America? We’ve made LGBTQWXYZ things to celebrate; so why not multiple marriages and incest? Certainly Ilhan Omar would be prosecutable were Reynolds v. US still applicable; or if monogamous, heterosxual marriage were still the norm. But this is not what we have in our day.
Uncle Kepha does not welcome this state of affairs. But I represent the losing side in the culture wars.
curious says
@Kepha, you sound like a Klansman after the fall of the Confederacy. The Confederacy deserved to lose, and so did you. Maybe instead of waging war on your fellow citizens, and losing, you might try making friends.

Kepha has commented here for many years, and is a respected poster. (curious, I know you sneered at the idea that Wellington was a respected poster, but he is also). I do not agree with Kepha on all points, but implying that he is pro-slavery, lynching, and terrorism is quite uncalled for calumny.
Charlie says
Lucky for her we don’t have sharia law, yet. She would have been beheaded, by someone in the family. She certainly is an embarrassment to her family. Are honor killings, still a thing?:-)
Westman says
One must remember that jihad trumps all sins and is the sure path to Jannah(Paradise).
Omar knows, quite well, that only secular law is of any risk to her and that she is a “vanguard” in the eyes of Muslims. She is now free, with the “squad”, to weaken the US from inside, chipping away like a termite.
Peter says
If anyone is surprised by injustice in America today it’s because you want to remain deceived. The left owns everything and the voters are tolerating it. That is where the future is going.

David Grisez says
There is another name that can be added to the name Ilhan Omar as a person that was well known and not prosecuted for their crimes. The person is Hilary Clinton. So now we have a pattern where certain persons because of their position and other factors were not prosecuted for their crimes.
CogitoErgoSum says
Her wedding to her brother was performed by a Christian minister. Two Muslims being married by a Christian makes no sense unless it was not seen as a real marriage by the two Muslims. Yeah, she’s proud of herself for using the Christians and making fools of them. But the Christian minister who performed the ceremony was a fool for not requiring the two people she united in marriage to be Christians. Christians should NEVER trust Muslims and should stop feeling sorry for them. Deceiving people is wrong in the minds of Christians but isn’t wrong in the minds of Muslims when it comes to deceiving anyone who is not a Muslim.

Linde Barrera says
I am praying that Rep. Ilhan Omar be defeated in the 2020 elections. A gentleman called Antone Melton-Meaux is running against her. Please pray that he wins.
It would be great if Ilhan Omar and her third husband Tim Mynett (a political consultant who has gotten hundreds of thousands of campaign dollars from Omar’s campaign) relocate to the American Virgin Islands or similar place and just disappear from the public eye. People with her mindset are a bitter pill in American politics.
Bonaventure says
“A gentleman called Antone Melton-Meaux is running against her.”
And he’s been endorsed by BLM. Good luck with that.
Either way, the choice will be to remain the frying pan or jump out into the fire.

Bad Penguin says
Basically in this country no woman is prosecuted for these crimes. My ex is a legal immigrant and I found out after the divorce that she had married someone (immigration fraud) else while we were married. INS did give hoot about it. If a man had done it he’d be imprisoned and deported.

Isn’t Donald Trump the President and his administration in charge of immigration? If so, they are at fault for letting Omar get away with immigration fraud.

OLD GUY says
Donald Trump ran on cleaning up the swamp. I’am disappointed in his failure to do so, this is a prime example of how the DC system has worked and obviously continues to work. Why did it take 5yrs before they would decide to prosecute her, how handy the statute of limitations is for them. If one of us committed this crime it dam sure wouldn’t take them a year to investigate and prosecute us. SHAME on OUR POLITICAL LEADERS protecting each other. It should be an honor to serve your country and fellow citizens, but it seems that our politicians ONLY serve THEMSELVES.
J Morgan says

No doubt that the relevant prosecutors are politically compromised. That’s why they dragged their feet until statute of limitations could excuse their unwillingness.
