Ilhan Omar faces potential $250,000 fines and five years in jail amid unconfirmed Daily Mail reports she married brother Ahmed Elmi in 2009 for residency. President Trump's fiery rhetoric demands her return to Somalia, linking the alleged fraud to Minnesota's billion-dollar welfare scandal. While a Christian minister performed the union, lack of independent proof complicates the narrative, yet the FBI investigation and community sources suggest the marriage was a calculated move to secure U.S. status despite her legislative focus on national hunger relief.

Daily Mail Claims on Omar00:06:02
We are live.
I sure hope Ilhan Omar is sitting down today because, boy, oh boy, the president of the United States had quite a message for her.
And new evidence is coming out that some reports say confirms what we've all feared about that marriage between her and, well, a guy that some believe might be her brother.
Okay, there.
I said it.
Wow, wow.
Good to have you here, everyone.
Merry Christmas.
We've got the tree and everything.
Getting in the spirit, in the season, shall we say.
I got a Christmas concert.
to go to tonight.
I welcome you to the program.
Make sure you subscribe, share, like, all of that good stuff.
And the big question on everyone's mind is, are these rumors true?
And according to a new report from the President of the United States, indeed they are.
The rumors happen to be what the Daily Mail has been reporting.
Exclusive Ilhan Omar did, DID in capital letters, marry her brother and said she would, quote, do what she had to do to get him papers to keep him in the U.S.
This is according to somebody that the Daily Mail spoke to.
In the Somali community, one would presume out in Minnesota, in Minnesota being ground zero for the largest government welfare fraud in the history of this nation, at least a billion dollars, some estimates as high as eight billion dollars.
Thank you very much.
I gotta tell you, this is pretty bizarre.
Let me go first to the president of the United States, who was not mincing words, he usually does not.
And he made it very clear not only does he not want Ilhan, he doesn't want anybody that would engage in this kind of behavior in the country.
Here we go.
I want to see people that contribute.
I don't want to see Somalia.
I don't want to see a woman that marries her brother to get in and then becomes a congressman, does nothing but complain.
All she does is complain, complain, complain, and yet her country's a mess.
It's one of the worst in the world.
Let her go back, fix up her own country.
So, no, Somalia, and I was right about it.
I started complaining about Somalia long before this scandal.
The horrible things they're doing to Minnesota, it's incredible.
They have an incompetent governor there, too.
The Democrats are running some bad chips.
Woo!
Yeah, they are.
I mean, they got Jasmine Crockett.
We're going to get to that in a second.
They are definitely running some bad, bad, bad, bad folks.
Well, let me go back to this story that Daily Mail has that says she did, in fact, marry her brother.
Now, this is not independently confirmed by me.
This is reporting from the Daily Mail's.
Ilhan Omar is a public figure as a member of Congress and therefore fair game.
They have gone out and confirmed this, apparently, with somebody.
within the Somali community there in Minneapolis.
One of the people that had been close to Ilhan Omar and her family is alleging, saying that he knows for a fact that Omar and Ahmed Elmi, remember that name, scandalized, quote, scandalized the community in Minneapolis.
He apparently is the first person to go on record.
I should point out that the FBI is actually looking into this as well.
So, this is gaining some momentum when you get the president of the United States saying it's true.
So, Daily Mail saying it's true.
The FBI, according to the New York Post, is looking into it.
So, we don't have that information yet.
But apparently, if you listen to what has been reported here in the Daily Mail, Mr. Elmi and Ms. Omar scandalized, as I said, the community there in Minneapolis.
And this gentleman that goes by, Osman, Mr. Osman, is the first to go on record reporting this.
So, oh boy, right?
Like, oh boy.
So, what's the penalty for that one?
There are some penalties, but let's go through what we know according to the Daily Mail.
Ilhan Omar, they write, did marry her brother and that she would, quote, do what she had to do to get him the papers to be in the U.S.
I got to tell you, like, if this is all proven out, I don't even know what to say to this woman.
I think it comes with a 250.
Thousand dollar penalty and five years in jail.
But you know that Donald Trump is going to be chomping at the bit to revoke her citizenship under the circumstances because, by the way, there's some other weird things that have been going on.
Just think about the state of Minnesota right now, where they just kind of looked away, despite billions of dollars being stolen from U.s taxpayers.
Lovely, you know what's really fascinating?
She's the one that introduced the bill that armed, feeding our nation, feeding our future, forgive me with the millions and millions of dollars, billions that they would go on to then steal.
I mean, they've got lots of convictions and the majority are all coming from the 5th district of Minnesota.
So that doesn't really look very good, shall we say, for Minnesota, for the Somalian community or for one Ilhan Omar.
Just saying.
Okay, so back to the marriage here.
According to the story, it had long been rumored that Omar and Elmi were siblings, but because of a lack of paperwork that they had in war-torn Somalia, proof has never been uncovered.
Can I ask a question, guys?
In all seriousness, how the heck do you get to this country when you have no paperwork about who you are to begin with?
Okay, you're coming from a warrantor area.
I get it.
We take in refugees, blah, blah, blah.
But you got no paperwork whatsoever.
We don't know who your family is.
We take you in.
And apparently, according to the guy that lives in Minneapolis and is close to the Somalian community and used to be her friend, clearly he's not now, she married a brother?
So according to Mr. Osman, she said she needed to get papers for her brother to go to school.
We all thought that she was just getting papers to allow him to stay in the country.
But nope, apparently they got married, according to him.
She then became the second husband of one Ilhan Omar in 2009 and was married by a Christian minister.
Like that one threw me for a loop.
A Christian minister marries Ilhan Omar and this other guy.
