Representative Ilhan Omar created a whirlwind of controversy when she deleted a tweet from 2013 that wished a Happy Father’s Day to a man named “Nur Said.”
“Happy Father’s Day to my aabo Nur Said, I am forever grateful to Allah for giving me the best father a …” the post reads, linking to a since-deleted Instagram post.

As reported at The Political Insider, Omar (D-MN) was reportedly engaged in civil marriage with a man many have speculated to be her brother, Ahmed Nur Said Elmi, from 2009 up until 2017.
In Somalia, a person’s name normally consists of a first name, followed by the father’s name and then the grandfather’s name.
The left-leaning Minneapolis Star-Tribune in June reported on documents that raised questions as to whether Omar married her own brother as a means to “skirt immigration laws.”

This tweet raises questions as to whether or not Ilhan’s real name is even Omar, and certainly lends some credence to the speculation. And Omar is most definitely concerned about its contents. She has since deleted it.
Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton asked, “Did Ilhan Omar delete MORE evidence she married her brother?”

PJ Media reporter David Steinberg, in a post from October of 2018, indicated he had spoken to classmates of Ahmed Nur Said Elmi, and had discovered “Elmi’s father was identified as the same man Ilhan Omar has always publicly referred to as her own father: Nur Said Elmi Mohamed.”

Imam Tawhidi, who goes by the ‘Imam of Peace’ on social media, explained in a Twitter thread the nuances behind surname usage in “most Muslim countries.”
“Most Americans don’t know that in most Muslim countries, the surname is actually the father’s name,” Tawhidi wrote, prior to calling for Omar’s resignation.
Your father is Nur Said?
Not: Nur Omar Mohamed?So you’re Ilhan Nur Said?
And you married Ahmed Nur Said,
You married your brother.
(Most Americans don’t know that in most Muslim countries, the surname is actually the father’s name)

‘Bint’ means ‘daughter of’. That’s usually not included in the official legal documents. What’s written is: Ilhan Nur Said. But spoken as: Ilhan Bint Nur Said.
‘Bint’ is an ARABIC word. Somalis don’t use ‘bint’.
If her dad is Nur Said, as she says.
Then she is: Ilhan Nur Said.

The liberal media went apoplectic back in July when President Trump suggested he had heard stories about the potential immigration fraud perpetrated by Omar. Rather than actually investigate since then, they condemned him for bringing up such a wild conspiracy.

“There’s a lot of talk about the fact that she was married to her brother,” Trump told reporters. “I know nothing about it. … I’m sure that somebody would be looking at that.”

But they didn’t, and now the story only moves along because somebody found an old tweet in Omar’s archives before she did. Will the media continue to whitewash this scandal as she seemingly is trying to do?
“The people who I love know who I am and what I care about,” Omar said following reports of an affair with a paid political consultant.
When will the mainstream media start asking questions about who she is and what she has done?

Any radicals like these crazies have no place in our government. Boot them out.
If she did this, she is playing it pretty cool, or playing games. Either way, as we speak, you can bet they’re trench digging and it’s not for oil! Omar should have learned when not to become a pain in the butt to the public and keep a low profile. And the picture shown of her in what could be an Al-Qaede training camp with a rifle in her hand, oops! As they say, Stupid is as stupid does!
#SENDHERBACK She doesn’t even like America.
DERKA DERKA DERKA!
MUHAMMED JIHAD!
Hateful disgusting, person. So being a lair is not such a big step for her is it. Just another day.
Well, DUH!
She is not a practicing Muslim. Avoids stoning. But then why does she wear that thing on her head?
When is something going to be done about this terrorist nasty evil puke, she does not belong in our government or even in our country, she HAS TO GO.
Impeach, fire or have HER RESIGN For the fraud she has done!! Then prosecutors should go after her for the CRIMES she has committed against we the PEOPLE!! Stop the DOUBLE STANDARD of JUSTICE!!!!!
Is there any way to rid our country of this vile woman? What is Pelosi afraid of, the MB or what? Omar and the Squad all need to be gone!!
What marries in the family, stays in the family.
yes there is a law it also in many states there are laws that prevent the marriage of a widow or widower from marrying a sibling of the deceased spouse
I am not sure , is there a law about marrying your own brother ????? Incest ????
If she weren’t given so much “air time” I would agree with you, but the MSM has elevated her along with the other members of the “Squad” to spokespeople for the Leftist in the Democrat Party
so much attention to such an unimportant person.
Cancer in any form is still cancer…Omar is cancer
Muslims are liars and she proves it…WAKE UP AMERICA…evil lives next to you…
How nice.
She should have been removed from office as soon as this came to light. She also needs to be deported, her United States citizenship be rescinded and she cannot step foot on American soil. Ever. Not even for the death of her parents or family.
Sorry you Omar supporters, her background is being investigated and it does not look pretty. Remember Dems, she is innocent until proven guilty. But for Dems, that is the opposite for everybody else.
She should be deported immediately she is not a citizen of the United states. She should step down from the office she is holding and leave the country . And take the rest of her communist cronies with her .aoc, Warren ,Presley ,Pelosi, and any other anti gun anti trump anti America socialist communist loving Democrats need to go live in north korea,russia ,china ,or wherever there is socialism. Otherwise known as communism for about ten years and see if yhey like it
The fact that she married her brother to get here has already been proven and published several times.,why are we still beating a dead horse? Fire her already.
No. Actually the Obama administration packed that precinct with transplanted Muslim immigrants. How thoughtful.
Voter fraud.
Sigh. Firstly, why is the woman in any office, anywhere? Didn’t know anything at all about her (or the rest of the Squatd) until they opened their mouths. Then… it was pretty obvious they had been elected by not saying a word…
Agreed. There is evidence a crime has been committed. Seek a warrant for a DNA test or obtain the samples through subterfuge.
Just do a DNA test to prove this farce!
Watching how she carries herself and acts snobbish and arrogant, that now makes total sense why she acts so cocky in public. She was a spoiled rich kid of enormous wealth and privilege. She doesn’t like white people, that’s quite obvious from past remarks.
Do you by chance know how I would be able to access this report? I would love to see it and see if I can share that thread on FB etc.
But she comes from a very wealthy family in Somali, lived behind a gated wall in luxury. She suffered absolutely non in Somali (“NONE”) I saw a report on her on OANN tonight ,. She made a statement that she had the most wonderful father ever. WHY IS SHE IN AMERICA ? She damn sure didn’t get persecuted none there !?
She’s here to destroy America !
She’s scared to go back. They’ll stone her to death there. They know who she really is.
Since she hates America so much it would be interesting to see her fight to remain here.
I say send her back to Somalia for a good stoning.
