Muslim Congressional candidate Ilhan Omar swore to apparent falsehoods in court, while divorcing her brother
Despite this compelling evidence of dishonesty, Ilhan Omar will almost certainly be elected to Congress: voting against her would be “Islamophobic.” “State Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) Swore to Apparent Falsehoods in Court — While Divorcing Her Alleged Brother,” by David Steinberg, PJ Media, August 8, 2018:
Minnesota state Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-60B) is the presumed frontrunner for the MN-5 House seat being vacated by Rep. Keith Ellison (D). The seat is safely Democratic; Hollywood progressives, local party officials, and Minnesota media have all but scheduled the August 14 primary as her coronation. Their enthusiasm is rooted in Omar’s identity: she is a photogenic, hijab-wearing Muslim who entered the United States as a Somali child refugee.
Likely because of this, however, Omar’s media and party supporters have been aggressively uninterested in a disturbing allegation about Omar with legal ramifications: that in 2009, she seems to have married her brother. That allegation has been public for nearly two years without Omar addressing its specific foundations.
Newly uncovered evidence — exclusively published below — adds another allegation: Ilhan Omar has since signed off on apparent falsehoods, under penalty of perjury, during her 2017 divorce from the man in question: Ahmed Nur Said Elmi.
New Evidence, New Allegations Minnesota law deems court records of divorce proceedings to be available to the public. In 2017, several months after Omar’s marriage history briefly created a national news item, Omar quietly petitioned family court for a default divorce, claiming she could not locate Elmi. The above document depicts Omar, under penalty of perjury, attesting to the court that she has not had contact with her legal husband since June 2011. To those familiar with the 2016 coverage of this story, this claim should strike as a jaw-dropper. (Ed. note: scroll down below for a summary of the Ilhan Omar backstory.)
To reference just one example, the three immediately following photos were pivotal elements of the 2016 coverage. These pictures first appeared on Ilhan Omar’s personal Instagram account in 2014 (her username at the time was “hameey”), and depict Ilhan visiting Ahmed Nur Said Elmi in London that year.
In contrast to Omar’s attestation of zero contact since 2011, two of Omar’s three self-published photos here actually appear to show physical contact some three years later: There are many other examples of consistent social media communication — comments, likes — between the two since June 2011.
When confronted with the above pictures in 2016, UK resident Ahmed N. Elmi admitted to a reporter that he was indeed the scarved man in the three pictures. However, he also claimed to not know the name of the woman in the colorful head covering adjacent to him, and that she certainly was not his legal wife. He then gave the reporter a different birthdate for himself than the April 4, 1985, birthdate given for Ahmed Nur Said Elmi in Omar’s divorce petition. In short, he claimed to simply be a different Ahmed N. Elmi, who coincidentally happened to get photographed with Ilhan Omar at a London event. As with Ilhan’s self-published photos, this newly discovered post from Elmi’s confirmed Instagram account contradicts his claim:
On October 20, 2013, Elmi posted the above photos of himself in the hospital following minor surgery. Clearly, his hospital intake bracelet identifies his date of birth to be April 4, 1985. While other men named Ahmed Elmi have lived in the U.S. and London, there simply are no records to be found of another one sharing the exact birthdate as the Ahmed Nur Said Elmi whom Ilhan Omar divorced. Of course, this Ahmed Elmi has also been photographed with Ilhan Omar, and regularly communicated with her on social media. Piling on, note that a second known Instagram account belonging to Ilhan Omar, “ilhanmn,” commented on the above post in 2013. Her comment indicates that she knew how to reach Elmi by phone years after June 2011, another strike against her sworn claims.

Not sure if this has ever been seen, but due to the fact..she is under investigation for having her campaign pay for her divorce..this is interesting.
