BREAKING: Ilhan Omar Lawyers Up as New Evidence Points to More Alleged FRAUD | El Sayed Implodes In Series of New Interviews | Brazil is Bust
51m 4s
Ilhan Omar is at the center of a major federal investigation involving allegations of immigration fraud, financial misconduct, and potential familial ties that contradict public records. Authorities suspect she used a false name, possibly married her brother—alleged to be gay and working on research about queer violence in Kenya—and filed tax returns with a non-marital husband, raising questions about eligibility and honesty. Multiple campaign associates, including men with the surname Saeed, are implicated in a broader "Feeding Our Future" scandal linked to $250 million in fraud. Evidence includes social media posts where she refers to her brother as her father, and a 2024 claim of Somalia visits tied to foreign policy advocacy. She has hired elite legal counsel tied to both Joe Biden and Barack Obama, suggesting a political defense strategy amid mounting scrutiny. Critics argue that the investigation may extend beyond immigration to target systemic fraud in Somali-American communities, with concerns over misused campaign funds, false statements about her age and family, and unexplained financial flows. The situation has sparked public outrage, with some predicting her citizenship could be revoked, and federal raids on her home revealing documents related to missing funds. The controversy has also drawn attention to political hypocrisy, as figures like Barack Obama have publicly supported her despite the allegations. The case is seen as a complex intersection of personal, financial, and political misconduct, with potential criminal charges looming. A major question remains: whether her actions represent personal deception or part of a larger network of fraud targeting immigrant communities.
Welcome to the Big Show, everyone. Gosh, I mean, it's been more 48 hours since we last got an Ilhan Omar update. And I got like 10 of them to tell you about today. I mean, there's so much going on. And I've been doing some digging over the weekend into Ilhan Omar's past, into feeding our future into a strange thing with everyone somehow being named Saeed. Right? Like that's her name. Well, not everyone, but a few of them that were somehow involved in feeding our future. And so that leads us to ask the question, did she have the cousins and the extended relatives all on the payroll somehow, some way via feeding our future via your taxpayer dollars. These are the questions that the feds are trying to get to the bottom of. And this is the reason why right now she's worried, she's panicked, she's probably going to have to resign, she's gone out and hired some big deal, big shot lawyers that worked for Joe Biden. And she's hoping she can cling onto this narrative, but allegedly it's all just bogus. Welcome to the show. I'm Trish Riggum. Make sure you subscribe, share, like, make a comment. Ilhan Omar leaving us with a whole lot of questions here because there's new evidence that seems to be against her right now. This coming out, if you're just joining us for this story, well, I recommend you watch a few back episodes because you got to get caught up, but just to get you caught up from where we were as we left on Friday, we've got Ilhan Omar now hiring these auto pen attorneys. You remember how Joe Biden paid big bucks to get a couple of these attorneys in there? Well, Ilhan has gone out and hired them. Don't forget Obama's in over his head on this one too now, Obama went really long. We found out over the weekend, I mean, I actually kind of knew this, I just wasn't really highlighting it much because there's so much to talk about, but the second husband says he's gay. So the second husband, aka the brother, according to Jeanine Puro and the president and DHS, et cetera, the vice president as well. He's not only her brother, he's also gay, so she's got to answer for those questions. I'm going to get into the evidence for that. They do say that her name is nurse Said Elmi, Ilhan, nurse Said Elmi, not Ilhan Abdulahi Omar, which is what she was going as in part because she may have allegedly had to take that name when she came here because her dad, who's believed to be Said Elmi, nurse Said Elmi, was connected with some horrific stuff back in the day in Somalia. So that's what is being dug into right now, but that's not it, like it's bigger. It is bigger than that, and I think the reason why she's so scared right now and can't just high-tailed out of the country is you're talking about enormous amounts of fraud that potentially involved not just Ilhan Omar and her husband, it is believed he already has somewhat of a, how shall we say, a suspect track record having been accused of fraud at various times. He's got to deal with the financial angle of this and it may actually ensnare lots of people and a lot of people that she knows. So Ilhan Omar's deleted tweet may reveal that she did marry her brother. What is that about? This is the new one that came out over the weekend. We've had so many social media things that have come out that have linked Ilhan Omar to somebody that wasn't named Omar. Okay, so the dad seems to have been Said Elmi. Here she is talking about Nurse Said, "Happy Father's Day to Abu," I guess that means like grandfather. Nurse Said, "I am forever grateful to Allah for giving me the best father." Okay, here we go. Okay, she couldn't read it. There it is. For those of you in the cheap seats, if you're watching on mobile, you can see the whole tweet which apparently went up on Instagram there as well, and this is from the web archive. Okay, "Happy Father's Day to Abu Nurse Said, I am forever grateful to Allah for giving me the best father." So this is really, really not good because again, if you go back on the social media stuff, you see that the second husband, allegedly the brother, who volunteers that he's gay, and was raised by her alleged older sister who calls the same guy on Facebook and Instagram Nurse Said, she calls him dad. I mean, and so by the way, this is her sister. I know it sounds confusing. I know, I know, like I've had to draw a chart and everything. I think that was in the last show on Friday, but Rebel News was on to this in 2019. As was, of course, Powerline. We had the founder, co-founder of Powerline on the show last week on Thursday, and he spelled it out for us. He'd been on it for 10 years, and then Rebel News picked it up. Rebel News in 2019, so credit to them. We have this on record. They were pursuing this. Everybody's been pursuing it, and perhaps one of the things that you should be most frustrated about, I certainly am, is that it's taken this long to really see the light of day. There should have been a full-throated investigation years ago. There never was. There was just drips and drabs and Biden's Treasury Department looking into her and Biden's DOJ looking into her, but by gosh darn it, this woman really needed to be looked into. Here is the clip I want to show you. 2019. If I could get a moment of your time, could you tell me why you filed illegal tax returns in 2014 and 2015? Can you tell me definitively or not is Ahmad Elsie your brother? For the Maka? Yeah. Is he your brother? From the middle of the legislative reason. We're going down. Is he your brother? It's four and a fairs. I'll go with you. Four and a fairs. Can you tell me definitively yes or no? Is he your brother? And why can't you answer that question? Why did you refer to him as your child's uncle on Instagram and why did you lie on court documents saying that you hadn't seen him since 2011 when in fact you had been talking to him all the time on Instagram. Sir, we're not doing ambush interviews. This isn't an ambush. You can send me a email. Why are you so afraid to answer these questions? She's not talking to him. I mean they had the right questions. How can anyone take you credibly on the student loan tax file when you were cheating on your taxes in 2014? Okay. So what is referring to there? How can you call for Donald Trump's tax filings when you did when nobody can trust you on file at all? Okay. This is important. What he's actually talking about. The Rebel News reporter is saying you cheated on your tax filings. I think to be more specific what the concern is and we talked about this with the reporter from Powerline last week, the concern is that she was filing taxes in 2014, I believe she did over a period of two years, while married to the second husband, aka the alleged brother, she was filing taxes with the first husband who she only married in her faith. The second husband, they were married in a Christian ceremony and it got rubber stamped, right? City hall, the whole bit. But yet she was still having kids with the first husband and she was filing taxes. I mean, like how dumb do you have to be? Okay, guys, I'm sorry. But like how dumb do you have to be because like the 30 million bucks that came out of thin air and then disappeared? How dumb do you have to be? What dumb do you have to be to be filing taxes with the guy who's not a freaking husband? All right? Like, whoa. It just keeps getting worse and worse and worse for her and what's shocking to me and really disgusting to me is the idea that Barack Obama is going to get long on this one. That's smart. And he is smart. Okay. So I'm just going to say, like you say what you want about Barack Obama and I don't have a lot of love loss for that guy, but I'll tell you, he's not a dummy. So why the heck is he out there going long on Ilhan Omar right now when we're learning everything and it's like it's cascading. It's just every single day. I have so much more that I have a lot to share with you, buckle up for this show. So I guess my question is why is such a smart, politically calculating guy like Barack Obama coming out and getting long Ilhan Omar? It tells you that they see this as a political battle. They don't care about right or wrong. I don't think anymore. It's just all politics. So she's going long herself getting these attorneys involved from the Biden campaign despite all this evidence out there there. Take a look. She's calling the guy who goes by a different name on Facebook, a name that's the same as the second husband. She's calling him her father. This is problematic for them. And there's a certain irony to all of this because right before all of this hit, right before the raid went down, now over a week ago, she got out there and made this little tiktok. And you know, it's just kind of funny. She might have wanted to be a little bit more careful. She might not have wanted to run for office, frankly, in the first place. Going to find out that, you know, we're coming after their corruption. We are going to carry out severe oversight so that the American people understand just how corrupt the Trump administration has been, how much they've been stealing from people and how much they've enriched themselves. We're going to talk about these attention centers that people are being disappeared into,
people are dying in, and we're going to talk about the ways in which they're exploiting our tax dollars to make a name for themselves. Gus, she might be a little worried about getting put in one of those detention centers rather soon herself, huh? A lot of questions about whether or not she's going to have her citizenship revoked this year, and our thanks to Kalshi for their support of this show. You can actually trade on this, believe it or not, I looked it up. While the U.S. move to remove Ilhan Oman citizenship, will the U.S. move to remove it this year? And interestingly, the other day, I checked this on Friday, it was at 46 percent, and then all this news started coming over the weekend and into today. And what do you know? We're up to 48 percent. So basically, about half, you know, not quite half of those that are trading on this right now are saying, yes, that they actually think that the U.S. is going to revoke her citizenship. It moved to do so this year. So before January 1st of 2027, I get a few things to say on Kalshi. When we get to Brazil, I'll tell you a little bit more because of one of my, my friend and colleague, actually, over at 76 research, was complaining because everybody thought that remember Lula was going to lose, and it was going to be Bolsonaro. And of course, is Brazilian, Brazil ETF was like flying. And then it turned out to be the other way, and he said, I should have hedged it on on Kalshi, believe it or not. I'll explain to you what you could have done if you were concerned about that and what he wishes he did do. But anyway, trade 25, get 55 right now. That's a special offer with Trish. Go to Kalshi.com/R, Ford/Trish, again, Kalshi.com/R, Ford/Trish, trade $25, get $55, but I'm telling you, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, Ilhan, honey, you are in trouble. And then you double down on the trouble, Ilhan Omar, going to vote. Oh my gosh. I mean, she could be, you know, heck of a lot of trouble if this is not her name, and she's not only a congressperson who ran for election under this different name, and we talked about it. You know, it'd be one thing, right? If your passport said whatever her name was, and maybe she had a quote, unquote, stage name or married name or anything like that, people have pointed out that other people have other names. And certainly, you know, working in television, you meet a lot of women in this business that have one name that's their maiden name, and then another name that is their married name. But it's not that. No, no, no. It seems according to the feds that she really does have another name that she was born with, and they deliberately went with Omar, perhaps because they needed to shield themselves from the concerns that would have erupted back in 1995 if somebody had figured out whose family he was part of the father. And so they were talking about getting rid of her derivative citizenship. But again, you got to ask yourself, who is she voting under? What is the name that she is registered to vote under? I'm going to assume it's Ilhan Omar, and the feds are going to say, yeah, we got you on that one, too. Here she is with a big production of it on Friday. Walking out of the polling place there in Minnesota, in Minneapolis, with all the paparazzi around her. She tells them to have a nice day. Remind people of vote. Oh, yes. Of course. Remind everybody to vote. They're really concerned that this is somehow going to turn into an effort to suppress the Somali vote there in Minnesota, so she's very worried about that as well, and is accusing the president of that, you see a similar storyline coming out of Michigan, which I'll get to, with El Saeed thinking that what's going on in Minnesota is actually going to be hurtful to the Middle Eastern voters there in Michigan as well as Minnesota. She did go in, get a little R&R, I guess. Here she is with the hubby. There was some like Middle Eastern rock music playing in the background, which we took out for copyright purposes, but just be aware of it, because it kind of like is jarring when you see it next to the beautiful Minnesota lakes for whatever that's worth. Look, you know, I'm just saying less scrolling, more scrolling, she said, enjoying our beautiful Minnesota lakes. And of course, who doesn't have like the wedding photographer handy in the background ready to make this whole little montage for you? You know what this is about? This is about Ilhan trying to cover her. You know what? And we have a story together, right? She's trying to act like everything is a okay, why? because she went MIA for over a week. And then she came out and begged for money. And then she went and did that disastrous MS now interview with that disaster of an excuse for a reporter. I keep wanting to say it's Rachel Maddow, but Rachel is actually smarter than this guy. He's like a little clone. He looks a lot alike. They look a lot alike. Anyway, she's out there trying to pretend like everything is okay. The lawyer must be telling her we want you to project this image of com cool and collected and that everything's fine, but I'll tell you everything's not fine because of what we're going to get into right now, okay? It looks like hubby number two, hubby number two, aka, according to the feds, the brother is gay. Okay? Now, I'm not wrong with that, but it seems a little odd under the circumstances that Ilhan would have married a gay guy, right, especially with her religion and everything. And how do we know that he's gay? Well, he is getting a PhD in some kind of, well, sociology field. I can't remember exactly what the degree is, but it has to do with gay studies in Africa and this anti-colonialism and stuff. I don't know, it's got a big, big, big, big, long name, it's a bunch of gibberish, okay? Anyway, it's to keep him entertained, I guess, while he's living the life as a gay man, he writes. So the East African diaspora, my fieldwork was never neutral. This is his paper that he's writing on researching queer violence in Kenya. So this is hubby number two. And I went back and I found the original paper, guys. This is the abstract. It's called out in the field, funnily little play on words, you know, because field reporter, you're reporting from the field, or he's out, out in the field. Notes on researching queer violence in Kenya by Ahmed Elmi at the University of Bristol. And he talks about the ethical, emotional, and methodological complexities of conducting all this research on queer phobic violence in Kenya. And so how do we know that he's gay? Well, if you go to the second page on this thing, and it's called the Open Review, volume 2026, I mean, you just put it out and they haven't taken this one down. It says right here, let's see, okay, here we go. If you can read to the middle, I should have highlighted it. As a gay man of the East African diaspora, my fieldwork was never neutral. I was shaped by tension, risk, intimacy, and vulnerability while navigating the challenge of this research. I immersed myself in a lived, in the lived experiences that the people I spoke with while also negotiating my own safety and the complexities of my identity. So it sounds like the, I almost said the brother, the alleged brother, okay, we're going to go with the ledge just because we have to right now. But anyway, the alleged brother is gay. Me number two is gay and that's, that's a fact. You know what, that is a fact because he says so himself in his 2026 research paper for the University of Bristol. He's volunteering it. I mean, you could have said what we looked at his Instagram and he calls himself a dirty dandy and he's got lots of pictures that look very flamboyant. That would be hearsay, okay, that would not be actual. He says he is gay. So let's go back just for a quick second and listen to that little snippet with Chris Hayes, aka Rachel Maddell over at MS Now where Ilhan Omar is asked if this was her brother. >> You were not related to him at all. >> Not that bad. >> Not that bad. >> So there's just a weird kernel of truth that through some game that was- >> Not through my knowledge. >> That was the big gotcha, right, in terms of what you're talking about promising. Like we're going to nail her on the marriage. >> Yeah. >> I don't understand the not to my knowledge. That must have been some kind of coach legal thing and I think it was a coach legal thing because that happened the same day she was out begging for $5 or $10 for her legal fees. So she must have brought those lawyers and she knew she was going to have these pretty steep bills and somebody told her, I don't think it's very good advice. I think Alan Derschwood's had the best advice at all. He went on news nation and he was like, you know, if she were my client. I would tell her you stopped talking immediately, like just stopped talking to any interviews, like you got to weed through all this, but I think you also have the political context in the background and you've got the Barack Obama's of the world in the background that are trying to get out in front of this story and they're trying to use it for all its worth ahead of the election and so they do want her out there. So what do you say when if you happen to be someone like Ilhan Omar that may have married your gay brother and it's all coming out? What would you say? Not to my knowledge. I mean unbelievable this whole life that she's led is just wild and I've got more, okay? This case is big.
bigger than you think, I know we talked about immigration front, I know that we've talked about the RICO effect and like possibly thousands of people in the Minneapolis area being sent out of the country if they're able to conduct these DNA tests and find that everybody is not who they said they were because I told you back in 2008, what happened in 2008? Bush had to shut down the P3 program that was bringing in the extended families because it turns out when they did a random sampling, 80 percent of the people had no DNA relationship to the people they were bringing in, so the thinking is Omar was just a family that brought them into Arlington, Virginia and that's how she got in the door but the real name stayed with the people over in London, including what is alleged to be the brother, the second husband, I mean the president is like you know she's a mess, her whole life is a mess, the whole life is a giant scam, listen to him here. I love that question, I love that question, she should have but look what she did is her whole life is a scam, it's what I was looking for, her whole life is a total scam, so she's got trouble ahead of her, this is why she's got these lawyers but the new tweet calling her dad, dad and him going by name that's the same as the brothers forgive me, second husband's name, this is where it starts to get really complicated, so she brought in a couple of lawyers that worked for Biden, they were the lawyers that were brought in because of the auto pen stuff and so this explains why she was getting so desperate, she did ask for money right, anything she was pleading, this was like the only thing we heard from her, she had not said boo and then this, thank you so much again and please continue to support us, it is going to be a very expensive and challenging time and so we appreciate whether you're able to send 5, 10, 20, thank you, you know I kind of wonder in some ways, I wonder if that's even legal in and of itself because we confronted that, remember when Latisha James was trying to use campaign funds and wanted to use that to cover her own personal legal bills associated with her having bought real estate and said that that was her permanent address, even though it was a different state from the state that she was running in and elected it and so that really is something that should be classified as a personal expense and in this case Ilhan Omar, how is this a political expense, I mean this is your own marriage mess up so I'm not sure why and she could run into trouble for that, we spoke when we talked to Scott Johnson the other day, he said that she had historically been in a lot of trouble for that very similar type stuff in the state of Minnesota because she was using campaign funds for her personal legal bills, in other words this has come up before, it's been hanging around for a freaking decade for goodness sakes and now we're finally, finally seeing it all come to fruition but the reason we're seeing it come to fruition now, maybe for a reason and that this is a much larger case than you think, this may not be about something as simple as immigration fraud heck they'd let her get away with it for so long, what is the change now, does it have anything to do with the $17 billion that we're stolen from taxpayers in the state of Minnesota Mark Garagos speaking on Newsmax the other day, basically said exactly what I'm thinking here, now he's got a legal background, I don't, but I got a heck of a lot of common sense he'll be amazed how far that'll get you in life, I was thinking there's something more here, maybe it's because they want to go after the entire Minneapolis population of Somalians that they feel are fraudulently here and became citizens in a fraudulent way that could be part of it, but I think it's even bigger and I think it's related back to all of the money that has gone missing, listen to what Mark says, very famous attorney of course as you know, here he is. Federal government has this interesting method of, you know, we're telling you it's one thing and then look over here so I don't think this has anything to do frankly with immigration or revoking immigration, I think that this is all a ruse to get in there and get at her documents that have to do with corruption. You see, so he could be right, I mean think about what they took, remember she told us they took her electronics, they took her phones, they took a, we were called a burner phone, she called it her travel phone, that she takes with her to Somalia. There's news out today, a 2024 tweet has resurfaced from a gentleman who claims that Ilhan Omar visited Somalia's Puntland region and met with local and federal leaders and leaked information about I guess some of what you and US intelligence had told her, don't forget she was on the Foreign Affairs Committee, she has supported a unified Somalia, you have that Somalia land that's been looking to break off so there's a succession effort there and it has created a very divided Somalia in some ways. So what if she was using or leveraging information she was getting from the Foreign Affairs Committee to be able to have some kind of influence back there in Somalia and what if she was being paid to do so? That's another big question. They took her burner phone, travel phone. They took her daughter's old phone, they took her regular phone, a phone that had just been replaced, they took her computer, they took her husband's notebooks, why? Because they're trying to figure out that whole 30 million dollars that materialized out of nowhere and then suddenly disappeared again. I just keep saying, you know, Ilhan this would be so much easier if we could just do a Jerry Springer style DNA test, a big reveal, right? Just for all of America to see and then we could save ourselves a heck of a lot of these problems. I want to go to, I've got some more Sunday, is this from Mike Davis? Maybe not. I'm going to surprise you. We'll surprise ourselves. Not to my knowledge is a legal defense, it reminds me. This is alright. This is Clay Travis. Travis. So I think he has a legal background. He's making a point that this is kind of weird. This is kind of weird that it is coming to this right now. In other words, I think he's in the Mark Garagos camp. He's also saying that when you say, not to my knowledge about the husband that might be your brother, it's just not a normal way to answer a question and you might have been a very legalized stylized version of answering, but not answering. Let's go to Clay. Not to my knowledge is a legal defense. It reminds me of Bill Clinton, remember back in the day with Monica Lewinsky when he said that depends on what the meaning of the word is, is lawyers talking very specific ways. They give advice to clients in very specific ways. Not to my knowledge feels like her laying the groundwork for a defense from potential criminal charges that might be coming. Wow. Wow. Wow. So I think that's the big question now. Are we going to see criminal charges? I think we are. I mean, I think that that's going to, I think that that's effectively the groundwork that Jeanine Piero prepared for us the other day. And there's a bunch of issues right at stake. One, the age, two, who was the father, Jeanine Piero, really alluding heavily to that in her interview that she did last week on Fox News. Basically, it's, you know, in this case, not who you say you are, but what you aren't. In other words, they need to make sure that her dad was not some kind of warlord there who was terrorizing people in Somalia and then coming to the US after the fact for refugee status. So that's going to be part of it. And then the other big is what happened vis-à-vis feeding our future, which is where I want to take you right now. I have a question. Why is every single person named Saeed, all right, well, not everyone, just four? Okay, just four, associated with the feeding our future scandal. The Saeed connection here, I listen them out for us. You had Saline Ahmed Saeed. This is the guy that owned the Safari restaurant where she had her big victory party. What was he, a cousin? Another brother? He was one of the biggest, biggest broadsters of all. He was taking him five to six million himself. They got him on 21 counts of wire fraud. They got him a money laundering, they got him on bribery. And he's the one that hosted the campaign dinner and he just happens to have, again, that name Saeed keeps coming up. I don't think it's his common as Mohammed. His last name is Saeed, similar to the ex-husband, aka brothers name, similar to what the feds think her name is. Again, just going back here, they think it's Ilhan Nur Saeed, Elmi. So why is everyone, well, not again, everyone, but at least four of these broadsters in the $250 million scam feeding our future, why are they all with the last name Saeed? So you get the restaurant tour, okay, then you've got this guy, Guhad Hashi Saeed. He ran something called the Youth Athletic Development. He claimed he was giving out 5,000 meals a day.
He may be more heavily connected to Ilhan than it's been reported thus far. So Mr. Guhad Hashi Selid, or Said, was actually one of our campaign workers. But more than that, he was somebody who had been in trouble with the law, apparently, had been accused, according to Powerline, very good source on this story, for having stabbed somebody three times. And then after this stabbing event, he comes to work on Ilhan Omar's campaign. So a lot of people are like, why would that be? Maybe it's because he's some kind of family relation. He was effectively the enforcer for the campaign when word first leaked out about her possibly having married her brother. He went around and intimidated the Somali community, according to Alpha News. I'll get there in a second. I just want to give you the rundown of who we're talking about. There's another guy named Said Erig, and he was kind of a financier in all of this. He has pled not guilty. He's a waiting trial. He has not yet been tried. He was the owner of a particular grocery store, and they think that he was somehow involved in this as well. And then there was Said Shafi Farah, who was the owner of what they called a shell company. He was acquitted on fraud charges, but he did plead guilty to juror bribery. He was the guy who put $120,000 cash into a paper bag and tried to bribe one of the jurors into giving a not guilty verdict. So he's still waiting for his sentencing. So that leaves us sort of focused on the first two. I think it's worth taking a good hard look at least for today's purposes, because we don't have five hours. But I will bring you up to speed on Saleem Ahmed, Said, tomorrow, the restaurant owner. This guy, the second one, Guhad Hashis Said. This is a picture of him right here. And he's the guy who was sort of with her all the time, considered by Al-Fah News, which is another blog that had done considerable amount of reporting on this. They thought him to be a kind of enforcer, like the, you know, the, the powwow, you know, like every mafia family needs one, right? Hey. He is the campaign worker. So he's working under Timmy Minette. And he doesn't have Said in his name here, but he's going by Guhad Hashis. So Guhad Hashis was the guy who basically tried to intimidate much of the Saleem community into not talking about that marriage. And we know this because there was a big article done by a reporter named Preya, Sam Dunar, and Al-Fah News 10 years ago. And she titled it a community forced into silence and said that this guy that you're looking at, Said, is a repugnant character of the thug variety. Scott Johnson, referring to her reporting saying I was told in 2019 that Hashis entered the United States with Omar as Guhad Omar. So there are some people, including David Steinberg, who has written a lot for Powerline as well and has put a lot on his Twitter account, another one of these Minneapolis guys. He actually thinks this guy is her brother, she's got a view of him. He said his brother slash cousin close relationship. He said it would be, it would be unusual for somebody to just be a hired hand to have gone around and intimidated the Samallian community like that, but that it would be more possible if he was actually a family relation. He claimed he could actually take care of family members back home in Samalia as well, and he was running for a parliament seat apparently at the time to himself back there. I mean, now he's in jail, so that's not really working out so well for him. Anyway, Scott writes, I was told in 2019 that Hashis entered the US with Omar as Guhad Omar and reclaimed his name when he became a citizen. According to my source, Omar was his fake sister and he was her fake brother, although they may have had a familiar relationship of a more distant kind. Okay, confusing, like I said, here is the original article that Preya wrote, a community forced into silence, she's alleging by this guy, and this is her sources. If I go back to that article, she has a source called Z, and Z, she got very in tight with the smallly community, and they were initially very, very, I'm told reluctant to speak because this guy, again, the one who was working on the campaign for Ilhan that is believed to be some kind of relation, because again, his last name would be Saeed too, it's thought that he was intimidating people, and this is what she writes, Z is the source, tells Alphanus members of the smallly community are being silenced through intimidation tactics and threats of physical violence on themselves and their families still back home in Samalia. Z specifically mentions a man named Gulad Hashi and identifies him as campaign muscles. Z tells Alphanus, he serves as Omar's muscle in the smallly community and has been leading a witch hunt to out the snitch in the community. He has used everything from intimidation to threats to silence community members from speaking out about this, which is why no Somali has publicly come forward to state what we all know to already be true. So then Alphanus actually obtained a Facebook post by this guy, which was a picture of the Somali spot website, that was the original website that started reporting this, and if you look at this, they actually translated it, and I don't have the translation in front of me, but I was looking at it earlier and effectively because I speak a lot of languages, but this is one. I'm going to say fortunately, I do not, but this is him and he's basically telling anyone if you come out and you speak to this website or if you start sharing this information, then you are in jeopardy and your family is in jeopardy, including your family back home in Somalia. So now we're layering on more crimes here, right? As she could say, plausible deniability, I had no idea. I had no idea. Well, I mean, for starters, you hired a guy to work on your campaign that apparently had just gotten out of doing time for having stabbed someone. So you know, there is that judgment thing. I mean, she's got to be terrified to just do the DNA test. I'm telling you, gosh, we lost Jerry Springer, I think a couple of years ago. He would have been all. You would have set the whole thing up. We would have had a nice prime time special. Donald Trump could have even done an intro. It would have been great, right? It would have been great. So now I think she's going to be faced with resignation, really. Or she's just going to get thrown out of Congress. The president called on her the other night to resign. She doesn't want to do that, right? She went out and lawyer it up. So now it's a question of if she wins this election, does she even get to keep the seat? Because there is this rule. I think it requires two-thirds of Congress, but you could actually see members of Congress voting her out. The sad thing about this guy, it's the sad thing, is Obama's already tipped his hand. So he's told the entire Democrat Party where to come out on this. It's like they don't care about reality. You could have the DNA staring them in the face, right? And they're still going to say, no, no, no, no, no, you can have all the names staring them in the face. No, no, no. This is just political. This is just Donald Trump. I'm sorry. You know what? At some point, push comes to shove. And we have a law for a reason. Let's go to Mike Davis, the former attorney for the president of the United States. His Democrat DC judge, three weeks before the midterm elections, is ordering a home raid on a sending member of Congress, a Democrat member of Congress. That means that it is more likely than not that federal agents will find evidence of a federal crime inside of that house. And if you believe the news reporting, there are a lot of potential crimes. But Elon Omar lie about her age, claiming she was a minor to get derivative citizenship from her father. Was she 17 where she can get derivative citizenship or 18 where she could not? Did she marry her brother? There are many, there are many potential crimes, including her wealth, that has gone from modest to 30 million back to modest with no explanation. So, I think that that's actually going to be a big sticking point. I've told you about all the money that was coming out of Minneapolis airport. It's insane. More money than any other airport in the country going out cash and suitcases. Somewhere around $700 million over the span of two years, that is insane, okay? Absolutely positively insane. And that's just what they declared. Like was there more? And it was going where? Somalia. Dubai. Other parts of Africa. I'm telling you guys, this is what I think fundamentally is the real reason they're after her so hard. Not that they shouldn't be after her for immigration fraud, obviously that's a big deal. And I think a lot of people might get swept up on in that. But I think the $17 billion in the fact that Treasury was already looking at her under Biden, that's really where this is heading. And I think if you listen closely to what Mike is saying as he talks about the 30 million that was there and then suddenly wasn't there. If you listen, also to Mark Garagos and what he's saying, there's a lot of reason for them to be very, very suspicious of her right now. Of course, again, she's doubling down on this idea that it's going to be intimidating. We're going to get everybody out to vote because nobody's going to want to vote because you know, it's going to have a big effect. Said seeing the exact same thing out there in Michigan, Said, Abdul El Said is having a very hard time, a very hard time of his own because every single time this guy goes on TV. his rage comes out. I mean, you could just feel it. All right, this is one angry dude.
one angry dude, he's even got the Wolverine, you know, stuff going on with the face and everything, and it's like just rage is coming right out of him constantly, constantly, constantly. You could see it. I mean in that NBC news report, right? That he got so darn mad, so darn mad at that reporter that dared to dare to challenge him. Well that reporter, he was a good one. I can't say the same for Kristen Welker the Sunday anchor on that meet the press. She just, you know, she's like milk toast. This lady, all right? Either that, she's just in the tank for L. Said and maybe it's a combination of both. I was going to show you L. Said and the rage, but first let's let's go to Ms. Welker who's got some rage perhaps of her own from Mike Rogers and doesn't seem to know when she's just ban a run over by Abdul L. Said who thinks she's a joke. You know, lady. I'd start paying attention. Next time someone lies to you, you might not be so willing to go along with it and yet she is. Listen to this. Yes, Congressman, he has denied and denounced the Muslim brotherhood and denied any ties to them for contacts. I just want to talk about what you're talking about, Chris. He did an interview with me and he said he had no ties to the brotherhood. He won't answer a local newspaper. No, I don't want to talk about the 2012 letter. No, you should be held accountable. Okay, let's talk about that 2012 letter. I want to give folks some context. I get it. I get it. Egyptian. I get you guys to defend this guy. No, I think it's unbelievable. Let me just give some context. Let me have held him accountable. We've asked him hard questions. America ought to look like. Let me, let me just give some context to the 2012 letter that you're talking about. Egyptians were rising up against a brutal dictatorship. This is unbelievably stupid. So he was once the head of the intelligence committee and he's, she's trying to like put him and link him with the Muslim brotherhood. It's like so beyond stupid, but you should hear it. We should hear it together. Let's listen to the whole bit. It's, it's not that long. I'll say it. As you said, he joined that letter which supported the protesters against Egypt's dictator. Not the Muslim brotherhood as a group, but this is what you said congressman in 2012. I want to put up what you said at the time. I gosh. Do I think there are moderate Muslim brotherhood individuals? We are going to have to reach out to and talk to yes, but we are going to have to watch it carefully. Do you acknowledge that at the time in 2012, you were willing to work with some moderate members as you said of the Muslim brotherhood? Yeah. That is so much out of, I wish you had done this for Abdul Al-Sahid. That would have been a great interview. But what you're doing now is trying to twist this thing to defend your position for letting him lie to you in the American public in the citizens of Michigan. Here, let me tell you what that was about. I'm happy to talk to you about what that was about. So what happened was we had relationships where Israel and Egypt had relationships in their intelligence services that the Muslim brotherhood was trying to undo. And what that would have meant is more violence in the region. So as chairman of the intelligence committee, I said, we're going to have to find a way to try to not sever that relationship, which they did, by the way. And so listen, there are, when you talk about the Muslim brotherhood as an ideology, it's a political group. Five Muslim countries have banned the Muslim brotherhood because they're so extreme. And Abdul Al-Sahid not only has family relations, which he lied about, he not only had his own letter that he said supporting them, including purging the press. I don't know about you, but you should probably be concerned about that. And secondly, you have some idea that you don't know. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. I got it. You're trying to defend a dual. I understand. Here, other part of that is the Muslim brotherhood only one candidate in the country. Did they support a primary win? One, Abdul Al-Sahid. The money that he gets ought to be a factor in this. So you take his way, he thinks, the way he supported them. And by the way, the Muslim brotherhood immediately started making women as second class citizens. I think that's an issue. I mean, that's just not consistent with American value. And so if you're going to elect somebody to go to the United States Senate who wants to be on the Foreign Affairs Committee, we probably should know this. And as a former FBI guy, I can tell you this, Kristen, when you lie about who you are, he said he was a physician. He's not. When he said he's a dual citizen of Egypt, we don't think that you say that you're an immigrant from North Africa. Those are disqualifying for you because you've lied about who you are. Oh my gosh. Like she's like, oh, but he does have an empty. He does. He does. He went to medical school. He never did a residency and he never practiced. It's kind of like, you know, the poor girl that got tossed as the press secretary, right? She went to law school, but she never passed the bar exam. So she couldn't call herself an attorney. Same reason why he can't call himself a practicing physician because he's not. All right. So yes, he did lie about that. Why on earth? I mean, this is, I'm telling you, this is what's wrong with so many people. Kristen, Welker, Walker, whatever name is on NBC, a great example. Like study exhibit A because she is what is wrong with so many idiotic fools in this country who just think, oh, well, you know, it's racist to say this. Therefore we're going to, we're going to go bend over backwards to say the other. I mean, maybe for all I know, she really likes the Muslim brotherhood. Okay. Like, I don't know, but I'm just telling you if somebody had lied through their teeth like that to me right to my face on national TV. And then I had to send my cub reporter out to chase him down. And he treated my cub reporter like he treated that guy. Do you know how mad I would be? I would be furious. And yet this girl is too dense to get it. Okay. Here's the NBC news report. One of her reporters had to go chase down Abdul al-Sahid. And he was just, you know, freaking out because that's what he does. Wolverines and all. Kristen Welker asked about ties to the Islamist movement, the Muslim brotherhood. You don't have any ties. No. And your family doesn't know. But newly revealed past tweets from al-Sahid's half-sister appearing to call his answer and to question. These tweets have emerged now had an amazing talk with my mom about her activism in the Muslim brotherhood during the early 70s while she was in college. Hashtag respect. My family has long been an MB. Let me finish praying for all my family that supports the MB in Egypt. Can you just explain it? Yeah, Tom. It's funny to me. I was born in 1984 down the street in Rochester Hills. I was raised here in Michigan, went to the University of Michigan, rebuilt the health department in the city, led the health department in this county. And you want to ask me about what was happening in Egypt in 1970. Are you serious? I get it, but you were asked a question. Is it kind of like an answer? It's kind of like the same. Yeah, I'm telling you, like, we, I have no ties. We have no ties. So your mother had no ties. I have never had these conversations with my mother. I was raised. So you were, you were unaware. But, but I'm just telling you that like, you're using hearsay evidence from a tweet. I said, she's not serious. It's just serious. But you've also got to tell you the president right now, you've also gone after the right truthfulness. So when people ask you a question, they all do expect the truth. And do you think, do you think, are you, are you insinuating that somehow is lying? I don't know. That's why I'm asking. And I'm telling you I was not. And Al Sayed has faced scrutiny over this debate answer. Who do you think is a bigger threat to the United States? Yeah. That debate answer. Who, who do you think is the bigger threat to the United States? Is it Iran or is it Israel? And three, yes, is what his answer was on that one. Let's just say he doesn't think Iran is a threat, right? Anyway, bread bear. It's not just NBC. He gets all upset with, wow, you should have seen bread bear. I got to hand it to Brett. New respect, okay? New respect. This was an outstanding exchange. I want you to watch this because he really pushes him hard on the questions that frankly, Kristen should have been pushing on. Here we go. Bread bear, take it away. Mike Rogers has been really hitting this Muslim brotherhood thing. I know you don't want to talk about your family and the history there. But he goes back. He goes back. Let me just let me just let me just let me just stop there. You are asking this question. No, no, see how he owes interrupts always interrupts tries to take the floor right back from the reporter. Brett's not going to let him do it. What do you raise a question about? I'm not whether or not I have dual oil. Let me just be clear. His campaign title will be in the country of the United States. Thank you. And as as every senator who's ever served, I will swear an oath to that constitution. He's not interested. I'm not interested in any of the other things. In the 2012, 2012 statement in a letter, you're going to want to walk that back. You're going to pull that out of context. You're going to ask questions about my legions. This is Roger. I will swear. Don't be Rogers campaign. I'm asking be a journalist. So as a journalist, if you're asking the question about my legions to the constitution, I have never been a member of the Muslim brotherhood. I never will be a member of the Muslim brotherhood. I am interested in serving the United States. I'm interested in swearing an oath to the constitution that every senator has worn oath to. If the question about my faith is the issue, which my Rogers wants it to be, I think it is sad and beneath him. And frankly, beneath the President of the United States, to make that an issue because under our constitution, you're guaranteed the right to pray as you choose to pray. Who did you vote for the last presidential primary? Kamala Harris. Okay. So that's it. Of course, you voted for Kamala Harris. Anyway, I thought that that was kind of a moment and it showcased yet again this rage that this guy has. I mean, he is just one unhappy dude. Really, really unhappy dude. Am I right? Like, he just seems so honestly miserable, totally miserable. Of course, his mother, you know, she said she was just helping the orphans, turns out she was sending money to Osama Bin Laden and the Treasury Department.
I had to shut down that organization she was working for. They didn't get her, but you know, you look at his 9/11 tweet that was recovered. This is from September 2021, and he's all about everything else, right? Like not about what happened on 9/11. There's more to this guy, and I hope that people wake up and understand it before it's too late. Quick reminder, if you haven't gone and gotten my research, 76research.com, we're going to talk more about Brazil and what it means for markets, et cetera, tomorrow. Unfortunately, we're running out of time, and I got to go over and see my friends on Newsmax. So I'll join you there, too. Anyway, three great portfolios there, American resilience, inflation protection, income builder, 76research.com, use code word dollar, you get it for a dollar a month. And I will see you back here live tomorrow. As I said, there's a lot more. There's a lot more going on that we have to get into, both with Ilhan and with this guy, as well as what's happening internationally, Brazil, France. You name it. I'll see you in here. I'll see you tomorrow.
Podcast Summary
Key Points:
Ilhan Omar is facing serious scrutiny over alleged ties to her brother, who is reportedly gay and known by the name "Said Elmi," with evidence suggesting she may have married him and referred to him as her father in social media posts.
Federal investigations have uncovered potential immigration fraud, including her use of a different name (Nurse Said Elmi) and claims of derivative citizenship based on a father linked to controversial activities in Somalia.
Multiple associates in the "Feeding Our Future" scandal, including restaurant owner Saline Ahmed Saeed and campaign worker Guhad Hashi Saeed, share the surname Saeed, raising suspicions of a coordinated network involving fraud and intimidation of Somali communities.
Ilhan Omar has hired high-profile attorneys previously linked to Joe Biden and Barack Obama, indicating a political defense strategy amid growing allegations of marital impropriety, tax fraud, and financial irregularities.
The disappearance and reappearance of $30 million in funds from Minnesota, unexplained wealth shifts, and a history of tax filing inconsistencies with a non-marital husband point to possible financial fraud.
Allegations include her use of campaign funds for personal legal expenses, a known violation of political ethics, and claims of lying about her age and marital status under oath.
A 2024 tweet reveals Omar visiting Somalia’s Puntland region and meeting with local leaders, raising questions about whether she was leveraging foreign intelligence for political gain.
Growing public and political pressure, including a potential citizenship revocation and federal raids, has intensified, with critics arguing the investigation reflects a broader effort to expose systemic fraud in Somali-American communities.
Summary:
Ilhan Omar is at the center of a major federal investigation involving allegations of immigration fraud, financial misconduct, and potential familial ties that contradict public records. Authorities suspect she used a false name, possibly married her brother—alleged to be gay and working on research about queer violence in Kenya—and filed tax returns with a non-marital husband, raising questions about eligibility and honesty. Multiple campaign associates, including men with the surname Saeed, are implicated in a broader "Feeding Our Future" scandal linked to $250 million in fraud.
Evidence includes social media posts where she refers to her brother as her father, and a 2024 claim of Somalia visits tied to foreign policy advocacy. She has hired elite legal counsel tied to both Joe Biden and Barack Obama, suggesting a political defense strategy amid mounting scrutiny. Critics argue that the investigation may extend beyond immigration to target systemic fraud in Somali-American communities, with concerns over misused campaign funds, false statements about her age and family, and unexplained financial flows.
The situation has sparked public outrage, with some predicting her citizenship could be revoked, and federal raids on her home revealing documents related to missing funds. The controversy has also drawn attention to political hypocrisy, as figures like Barack Obama have publicly supported her despite the allegations. The case is seen as a complex intersection of personal, financial, and political misconduct, with potential criminal charges looming.
A major question remains: whether her actions represent personal deception or part of a larger network of fraud targeting immigrant communities.
FAQs
Multiple sources, including social media posts and interviews, suggest that Ilhan Omar referred to a man named 'Nurse Said' as her father and called him 'Abu,' which has led to speculation that he is her brother. Additionally, a campaign worker named Guhad Hashi Saeed, believed to be related, has been accused of intimidating the Somali community, and he has ties to Ilhan’s campaign. This has raised significant questions about the legitimacy of her family connections.
Several individuals connected to Ilhan Omar’s campaign and alleged fraud have the last name Saeed, including Saline Ahmed Saeed, Guhad Hashi Saeed, and Said Erig. This pattern has led investigators to suspect a broader pattern of familial or financial ties, suggesting possible coordination or a network of individuals with shared names involved in the alleged fraud scheme.
Yes, there is evidence that Ilhan Omar filed tax returns while married to her second husband, despite their ceremony being a Christian one, and she had children with her first husband. Critics argue this is inconsistent and suggests possible tax fraud or financial impropriety, especially given allegations of marriage to her brother.
The second husband, identified as Ahmed Elmi, has publicly stated in academic research that he is a gay man of the East African diaspora and has written about queer violence in Kenya. This has raised concerns about whether a religious or cultural marriage to a gay man may be inconsistent with her personal beliefs or the legitimacy of the relationship.
Yes, she has been accused of using a false name, with the feds suggesting she may have been born as Ilhan Nur Saeed Elmi, not Ilhan Abdulahi Omar. This raises concerns about her citizenship and derivative status, especially given her father's alleged history in Somalia and the potential for fraudulent immigration claims.
There is significant speculation about a $30 million influx of funds that appeared in her account and then vanished. This movement has led to questions about the source of the money, with claims suggesting it may have been tied to the 'feeding our future' scheme or illegal activity, and it has prompted federal scrutiny.
