URGENT: CLICK TO FIGHT BACK AGAINST THE LEFT!
(DC Pundit) – For years, anyone who dared raise questions about Rep. Ilhan Omar’s (D-MN) immigration history was swiftly branded a bigot, a conspiracy theorist, or some knuckle-dragging right-winger with nothing better to do.
Well, it turns out the federal government has something better to do, and it involves a Freedom of Information Act request, a federal law-enforcement exemption, and Immigration and Customs Enforcement refusing to hand over records because doing so could interfere with active “enforcement proceedings.”
President Trump shared the bombshell report on his Truth Social account Sunday evening.

The long-standing allegations center on claims that Omar entered into a fraudulent marriage with Ahmed Nur Said Elmi, who some allege is her biological brother, in order to help him secure legal status in the United States. Omar has repeatedly denied the accusation, calling it a “bigoted lie,” and insisting she committed no crime.
But here’s the thing, ICE isn’t exactly taking her word for it.
When Just the News filed a FOIA request in January seeking documents related to any ICE investigation into the alleged fraud, the agency invoked 5 U.S.C. § 552(b)(7)(A), the exemption that protects law-enforcement records when disclosure could compromise an active investigation or proceeding. “Disclosure of any responsive records at this time could reasonably be expected to interfere with enforcement proceedings,” ICE wrote.
That’s the clearest official signal yet that federal scrutiny of Omar is very much alive.
Trump’s Border Czar Tom Homan had already confirmed in December that he’d ordered Omar’s immigration records pulled for review. “We’re pulling the records, we’re pulling the files, and we’re looking at it,” Homan said, adding that an experienced Homeland Security fraud investigator had previously reviewed the file and raised serious concerns.
Then in March, Vice President JD Vance poured fuel on the fire when he revealed the White House fraud task force was examining the allegations. “We actually think that Ilhan Omar definitely committed immigration fraud against the United States of America,” Vance said flatly. Two months later, Vance confirmed the Justice Department had also joined the review, though he was careful to add: “If we think that there’s a crime, we’re going to prosecute that crime.”
Omar, who was born in Somalia, came to the U.S. in 1995 and became a citizen in 2000. She legally married Elmi in 2009 and divorced him in 2017. No DNA evidence or court ruling has conclusively established the alleged biological relationship.
What has been established, however, is this: the Trump administration isn’t buying the “right-wing conspiracy theory” defense, and neither, apparently, is ICE.
