Ilhan Omar caught grifting off the backs of needy Minnesotan's food shelf

2020-05-09

[Twitchy] Rep. Ilhan Omar got caught grifting, deleted her tweet claiming she was raising money for a Minnesota food bank, but the link she provided was for ActBlue, a website libs use for campaign donations:

As David Steinberg, whose reporting on Rep. Omar and her campaign finance/brother-husband has been top notch, note she deleted it after getting called out by one of the directors of the program who tweeted back at her, "I am the Executive Director of GMCC; Minnesota FoodShare is our program. Ilhan Omar had nothing to do with this project. I do not know where this money is going to":

Yet another @IlhanMN campaign finance problem:@IlhanMN posted this tweet on Tuesday, then deleted it at some point after it received this reply. pic.twitter.com/S9kS6JqiWZ

Over to you, Rep. Omar:

Did you figure out where the money donated to her campaign was going? Did it get to Minnesota Food Share?

How much was raised and did the food bank get the money?
"Somebody collected something"!
Why bother, no one will ever investigate her thefts.

#15 Keith Ellison, Omar, Somali communities Muslim call to prayer blaring out five times a day, when will the morons in Minnesota vote for sharia courts and special exemptions for Muslims in family law? This is the face of creeping colonization.

#14 I think Gilead might have a drug in Phase 1 for that.

#13 We need some mechanism in this country to let people who need to wear a hair shirt over their "white guilt" to do it without inflicting their mania on the rest of us.

#12 Re #10: With Keith Ellison as State AG, you're surprised?

#6 I guarantee you this will not make our local news. No way no how. So my alternative title, "Show us on the doll where Omar hurt you".

Now that would make a great campaign poster!

Sorry, missed the posted by thingy.

#2 Surely they will look into it and transfer the money to the food bank.
