Ilhan Omar told friends years ago that the man who went on to become her second husband was in fact her brother, DailyMail.com can confirm
Abdihakim Osman is the first person to go on record to speak of how Omar said she wanted to get her brother papers so he could stay in the United States
It has long been rumored that Omar and Ahmed Elmi are siblings, but because of a lack of paperwork in war-torn Somalia, proof has never been uncovered
Osman said: 'She said she needed to get papers for her brother to go to school. We all thought she was just getting papers to allow him to stay in this country'
Omar was married to her second husband Elmi in 2009 by a Christian minister - although she is Muslim
She was first married to Ahmed Hirsi in 2002 in a Muslim ceremony, before they split in 2008 - but she later had another child with Hirsi while legally wed to Elmi
Osman said: 'When [Hirsi] and Ilhan got married, a lot of people were invited. It was a big Islamic wedding uniting two large clans in the community'
He added: 'When she married Elmi, no one even knew about it... No one knew there had been a wedding until the media turned up the certificate years later'
'Squad' congresswoman Ilhan Omar told friends years ago that the man who went on to become her second husband was in fact her brother, DailyMail.com can confirm.
And now for the first time one of those friends has come forward to reveal exactly how Omar and Ahmed Elmi scandalized the Somali community in Minneapolis.
Abdihakim Osman is the first person to go on record to speak of how Omar said she wanted to get her brother papers so he could stay in the United States, at a time when she was married to her first husband Ahmed Hirsi.
But hardly anyone realized that meant marrying him.
'No one knew there had been a wedding until the media turned up the marriage certificate years later,' Osman, 40, exclusively told DailyMail.com.
Osman's revelations are sure to renew calls for an investigation into the Minnesota freshman representative who has repeatedly refused to answer questions on her marriage to Elmi.
She originally said the idea that the spouses were also siblings were 'baseless, absurd rumors', accusing journalists of Islamophobia, but has since stayed quiet.

Maybe it doesn't count in the eyes of Allan if she married her brother in a Christian ceremony.

The poor kid is going to be awfully confused. "What do you mean my father is also my uncle?"
BREAKING: Durham has interviewed several of the FBI investigators who worked on Mueller's team during his 2017-2018 inquiry, further suggesting Durham's probe may be expanding into the activities of the Special Counsel's office
According to investigative reporter Paul Sperry. Robert Mueller was appointed as special counsel in May of 2017 and had 40 FBI agents, intel analysts, and others working for him to investigate the ’Trump-Russia collusion.’ Trump's personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani referred to the FBI agents working for Mueller as "stormtroopers."

[BREITBART] Representative The Ageless and Downright Brilliant Comrade Maxine Impeach 45! Waters ...U.S. Representative for California's 43rd congressional district, serving since 1991, a total of 28.22100 years. A member of the Democratic Party, she is the most senior of the twelve black women currently serving in the United States Congress, and a member and former chair of the Congressional Black Caucus. Before becoming a member of Congress she served in the California Assembly, to which she was first elected back when Disco was in flower, in 1976, which would make it 43.21895 years. She has been a politician for virtually all her adult life. If she was a little brighter she'd be a Communist... (D-CA) said Tuesday on MSNBC that not enough Americans are resisting and speaking out against President Donald Trump ...dictatorial for repealing some (but not all) of the diktats of his predecessor, misogynistic because he likes pretty girls, homophobic because he doesn't think gender bending should be mandatory, truly a man for all seasons...... Waters said, "The American people should be focused on Barr. We should be joining with all of those federal prosecuting attorneys that have decided he should step down, that he should resign. We should be supporting them and backing them up. I’m anxious to see what the federal judges who have decided they can’t wait until the yearly association meeting, that they should pay attention to what is going on now and review what has happened. I’m anxious to see what they’re going to come out with."
She continued, "But the American public should get behind this if they care anything about our democracy. You know, for all of those people who say that they, you know, honor the flag and that they are in support of our democracy being strengthened, for all of those people who say that‐where are you? Can’t they see what is happening? We’re in a constitutional crisis in this country, with a president who is running amok. He is out of control. We have got to make sure that he’s not reelected. We have to speak up, we have to resist. I don’t hear enough voices."
She added, "It is not only the sycophants around him, it’s the average American who gets up every day, who is taking care of their families, who is thinking somebody else will see to it that this president is not re-elected. But, no, it has to be all of us out there working and working very hard. We have a constitutional crisis and we’ve got to deal with it. This is what democracy is all about, when you see a president out of control, when you see those who have been elected to office, who are not acting responsibly and they’re endangering our democracy, you have to speak out against them. You have to work against them. You have got to make sure that they’re not reelected ever again."

I would guess the average American who reads up on things would be horrified by the idea of 10 years in prison for committing no crime. If the FBI visits anyone, they can, sooner or later, nail you with a process crime if that is their desire. "Oh, your favorite color is red? We have an email showing you told your ex-wife it was blue ...". Two years in jail.
[LATIMES] Two weeks before Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party,’s primary election, Donald Trump ...the Nailer of NAFTA... landed in the blue state Tuesday for the fourth time in his presidency to meet with organizers of the 2028 Olympic Games before attending a fundraising dinner in Beverly Hills.
He used the occasion to again slam the city’s politicianship for failing to slow the homelessness epidemic.
During a briefing on preparations for the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles, the president said that if L.A. doesn’t "clean it up fast," he will intervene.
"If they can’t do it themselves, we’re going to do it," Trump said. "The federal government is going to take it over, we’re going to do it."

Gee, I wonder how such a shitty city as LA could win the Olympic Game$$$$ ...

I remember the 1984 LA Olympics went pretty good.
Of course that was 36 years ago and a lot has changed since then.
The 1992 LA riots started turning things the wrong direction.
[MAIL] President Trump has ousted the Pentagon's top policy official who had certified last year that Ukraine had made enough anti-corruption progress to justify the Trump administration's release of congressionally authorized aid to Kyiv in its conflict against Russian-backed separatists.
John Rood resigned Wednesday, saying he was leaving at Trump's request.
The Trump administration's delay in releasing the aid to Ukraine was central to the president's impeachment by the House on charges of abuse of power and obstruction of Congress.
[FOX] San Francisco's newly minted sheriff said his officers won't help federal authorities deport undocumented immigrants despite increasing pressure from the Trump administration to crack down on people living illegally in U.S. sanctuary cities.
Paul Miyamoto, California's first Asian American sheriff, said going after undocumented immigrants seeking solace is not a priority.
"Our department is not involved in immigration enforcement," he told KTVU2. "We feel that it is a federal matter, and our realm of interest is public safety, and you can't really have a safe community if the community members are afraid to come to us to report crimes."
He added that he's not aware of the city ever turning someone in custody over to federal authorities and that he's not starting now.

Waiting for the Big One by flashing your middle index finger may not be the best route to take. I'm sure no one will hold up recovery monies with procedural delays in Congress. I'm sure Sacramento can cover you rather than Washington. What's another couple hundred billion in debt to them anyway.
