House, feds launch probe into Ilhan Omar finances after reported jump from $0 to $30M, raising concerns
Lawmakers are questioning how Rep. Ilhan Omar’s household wealth rose so quickly.
At the center of the inquiry is Omar’s husband, Tim Mynett, whose political consulting firm has done business with Democratic-aligned organizations. Oversight Chair James Comer has publicly questioned whether that income and the speed at which it was accumulated align with federal ethics and disclosure rules.
Comer told The Post that committee attorneys are even weighing the unusual step of subpoenaing Mynett.
“There are a lot of questions as to how her husband accumulated so much wealth over the past two years,” Comer said. “It’s not possible. It’s not. I’m a money guy. It’s not possible.”
I have good idea how she got that money. It was welfare fraud kickbacks laundered through her husbands businesses.
