Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., is speaking out over mounting questions from critics about her possible connection to the massive Feeding Our Future fraud scandal in Minnesota and suggested the Trump administration bears responsibility.
"Any claim that I had knowledge of this scheme is flat-out false," the Minnesota congresswoman said in a written statement to Fox News Digital on Wednesday.
"The MEALS Act was signed into law by President Trump and passed with bipartisan support as part of a broader legislative package. Trump’s USDA Secretary set the regulatory framework during the rollout of the program. I have always championed feeding kids and will continue to ensure our children do not go hungry."
Omar went on to say that the "moment this fraud came to light" she "immediately sent a letter to the USDA Secretary demanding answers and accountability."
~Snip~
Omar’s comment comes after she faced mounting pressure to explain her knowledge of and connections to the scandal that cost taxpayers hundreds of millions of dollars.
The Minnesota House Fraud Prevention and State Agency Oversight Committee invited Omar to testify about what she knew but says she never responded, which prompted an effort to subpoena information from her. That effort was blocked by Democrats on the committee.
~Snip~
The report offered a strong critique of Omar, asserting that her MEALS Act, implemented into the Families First Coronavirus Response Act, "took the guardrails off" federal nutrition programs by allowing for-profit restaurants to participate and permitting "grab-and-go" flexibilities that made it nearly impossible to verify if children were actually being fed by the Feeding Our Future program.


Commentary:
How odd? Democrats demand to know who Trump may or may not have slept with over 30 years ago, but they do NOT want to know if Omar Ilhan stole our money?
Trump did not hold an official capacity or office during Omar's state stealing money from taxpayers. That happened under Biden 100%, but weak Democrat people want to blame him but he's innocent when it comes to Minnesota fraud. I'm just glad our government's looking into it, don't care what administration or political party is is looking into fraud, I'm just glad they're doing it.
If Democrats had to intervene to prevent Ilhan from testifying, then there are a lot more of them involved in this crime than just Omar.

Of course why not. The chance to exonerate yourself and you pass it up.

Makes it look more like the Democrats are running interference for her

Sounds like the obvious conclusion as to why Biden didn't pursue the Epstein files as well.

Welp, that settles it, if Omar says she innocent, then case closed. That's good enough for me.

Omar has committed no fraud.

Of course, it's just an accounting error. What type of accountant makes an error of $3,000.00 to $3,000,000.00?

She would be unique among Somalis.

A Somali accountant.

Claimed the always absurd IQ2, with not a hint of a shadow of a ghost of support.

A Somali accountant.

Somali accountant who was a student at the Learing Center.

If Trump told you the sky was green, you'd believe it even after looking at the blue sky.

Don't you know? Far left dems NEVER commit any crimes.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

Just the concept that she imagines to be believed is hilarity.

I have a feeling that the Q-tip is in big trouble.

A mere oopsie accounting error of a thousand fold?

You’re not even near credible in that one. Clearly, you simply and mindlessly spew your nonsense as you make shit up.

Give him a break. It is math and he claims to be black, more likely a wigger so maybe he's just pretending.
