Trump administration Border Czar Tom Homan said in an interview Monday night on Newsmax that he had asked for the immigration records of Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) to be pulled for his review over allegations the Somali refugee married her brother to help him gain residency in the United States.
President Donald Trump brought up the allegation against Omar while speaking to reporters in the Oval Office last week.
Omar appeared on CBS’ Face the Nation on Sunday but was not asked about the allegation of immigration fraud.
Homan spoke to Newsmax host Rob Schmitt, who asked about Trump’s comments and if there was an investigation into Omar:
Schmitt: (President Trump) Calls that a fraud. It’s a story that that has never been successfully refuted, even though it’s now a five year old story. That’s clearly a deportable offense. Is there an investigation into that?
Homan: You know, I just got advised by a fraud investigator the other day on that. I asked the question, who reviewed the file and says, you know, there was immigration fraud involved. The statute of limitation became an issue in the last four years when this was first brought up, who was president, who ran DOJ?
So pulling the records, now pulling the files and we’re looking at it. But this fraud investigator who I know personally, one of the best fraud investigators in HSI, Homeland Security Investigations, said there’s no doubt he reviewed the file. So I’m running that down this week, as a matter of fact. And we’ll see.”
We can only hope there’s enough evidence to jail her and her brother/husband!
She deserves prison, a deportation is not sturn enough for someone holding political office and being paid by U.S. citizens.

And ill believe it when I see something done about it first
