Do some more research.


I did. This one is behind a paywall:



Here's one from 2019 repeating Trump's questions about her status and the brother marriage thing.

Politifact: Questions About Omar

Here are President Trump’s remarks from July of 2019:

“There's a lot of talk about the fact that she was married to her brother. I know nothing about it. I hear she was married to her brother. You're asking me a question about it. I don't know, but I'm sure that somebody would be looking at that.”

RealClearPolitics: Trump has questions about Omar

Here's CNN from July of 2019 discussing the issue of Trump and supporters wanting to send Omar "back."

quote:

JIM ACOSTA, CNN CHIEF WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT: That's right, Wolf.

And President Trump is now gaslighting himself out of this mess that he started with his racist tweets. Today, the president claimed he tried to put a stop to the "Send her back" chants coming from his crowd in North Carolina last night. But that's not true.

Unlike the president, the video does not lie.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

ACOSTA (voice-over): President Trump is finding out there's no going back after "Send her back."

CROWD: Send her back! Send her back!

ACOSTA: The president tried to fudge his way around accusations that he didn't do enough to stop chants of "Send her back" aimed at Congresswoman Ilhan Omar at his rally in North Carolina.

TRUMP: I felt a little bit badly about it, but I will say this. I did and I started speaking very quickly.

ACOSTA: But that's not true. Watch the video. The president paused and allowed the chants to continue for a full 13 seconds as he attacked Omar.

TRUMP: And, obviously and importantly, Omar has a history of launching vicious anti-Semitic screeds.

CROWD: Send her back! Send her back! Send her back! Send her back! Send her back! Send her back! Send her back! Send her back! Send her back!

TRUMP: And she talked about the evil Israel and its all about the Benjamins. Not a good thing to say.

ACOSTA: Pressed on the chant, the president pointed the finger at his own crowd.

TRUMP: I disagree with it, but, again, I didn't say -- I didn't say that. They did.

ACOSTA: But hold on. The crowd was essentially echoing the president's racist tweet from earlier in the week, when he told four Democratic women of color to go back to where they came from.

Asked a second time about the chants, the president praised his audience, then blasted the congresswomen once again.

TRUMP: These are people that love our country. I want them to keep loving our country. And I think the congresswomen, by the way, should be more positive than they are. The congresswomen have a lot of problems.

ACOSTA: But the president's targets aren't holdings back either, as Omar accused Mr. Trump of fascism.

REP. ILHAN OMAR (D-MN): I believe he is fascist. This is not about me. This is about us fighting for what this country truly should be and what it deserves to be.

ACOSTA: While Democrat Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said the president is playing with fire.

REP. ALEXANDRIA OCASIO-CORTEZ (D-NY): His rhetoric is endangering lots of people. This is not just about threats to individual members of Congress, but it is about creating a volatile environment in this country.

ACOSTA: Top Republicans are backing the president.

REP. KEVIN MCCARTHY (R-CA): I did talk to somebody who was there. He said it was a small group off to the side. What the president did, the president did not join in. The president moved on.

ACOSTA: Senator Lindsey Graham said the president is just fighting back against his critics.

SEN. LINDSEY GRAHAM (R-SC): If you're a Somali refugee wearing a MAGA hat, he doesn't want to send you back.

ACOSTA: Graham was asked why Mr. Trump didn't control his crowd the same way the late Senator John McCain corrected one of his supporters who attacked Barack Obama in 2008.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: I can't trust Obama. I have read about him and he's not -- he's not -- he's an Arab. He is not?

SEN. JOHN MCCAIN (R), ARIZONA: No, ma'am.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: No?

MCCAIN: No, ma'am. He's a decent family man, citizen that I just happen to have disagreements with on fundamental issues. And that's what this campaign is all about.

GRAHAM: I don't remember anybody treating President John McCain the way they're treating Trump. I don't remember John McCain having to go through this crap every day all the time.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

[18:10:00]

ACOSTA: And the White House is encouraging its allies to stay focused in their attacks on the four Democratic congresswomen who are being targeted by the president.

But we're told some of the administration's surrogates are very concerned about the chants from last night's rally. At one Trump adviser put it to me earlier today, Wolf, the chants were -- quote -- "gross."


CNN transcripts

You and BoarEd stating that this started under Biden gets more amusing the more you look into it:)

Hey phony, you're talking about two different investigations. This should be obvious to a trained attorney like yourself. Again, even Trump hating CNN acknowledges this is a continuation of a Biden era investigation. deal with it.

You don't think they scrutinized EVERYTHING about Omar in 2019?

This is an investigation that began under Biden and was opened to look at her financial disclosures, Matt. I'm sorry you don't like this and it won't allow you Democrats to claim political persecution, but those are the facts. Now stop pretending to be something you're not.

You saying this over and over doesn't make any of it true. I'm just talking about the scrutiny being given an application from 2000. Again, the allegation is that her father lied about her age.

When did THAT allegation arise? Why wouldn't that be easy to resolve within a day with access to all of DHS's records?

I actually looked up CNN's reporting (you're welcome). Here's what it said about the "Biden investigation:"

quote:

No charges were brought by the Biden-era investigators and the case around Omar didn’t progress nearly as far as the current Trump-era investigators have taken it, several people familiar with the investigation said.

The case was reopened last year and is now being led by prosecutors in the deputy attorney general’s office and in the US attorney’s office in Minneapolis, the sources said. The US Attorney’s Office in Washington, DC, has also been involved


Sprawling Investigation into Omar

Again, it sounds like they must have the goods on Omar. I hope so. That doesn't make me a Democrat for pointing out that the IMMIGRATION stuff looks petty and targeted.

More egregious issues involving the immigration records of Melania and Musk have not been investigated...at all...much less been spewed by numerous officials.

The FINANCIAL stuff was triggered by Omar’s ridiculous financial disclosure and apparent connections to Minnesota fraud. That's totally legit, and NOT political targeting.

That imbecile needs to be added to the list, and handed a list of all the people the Biden admin went after with the arrest warrant.

Democrats are scum of the earth

I’ll answer your question, do you really not think that the First Lady (twice) and the richest man on earth who is constantly in the news have not been scrutinized by the left a hell of a lot more than that ungrateful, corrupt POS from Somalia?


Of course they have...just not by the Trump Administration which NOW claims it's interested in visa applications from long ago.

The evidence of Melania working while on her tourist visa AND not being qualified for an "Einstein" Green Card is overwhelming.

That Musk violated the terms of his student visa is undisputed.

It literally wasn't until 3 minutes ago when I actually read your proof that "this started under Biden," that I understood the depths of your dishonesty and/or stupidity. NOTE: there's no mention of the age issue to which Obama was referring.

You can only investigate one thing

You can't find anything else in your investigation

That's your big win?

The thread is about Obama lying about the immigration investigation involving Omar’s age being politically targeted. BoarEd claims that can't be true because "this" investigation started under Biden.

There's no evidence that the investigation into her age started under Biden. All other investigations are irrelevant to what Obama actually said.

The most interesting tidbit is the FOIA request on Omar's father. A whistleblower requested a FOIA for Omar's dad naturalization. .

Allegedly there was no Immigration record of him being naturalized. This directly conflicts with Omar's public statements about her father immigration status.

This raises questions on Omar's actual immigration status if her father was never granted citizenship. Non citizens cannot qualify for Congress.

There's more to this story than being reported

Trump has wanted her gone since 2019. Don't you think if it were that simple that she would be gone already? The Feds have all the files.

Congresswoman Omar went on to graduate from college, work as a community organizer,

Can’t imagine the thought process of going to a country for asylum and becoming a “community organizer”.

AJ Kern initiated the FOIA request. He was her opponent in 2022 MN Congressional race. There are numerous articles including the NY Post on October 13th for references.

It is not that simple for a criminal investigator.
Pulling a record from the immigration archives is one step in a long process. There lots of elements that must be proven in any case. However, it probably was an important factor for the judge to issue warrants to Omar and her siblings.

Her father filed and signed the immigration application since she was a minor. Was she aware of her citizenship status when she ran for Congress.

Maybe she can simply release her naturalization documents and put this part to rest

The balls on this POS.

He is behind every single thing that has negatively affected our country since 2008.

He is behind everything and every obstacle the media and the Democrats have thrown at both Trump administrations.

He is behind the illegal invasion of 30 million people during the Biden years.

He and Eric Holder destroyed the rule of law in our country.

He is a lying treasonous traitor to our country and American citizens.

He should be in JAIL.

The thread is about Obama lying about the immigration investigation being political involving Omar.

Omar is of importance to the president? Not really, but it is important on national security they always cry about.
