Sure is a lot of smoke for there not to be a fire.

Not sure why Jacoby is digging in without knowing the facts.

That's an assumption

Did you know your birthday by the time you were 17?

If your dob was suddenly backdated by a year at age 18, shouldn’t a person capable of holding public office be aware of that change?

Why not just let the investigation play out?

What is the specific allegation here? It hasn't been fleshed out

IIRC, she amended her tax returns recently from being worth up to 30 Million to less than 100K.

You probably agree that it was an accounting error. Keep on keeping on.

B. If she didn't know at the time of the fraud, it presents issues for the fraud itself, and once she was a citizen her status hurts a criminal allegation of immigration fraud (as she's a citizen at that point and no longer subject to the laws of naturalization).

Counsel, is it your argument that your client does not know their own birthday?

Sir, knowing your birthday is white privilege.

• Reported Range: U.S. Representative Ilhan Omar reported a household net worth between $6 million and $30 million at the end of 2024, according to her official congressional financial disclosures.

The wealth primarily comes from her husband, Tim Mynett, and his ownership stakes in a California-based winery and a venture capital firm.

White privilege abuser and an Alabama sibling fricker

only a “few weeks” before the midterms, in spite of the DOJ policy.

Is this an actual policy or a stated understanding?

DOJ must’ve conveniently forgotten it at Mar-a-lago

Isn't he getting sued for this "winery" that doesn't make any wine?

Maybe it's all about this?

House Oversight Investigation: In February 2026, the U.S. House Committee on Oversight and Accountability opened an investigation into Mynett's business dealings. The committee raised questions about eStCru LLC and Rose Lake Capital LLC after financial disclosure forms showed a steep jump in the entities' reported valuation (from up to $51,000 in 2023 to as much as $30 million in 2024), seeking records regarding their funding and investors.

It's all tied together. Omar barked and now the government is bitting

Maybe she shouldn't have married her brother.

Guess they should have read Alabama law, not just watched TV.
