Utter BS!
Omar subpoena blocked
WTF.... again the question - If you have nothing to hide, What/Why are you hiding?
Omar has been able to dodge a Minnesota House Fraud and Oversight subpoena on her role in billions of dollars going to everywhere EXCEPT where the money was supposed to go.
Hate is a strong word and I think I can count on two hands the number of people I feel this way about, but I truly hate this woman...

Not hard to find. Start with crypto. Then their companies securing military contracts with the DOD.

Is that stealing or is that using leverage and name to gain benefit?
Blatant stealing and funneling of taxpayer money versus getting a contract but providing something of value for it are not in the same hemisphere of theft.
You may not like that they got those contracts, but they are at least earning the money by doing something for it - that is not a giveaway nor it is explicitly criminal. This garbage that Omar is wrapped up in is straight criminal theft.
It is still a stretch, but getting a defense contract is in the same area as Hunter's Art career... which I thought was dumb, but in the big picture... meh... Using NIL to gain benefit is as old as time.

While I agree, it isn't criminal (but certainly should not be tolerated, IMO), there is a big difference between the 2. A defense contract comes from the taxpayers, the art was purchased by private companies and/or individuals. I despise any politician (or their families) cashing in on their position. Unfortunately it has been the norm for decades.

Regarding DOD contracts - they would have to deliver a product. Agree if they deliver ZERO.
OTOH, Ilhan is being investigated for outright theft of taxpayer funding. Obviously different but you knew that...

As noted - they are performing a service and/or producing a product for that contract.
There were people dumb enough to pay for Hunters "art work" and it only had to do with the Biden name - just as those contracts going that wat had to do with the Trump name. Both situations included at least getting something for their money.... I don't like either situation any more than any of you do, but (again) the world was built on favors and insiders and I am not going to lose sleep over that.
Omar is part of straight theft which is a far different story. Tommibois... you know that too. If you have never picked one over another because of some sort of relationship or name, goody for you... you might be the only adult ever who has not done that in your life.

In normal times, sure. But we're no longer in normal times. There is just no one holding trump to account for anything. Congress is worthless...and the press is just as bad.
I don't see any place where we'd ever know if they are delivering on anything unless someone blows a whistle...and then it's credibly investigated.

It was already brought up. You chose to ignore it. Don Tweedle Dee and Don Tweedle Dum. Are investing in companies that are winning contracts but it’s okay for you all.

As of April 2026, there is nothing reported in his stock ownership with regard to Defense Contractor stocks - and his Crypto Investments are down significantly from their inception.
Oh and he/his family were really wealthy way before this whole President thing - while people who don't know how to run a garbage disposal are suddenly multi-millionairs in a matter of 2 years.
What else you got?

We've never had "normal times". Besides, this is a clear cut deflection considering insider trading has been SOP for elected politicians for decades. It's no comparison between Trump trading on insider knowledge vs Ilhan Omar being accused of literally defrauding the government thru an embezzling scheme.
Your "what about-ism' on this is absurd.

RE: Utter BS!
Ilhan Omar Knew About $250 Million Somali Fraud Scheme, Convicted Mastermind Claims in Explosive Jailhouse Interview
Quote:Aimee Bock, the convicted mastermind behind the massive $250 million Feeding Our Future COVID meal fraud scandal, has dropped a bombshell from jail, saying she believes Rep. Ilhan Omar knew exactly what was going on and actively helped keep the fraudulent program alive.
Bock, the founder of Feeding Our Future, spoke to the New York Post this week from Sherburne County Jail, where she is awaiting sentencing after her March 2025 conviction on conspiracy, bribery, and wire fraud charges.
Dozens of individuals, mostly from Minnesota’s Somali community, have been convicted in the scheme that fraudulently billed the federal government for tens of millions of meals that were never served to low-income children during the pandemic.
“I struggle to believe that she wouldn’t have known,” Bock said of Omar.
Bock alleged that Omar’s office repeatedly stepped in to help secure and extend USDA waivers that dramatically loosened oversight of the child nutrition programs.
Those waivers eliminated the requirement for site inspections and allowed restaurants and other non-school entities to participate, opening the floodgates to massive fraud.
Omar personally introduced the Maintaining Essential Access to Lunch for Students (MEALS) Act in March 2020, which gave the USDA authority to issue those waivers during the pandemic.
Bock claimed there were multiple gaps when waivers were set to expire, and Omar’s office helped bridge them so the fraudulent billing could continue uninterrupted.
“There had been a couple times early on that there were some gaps – a waiver would be set to expire on maybe the 15th of a month, and then the renewal didn’t kick in until the 1st,” Bock told the paper. “Because of course this was supposed to be a short-term thing . . . we were supposed to be home for two weeks.”
Omar’s name appeared at least six times in emails and text messages entered as evidence during Bock’s federal trial.
“A lot of the sites were working directly with her, being that a lot of the operators were from the same Somali community,” Bock said. “There were a lot of people that had been reaching out to her office and staff — and I presume her personally — to work through some of those gaps with the waivers.”
The congresswoman herself filmed a promotional video in May 2020 at the Safari Restaurant in Minneapolis, a key site in the fraud.
In the video, Omar claimed the restaurant was providing 2,300 meals a day to children and families.
By July 2020, Safari was claiming 5,000 meals daily.
Its co-owner, Salim Said, has since been convicted of defrauding the government of $16 million, the largest single amount in the entire scheme, and is awaiting sentencing.
Bock insisted she repeatedly warned Minnesota state officials about suspicious sites, including one that claimed to serve 21,000 meals a day.
In one 2021 email chain reviewed by The Post, the Minnesota Department of Education responded that it “takes no position if fraud has taken place.”
The Minnesota House Fraud Prevention and State Agency Oversight Committee recently concluded that Omar, along with Gov. Tim Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison, “played critical roles in creating and enabling” the fraud.
The committee has asked the U.S. House Oversight Committee to subpoena Omar’s communications.
Omar’s office has not responded to requests for comment from The Post or other outlets.
Bock faces a potential 100-year sentence but is hoping for time served, arguing she was scapegoated as the only non-Somali and non-Somali-speaking defendant among roughly 80-90 people charged.
“The notion that I’m personally responsible for all of it… is so frustrating. I’m the only white person out of 80 or 90 individuals [charged in the fraud]. I’m the only one that doesn’t speak the language,” Bock told the Post.
Omar’s district contains the highest concentration of Somali immigrants in the United States, and many of the fraud defendants came from that community.
The congresswoman has denied any personal knowledge of the scheme.

More of the same bullchit. It doesn’t matter what, just diarrhea it out.
President Trump logged 3,642 stock trades in the first quarter of 2026, totaling between $220 million and $750 million. Probably want to look closer at Nvidia and Palantir. This dwarfs both historical presidential averages and typical congressional trading. By comparison, sitting presidents historically rely on blind trusts, while the average member of Congress executes only a few dozen trades a year.
And a 37% approval rating to boot so we agree more of the same bullchit ya boot lickers
