Quote:Rep. Ilhan Omar has filed for divorce amid rumors that she was having an extramarital affair.

Omar filed to end her marriage to Ahmed Hirsi on Friday, TMZ reported Monday. A court filing was later uncovered that confirmed the news.

Omar is accused of having an affair with Tim Mynett, a prominent Democratic political consultant, whose estranged wife alleged in a divorce filing that he had been in a months-long relationship with the Minnesota Democrat.

The allegation of the affair brought added scrutiny to Omar’s own marriage. She has faced repeated questions over her marital history after allegations surfaced that she married her brother and committed immigration fraud.

The freshman congresswoman married Hirsi in 2002 during a faith ceremony but did not legally marry until years later. Omar and Hirsi had two children before they separated in 2008. The next year, Omar legally married Ahmed Nur Said Elmi. The two split in 2011, the same year Omar and Hirsi reconciled, but did not legally divorce until 2017. Meanwhile, Omar and Hirsi had a third child in 2012 and legally married in early 2018.

Omar, 37, has denied that she was in a relationship with anyone else. When asked in August whether she had separated from Hirsi or was dating anyone else, Omar said, “No I am not.”

“I have no interest in allowing the conversation about my personal life to continue, and so I have no desire to discuss it,” she said.

Mynett, 38, filed a legal response in September pushing back on the allegations made by his estranged wife, Beth Mynett, in her divorce filing. Beth Mynett, 55, said her political consultant husband told her in April he was in a relationship with Omar.

“Mr. Mynett denies that he told Ms. Mynett he was leaving the marriage for Representative Ilhan Omar or that he was in love with her,” the filing said.

Good thing she's in America. What does the Quran say about a woman who wants a divorce?

I do wonder how all this is playing with her hardline Islamic constituency in the Detroit area.

Isn't she from Minneapolis?

Yeah, you're right. I had her crossed up with Tlaib.

She's from Somaliland in Minneapolis. I'd also like to know how this plays with the Islamic hardliners there. Either way, if we were a half a world away, I'd be willing to bet she'd be getting stoned -- and not the San Francisco version.

Well, I've said that her Muslim constituency would keep her in office forever, (I can't say that about AOCa La Loca who does not have that certain something like a religion). But, perhaps and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they're so disillusioned with her new American customs that they're turned off to her. With this hypocrisy of her I think it would be easy to assume that she need not wear her semi-burka or whatever it's called.

AOC does have a religion. As a matter of fact she is in one of the most radical and fervent religions in existence today. The religion of climate change....

We’d better GAF because this kind of radicalism should never be near the congress of the US. She (and the rest of this group of nuts) needs to get our full attention.
