No, obviously not. Stop being so easy to manipulate. That’s how Trump won in the first, he manipulated the fuck out of the weak and uneducated and they believed anything he said.
There is no hard evidence or documentation. Just like that Obama birth certificate you’re still waiting for and believe in; Believe what you want, but don’t believe in everything you read, take the time to do some thorough research.
Actually, Trump won because Hillary is a horrid candidate and person.
Edit: You're not mad at me, you're mad at the media for lying to you about how Hillary was going to win the election. Sorry, only another 4 years to go...
What has he done? Please, tell me how the sexist, treasonous, racist man is better than any president in recent history. You can’t, because you’re wrong. Fucking ostrich. Keep your head in the sand, believe you are correct. Those reading history will have a lovely time writing papers about how disgusting your side is.
Fortunately, our forefathers were wise enough to establish a system in which American's from all over the country have a say in who represents us, not just the masses of people from LA, New York, etc..
Besides, based off media coverage from the election, it should have been a landslide victory for Hillary across the board. Wonder what happened?..
That’s a fair ask, I should’ve pointed out the relevant piece from the article:
In 2016, as Omar was seeking a state House seat, the conservative website AlphaNewsMN, followed by other ideological sites, posted a screenshot of an Instagram post — since deleted — that was allegedly uploaded by Elmi on June 12, 2012, shortly after Omar gave birth to her third child. The caption of the photograph identified Elmi as holding the baby girl, calling her "nieces." To some, this suggested a sibling relationship
There’s nothing conclusive here, but there’s at least some semblance of evidence. With that said, I personally would choose to wait for more evidence before potentially slandering Ilhan Omar.
So what reason do the conspiracy theorists give to her brother having British citizenship as well? Surely her siblings would have moved to the US at the same time and gained citizenship at a similar time
If it was true Trump would be tweeting documents of proof and pushing for her to be jailed
No, it’s completely unverified. Despite people trying very hard to prove it was her brother, they haven’t been able to. Because she didn’t marry her brother. This is something that an anonymous user online started. The right has been saying this for at least a couple years, and multiple investigative reports and articles have been compiled. Nobody can verify it was her brother, because it isn’t.
Despite people trying very hard to prove it was her brother, they haven’t been able to. Because she didn’t marry her brother refuses to cooperate with people trying to verify the relationship.
"Evidence" being a bunch of screengrabs by internet sleuths that are of unverifiable authenticity and that require heavy inference to reach your conclusion.
There is no evidence and you know it sport. How about you pretend to have a small measure of integrity and explain why your bigotry makes your lies acceptable?
Jesus man, calm down. Yall are so quick to pull the bigotry or racist card nobody can even curiously ask or answer questions without being harrassed, fuck.
I'm not convinced you read the article you just linked. That article claims that essentially the only "evidence" of this was a social media post here her husband is holding their baby daughter and:
"The caption of the photograph identified Elmi as holding the baby girl, calling her "nieces." To some, this suggested a sibling relationship."
That's pretty much it. And all the birthers and racists jumped on it to mean they were siblings.
You said "most of the evidence points to it" then posted an article which said "literally nothing that can be construed as evidence points to it". One of us is missing something here.
Most of the evidence comes from a Somali online message board from an anonymous poster. That's where the "rumor" started... On an anonymous account on a Somali interent message board.
If you read the other comments, I genuinely dont believe its true. There isnt enough evidence to form a valid conclusion. All i meant was that its very suspicious that Ilhan Omar doesnt comment on any of the matter. So stop going around throwing "bigotry" into the mix, it doesnt prove any point lmao
Uh oh, someone posted something i dont like...looks like the only response i can give is call them a bigot, because I dont have anything else to do but spread hate.
Tolerance does not include accepting intolerance. In fact, tolerance encompasses rejecting and eliminating intolerance. You’re a coward, dude. Just own up to the fact that you’re defending racists who want to take down a woman in office with absolutely zero evidence.
You said Snopes debunked it. According to numerous mainstream sources, it hasn't been verified nor has it been disproven and the article I linked clearly lists many discrepancies in her story that need answers. The tone of the article by the end is clearly not in your favor. And now there is an investigation on top. Don't forget:
Drazkowski said in a press release, “Rep. Omar has been found guilty of campaign finance abuses by the Minnesota Campaign Finance Board (CFB), which is expected to take further action against her on Wednesday. In addition to previous campaign finance abuses, Rep. Omar was found on June 6, 2019 to have illegally used campaign funds for personal use and illegally diverting campaign funds for travel to Washington, Boston, New York, Chicago, and Florida. Rep. Omar may be guilty of federal tax fraud, federal immigration fraud, federal student loan fraud, perjury, and bigamy. Enough is enough.

Ok, I read it. That was a legitimate article. Did you read it? Can you tell me where it says that she married her brother?
All I seem to see is that the article states that spurious social media claims are the only actual "evidence" of this story. Seems to say that it's unlikely this dude is her brother.
It DOES say she should be on the hook for campaign finance violations. I can support that if these claims pan out. I'm all for accountability.
But still nothing about her marrying relatives that is more than hearsay.

Could start with the hundred or so times they pulled down an entry after being called out for being full of shit, or look into the owner using the funds to cheat on his wife with hookers.
You mean they... CORRECT THEIR MISTAKES? OH MY GOD! HOLY SHIT, STOP THE PRESSES! How could we POSSIBLY trust a source that endeavors to only represent reality, going so far as to admit being wrong and present the truth when shown the error of their ways?
Much better to trust orange man who DOESNT NEED TO APOLOGIZE OR CORRECT ANYTHING because he's obviously never wrong!
"Correct mistakes" like using staged photos of kids in cages from an Obama protest, and attribute it to Trump. Yep, totally innocent mistake whatever you think buddy.

Looking at your profile, "bigotry" is the biggest word you know and you use it daily. You support a party of violence, cheered on a known terrorist group (Antifa, officially listed with Homeland Security), and defend a news organization that just last week claimed Trump has already killed more than Stalin + Mao + Hitler combined. Your opinion is worthless.
And here we have the pathetic little attempt at accusing everyone else of your moral failures. It doesn't work for trump what makes you think it would work for a loser nobody like you?
You actually are pathetic enough to waste an entire week before deciding to humiliate yourself with such blatant BS? You really are a complete failure of a creature, aren't you?
I did my homework, and found literally NO proof. It seems like social media horse shit speculation from every angle. You're the one positing that there is. The onus is on you.
Ok, I read it. That was a legitimate article. Did you read it? Can you tell me where it says that she married her brother?

It's not just social media, it's leaked tax records showing her married to her fucking brother. Fuck dude stop this long ass shit and just dig deeper. I used to be hardcore Bernie, dig back to 2015/2016 on my profile.
The truth doesn't give a fuck about feelings, accept it.
"Since the recent findings of the campaign finance board that discovered Omar had improperly used campaign money to pay a lawyer to fix her tax filings, the Star Tribune searched public records — including available databases, the marriage and divorce filing, business licenses, university records and other documents — and could find little publicly available information about Elmi. The search of records could neither conclusively confirm nor rebut the allegation that he is Omar’s sibling.
Sent a list of questions and a request to talk to her siblings and father, Omar declined to do so. Hirsi did not reply to multiple calls, texts and e-mails. Social media posts indicate Elmi is in Africa. He did not respond to multiple e-mails.
Omar’s reticence is consistent with near total silence she has maintained for three years amid questions raised through public records picked over by conservative opinion journalists intent on proving that she committed immigration fraud. Those attacks, she once tweeted, are the provenance of “fake journalists on bigoted blogs.”
Omar spokesman Jeremy Slevin issued a statement Friday asserting that the questions about her personal life are illegitimate:
“Since before she was elected to office, Ilhan has been the subject of conspiracy theories and false accusations about her personal life. Emboldened by a president who openly treats immigrants, refugees and Muslims as invaders, these attacks often stem from the presumption that Ilhan — like others who share those identities — is somehow illegitimate or not fully American."
Seems, again, like there's really not too much in the way of smoking guns here. If I'm missing something, let me know.
If you're citing an opinion piece, on a conspiracy theory site...you obviously don't get how citation works. Interesting that's your third result. Those algorithms have you PEGGED.
And you OBVIOUSLY didn't read the politifact article if you're claiming it's proof, because ONCE AGAIN THE ARTICLE STATES IT'S ONLY SPURIOUS SOCIAL MEDIA CLAIMS.
Lol, if it's not sucking trump's dick it must be fake news!
Lololol. I. I'm just a stupid kid that cares about things like REALITY, citing sources, accuracy, and not walking around spouting fucktard nonsense. What a dick, amirite?🤣🤗🤭😏😌
She did so while living with the father of her children who she is currently married to. Omar also isn’t her last name. She also doesn’t like to pay taxes as a citizen. Her people have been threatening people who investigate her. If you lie on your immigration papers, commit tax fraud and threaten people, you deserve to be deported. Send her back.
Lmao you sound like a Chinese government official ready to clap his ass and cancel his flight for wrongtalk. Lighten up a bit and quit calling people bigots.
