Benny Johnson update on Ilhan Omar:
She’s gone dark for weeks. No public appearances, no media hits. Federal agents already raided her DC home (seized phone, computers, notebooks, passport). Family members are vanishing or hard to locate.
Multiple subpoenas out, including to her sister.
Her real name and family history don’t match the story she sold America.
Official records and name variations point to the Elmi family (Nur Said Elmi Mohamed / Nur Omar Mohamed), not the “Omar” branding. Her father was a colonel in Siad Barre’s Marxist Somali army — not the simple “educator” refugee narrative.
Ex-officers who served with him say he was a feared regime loyalist who hid his military past when claiming asylum.
Birth records listed 1981 (making her 18, not a minor, when her father supposedly naturalized). Her staff later got Minnesota records changed to 1982. USCIS/DHS searches found no clear naturalization record for the father. DNA is now being tested on the “family unit” after agents collected samples.
The sister’s phone texts helped get the search warrant.
The probe (confirmed by WaPo, WSJ, Reuters) is building a case for immigration fraud, false statements, possible denaturalization and deportation.
The cover-up is unraveling in real time.
