Ilhan Omar has paid her husband’s firm $600,000 in three weeks, $1.6 million overall

AUG 4, 2020 9:00 AM BY ROBERT SPENCER

Flagrant corruption, out in the open for anyone to see. Ilhan Omar is rubbing our noses in America’s current two-tier justice system. If one of the hoi polloi did something like this, he or she would face consequences. But Ilhan Omar knows she is golden. She has three victim tickets: she is a woman, she is black, and she is a Muslim. Accordingly in today’s sick victim-idolizing society, she is royalty. The standards that apply to other people don’t apply to her, and anyone who thinks they do will immediately be smeared as “racist” and “Islamophobic.”



“Ilhan Omar’s Mass Corruption, Has Paid Her Husband’s Firm $600,000 in 3 Weeks, $1.6 Million Overall During Cycle,” by C. Douglas Golden, Western Journal, August 1, 2020 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

Ladies, get you a man who loves you as much as Rep. Ilhan Omar loves spending money on her man’s firm.

The spigot at the Minnesota Democrat campaign’s headquarters continues to flow to the E Street Group, a Washington, D.C.-based consulting firm that raked in a remarkable 77 percent of the Omar campaign’s disbursements for the first three weeks of July.

Federal Election Commission records released Thursday show that the E Street Group received $606,000 from Omar’s campaign during that period.

The E Street Group is run by Tim Mynett, Omar’s third husband.

This curious financial relationship began in August 2018, back when Omar and Mynett were both married to other people. They weren’t open polyamorists or anything, so one assumes the relationship at that point was, at least officially, a professional one.

Money changed hands, young wonk love began to bud, Omar’s husband said he found the congresswoman in a compromising position with Mynett while they were in their PJs, Mynett’s ex-wife Beth said in divorce documents that her former husband’s “travel and long work hours now appear to be more related to his affair with Rep. Omar than with his actual work commitments,” yadda yadda yadda, now Omar and Mynett are married.

You’d think that maybe Rep. Omar — a member of “the squad,” that quartet of young leftist firebrands ostensibly dedicated to tearing down the kind of moneyed Washington scotch-quaffing establishment that enriches itself by operating on the fringes of the rulebook — might have flipped through the Justice Democrats Rolodex and found any other left-leaning consultancy group to handle the kind of amorphous things Omar’s campaign is paying the E Street Group to do.

After all, there are plenty of firms in Washington that are set up to handle “digital consulting,” “fundraising consulting” and “mail production and postage” — three things the Omar campaign paid the E Street Group to do in July — that aren’t run by people who enjoy intimate relations with the candidate.

In fact, it’s an entire city where the economy is built on people who can’t get elected or get jobs in the halls of power who provide those services to those who can. If the flow of money to this hive of well-remunerated hackery were to somehow magically disappear, the District of Columbia would resemble nothing so much as “Harlan County, USA” with a lot of monuments and cherry blossoms.

Nah, though. Omar’s spent a total of $1.6 million with Mynett’s firm this election cycle. Your campaign donations to Omar, in other words, are going directly into her husband’s firm….
