Ilhan Omar under investigation: What’s the truth about her immigration journey?
On December 10, border czar Tom Homan announced that investigators were working to determine if Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) had committed immigration fraud by lying on her marriage certificate — which has been a source of rumors for years now.
“She’s on her third marriage now. She really loves getting married here in America, which, like, as a Muslim, I’m pretty sure is frowned upon. The marrying the brother thing, actually I don’t think that’s frowned upon in the Muslim world,” BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales comments on “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered.”
When Omar was later confronted by journalist Nicholas Ballasy, who asked her for any response to the allegations, she said, “I have no response because I don’t know what they’ll be investigating.”
When pressed further, Omar responded that the reason they’re investigating her for immigration fraud is because “they’re sick.”
“She’s like, ‘I don’t even know what they would be investigating.’ Uh, that you married your brother. I think that’s pretty obvious. I think it’s weird that you say, ‘I don’t know what they’d be investigating.’ I think a response from someone who, like, hadn’t just married their freaking brother would be like, ‘Uh, yeah. I mean, this guy was very clearly not my brother. They’re welcome to investigate that,’” Gonzales says.
“That seems to be what a normal person would say in response to, ‘Hey, did you marry your brother?’” she adds.
However, the fraud might go even deeper than just her marriage.
“Omar was caught lying about her birth year, and Minnesota legislative records corroborate that,” Gonzales explains, pulling up Omar’s page in the Minnesota Legislative Reference Library.
“It listed her birth date. It says October 4, 1981, but an updated version of the page lists her birth year as 1982,” she says.
“Could be nothing. But what this also could mean is that it would call into question the legitimacy of her citizenship actually,” she continues, explaining that Omar once told Mehdi Hasan on his podcast “Deconstructed” that she became a citizen before she turned 18, through the process of her father becoming a citizen.
And according to Gonzales, there are three pathways to citizenship Omar could have taken.
“Number one is acquisition. Well, that wouldn’t apply to Ilhan Omar because neither of her parents were U.S. citizens when she was born in Somalia. All right, so cross that one off the list. Number two is the derivation of citizenship, which requires foreign-born children to turn 18 on or after February 27, 2001,” Gonzales explains.
“Well, you can check that one off the list also because it would not apply to Ilhan because she would have been older than 18, even if we used her possibly fake birth year of 1982. So that one also would not apply,” she says.
“Number three, application for citizenship under section 322 of the Immigration and Naturalization Act. Now, pay attention. This is the — ding, ding, ding — this is the one that matters because Ilhan Omar’s family first arrived in the United States in 1995, which means 2000 would be the first year her father would be eligible for citizenship,” she continues.
“So, if Omar was born in 1981, she would have been 18 years old up until October 2000 and 19 years old after October 2000. Meaning she — if that’s her birthday — was an adult, and not eligible for this path of citizenship. If that was her birthday, she was not eligible for the only path of citizenship she would have been eligible for at that time,” she says.
Gonzales points out that by changing her birth year to 1982, she would “then on paper be 17 years old before October 2000.”
“And then it all makes sense,” she says.

California city mayor pro tem calls for end of Pride Month observation, and outrage ensues
LGBTQ activists are outraged after the mayor pro tem of a California desert city called for the local government to stop observing Pride Month.
Palm Desert Mayor Pro Tem Joe Pradetto suggested during a Dec. 16 council meeting that the city should reconsider hanging banners in support of Pride Month. Pradetto said the city should stay out of the private lives of its residents.
‘We must agree to a non-aggression pact. We can’t use the power of the state to punish those who disagree with us.’
He also said that some of the residents expressed concern that the banners showed preference by the city in favor of some residents against others.
The Palm Springs Pride group released a statement condemning the proposal.
“Discrimination is division. The city must unequivocally reject this harmful proposal and reinforce its commitment to being a truly open, diverse, and welcoming home for everyone,” they wrote in a statement.
On Tuesday, the city council voted against the proposal and will keep hanging banners.
In a comment emailed to Blaze News, Pradetto clarified that he had nothing against the LGBTQ community.
“America is divided, and it breaks my heart. Our current strategy of progressive identity politics is failing, and doubling down will only make it worse,” he wrote in part.
“When politics becomes about identity rather than policy, compromise becomes impossible,” Pradetto added. “The temperature rises. I can’t fix that throughout the nation, but I can start in my own city. That is why I proposed policy changes to focus on our similarities, rather than our differences, and remove group-specific banners from City Hall.”
RELATED: LGBTQ activists complain companies are caving to Pride Month backlash: ‘Scared to death’
He went on to say that the policies threatened the values of a pluralistic society.
“In a pluralistic society, you are safe to express who you are and what you believe in the public square. But we must agree to a non-aggression pact. We can’t use the power of the state to punish those who disagree with us,” Pradetto wrote.
“Although my proposal failed, I hope it encourages other officials to look at their policies because our current trajectory will divide us and render state power not as a governing structure but a blunt tool against those who disagree with you,” he concluded.

Exclusive: GOP Senate candidate Wesley Hunt pushes bill barring education benefits for illegal aliens
Republican Rep. Wesley Hunt of Texas is moving legislation on Capitol Hill to ensure taxpayers are actually prioritized over illegal aliens.
Hunt, who is running for U.S. Senate in Texas, introduced the American Dream Protection Act on Thursday to disincentivize states and educational institutions from providing educational benefits to illegal aliens. Hunt’s legislation would require federal financial assistance to be withheld if states are found to provide taxpayer-funded education to illegal aliens.
‘Too many American resources have been used to benefit illegals.’
“For years, the left and a select few Republican senators have pushed for mass amnesty and benefits for illegal aliens,” Hunt told Blaze News. “In 2003, the Dream Act, which was voted favorably out of the Senate Judiciary Committee, created an incentive to provide illegals with in-state tuition rates intended only for legal residents.”
“The American Dream Protection Act of 2025 will eliminate federal and state funding to universities that continue to support illegals.”

Educational institutions across the country offer in-state tuition and other higher education benefits to illegal aliens, leaving American taxpayers to foot the bill. To counteract these inequities, Hunt’s bill withholds federal funds for schools that charge illegal immigrants lower tuition as well as states that provide them financial aid.
“Too many American resources have been used to benefit illegals while American citizens suffer,” Hunt told Blaze News.

Hunt is currently running in the Texas Senate primary against incumbent Sen. John Cornyn and Attorney General Ken Paxton. The Republican primary winner will face off with one of two Democratic candidates, Rep. Jasmine Crockett or state Rep. James Talarico.

Illegal alien bus driver who can’t speak English allegedly kills American while ‘distracted by a video on his phone’
An American citizen was killed in a multi-vehicle pileup in Tennessee last week after an illegal alien bus driver allegedly rear-ended a semi-truck while driving along I-40.
This marks the latest fatal crash tied to an illegal alien who obtained a commercial driver’s license in the United States despite unlawful status.
‘Far too many innocent Americans have been killed by illegal aliens driving semi-trucks and big rigs.’
Yisong Huang, a 54-year-old Chinese national, illegally entered the U.S. in 2023. While he admitted to Border Patrol agents that he had unlawfully entered the country, the Biden administration released him and provided him with work authorization documents and a Social Security card, the Department of Homeland Security reported.
Huang used his work documents to obtain a Class B CDL in New York, which allowed him to operate a bus.
On December 9, Huang allegedly caused a multi-vehicle crash after he rear-ended a tractor-trailer. Investigators found that Huang was “distracted by a video on his phone.”
The incident resulted in the death of American citizen Kerry Smith and injuries to two other individuals. There were no passengers on Huang’s bus at the time of the crash.

Huang failed his English proficiency test administered after the fatal collision.
“Far too many innocent Americans have been killed by illegal aliens driving semi-trucks and big rigs. And yet sanctuary states around the country have been issuing illegal aliens commercial driver’s licenses. The Trump administration is ending the chaos,” DHS Secretary Kristi Noem said. “The brave men and women of ICE are working nonstop to get criminal illegal aliens out of our communities and off our roads.”

Department of Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said, “It’s not just that Joe Biden let millions of migrants flood into our country illegally. His administration doled out the documentation these unqualified foreigner drivers needed to obtain trucking licenses and operate 40-ton missiles on the highway. The fact that this individual failed a basic English test also calls into question how he even got the license in the first place. Working with Secretary Noem, we will continue to fight to keep you and your family safe on America’s roadways.”

Trump suggests Dan Bongino will leave the FBI: ‘He wants to go back to his show’
President Donald Trump suggested that FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino might be stepping down from the bureau and returning to host his political show.
The president was responding to questions from reporters at Joint Base Andrews in Prince George’s County, Maryland, on Wednesday when he made the comments.
‘I gave up everything for this. … I stare at these four walls all day in DC by myself.’
Bongino had reportedly made plans to leave the bureau next year, according to eight sources who spoke to MS NOW.
“Dan did a great job,” said Trump. “I think he wants to go back to his show.”
Bongino had worked as a police officer and a Secret Service agent before he hosted a conservative show.
He was dismissive when approached by MS NOW for comment. “Print whatever you’d like,” he replied. “No one believes you anyway. Thanks.”
Bongino fueled speculation about his position at the bureau in July when he published a bizarre statement about what he had seen during his time there.
“The Director and I are committed to stamping out public corruption and the political weaponization of both law enforcement and intelligence operations,” he wrote on social media. “But what I have learned in the course of our properly predicated and necessary investigations into these aforementioned matters, has shocked me down to my core. We cannot run a Republic like this. I’ll never be the same after learning what I’ve learned.”
He added that they would investigate these matters according to the law.
RELATED: Bongino and Bondi clash over botched handling of Epstein files
He had also previously said that the job was very hard on his family life because of the long hours.
“I gave up everything for this,” he said. “I’m in there at 7:30 in the morning. … I stare at these four walls all day in D.C. by myself, divorced from my wife — not divorced, but I mean separated, divorced — and it’s hard. I mean, we love each other, and it’s hard to be apart.”
Bongino was a vehement supporter of Trump and his policies on “The Dan Bongino Show.”

Liberal protesters dump ice into harbor on anniversary of Boston Tea Party to protest deportations
While many were celebrating the 252nd anniversary of the Boston Tea Party, liberal demonstrators tried to usurp the moment to protest the administration’s immigration enforcement policies.
Rather than dump tea into the harbor, the protesters from Boston Indivisible tossed ice into the harbor, symbolizing their opposition to Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
‘This is a symbolic measure saying we want ICE to leave our communities alone.’
The group claimed that about 1,000 people joined their protest on Tuesday evening. They tried to equate the colonists’ struggle against government oppression with the plight of illegal aliens who ignore immigration law.
“This is not left or right. This is not progressive or conservative. It’s being American,” said Martha Laposata of the group.
Group members said that they used environmentally safe ice that was approved by the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection.
“Anybody who understands the nature of our country should be doing something. This is not the time to sit home and watch TV,” said Mary Sweeney.
Video from the event showed protesters chanting, “No Kings! No Tariffs! No ICE!” as they tossed the ice into the harbor.

“This is a symbolic measure saying we want ICE to leave our communities alone,” said Alex Rikleen, a candidate for the U.S. Senate who lists his pronouns in his profile.
The protesters said they hoped the demonstration would encourage others to speak out against the mass deportation policies implemented by President Donald Trump.

101-year-old WWII vet cheers on Trump in fiery patriotic speech: ‘Godd**mit, put a uniform on me — I’ll go tomorrow’
A 101-year-old World War II veteran delivered a passionate speech about his love for America and President Donald Trump’s leadership during an event at Mar-a-Lago this week.
On Tuesday, America’s Future hosted the Second Annual Champions for America Celebration Gala to honor and recognize individuals “whose lives reflect courage, sacrifice, and unwavering commitment to faith, freedom, and service.”
‘This was a reminder of who we are.’
Navy veteran and Bronze Star of Valor recipient William “Bill” Dillon, who served from 1942 to 1947, shared powerful remarks with the audience.
“There’s nobody in the godd**n world who cares more for this nation than this guy that you’re looking at,” Dillon stated. “And I think Trump is not only the president of the United States; he is the president of the world.”
Dillon complimented Trump for his “fantastic job” negotiating on behalf of the country.
“I’m 101, going on 102. Godd**mit, put a uniform on me — I’ll go tomorrow!” Dillon declared.

Matt Van Swol, a former nuclear scientist at the Department of Energy, stated that he had the honor of meeting Dillon at the event.
“Bill said that he has lived under 22 American presidents and that President Trump is his favorite. … Truly a special person,” Van Swol said.
“A World War II veteran, Bronze Star of Valor recipient, submariner, and aerospace pioneer, Bill delivered an energetic, passionate speech that reminded everyone what real courage looks like. From serving aboard the USS Sailfish to helping build America’s early space program, his life reflects sacrifice, resolve, and love of country,” America’s Future said, referring to Dillon. “This was a reminder of who we are.”

America’s Future highlighted remarks from actor Isaiah Washington, human biologist Gary Brecka, author Angela Stanton-King, and General Charlie Flynn.
The organization referred to the event as an “unforgettable evening.”
“Tonight, America’s Future gathered to honor courage, faith, and conviction. Bringing together voices and leaders who refuse to stay silent when the stakes are high. From powerful remarks to heartfelt moments of recognition, this was a night that reminded us what America stands for and why the fight for her future matters,” the organization wrote.

‘Trantifa’ NYE terrorist bomb plot foiled; leftist media brands it non-violent
Members of what’s been dubbed a “trantifa” group called Turtle Island Liberation Front have been arrested for allegedly plotting a horrific New Year’s Eve terror attack in the Los Angeles area.
“After an intense investigation, the Department of Justice, working with our FBI, prevented what would have been a massive and horrific terror plot in the Central District of California (Orange County and Los Angeles),” Attorney General Pam Bondi wrote in a post on X.
“The Turtle Island Liberation Front — a far-left, pro-Palestine, anti-government, and anti-capitalist group — was preparing to conduct a series of bombings against multiple targets in California beginning New Year’s Eve. The group also planned to target ICE agents and vehicles,” she reported.
The Turtle Island Liberation Front allegedly calls for decolonization, tribal sovereignty, and “the working class to rise up and fight back against capitalism.”
“Now, just in case you were wondering what that term meant, it’s the term that lifted billions of people out of extreme poverty over the past couple of decades. So, why wouldn’t we want to bomb people to stop it?” BlazeTV host Stu Burguiere jokes on “Stu Does America.”
Found among the possessions of those allegedly plotting the attacks were “free Palestine” flyers.
“What a surprise,” Burguiere jokes again. “This is stunning. ‘Free Palestine’ flyers at the campsite where the suspects were working with the bomb-making materials. And, of course, they found a bunch of this stuff.”
In a photo taken as evidence and shared by the U.S. Justice Department, handwritten signs read, “Death to America,” “Long live Turtle Island,” and “Death to ICE.”
Despite this very clear message of “death,” the mainstream media is claiming that these terrorists did not want anyone to be hurt.
“It’s important to note … that in this complaint, nowhere do they allege that any of these individuals wanted anybody to be harmed as a result of these pipe bombs specifically,” a host of the “Start Here” podcast on ABC News said cheerfully.
The hosts went on to point out that Turtle Island’s plan was to have follow-up attacks after the bombings, which “included plans to target ICE agents and vehicles with pipe bombs.”
“Strikes me that if someone’s plan was to target ICE agents,” Burguiere comments, “perhaps that means they did want to hurt people.”

Fani Willis has ugly meltdown when confronted with how much her office paid her ex-lover to prosecute Trump
Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis had an ugly meltdown on Wednesday while being questioned by a Georgia state Senate special committee on the topic of her failed prosecution of President Donald Trump.
‘Y’all want to come in and be daddy.’
The presentation of evidence in the hearing highlighting how much money Willis’ office paid her former lover Nathan Wade apparently struck a nerve.
Quick background
On Nov. 1, 2021, Willis hired Nathan Wade as a special prosecutor for an investigation into possible interference in the state’s 2020 general election even though Wade had reportedly never prosecuted a felony case during his time as a prosecutor in Cobb County.
Wade — who had allegedly been romantically involved with Willis for several months prior to accepting the job and filed for divorce against his wife, Jocelyn Wade, the day after securing it — was paid over $650,000 in legal fees before withdrawing from the case in March 2024.
Bank records submitted in Wade’s divorce proceedings revealed that Willis, who authorized Wade’s compensation, went on luxurious trips with Wade while the Trump investigation was ongoing. Wade apparently paid for some of their travel expenses.

Willis was disqualified from the case in December 2024 due to the scandalous affair.
Last month, Willis’ replacement, Peter Skandalakis, dropped the case, and Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee ordered the case against Trump and the co-defendants “dismissed in its entirety.”
Unlike Trump, Willis’ problems in Georgia were far from over.
Last year, the Georgia Senate established a special committee to investigate allegations of misconduct against Willis. The Special Committee on Investigations, whose investigation was renewed in January, brought the leftist district attorney in for questioning on Wednesday.
The hearing
In the combative hearing — over the course of which Willis repeatedly tried to pose and answer her own questions and routinely spoke out of turn — state Sen. Greg Dolezal (R) pressed the district attorney about her working relationship with Wade.
When confronted with documents indicating how much her office paid her ex-lover, Willis said, “I don’t review those documents. So you’re asking me to look at documents that I haven’t for the first time.”
Willis then launched into a full-throated defense of Wade and his compensation, stating, “What I can tell you is that I allowed Mr. Wade to bill 160 hours a week and then Mr. Wade would be the first one in the office making sure that my staff arrived. He corrected their behavior.”
“He got there before them. He left after him [sic]. He taught them how to do this case, and he was a leader to that team and a public servant,” continued Willis. “And for that, him, like me, has been threatened thousands of times.”
Evidently desperate to change the topic and keen to exercise a well-used reflex, Willis cried racism, telling lawmakers, “You want something to investigate as a legislature? Investigate how many times they’ve called me the N-word.”
At one stage, the diversion-happy district attorney told the lawmakers, “I know y’all want to come in and be daddy and create QAnon committees that will judge prosecutors.”

Prominent MIT professor — reportedly Jewish, pro-Israel — shot to death in his home; no suspect in custody
A prominent professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology was fatally shot in his Brookline home, the Associated Press reported.
Nuno Loureiro was Jewish and a vocal pro-Israel nuclear scientist, the Jerusalem Post said; but the paper added that it could not confirm speculations by Jewish organizations that Loureiro was targeted for his political affiliations.
‘And a shooting in a state where it’s so hard to even have a gun?’
The shooting occurred on the heels of a deadly shooting Saturday at another prestigious school in the region — Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island. Police there also have yet to find a suspect. Brookline is about 90 minutes northeast of Providence. The FBI told the AP it knows of no connection between the two crimes.
Loureiro — a married 47-year-old from Portugal — was shot Monday night and died Tuesday at a local hospital, the AP noted. WBZ-TV said in its video report that Loureiro was shot several times in the foyer of his home; a neighbor said he lived in a first-floor apartment.
A reporter suggested to the neighbor on camera that the crime is atypical for Brookline, and the neighbor replied that it was a “surprise … and a shooting in a state where it’s so hard to even have a gun?” The neighbor also said fellow neighbors noted a nearby car was “parked in the wrong direction” and “seemed to be waiting.”
RELATED: Critics lambaste MIT’s vice president for equity and inclusion over ‘race baiting’ social media post
Authorities have not disclosed a possible motive, the AP said, and the Norfolk District Attorney’s Office said no suspects were in custody as of Wednesday morning.
More from the AP:
Loureiro joined MIT in 2016 and was named last year to lead the school’s Plasma Science and Fusion Center, one of its largest laboratories. The center has around 250 researchers working across seven buildings and focuses on advancing clean energy technology and other research.
The professor grew up in Viseu in central Portugal, studied in Lisbon, and earned a doctorate in London, according to the university. Before moving to MIT, he worked at a nuclear fusion research institute in Lisbon.
“He shone a bright light as a mentor, friend, teacher, colleague, and leader and was universally admired for his articulate, compassionate manner,” Dennis Whyte, an engineering professor who previously led MIT’s Plasma Science and Fusion Center, told a campus publication, according to the AP.

Trans-identifying radicals among those arrested in alleged planned New Year’s Eve terror plot
Federal authorities arrested five individuals in connection with an alleged planned New Year’s Eve terror plot. A criminal complaint revealed that two of the suspects claim to identify as transgender.
The Department of Justice held a press conference about the alleged thwarted terror attack on Monday.
‘This case is another reminder about the dangers that radicalized Antifa-like groups pose to public safety and the rule of law.’
Bill Essayli, the first assistant for the U.S. attorney for the Central District of California, explained that, on Friday, his office and the FBI arrested several members of a “far-left, anti-government domestic terror cell who self-identify as the Turtle Island Liberation Front.”
The suspects were also members of a more radical offshoot of the group called the Order of the Black Lotus, according to Essayli. He highlighted the arrests of the four individuals from the Los Angeles area, stating that they have been charged with conspiracy and possession of an unregistered destructive device. He noted that his office plans to file additional charges.
The arrested individuals were accused of attempting to construct and detonate improvised explosive devices in the Mojave Desert in preparation for alleged planned attacks on New Year’s Eve at five locations across Los Angeles, California.
Essayli claimed that the arrested individuals were planning to bomb multiple U.S. companies. They also allegedly planned follow-up attacks against Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents.

Authorities uncovered posters associated with the TILF that included threatening language, including “Death to America” and “Death to ICE.”
“This case is another reminder about the dangers that radicalized Antifa-like groups pose to public safety and the rule of law,” Essayli said.
One of the four, 32-year-old Zachary Page, reportedly identifies as transgender and requested that authorities send him to a women’s jail, the New York Post reported.
Agents with the FBI’s New Orleans field office arrested a fifth individual tied to the TILF who was allegedly planning a separate attack in Louisiana.
An unsealed criminal complaint revealed that the suspect, 29-year-old Micah James Legnon, is a Marine veteran who claims to identify as transgender, the Post reported.

Legnon, a man who uses “she/her” pronouns, went by “Kateri TheWitch” and “DarkWitch She/Her” in online chat groups and allegedly posted threats against ICE on social media.
“S**t time to recreate Waco tx with these f**kers. F**k ice,” Legnon allegedly wrote, referring to the 1993 Waco massacre that resulted in the deaths of four federal agents and over 70 civilians.
Legnon is currently in custody and facing charges of making threats over interstate commerce.
Journalist Andy Ngo, who was the first to identify Legnon, stated that the suspect’s “social media is filled with posts calling for the m—rder of people he labels as ‘fascists.’”
An attorney for Page declined a request for comment from the Intercept. Court documents did not list an attorney for Legnon.
