From the link (my italics) -- QUOTE:

Democratic Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar’s 2020 campaign contributed to nearly 80% of the total political payments her husband's consulting firm received ahead of the November election, according to federal filings.

E Street Group, owned by Omar's husband Tim Mynett and entrepreneur Will Hailer, received more than $3.7 million in campaign spending over the course of the 2020 election cycle, filings show.

Omar's campaign contributed more than $2.9 million to that total, The Washington Free Beacon first reported, citing Federal Election Commission filings. The congresswoman's contributions to her husband's firm made up just over 78% of E Street Group's total payments between January 2019 and November 2020.

If I recall, something similar happened in 2018. Then there was the bru- ha- ha about marrying her brother.
DOJ was investigation.

Presumably, nothing came of it.

I think it's pretty well established that nothing's going to stick to her.

Not allowed to call her out for corruption. She is a Muslim POC.

Repubs, dem, black, white. How does this stuff happen and how in the world is it legal.

Anyone with any integrity has to acknowledge that this can't be legal. I mean it doesn't even begin to pass the basic ethically sniff test.

He got paid 2 plus million for his work for her campaign which means she got 2 plus million.

I mean what the...........?

Exactly.

I hate to say it, but I think she might end up being the Maxine Waters of her generation. NOTHING she does is too bad for the voters in her district to keep re-electing her.

I was told she has a huge Somalian district and she put out fliers in Somalian and her opponent didn't.

Is this the same Fox that cancelled Lou Dobbs because they are getting sued due to his lies concerning fraud and voting machines?
