Ilhan Omar’s husband received $635,000 in Covid-19 bailout money for his consulting firm, despite the congresswoman paying his company nearly $2.25 million this year, according to a new report.
Tim Mynett’s E Street Group was given $134,800 in Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans and an additional $500,000 in Economic Injury Disaster loans (EIDL) in April, records show.
Mynett co-owns the Washington D.C. firm, which has also been paid $2,256,700 since the start of 2020 from Omar’s campaign for services that include digital advertising, fundraising consulting and website production, campaign records show.
DailyMail.com revealed that Omar married the political consultant back in March, which sparked scrutiny and a complaint to the Federal Election Commission by a conservative group that alleged campaign funds paid for Mynett’s personal travel.
The FEC has taken no public action on that complaint, and Omar, 38, has said payments to Mynett’s firm were legitimate.
Still, Omar announced in mid-November that her campaign was terminating its contract to ‘make sure that anybody who is supporting our campaign with their time or financial support feels there is no perceived issue with that support’.

Omar wrote: ‘Every dollar that was spent went to a team of more than twenty that were helping us fight back against attacks and organize on the ground and online in a COVID-19 world.
‘And Tim – beyond his salary at the firm – received no profit whatsoever from the consulting relationship the firm provided.’
Omar’s campaign was big business for E Street Group, reportedly paying the firm more than $1.1 million for advertising and consulting in the third quarter of this year alone.
The raw figures includes regular monthly payments of $67,000, broken down as $50,000 for ‘digital advertising,’ $12,000 for ‘fundraising consulting’ and $5,000 for ‘digital consulting.’
The revelation raised eyebrows among some who accused the congresswoman – who is frequently a target of criticism from Republicans – of potential conflict of interest.
‘Omar’s campaign chest is looking more and more like a dowry,’ Peter Flaherty, the head of a group which filed a complaint with the FEC over Omar’s spending, told DailyMail.com back in April.
‘Most candidates for federal office keep a close eye on their vendors to make sure they aren’t being overcharged, but with her being married to her chief fundraiser the incentive may be the other way round as the money spent is going directly to the family.

She is a worthless piece of dung and NEVER should have been allowed to run for office in the American Government. Now she needs to be gone. The corruption in this Government is unbelievable for a nation like America!

Here’s the real reason the illiberals are so fully bedded down with Islam. Slap a scarf on, call yourself a minority in a world where they are in fact a majority, and deliver up votes for dollars with impunity and full awareness that those in power in their ranks live as they please.

She does represent our Muslim terrorist recruiting capital but I wonder… did fraud help her get a second term?

I don’t know whether she ‘needed’ fraudulent balloting to cement her win in that twisted state!
Minnesota is FILLED with dhimmini Democrat voters who probably fell over themselves to feel good by voting for a Muslima from a terror-filled country without a functional government.
Remember, those same Democrats also elected Hakim Muhammad (he calls himself ‘Keith Ellison’) as their state attorney general!

Most certainly. That is if you count paying and intimidating old people who don’t even speak English or understand democracy to turn over their absentee ballots to her henchmen.

She has gone beyond loathsome to something one cannot say here. She is the symbol of what is wrong with this country, you can count the ways.

Ilhan Omar’s gave husband $635k in Covid-19 bailout money for his ‘consulting’ firm
Well golly, Pamela, what do you expect? I mean, it’s the Democrat way- why else would you be in politics, except that you can’t make money any other way (unless you inherit it)? So of course, you take your crack-addict son on your Veep plane to China, and you shuffle COVID bailout money to your husband. Isn’t that the reason we have government??

She is a greedy little monster. She has already had troubles with taking campaign money and miss using that for personal enrichment and of course the being married to two people at one time was ignored. I guess someone, Barr? still has that under “investigation.” It’s beyond ridiculous! The two tiered justice system rolls on.

Let me know if and why you find out. This is not even new news. It is just more BS on top of the citizenship fraud that allowed her to be here. And no one seems to be able to do anything about it OR maybe no one is willing to do anything.
