Omar, Obama, And The Danger Of False Identities

Be on the lookout for John Brennan.

On Columbus Day, Homeland Security Investigations executed a judicially authorized search warrant of Representative Ilhan Omar’s home.  For several months, there have been rumors that she was under investigation for immigration fraud.  A few weeks ago, White House Border Czar Tom Homan acknowledged that the congresswoman was the subject of an ongoing criminal investigation.  U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro says her office is investigating Omar for potential financial crimes.  The D.C. magistrate judge who authorized the search of Omar’s residence is a registered Democrat who donated to Hillary Clinton and received professional appointments from other Democrats.

Despite the fact that Democrats wholeheartedly cheered when President Joe Biden and Attorney General Merrick Garland authorized FBI agents to use deadly force against the Trump family when they raided his Mar-a-Lago home in 2022 to retrieve evidence of the Department of Justice’s unlawful spying operations against Republican politicians during Barack Obama’s presidency, the people who repeatedly told us for years that “nobody is above the law” now insist that the raid of Omar’s residence is an “abuse of power,” “political retribution,” and the act of “a fascist police state.”  

As news of the Omar raid broke, CNN’s Jake Tapper called it “vindictive” and questioned whether it was a “legitimate law enforcement action.”  Tapper’s supposedly expert guest — a Democrat lawfare operative — responded to the host’s predetermined judgment of the investigation by calling it, “Partisan.  Racism.  Xenophobia.” 

Bill Kristol — who, amazingly enough, was once regarded as a trusted public intellectual among Republican voters before revealing himself to have been a complete fraud who lied about almost everything he long claimed to believe — posted this urgent request on X: “Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country.”  When FBI agents were pawing through First Lady Melania Trump’s undergarments back in 2022, Kristol encouraged Americans to be patient and to avoid any rush to judgment — even though the criminal targeting of an American president was unprecedented and shocking.
