Minnesota Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar told the press months ago, that it was right wing misinformation to classify her as a millionaire. Then people started looking into her financials and she is right, she is not a millionaire. She is a multi-millionaire.
Omar, who makes a salary of less than $200,000 per year, is suddenly, somehow, worth upwards of $30 million. How can this be?
Also, isn’t Omar part of the ‘down with the rich’ crowd that embraces the politics of Bernie Sanders?
The Washington Free Beacon broke the story:
Ilhan Omar Said It’s ‘Categorically False’ To Call Her a Millionaire. Her Net Worth Just Reached Up to $30 Million, an Increase of at Least 3,500 Percent in One Year.
Rep. Ilhan Omar’s personal fortune exploded to upwards of $30 million in 2024, the Minnesota Democrat disclosed just months after telling the press it is “ridiculous” and “categorically false” to say she is worth millions of dollars.
Omar reported in her latest financial disclosure that she and her husband, former political consultant Tim Mynett, accumulated a net worth at the end of 2024 ranging from at least $6 million to $30 million. Their wealth is derived almost entirely from the value of Mynett’s ownership stake in his two companies that, together, were worth no more than $51,000 at the end of 2023. The exact value of Omar’s personal fortune at the end of 2024 is unclear—lawmakers disclose the value of their holdings and debts in ranges. Still, the figures in Omar’s latest disclosures show that her and her husband’s net worth skyrocketed by at least 3,500 percent in just one year.
Omar’s extraordinary accumulation of wealth in 2024 could raise uncomfortable questions for the Minnesota Democrat, who in February told Business Insider that she has been the subject of a “coordinated right-wing disinformation campaign” that falsely claims she’s worth millions of dollars.
How is this even mathematically possible?

Is anyone in authority going to ask her to explain this?
