Trump reveals a surprise: “Ilhan Omar’s name is not real, and she married her brother.”

US President Donald Trump once again directed his criticism at Democratic House member Ilhan Omar, who has been under federal investigation for about a week.

Trump confirmed in a post on his “Truth Social” account on Friday that the name under which she ran for election and was sworn in to Congress is not real. He wrote, "It has just been revealed that Ilhan Omar's name is not Ilhan Omar, which is the name she used to run for election and swear in Congress. Rather, her real name is completely different, which is Ilhan Nur Saeed Elmi, and her last name is, amazingly, the exact same name as her brother Ahmed Nur Saeed Elmi, the person she is said to have married and had children with."

He also mentioned that when Omar was asked whether she had married her brother or not, she replied, “Not to my knowledge,” adding, “It seems that she did not know that in some way?”

He called on her to immediately resign from Congress, because she used a fake name to take the oath

He concluded by writing sarcastically: “Please inform the Speaker of the House, James Michael Johnson, that the Democratic Party has just conceded her seat.”

This came after federal security agents searched last Monday the home of a Democratic member of the House of Representatives in Washington as part of a criminal investigation, which represented a major escalation in the confrontation between Trump and the representative known for her sharp criticism of him.

The inspection took place three weeks before the midterm elections that will determine who controls Congress, and was carried out by members of the Homeland Security Investigations Agency, which is the investigative arm of the US Immigration Enforcement Agency, according to what Fox News reported.

Meanwhile, informed sources reported that the inspection operation is linked to an investigation into a criminal fraud case related to immigration papers submitted by her late father on behalf of the Somali-born congresswoman when she was a child.

In turn, the Ministry of Justice confirmed in a statement at the time that agents executed a “judicially authorized search warrant” in the Washington area, but officials did not specify the age or nature of the investigation.

On the other hand, Omar considered the operation “an attempt to target Trump’s political opponents and use federal law enforcement agencies as a weapon.”

She also indicated in posts on X that Trump had targeted her "for ten years, with baseless lies and smear campaigns, as part of a campaign of political intimidation."

The US President has always criticized Omar, and directed harsh criticism at her, considering her to be "a completely corrupt and terrible person who comes from a damaged country that is no longer a country," in reference to Somalia.

He also accused her of involvement in bringing illegal immigrants from Somalia.

Ilhan Omar (44 years old), a left-wing Democrat, is considered one of Trump's harshest critics, especially against the backdrop of the widespread campaign launched by his administration against irregular immigrants.
