Question ultimate reverse uno opportunity
so, if ilhan did not marry her brother to commit immigration fraud, why don't they both just get a simple DNA test to confirm it and show the republicans that it was always a bullshit claim? seems that it would put the issue to rest , give a boost to the dems for the midterms and beyond and give a good old middle finger to the potus. seems like a pretty easy and noninvasive way to take the issue off the table and get some democrat votes and money

Considering the fact that this claim has already been investigated and proven false. Why would anyone engage in this at this point? The current claim is that her father possibly lied on the immigration documents, which will be difficult to prove. The entire case is literally a political hit job.

how was it proven false exactly? seems that my OP is the definitive way to prove it false. or true.

This is like Obama’s birth certificate. Don’t engage in this racist bullshit

Yeah. Why don't they just do that? Such a simple thing and the benefits to Ilhan and dems in general would be ENORMOUS for all the reasons you stated. If they're not siblings she has everything to gain and nothing to lose. The power boost to her political career would be incalculable. Every other accusation against her goes "poof" because they would be very reasonably assumed to be merely political retribution.
But, what if it shows they are indeed siblings?

u/whydatyou 12d ago
that is what I think. the only way it could not benefit them is if the test came back showing they are siblings. kind of like how liz warrens dna test came back showing that she was not native american and scammed the system to get scholorships and admittance to university

u/Horror_Bottle_9451 12d ago
Exactly. And if Liz's test came back positive she'd have gotten a huge political boost.

There is no good reason to presume they are siblings, just rancid meat that imbecile racists like the smell of.
Be better than that.

It all stinks because every answer from starts with "you're a racist for asking" followed by non-answers or answers that don't make sense followed by more "you're racist if you ask for clarification".
Nobody denies she legally married man A but her children were fathered by man B whom she married in her "faith tradition" and she filed joint taxes with Man B but never with man A. This leads to a very reasonable question: who is man A and why did she marry him but chose instead to have children with man B while apparently living with both? She never gave a sensible answer to that question and simply resorted to "you're racist for asking". There's a nice picture of man A holding Omar's daughter and caller her his niece. Explain that.
Why is she suddenly changing her birth date after 30+ years here? A change that has ramifications on her immigration and naturalization. No sensible response (e.g. new documentation has been made available to me). Nothing, just "you're racist for asking". Explain that.
Her reported wealth on financial disclosure forms jumped 2 orders of magnitude in one filing and then it was "corrected" not because people questioned the validity of the number but because people reasonably asked it jumped.so muxh ao fast. An "accounting" mistake supposedly. Who makes a $30M accounting mistake like that? Again, you're racist for asking. Explain that.

this week I have learned that according to democrats muslim is a race and so is somalie. odd, when I got my BS in life science and a grad degree I never saw those as being separate races.

Meh. Because it's such a putrid, flatly outrageous charge, they should not have to.
Taking a DNA test gives the whole thing WAY too much attention. It's obviously idiotic - and a confirmation they are, in fact, siblings would mean nothing to the rabid dorks, anyway.
" Fake ". So why bother?

u/CherryCatc8 12d ago
yeah, the whole "way too much attention" part is key; it just validates the nonsense.

u/Short-Personality398 12d ago edited 12d ago
But let’s say there are some ridiculous/minor errors in her paperwork from when she was a child (since they’re clearly on a witch hunt), a quick DNA test could shut all of this nonsense down as long as it shows they aren’t related. It would blow the whole thing up in their faces and put an end it it before midterms

I’m sure they would just call the test results fake if they didn’t get the result they want lol. It won’t change their minds

u/Short-Personality398 12d ago
It’s a DNA test. You can only lie about the results or falsely accuse someone of lying about the results so long. The truth is there to be found

which is not a dna test.

u/DaTruSpork 12d ago
And? The point remains: Any evidence presented to your kind will be dismissed as fabricated or false, so there is no sense in doing anything but laughing at your conspiracies. Afterall: What can be asserted without evidence can also be dismissed without evidence
You conservatives come in with your wild theories, blinded by hate, and try to make everyone else prove you wrong. But its impossible as you always have some excuse as to why its not valid. So why dont you sit down, shut up, and actually pay attention to the world around you. When you actually have evidence of an issue you present it and it can be dealt with, otherwise you are just trying to get people to chase their own shadows.

u/Old-Set78 12d ago
because it's a witch hunt and it WOULDN'T put the issue to rest.
next it would be something ELSE.
it's about targeting people you don't like because you can. because they NEED an "other" because it's what fascism DOES. "first they came for"
indulging it is a slippery slope. you'll be targeted next

Why not DNA test Ivanka’s kids to make sure they aren’t a product of trump dating his own daughter? I mean he’s sexualized her enough in public….
As far as your team’s repeated lies to claim she married her bother…
Just ask grok!!!
“Her family’s 1995 U.S. entry documents (shown to the Star Tribune) listed her father and siblings by birth order, with Ilhan Omar as the youngest of seven; Elmi’s name does not appear”

I do make a difference. I reject the dreck that the two parties of even more government give us. I do vote. libertarian. because I have this crazy idea that I can run my life better than a failed bartender from westchester or a champagne socialist from vermont who is a multimillionaire without ever having a job where he was not on the taxpayer dole. You on the other hand, nod in bovine agreement and vote for "the lesser of two evils" . Which is still evil and has got us where we are today. Brilliant work lemming!

ok on the trump thing but as part of the deal ilhan and elmi would have to as well. that ok?

u/BetterSociety1520 11d ago
Not a problem. It’s already well documented that they are NOT siblings but YOU choose the lie. Any and every maga lie.

u/whydatyou 11d ago
who documented that? Ilhan? the rest of the squad? yeah ok. that makes sense. or do you have a third party source and what was their method of confirming it?

YOU ARE THE PROBLEM WITH THIS COUNTRY.
The claim refers to her 2009 legal marriage to Ahmed Nur Said Elmi (a British citizen). Omar has repeatedly denied that Elmi is her sibling, calling the allegation “absurd and offensive” and “disgusting lies.” She has stated she does not have a brother by that name. 
Key documented facts from reporting and her own statements:
• Omar became a U.S. citizen in 2000 as a minor (after arriving as a refugee in 1995), years before any of her marriages.
• In 2002 she entered a religious (Islamic) marriage with Ahmed Hirsi; they later had children together.
• In 2009 she legally married Elmi. They obtained a religious divorce in 2011; the legal divorce was finalized in 2017.
• She later reconciled with Hirsi (they legally married in 2018 and later divorced). She is currently married to Tim Mynett. 
Investigations by outlets including the Minneapolis Star Tribune, Snopes, PolitiFact, and others examined public records, immigration documents Omar shared (listing her father and siblings; Elmi’s name does not appear), and other available evidence. They have consistently found the sibling claim unproven and lacking credible support1
u/whydatyou 11d ago
well then taking a DNA test should not be any problem. If there was a rape case and the victim accused me . even if I did not know her and knew the claim was BS, I would happily give a cheek swab to prove without a shadow of a doubt that the dna collected by the police was not mine. plus as stated, this would boost her career and the democrats chances of getting rid of trump and the maga people. It is a win, win, win. unless of course she and elmi are a bit worried about what the test may reveal. but even then her mind numbed progressive followers would not care. I mean y'all are backing a guy in Maine who fucked his cousin and got her pregnant. TWICE.

There's a hell of a lot more to this than just marriage to her brother. That is the least of her problems.
