BREAKING — Important Ilhan Omar thread on just-released campaign finance investigation conclusions:

The report’s finding that @IlhanMN committed SIX campaign finance violations is, amazingly, not the report’s key takeaway.

(1/x)

As I have written, @IlhanMN likely committed a remarkable number of additional felonies due to her fraudulent 2009-2017 marriage.

Today’s report appears to confirm the worst of them: @IlhanMN may have filed EIGHT YEARS of fraudulent federal and state tax returns. (2/x)

The report states that @IlhanMN and Ahmed Hirsi filed joint tax returns in 2014 and 2015.

Yet they were not married. @IlhanMN was married to Ahmed Nur Said Elmi from 2009-2017.

According to both federal and MN law, this is illegal. (3/x)

There is no “unmarried filing jointly” status.

@IlhanMN and Hirsi did not have a recognized common law marriage from another state. (Which would have been worse, anyway — it would have been bigamy.) (4/x)

Here’s the report page stating @IlhanMN and Hirsi filed jointly (5/x):

To summarize:

The report claims that @IlhanMN and Ahmed Hirsi filed joint tax returns in at least 2014-2015.

Yet @IlhanMN was legally married to another man from 2009-2017.

A sitting congresswoman may have filed EIGHT YEARS of fraudulent, felonious, tax returns. (End)

Update:

The @StarTribune ignored the bombshell.

Also:

If you think "joint tax returns" is in the report so media might notice -- your thought is warranted.

Media has hid the truth about @IlhanMN from voters for 3 years. It's about to ruin them all.

Update:

Remarkable incompetence from MN CBS affiliate @WCCO: Her "now-husband" -- meaning "not at the time."

A once-in-a-career local story with **global** implications -- and they **don't even mention** their own coverage confirms @ilhanMN is a felon.

Update:

Finally, this thread has opened the floodgates.

@FoxNews reporter @Gregg_Re gets the pivotal information in his headline, focuses on the report's admission -- and what it implies -- in his article, and links to my thread:
