I've avoided @IlhanMN's affair. The only newsworthy element was the large payments.

But ...

Omar *entered the wife's home while she was away*.

WOW.

Voters deserve to know that.

'My husband dumped me for Ilhan Omar, DC mom says in divorce filing' nypost.com/2019/08/27/my-…
@IlhanMN That is an objectively disturbing claim about @IlhanMN's moral judgment. It has nothing to do with complicated adult relationships. Entering the home, even if invited by Mynett, is troubling.

Still think she can't be the multiple felon all the evidence shows her to be?
@IlhanMN I've described the media's @IlhanMN coverage as "failing a perfect credibility test" of professionalism and ideology.

They picked the most corrupt, bigoted person to fight corruption and bigotry.

Seems they picked the most anti-feminist woman around to fight sexism, too.

Just two likes now? And a Twitter search shows no evidence of “100s of trolls”?

At this point, w/ virtually your entire @nypost piece being material published by me, Scott, or Preya w/out crediting us, I am extremely skeptical that your source... (1/x)
... whom you claim has known @IlhanMN and Ahmed Hirsi for 20 years, either exists or is close enough to them to give useful information.

For 3 years, our sources have been frightened for their safety and provided verifiable evidence to back their need to stay anonymous. (2/x)
The claim that someone was willing to give such obviously identifying information to you, just to get a claim to the public that was superfluous after Scott’s article yesterday, is tough to accept.

This story keeps exposing bad/inept actors in both media and Congress. (3/3)

NEW Ilhan Omar update:

Scott Johnson of Powerline reveals what his sources in the MN Somali community are saying about Ahmed Hirsi — @IlhanMN’s legal husband: powerlineblog.com/archives/2019/… (1/x)
Scott’s sources are touching on the same theme I have been hearing.

While MN media is focused on her legal woes, Ilhan is perhaps more concerned about keeping any “smoking gun” proof that she violated her wedding vows from her Somali/Islamic voters. (2/x)
Note what we have heard from Ilhan Omar lately:

1) A blanket denial of the affair/separation, and

2) Ilhan recently appeared with Hirsi and her father, as her friend/reporter Mukhtar Yare told the community all is well: (3/x)

Color laser printers have long printed "microdots" -- this allows for forensic tracking to the printer.

Has @FBI processed it, @IlhanMN?

Fair doesn't end until 9/2. @FBI would likely advise against causing a public scare by posting this before it could determine credibility.
@FBI @IlhanMN So I would presume this document has been checked by law enforcement. I hope the perpetrator has been identified, that you are not in danger, and that all who use threats to make a political statement are prosecuted for the despicable act.
@FBI @IlhanMN From the @WCCO report at 4:50p EST:

"Sources tell WCCO that the threat was the reason Omar didn’t give advanced notice of where she would be at the fair on Thursday."

Voters deserve to know who's funding candidates in this Dem primary. I don't take a dime from for-profit corporations or industry interest groups. My opponent has a looser standard. Over half of his itemized contributions come from Republican donors or close affiliated orgs.
Of his 43 itemized contributions, 19 (totaling $11,251) came from Republican donors, or from subsidiaries or C-suite staff of companies that donate heavily to Republicans. Can he run in a Democratic primary with Republican money and keep a straight face? He should return it!
Of the 19 R-donors, 8 gave to Corey Stewart. Dem primary voters should ask what Stewart's donors see in Wolfe. Is it his stance on abortion? From WaPo: "Abortion is a terrible thing; almost always, abortion represents a moral failure," Wolfe said. washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content…

#IASPR18 session 6 is on "Power and Patriarchy" chaired by @dramyburge
The first paper is on “The Soft Power of Popular Romance” by Heather Schell (George Washington University) #IASPR18
Hard power refers to familiar modes of military and economic might. Soft power refers to the ability to persuade rather than compel. Heather doesn't think there's anything inherently soft or insidious about soft power. But it's a useful lens. #IASPR18

Home
no one leaves home unless home chases you
fire under feet
hot blood in your belly
it’s not something you ever thought of doing
until the blade burnt threats into
your neck
and even then you carried the anthem under
your breath

#home #warsanshire #poems
#WhereAreTheChildren
only tearing up your passport in an airport toilets
sobbing as each mouthful of paper
made it clear that you wouldn’t be going back.

you have to understand,
that no one puts their children in a boat
unless the water is safer than the land
no one burns their palms
under trains
beneath carriages
no one spends days and nights in the stomach of a truck
feeding on newspaper unless the miles travelled
means something more than journey.
no one crawls under fences
no one wants to be beaten
pitied

**OFFICIAL STATEMENT**
Last year, when I decided to run for Congress, I did it for one reason: to make people’s lives better. The political environment in Washington, D.C., has become toxic due to rampant corruption, and the only way to ensure that our interests are... (1/13)
...represented is by electing candidates beholden to no one except the constituents they serve.
I’ve dedicated my life to fighting for justice for all, regardless of background, belief, or ability to pay. (2/13)
When I watched Jeff Sessions, a racist, become our Attorney General & rollback the little progress that our country had made in combating mass incarceration, I decided to step up to fight for the people who have been left behind by an increasingly unjust and corrupt system.(3/13)

Meet Arthur Jones. He denies the Holocaust, calling it an "extortion racket." He says that he stands “shoulder to shoulder, philosophically,” with President Trump.

nytimes.com/2018/02/07/us/…
Arthur is running unopposed for the @GOP nomination for Congress in Illinois's 3rd District.

He's predicted to lose against incumbent @RepLipinski, but let's not rest on our laurels. We know what happens when someone is predicted to lose then we don't go out and vote to be sure.

1/ We know that the Russians tried to penetrate the voting systems of 21 states, including Illinois. We need to make sure that the Russian attack is investigated so voters learn what happened and can have confidence that their vote counts.
2/ I’ll investigate the Russian attack on voting systems in Illinois and issue a report of our findings. Voters deserve to know what happened. Then I’ll issue recommendations to the Illinois legislature to make sure we’re ready for the next attack.
3/ I’ll also lead the fight to ensure that those recommendations are enacted, and I’ll support the bipartisan efforts to fund the protection of our voting systems. We need to treat this like a serious attack by a foreign adversary because that’s exactly what it was. /end
