NEW Ilhan Omar update:

I've got @IlhanMN's divorce petition here. It's noteworthy not due to its contents, but due to its apparently hasty filing.

Ilhan Omar, per my sources, had been so intent on stopping her husband from filing for divorce most of this year that she ... (1/x)
@IlhanMN ... reportedly had asked Minneapolis City Councilwoman Alondra Cano to fire him from his aide position. @IlhanMN's motivation was apparently to keep Hirsi reliant upon her for income: pjmedia.com/davidsteinberg…

But on Friday ... (2/x)
@IlhanMN ... Ilhan Omar apparently decided that a divorce from Hirsi needed to happen immediately -- so much so that she couldn't wait a few days to return from her overseas trip.

She filed the divorce petition from ... Ouagadougou! (3/x)
@IlhanMN You can assume something occurred that spurred @IlhanMN's change of plans.

Also noteworthy from her petition: More apparent perjury.

"Wife has not been known by other names." As I have published, she was reportedly "Ilhan Nur Said Elmi" prior to being brought to the US. (4/4)

As I’ve stated, the public concerns on this aspect of the @IlhanMN saga are:

1. Possibly 6 figure$ of fraudulent campaign payments; and

2. How Ilhan’s Somali voter base reacts to the new overwhelming evidence.

Her base had stuck with her ... (1/x)

dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7…
... and generally dismissed her affair as “fake news,” because of the solemnity with which Somalis tend to treat Islamic marriage vows. Per my local sources, the community was waiting for proof due to the seriousness of the sin.

Today, I’ve been checking in ... (2/x)
... with my MN sources and monitoring local Somali social media influencers to see if opinion has shifted.

The jury is still out.

I’m waiting to hear from my translators regarding social media, because Google Translate Somali/English is useless, though hysterical. (3/3)

I dug into this in 2016 after reading your @DailyCaller article, @KerryPicket.

Can confirm that some elected @gop looked into releasing it then.

But the files were reportedly a “mess,” and the logistics of redacting info to protect possible Clinton victims ... (1/x)
... made it a time- and resource-heavy undertaking.

Would be very interested to see if current @GOP-controlled Senate Judiciary Committee is interested in pursuing this now.

Or even a @TulsiGabbard, or other Dems who conflict with @HillaryClinton.

Plenty of women... (2/x)
... like Juanita Broaddrick (@atensnut) and Kathleen Willey, deserve the closure.

Especially since @JoeBiden and *every single senator* refused to even enter the evidence room to view the unreleased evidence before the Senate trial. (3/3)

Frankly, @KingJames is right.

Hong Kong freedom fighters and Uighurs slaughtered for their organs need to understand how rough it is to ball for the Lakers.
@KingJames Find me one -- just one -- Chinese political prisoner who has suffered through a season with J.R. Smith.

Hong Kong *needs to understand.*
@KingJames Thirteen games.

In 2015, @KingJames missed *THIRTEEN GAMES* with a moderate groin pull.

Let he who has suffered a month's paid vacation with daily massage therapy cast the first stone, I say. #FreeLeBron

#Khashoggi Case Thread: I am going to ‘pin’ this post to use it as an ‘Info Thread’ on the #Khashoggi Case. I am in #Turkey. I’ve been following the case closely and with access to sources & experts here. This is a very ‘sensitive’ criminal case due to ‘Diplomatic Booby Traps’!!!
The Evidence Obtained Outside Cameras will not show any evidence of ‘tempering’ but other than license plates of dozens of diplomatic cars (Many with tinted windows-large trunks) with related time stamp, drivers Info, model/year: Nothing.
#Turkish Intel-Investigative Bodies also have the list of all Diplomatic & Private Saudi & “other significant’ Planes in #Turkey for the period of ‘interest.’ Many of the Target airports have their own security cameras & related evidence.
