00:00Tom Homan claims Congresswoman is being investigated.
00:04Border czar Tom Homan said he is reviewing the immigration records of Democratic Representative Ilhan Omar
00:09amid long-standing, unproven claims that she allegedly married her brother to help him stay in the U.S.
00:15The allegations, which date back to her early political career, have never resulted in formal charges.
00:22Renewed attention follows President Donald Trump raising the issue, calling it immigration fraud,
00:26and questioning why it hasn't been fully investigated.
00:30During a Newsmax interview, host Eric Schmidt asked Homan if an investigation is underway,
00:35noting the case remains unresolved, despite being a five-year-old story.
00:41Homan said he recently spoke with a Homeland Security fraud investigator,
00:45who concluded that immigration fraud likely occurred in Omar's case.
00:49He noted the statute of limitations became an issue over the past four years,
00:53and questioned who was in charge when the matter was first raised.
00:56Homan didn't confirm an active investigation, but said Omar's files are being pulled for review.
01:01He cited a trusted HSI fraud investigator who confirmed the file had been reviewed,
01:07and said he plans to continue pursuing the matter this week to see where the review leads.
01:12The allegations that Omar married her brother to aid immigration were first detailed by the Daily Mail in March 2020,
01:19presenting documents raising questions, but leading to no legal action.
01:24Omar has denied the claims and faces no charges.
01:27She did not address the topic during her recent CBS Face the Nation appearance.
01:31Omar, in Congress since 2019, has long been controversial for her stances on immigration, foreign policy, and law enforcement.
01:41Homan's review of her immigration records aligns with the Trump administration's focus on border security and visa fraud.
01:47No charges have been filed, and Omar has not publicly responded.
01:51In the description.
01:59This trial and error kept reading.
02:00By the way.
