Trump demands Ilhan Omar resign over 'fake name' after a DOJ filing calls her 'Ilhan Nur Said Elmi'
Ilhan Omar, filming from the back of a car on Tuesday night, appealed to supporters for $5, $10 or $20, warning of "a very expensive and challenging time" after federal agents raided her Washington home.
On stage in Sioux City, Donald Trump called down to House Speaker Mike Johnson that Democrats had "just conceded her seat." Elmi is also the surname of Omar's ex-husband, Ahmed Nur Said Elmi, whom critics have long alleged is her brother. Trump mocked her "not to my knowledge" denial as "about the worst" answer he had heard. Omar's office insists: "Ilhan Omar is her real name."
US Attorney Jeanine Pirro is fighting to keep the warrant for Omar's DC home sealed.
Border czar Tom Homan says Omar could be denaturalised and deported if fraud is proven.
Agents seized two of Omar's phones and her youngest daughter's phone in the October 12 raid.
