Ilhan Omar, D-MN, once told me to “fu** off”; now she is under intense criminal investigation.
One morning on Capitol Hill, I spotted Omar leaving the House chamber after a vote and got in position to ask her a question. She was walking with some of her staffers.
At the time, a man living in Maryland was making the headlines. His name is Kilmar Abrego Garcia.
Garcia was deported to El Salvador by President Trump in mid 2025, alleging that he is not a legal U.S. citizen and that he has ties to the violent MS-13 gang.
While in El Salvador, Garcia was visited by Senator Chris Van Hollen, D-MD, as Van Hollen promised to get him back to Maryland. This situation creates a domino effect that could cause other Democrats to make similar trips.
With members of Congress going on taxpayer-funded trips abroad instead of doing their jobs here in America, I decided to ask Omar if she thought this was a good idea.
Omar immediately said, “I think you should fuck off.”
Confused and genuinely shocked, I followed up by asking, “I’m sorry, what, Congresswoman?”
Rep. @Ilhan once told me to “fuck off” after I asked her if she supports more of her Democratic colleagues should travel to El Salvador on behalf of Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

Omar once again said, “You should fuck off,” with no hesitation.
Still confused over the fact that a lawmaker would say that to me or anyone, for that matter, I asked: “Who should?” Omar quickly responded with “you.”
As she started crossing the street, I asked: “Why me?”
One of her staffers then waved a business card in front of my camera lens and said “We’re not taking anymore questions right now, but here you go.” I let them all go after that.
This was Omar’s response later that day, which was such a class act:
Fast forward to today, Ilhan Omar is now being investigated for citizenship status, alleged immigration fraud, and alleged financial misconduct.
Federal agents raided Omar’s DC home a few weeks ago as the criminal probe against her intensifies.
Omar even released a video begging for campaign donations and even appeared to be on the verge of tears. Is she afraid that she will be found guilty in this criminal investigation?
Omar is one of the most rude and arrogant members in Congress, now all her past actions seem to catching up to her in real time.

Karma is real, and Members of Congress who feel emboldened to disrespect Members of the American public instead of just saying they don’t feel like answering any questions need to be humbled.
