					<description><![CDATA[I think Representative Omar is probably the most odious member of Congress. What troubles me is the possibility she could be removed for office for immigration fraud by her father. 

As opposed to all the other reasons she is repellant. Mainly her views and attitudes towards this nation and its shared values.

It&#039;s like indicting Capone for mail fraud.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[mkent - I wish neo had a like button for comments. 

And, speaking of lighting one&#039;s hair on fire, I said that the administration had better have all of its i&#039;s dotted and t&#039;s crossed.  That&#039;s lighting my hair on fire? 

I also expressed concern that this matter is going to end up like almost all of Trump&#039;s other lawfare &quot;adventures,&quot; where the charges are weak and quickly dismissed and the target claims to have been &quot;exonerated&quot; and becomes an even bigger &quot;resistance&quot; hero. Cry flaming follicular matter all you like, but that has happened repeatedly in the past two years.  It&#039;s a legitimate worry.

A larger philosophical point - I don&#039;t think that MAGA and Trumpers understand leftist lawfare. However thuggish their behavior, leftists sincerely believe that they are on the side of right, we are on the side of evil, and that it is not abusive to use the justice system to punish bad people. 

People who truly believe that they are correctly using the justice system to &quot;get the bad guys&quot; and &quot;make the world a better place&quot; are not going to be deterred by a response in kind. To the leftist, Trump&#039;s clumsy, ineffective lawfare is simply more proof of their own biased worldview. 

The solution to leftist lawfare is to remove the ideologues from power by convincing a majority of the electorate that lawfare is abusive and harms all of us, even if it is to get the &quot;bad&quot; people.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Bill Shipley just put up a long post on the Omar raid and her immigration situation on his Shipwreckedcrew&#039;s Port-O-Call Substack.  I think unfortunately it&#039;s behind his paywall but I&#039;ll try to give a TL;DR summary.

https://shipwreckedcrew.substack.com/p/yes-minn-rep-ilhan-omar-can-be-denaturalized

As you can sorta tell from the URL it is Shipley&#039;s opinion that Omar does face naturalization, though maybe not criminal, jeopardy regardless of her age at the time she immigrated.  In fact, because she was a minor she might be in more trouble than if she had been an adult.  If she was a minor her ability to apply for naturalization was based on the acceptance for immigration and naturalization of her &quot;father&quot; (I note there are some questions regarding that, as well) who was, at least according to some sources, a fairly high ranking officer in the Somali National Army during the Marxist dictatorship of Mohammed Said Barre, and is said to have participated in human rights violations and other atrocities during SNA suppression of unrest involving the Isaaq tribe located in the area of Somalia that calls itself “Somaliland.”  (He notes that the recent diplomatic recognition of an independent nation of Somaliland by Israel might be the source of additional information about the Omar family.)  US immigration law bars the acceptance for refugee status of anyone affiliated with a Marxist or totalitarian party, and the regime of Barre in Somalia was an self-proclaimed Marxist dictatorship.  It appears that Omar&#039;s father described himself as an &#039;educator&#039; on his immigration and refugee applications, a characterization continued by Omar in her own writing, without disclosing his association with the Somali National Army and Barre&#039;s government.  That would make his application for naturalization invalid under US law therefore making her subsequent application invalid as well.  There is a case directly on point for Omar&#039;s father of a former Nazi concentration camp guard who passed himself off as a laborer, was admitted to the US under the Displaced Persons provisions after WWII, and was eventually deported after the USSC ruled there was no statute of limitations on revoking immigration or naturalization status if facts which would have caused a rejection of the application were discovered even long after the fact.  It is not quite on point for Omar but it certainly raises the possibility her naturalization could be revoked because her entry into the US was the result of fraud, even if she wasn&#039;t the one committing the fraud.

The only question Shipley has is the basis for the search warrant since denaturalization is a civil action, not a criminal one, and search warrants are part of a criminal investigation.  He speculated there might be information regarding the family&#039;s immigration process as detailed in Omar&#039;s writings, and an investigation could have the purpose of determining if there was on-going fraud to conceal her father&#039;s history.  I would also think there could be a criminal investigation into Omar&#039;s connection with various Somali fraud rings in the Twin Cities so the search warrant might have nothing to do with the immigration case, or the search might have had multiple purposes.]]></description>
