‘Where Did Ilhan Omar Get All That Darn Money From?’: Rob Finnerty [WATCH]

Rob Finnerty raised concerns about Rep. Ilhan Omar’s financial history during a Newsmax segment, focusing on the sharp increase in her reported net worth between 2018 and 2024.

Finnerty outlined Omar’s financial timeline and questioned how her assets grew from tens of thousands of dollars to more than $30 million in a few years.

According to Finnerty, Omar’s financial disclosures showed a net worth of about $65,000 when she first ran for Congress in 2018.

During his segment, he said she was married at the time to Ahmed Nur Said Elmi and noted that her assets remained modest through 2020.

Finnerty stated that after divorcing and remarrying Ahmed Hirsi, “her net worth was still right around $65,000.”

Finnerty recounted Omar’s subsequent marriages and raised questions about the circumstances surrounding them.

He referenced long-standing allegations about her past immigration history while emphasizing that they have not resulted in legal action.

During the segment, Finnerty said, “We don’t know for sure, because Ilhan Omar likely married her brother at one point to get him into this country illegally when she came here from Somalia, which, by the way, is a federal crime, and she’s serving in Congress, and nobody talks about this.”

He then turned to developments from 2021 through 2024.

By that period, Omar had married Tim Mynett, a political consultant whose firm previously worked with her campaign.

Finnerty contrasted Mynett’s financial profile with Omar’s current reported assets.

“So by 2024 Ilhan is married to a new person, a white guy named Tim. There’s Tim, Tim Minette, and Tim is not a rich man, but now he is. Tim’s rich now, because somehow, over the course of the last three years, Ilhan Omar’s net worth has skyrocketed to over $30 million and counting,” Finnerty said.

He emphasized the dramatic pace of the increase.

“Meaning she went from having right around $65,000 to $30 million in three years. Think about that. Powerball drawing is tonight. Wouldn’t that be wonderful? Ilhan Omar did not win the lottery. Bernie Madoff was cheating, and he still wasn’t doing that well. That is a 46,000% increase in less than three years.”

Finnerty questioned whether such an increase could reasonably be attributed to investment success or ordinary financial activity, referencing the period of the Biden-Harris administration.

“Now. How do you suppose that happened? Do you really expect us all to believe that she just played the stock market like she’s got a great investor and they just got kind of lucky over the course of the Biden presidency.”

He concluded by asking why more officials and media outlets have not examined Omar’s financial disclosures.

“So once again, where did Ilhan Omar get all that money? And why is she trying to make Americans feel bad for Somalian criminals.”

Finnerty said he believes the questions merit further review and argued that the scope of Omar’s financial growth demands greater transparency from the Minnesota lawmaker.
