Where do you get all this stuff ? Why she's not already jailed considering if she's really guilty ?
Why Trump does not go back in Ireland or Germany ? Oh wait lol no, keep him.
I know you're ignorant of US policy and immigration in particular, but Ilhan's story is actually quite common. As the article lays out, as much as 87% of DNA testing of Somali immigrants found them to be using fraudulent identities
America barely enforces immigration law and fraud is absolutely rampant and unchecked. Millions of illegal immigrants live freely in the states and millions more got legal status by fraud.
That's a huge part of the reason Donald Trump was elected.

Agreed. Calling Pelsoi, of all people, racist, is bad enough - but their actual policies are even worse.
Omar has repeatedly called for the abolishment of ICE, for a defunding of DHS, once petitioned a judge to issue more lenient sentences for ISIS supporters [1], publicly supports the BDS movement, has repeatedly spouted anti-semitism for which even her own caucus had to rebuke her, and so and on on.
Omar exemplifies pretty much every "unsubstantiated and fearmongering" trope about muslim immigrants that the right has ever circulated.
