Trump Says DOJ And Congress Are 'Looking At' Rep. Ilhan Omar For Her Alleged Enrichment While In Office: 'Time Will Tell All'

President Donald Trump said on Monday that "DOJ and Congress are looking at 'Congresswoman' Ilhan Omar" for her alleged enrichment while in office.

In a social media publication, Trump said Omar "left Somalia with NOTHING, and is now reportedly worth more than 44 Million Dollars."

A recent report from Yahoo Finance noted that other publications claimed that Omar's net worth had surged to as much as $30 million after disclosing a negative net worth when elected to Congress in 2019.

The 2025 document, the report added, listed two large assets tied to her husband, Tim Mynett, which could have amounted to a figure between $6 million and $30 million.

Omar has reacted to the claims, recently responding to a social media publication saying that "the value range listed for the assets reflects the full cost assessment of the businesses, in which my husband is one of several partners and does not reflect his individual share." "Keep wishing millions into existence so I could pay off these student loans," she added.

Trump has repeatedly targeted Omar throughout the years, most recently after claims of widespread fraud related to the Somali community in Minnesota, of which she is part.

She told The Guardian in mid December that the attacks have directly fueled threats against her life, arguing that his rhetoric follows a familiar pattern of what she described as "boilerplate xenophobia" that escalates real-world danger.

Omar said Trump's remarks at a rally in Pennsylvania—where he mocked her hijab, repeated a false claim that she married her brother, and told supporters she should be expelled from the country—were "vile" and reflected "a really unhealthy and creepy obsession."

Omar told The Guardian that there is "a clear correlation" between Trump's rhetoric and the level of threats she receives. "When you have the president using dehumanizing language every single day, we know that message gets to the worst humans possible in this country and that they then take action," she said.

"We've had people incarcerated for threatening to kill me. We have people that are being prosecuted right now for threatening to kill me and so it is something that does stay in the back of our minds," Omar added.

Omar, who came to the United States as a refugee from Somalia and became a citizen at 17, said Trump's rhetoric also puts Somali communities at risk amid stepped-up immigration enforcement. "I worry about those people finding someone who looks like me... and thinking it is me and harming them," she told the outlet.
