In his latest diatribe against Rep Ilhan Omar, President Donald Trump said she should be removed from the United States as she entered the country by marrying her brother. “Somalia, where you have a Congressman goes around telling everybody about our Constitution, yet she supposedly came into our country by marrying her brother,” Trump said while speaking to reporters on Air Force One. “Well, if that’s true, she shouldn’t be a Congressman, and we should throw her the hell out of our country.”Trump has cracked down on Somalis in Minnesota, alleging massive fraud in the Democratic-ruled state. He announced on his social media that he is ending the Temporary Protected Status for Somalis in Minnesota. As Omar and other Democrats defended the Somali community, Ilhan Omar came under attack and reports suggest that she could be deported after the government revokes her citizenship.

Could Ilhan Omar be deported?

Ilhan Omar came to the US in 1995 and became a naturalized US citizen. But rumors are that Ilhan entered the US as a fraudulent member of the ‘Omar’ family, which was not her family. “The Omar family is a second, unrelated family which was being granted asylum by the United States. The Omars allowed Ilhan, her genetic sister Sahra, and her genetic father Nur Said to use false names to apply for asylum as members of the Omar family,” a blog that first brought the issue to light said. “Ilhan’s genetic family split up at this time. The above three received asylum in the United States, while Ilhan’s three other siblings — using their real names — managed to get asylum in the United Kingdom. Ilhan Abdullahi Omar’s name, before applying for asylum, was Ilhan Nur Said Elmi,” it said. Omar’s “three siblings who” received asylum in the United Kingdom were Ahmed Nur Said Elmi, Mohamed Nur Said Elmi, and Leila Nur Said Elmi. Omar and Ahmed Nur Said Elmi went on to get married in 2009 and “did not divorce until 2017.”Ilhan Omar dismissed the rumors as untrue. As a naturalized citizen, Ilhan can not be deported unless she is denaturalized and that can happen if the government proves in court that she willfully lied or hid material facts during the naturalization process and the lie was essential to obtain citizenship. Ilhan Omar earlier reacted to buzz of her deportation and said it would not be a big deal for her as she can live anywhere in the world.
