CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY OCTOBER 14, 2026
FEDERAL AGENTS RAIDED THE WASHINGTON, D.C. HOME OF CONGRESSWOMAN ILHAN OMAR ON MONDAY. THE DEMOCRAT FROM SOMALIA IS PART OF A RADICAL LEFT-WING GROUP THAT MAKES FALSE CHARGES AGAINST ISRAEL AND THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION FOR SUPPORTING THE JEWISH STATE. HOMELAND SECURITY SAYS THE RAID IS CONNECTED TO WHAT THEY CALL POSSIBLE IMMIGRATION FRAUD.
A JUDGE SIGNED OFF ON THE RAID, WHICH MEANS THERE IS PROBABLE CAUSE OMAR BROKE THE LAW. OMAR CRITICIZED THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION FOR CONDUCTING THE RAID SO CLOSE TO THE NOVEMBER ELECTION.
THERE HAVE BEEN QUESTIONS ABOUT OMAR’S FAMILY AND HOW THEY MANAGED TO IMMIGRATE TO AMERICA FROM SOMALIA. SOME HAVE ACCUSED HER OF MARRYING HER BROTHER TO GAIN CITIZENSHIP AND THEN DIVORCING HIM, WHICH SHE DENIES. THERE HAVE BEEN OTHER ACCUSATIONS RELATED TO IMMIGRATION FRAUD.
PRESIDENT TRUMP, NEVER ONE TO SHY AWAY FROM EXPRESSING HIS PERSONAL OPINIONS, SAID OF OMAR:
“I’VE ALWAYS FOUND HER TO BE TOTALLY CROOKED.”
WHATEVER HAPPENS, OMAR IS ALMOST CERTAIN TO BE RE-ELECTED AS SHE IS PART OF A LARGE SOMALI COMMUNITY IN MINNESOTA. INFILTRATION BY RADICAL MUSLIMS IS ANOTHER ISSUE THAT MUST BE ADDRESSED. I’M CAL THOMAS.
