Both complaints against the anti-Semitic Omar were filed last year by Republican Minnesota state lawmaker Rep. Steve Drazkowski. He claims Omar spent thousands of dollars on a divorce attorney and personal travel expenses. If this is true, it is likely that nothing will happen and Omar will continue hating Jews and being supported by her fellow Democrats.
“In referring Omar to the Minnesota Campaign Finance Board, Drazkowski alleged that Omar improperly spent close to $6,000 in campaign funds for personal use, including payments to her divorce attorney and for travel to Boston and Estonia,” says the report.
Rosen notes that Drazkowski’s filings follow “an earlier episode in which Omar repaid $2,500 for honoraria she received for speeches at colleges that receive state funding, a violation of ethics rules for Minnesota lawmakers.”
“I had observed a long pattern,” said Drazkowski. “Representative Omar hasn’t followed the law. She’s repeatedly trampled on the laws of the state in a variety of areas, and gotten by with it.”

But is it possible she was following sharia law?
The Republican lawmaker maintained that Omar has been allowed to skate in the face of her controversial actions by strategically using her identity as a shield. Her intersectional 'creds' as a Muslim, and a woman of color gives her victimhood standings that allow her to say anything she wants with impunity.
“There’s a political fear that people have of being called a name, being called a bigot, being called racist, being called Islamophobic,” he said, leaving out sexist and homophobe.
When Omar was questioned about the probe into the alleged finance violations on Thursday, she refused to respond and kept walking and walking. Earlier this year, the Democrat denied the alleged indiscretions, though the complaints were still unconfirmed to the public at the time.
“The Omar Committee’s 2017 year-end report shows several non-campaign disbursements for out-of-state travel for Rep. Omar to attend various events,” reads a notification allegedly from the finance board posted on Drazkowski’s website.
“The information on the committee’s 2017 year-end report does not indicate how attendance at these events would have helped Rep. Omar in the performance of her legislative duties,” another notification says.
The results of the investigations are expected to soon be released, Sinclair reports, but nothing will come of it, one can assume based on past non-outcomes.
Despite her many controversies, Omar has become a key figure for the Democrat Party because of her hatred for Trump, America, Jews and Israel.
The Muslim Democrat has found herself under fire on more than one occasion for past and present comments she’s made about Jews and Israel. In March, for example, Omar used the old trope that Jewish Americans have “dual loyalty” even after she was criticized for past comments that were clearly anti-Semitic.
“Lawmakers must be able to debate w/o prejudice or bigotry. I am saddened that Rep. Omar continues to mischaracterize support for Israel. I urge her to retract this statement and engage in further dialogue with the Jewish community on why these comments are so hurtful,” said Rep. Nita Lowey (D-NY), who is Jewish.
“Our democracy is built on debate, Congresswoman!” Omar responded on Twitter. “I should not be expected to have allegiance/pledge support to a foreign country in order to serve my country in Congress or serve on committee. The people of the 5th elected me to serve their interest. I am sure we agree on that!”

Nobody pledges their allegiance to Israel, as the anti-Semite implied. Supporting an ally, in fact the only ally in the Middle East that isn't calling for global sharia and is a beacon of civilization in the mire of surrounding nations, is not pledging allegiance to the country, but pledging support of that ally. To say otherwise is to again use that anti-Semitic trope that has existed for decades.
Hopefully Omar will receive whatever justice is determined by the probe, but don't hold your breath.
