Border Czar Tom Homan has confirmed what millions of Americans have long suspected: the federal government is now actively investigating Rep. Ilhan Omar for alleged immigration fraud — a scandal that has haunted her for years and one that the media, Democrats, and the Biden administration desperately tried to bury.
Appearing on *Rob Schmitt Tonight* on Newsmax, Homan addressed not only the staggering fraud crisis tied to Minnesota’s Somali migrant community, but also the explosive Daily Mail report — revived last week by President Trump — alleging that Omar married her own brother to commit immigration fraud.
Schmitt began by playing a clip of Trump bluntly summarizing the controversy:
“They have a representative, Ilhan Omar, who they say married her brother. It’s a fraud.”
The claim has never been convincingly refuted, despite Omar’s repeated evasions and a media establishment that has spent years running interference for her. Now, under the Trump administration, it appears the truth may finally be coming out.
Pressed by Schmitt on whether Omar’s case was being reviewed, Homan dropped a political bombshell. Not only has the file been reopened — a top DHS fraud investigator has already reviewed it.
According to Homan:
“I just got advised by [a] fraud investigator… No, there was immigration fraud involved… He reviewed the file and said, ‘There’s no doubt.’”
This is not speculation. This is not rumor. This is a direct statement from one of the most respected investigators in Homeland Security Investigations.
Homan reiterated that he is “running it down this week,” adding further momentum to an issue that the Biden DOJ ignored and that Democrats hoped would simply disappear.
For the first time since these allegations surfaced in 2020, the federal government is finally treating them as the criminal matter they may very well be.
Ilhan Omar’s accusations are not unfolding in a vacuum. They are part of a much bigger, much darker picture.
Schmitt cited comments from DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, who said nearly **50% of visas** issued within Minnesota’s Somali migrant community were fraudulent — a number so staggering it almost defies belief.
If accurate, this would mean that **half** of Somali refugees in Minnesota are in the country illegally, whether through identity fraud, sham family relationships, falsified documents, or other illegal means.
Schmitt asked the obvious question:
*“Are we going to see people stripped of their visas? Deported?”*
Homan didn’t hesitate.
“Absolutely… those days are over. Thank God President Trump’s in the White House.”
Homan made it clear that this will not be a token review. It will be a system-wide scrub of the Somali migrant population, particularly those who slipped through the Biden administration’s “weak” vetting system.
His words were unmistakable:
“We’re going the whole gamut.”
Criminals. Visa violators. National security threats. Fraud beneficiaries. Those who lied their way into the country.
They’re all on the table.
Under Biden, DHS operated as an open-borders political arm. Fraud allegations were ignored, detainers were dismissed, and deportations plummeted. Even credible claims of security risks were brushed aside to protect fragile Democratic voting blocs.
But with Trump back in the White House, Homan made it clear: the era of “catch-and-release” is over.
Fraud will be prosecuted.
Illegally obtained citizenship will be scrutinized.
Deportations are resuming — rapidly.
And for the first time in years, DHS appears to be led by people who view American citizenship as a privilege, not a political bargaining chip.
If investigators determine that Omar committed immigration fraud — particularly if she knowingly entered into a sham marriage — the potential consequences are severe:
* Revocation of naturalization
* Loss of U.S. citizenship
* Deportation
* Criminal prosecution
Homan’s tone suggested the evidence is not only compelling — it may be overwhelming.
And this time, there is no Biden DOJ to shield her.
The Trump administration is doing what the Biden administration refused to do: enforce the law. Tom Homan’s confirmation that Rep. Ilhan Omar is under renewed investigation marks a seismic shift in the government’s approach to immigration fraud — especially in Minnesota’s Somali migrant community, where more than a billion dollars in welfare fraud has already been uncovered.
For Omar and others who built careers on identity politics rather than integrity, the days of political immunity may finally be coming to an end.
America is getting its immigration system back — and the fraudsters are running out of time.
