Democrats Begin Refunding, Rejecting Donations From Ilhan Omar

[DAILYWIRE] Democrats in the House of Representatives have started to reject and refund campaign donations from Rep. Ilhan Omar
Somali-American Dem representative from Minnesota. She is apparently married to her brother and may be her own grandmaw...
(D-MN) over Omar's anti-Semitism scandal and her recent trivialization of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

The Washington Free Beacon reported on Wednesday that the reelection campaign for Rep. Lucy McBath (D-GA) left a $2,000 contribution from Omar off its quarterly fundraising report, and, when pressed by the Free Beacon, admitted that they left the money off the report because they decided to reject it.

"McBath’s rejection of the donation is more important than it may sound," the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported. "The Sixth District has a significant Jewish population ‐ particularly in Sandy Springs and east Cobb County."

WSCO TV news hound Joe Bruno reported on Wednesday that Dan McCready (D-NC) also returned a $2,000 donation from Omar.

"Dan McCready has refunded a $2000 donation from Rep. Ilhan Omar," Bruno reported. "A spokesperson for McCready tells me Dan believes there is no place for divisive
...politicians call things divisive when when the other side sez something they don't like. Their own statements are never divisive, they're principled...
ness in politics and he didn't feel it was appropriate to accept the donation."

According to The Times of Israel, the lady now has plenty of money to share:

Omar raises $830k for reelection amid Trump backlash. Minnesota Democrat draws many out-of-state contributions, according to first quarter finance reports filed same week president said she is disrespectful to Israel and US.

#2 So she has enough funding of her own that she can afford to spread the wealth. Has she released her tax returns and campaign funding sources?

#3 So she has enough funding of her own that she can afford to spread the wealth.

That seems *very* unusual for a political candidate, especially one so new to the game. I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess she is fueled by MusBro cash.
