Ilhan Omar funneled another $150K to alleged lover's consulting group
[NY Post] Rep. Ilhan Omar paid another $150,000 to Tim Mynett's political consulting group in the three months after The Post first revealed allegations the pair were romantically involved, records show.

The 37-year-old Minnesota congresswoman's campaign has funneled $146,712.63 to Mynett's E Street Group since The Post in August reported allegations she was having an affair with her paid consultant, records show.

The latest payments to Mynett's group were for digital advertising, fundraising consulting and video production.

When news of the alleged affair broke, Omar had already paid $223,000 through her campaign since 2018 for fundraising consulting, internet advertising, digital communications, and travel expenses to the E Street Group ‐ taking the latest total to $370,000.

But the federal agency charged with probing the campaign finance complaint against Omar is powerless to act because it doesn't have enough commissioners on the bench to investigate.

#1 My but these woke congressgirls are easy with official funds. First Batshita gets her campaign to pay her rent 'n' cheetos bill. Now the Somali Seductress pays liver boy's rent with official dough.

Squad Pro Se. And more fer me!

Lex, a 'liver boy' is a young man some rich fucks will acquire from traffickers, for when they need a transplant in case of cirrhosis.

#5 Actually only bold crimes.
Small stuff while the other representatives steal millions and maybe billions with better crafted looting schemes.

#9 It's almost axiomatic that whatever these shitheads accuse Trump and his retinue of doing is precisely what they themselves have done.

"Believed himself to be above the law" - check.
"Abused his office" - check.
"Worked with a foreign government to allow them to intervene in an election" - check.
"Tampered with witnesses" - check [cf Blowsey Ford and the Yale women who were suborned to lie about Kavanaugh].
etc
etc

#10 "Is a sexist debauch" - check.

#11 "Committing perjury" - check.

"Conspiring with Russian leaders to undermine US interests" - check [cf. Zero's ludicrously incompetent performance with then-Pres. Medvedev of Russia in March 2012, captured nicely on a hot mic]
