In my many years of observing politicians I’ve seen some pretty egregious liars, but this week a new champion stepped into the ring. And as it happens, she was the subject of my last column this past Monday: Ilhan Omar.
Little Miss Mogadishu had one hell of a lousy week. As the investigations against her ramped up, she disappeared temporarily. The warrant used to search her house revealed that she has apparently been using an alias this whole time, possibly because her alleged real name is Ilhan Nur Said Elmi.
Which you may recognize as being vaguely similar to the name of the dude she allegedly married, who is allegedly her brother: Ahmed Nur Said Elmi.
If by “vaguely similar” you mean “absolutely identical.” And a little comical, in a “Who’s on First” kind of way. Because it’s bound to cause a little confusion when your married name was also your maiden name, right?
I mean, I’m no incest-ologist, but…
Also, when some of her deleted social media posts were recovered, they showed that despite her claiming that she didn’t know a single member of his family, she appeared in pictures with him and his family. Which, I guess, were also her family? Yikes.
When she re-appeared in an effort to put out the incest-y, illegal immigration-y media firestorm, it was on MSNOW with Chris Hayes, who looks like Rachel Maddow’s less masculine brother. And it was in that interview that Ilhan made her case for being a first-ballot inductee into the Liars Hall of Fame.
Hayes first lobbed her a few softballs about the absurd rumors that she had married her brother, which she sweated through and laughed at, before blaming the usual suspects: an unnamed Somali blog, which she doesn’t think still exists, where an unnamed “somebody” vaguely claimed that Ahmed 2 “had to have been her brother, or something,” before it was picked up by “right-wing conspiracy theorists.”
Unexpectedly!
For the record, the brother-marrying charge was first made by a Democrat primary opponent of hers.
So if you’ve been keeping score at home on a big white board full of her lies… her name isn’t really her name, her age isn’t really her age, her family aren’t refugee victims but genocide perpetrators, and her Democrat opponent isn’t a right-wing conspiracy theorist.
Oh, and she didn’t NOT marry her brother.
Where was I? Oh yeah, smiling Chrissie Hayes. Ilhan closed out her response to his friendly questions by claiming that the idea that she married her brother was “insane,” and that she did not know any of the unnamed people who supposedly made such a ridiculous claim.
She was almost home free, safe in the hands of her low-T hack of a biased MSM “journalist,” until he tossed what he must have thought would be one last softball, laughingly saying, “So you’re not related to him at all…there’s not some weird kernel of truth that—”
To which she replied, and I am not making this up, “Not to my knowledge.”
Good lord! How could she more clearly confess that she definitely married her brother without saying the words, “I definitely married my brother?” If someone asked her if she’d killed JFK, or had a torrid love affair with Donald Trump, or converted to Christianity, would she ever have responded, “Not to my knowledge?!”
This is going to be one fun mess of a story to follow in the coming months.
Speaking of disturbing stories that are going to have happy endings, I heard this week that jihadi a-hole Nidal Hasan is going to die by firing squad on December third for his traitorous 2009 murder of 13 American soldiers and injuring of 32 others at Fort Hood, Tx. His victims were his fellow soldiers, who were unarmed when he attacked them, motivated by his adherence to the Religion of Peace™.
When I saw the headline, “Hasan to be executed on December 3rd,” I first thought the story was about Hasan Piker, the evil, America-hating nepo-baby who says that we deserved 9/11, and fantasizes about American capitalists being murdered in the streets. But this other Hasan needs killing too, so I guess all’s well that ends ballistically.
(For any lefties who have mistakenly stumbled across this column and underwent the mandatory humor-ectomy when they joined the Party, that was a joke. Because I would never actually celebrate the killing of people for disagreeing with my politics… unlike your political co-religionists who have made the Kirk-aversary a holiday on their calendars, and are praying for some thug to succeed where the previous three would-be Trump murderers failed.)
By American standards, Hasan’s execution only 17 years after his execution-worthy crime is exceptionally speedy. And I suppose we can be grateful that he’s being put down in Texas instead of Tennessee, where a team of Keystone Kops executioners managed to not kill a murderess in two attempts.
Fortunately, the firing squad is not broken, and the riflemen will be motivated, seeing as Hasan killed their fellow soldiers. And if they by chance should miss his heart and shoot him in the abdomen and groin instead, no one at Fort Hood is going to put a rush on an ambulance in an attempt to try to patch him up and get him well enough to shoot again.
Though now that I think about it…
As usual, the great Babylon Bee had the perfect take on the execution: they urged any leftists who might be upset by the killing of Hasan to just imagine that he’s a Healthcare CEO, so they can feel as good about his just punishment as other Americans will.
Since we’re on the topic of evil people giving Islam a bad name, let’s go over to Gaza, where there are tons of those folks.
You may remember that when the brave, women-and-children-murdering terrorists of Hamas struck on October 7th, one of their victims was Shani Louk, a 22-year-old German-Israeli hippie chick and peacenik who had been dancing at the Nova Music Festival. She became famous in death, because her abused and partially clothed body was filmed as terrorists drove it through the streets of Gaza, where the salt-of-the-earth Gazans jeered, slapped and spat on her.
In the intervening three years, the IDF has been diligently hunting down and eliminating the five scumbags who had paraded Shani’s body in the back of a Jeep. And on Monday, they located the last of them, an ugly, micro-phallused charmer named Tamer Muhammad (suprise!) Ibrahim al-Sabbagh.
Annnnnddddd…the IDF violently disassembled him with a precision air strike which also took out a senior Hamas officer named Akram Yassin.
Rumors that Sabbagh and Yassin were forcing themselves upon two goats who had been told they were going on a double date at the time of their transition to hell have not been confirmed. But c’mon.
Anyway, thoughts and prayers…to the families of the goats.
In related news, it looks like the “Palestinians” have finally been given their own country. Unfortunately, that country is France.
Great job with the open borders, Macron! As Jerry Seinfeld said, “Good luck with all that.”
Finally, Elon Musk demonstrated a flying car this week. I thought that it must have been AI, but no, it was real. While reading about it, I came across an article by Roger Kimble in American Greatness that pointed out that, “The response to this extraordinary feat divided neatly along ideological lines. The left hated it; the right loved it.”
A commentator on X summed it up thusly: “Elon Musk’s companies built a sports car that does what science fiction promised for a century. The same man lands rockets on barges and builds the machines that carry our astronauts. That is what one free mind, and the thousands of minds he employs, can produce.
Bernie Sanders says billionaires should not exist. He looks at the man who makes cars fly and concludes the problem to solve is that such men keep too much of what they create. He has spent five decades in government producing nothing, yet he claims the moral authority to dispose of the men who produce everything.”
Kimble quotes the anonymous commentator’s conclusion. “A flying car is what men do when they are free. A wealth tax is what politicians do to the men who built it. One of them needs the other to survive, and it isn’t Musk.”
Sounds about right.
Have a great weekend, everybody!
