House Oversight Chair James Comer DESTROYS “Dollar Store Obama” Hakeem Jeffries After “Malignant Clown” Attack in Defense of Tim Walz and Somali Fraudsters

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) came out swinging on House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) in response to a recent press conference where Jeffries called him “a joke, an embarrassment, an unserious individual, and a malignant clown.”

This comes after the House Oversight Committee launched an investigation earlier this month into the widespread welfare and social services fraud perpetrated by Somali aliens, who stole billions of dollars from the state and federal government.

“The Committee on Oversight and Government Reform is investigating reports of widespread fraud in Minnesota’s social services programs. The Committee has serious concerns about how you as the Governor, and the Democrat-controlled administration, allowed millions of dollars to be stolen. The Committee also has concerns that you and your administration were fully aware of this fraud and chose not to act for fear of political retaliation,” James Comer wrote in a letter to Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison.

“The Committee therefore requests documents and communications showing what your administration knew about this fraud and whether you took action to limit or halt the investigation into this widespread fraud.”

Additionally, as The Gateway Pundit reported, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has launched his own investigation into the money trail and potential ties to terrorism.

On Thursday, a reporter asked Jeffries if he thinks Walz and Ellison should cooperate with the Committee’s investigation and whether or not he’s worried about the billions of stolen tax dollars in Minnesota.

But instead of even addressing the question, Jeffries went on a baseless attack against Comer and sounded like a bigger retard than Minnesota Governor Tim Walz.

“James Comer is a joke, an embarrassment, an unserious individual, and a malignant clown,” Jeffries said before overconfidently pointing to another reporter.

Did Rep. Omar Really Marry her Brother?

Rep. Ilhan Omar did, in fact, marry her brother. This is not a rumor but a documented fact.

Ahmed Nur Said Elmi came to the US from London in 2002. He was living as an openly gay man and his Islamic family did not support his lifestyle. A journalist at Free Beacon ran Ilhan Omar’s name through the Minnesota Official Marriage System and found two marriage certificates. One was to her public husband, Ahmed Aden, who later changed his name to Ahmed Hirsi. They applied for a marriage license in 2002, but never legalized the marriage. There is a second certificate dated 2009 for Ahmed Nur Said Elmi. Despite being a devout Muslim, her marriage certificate was signed by Christian pastor Wilecia Harris.

Omar’s campaign and lawyers insist she is married to Ahmed Ade,n but there is no official court documentation to show that the couple ever wed. They say that he is the biological father of her three children. However, voter registration records do show Hirsi and Omar living at the same address. Omar and Hirsi filed joint tax returns in 2014 and 2015 despite not being legally married. The paperwork shows that, under US law, her legal husband is Ahmed Nur Said Elmi—her biological brother.

“Like a lot of families, she and Hirsi, the father of their three children, have had ups and downs, have weathered some storms, but what matters is that they came out of it together,” [campaign spokesman Ben] Goldfarb said. He declined to offer more details.

Omar’s campaign has deemed any questioning [Donald] Trump-style misogyny, racism, anti-immigration rhetoric and Islamophobic division.”

Antisemitic Social Media Posts Force Mamdani Appointee to Resign

Zohran Mamdani hasn’t even taken office, yet his administration is already showing signs of trouble.

On Thursday, disturbing antisemitic comments shared online by Mamdani appointee Catherine Almonte Da Costa, set to step into the role of Director of Appointments, resurfaced, causing a firestorm.

The vile rants included comments about “money-hungry Jews” and saying the Far Rockaway train “is the Jew train.”

The Anti-Defamation League of New York and New Jersey shared Da Costa’s posts and demanded answers from the Mamdani administration.

The group said on X, “Mayor-Elect Mamdani has announced Catherine (Cat) Almonte Da Costa as his Director of Appointments, tasked with ‘bring[ing] top talent into this administration.’”

“Her social media footprint includes posts from more than a decade ago that echo classic antisemitic tropes and otherwise demean Jewish people. Tweeting about ‘Money hungry Jews’ is indefensible.”

“We appreciate Da Costa has relationships with members of the Jewish community, but her posts require immediate explanation — not just from Ms. Da Costa, but also from the Mayor-Elect.”

“Vetting the appointment of city leaders will be Ms. Da Costa’s responsibility and the Jewish community deserves to know:

1) Were these comments previously identified by the Mayor-elect’s team? If so, why were they excused?

2) What will be the policy of the new Administration if comments like these are discovered during the vetting process?”

The organization shared screenshots of Da Costa’s tweets, which remained up until Thursday, when it appears she deleted her account.

Soros-Backed Fairfax DA Repeatedly Dropped Charges Against an Illegal Immigrant — Now Someone’s Dead

The Democrats’ soft-on-crime, pro-illegal immigration policies are deadly. There have been far too many stories about career criminals with multiple arrests being given slaps on the wrist before they’re turned loose on our communities to rob, rape, and murder innocents.

But this story out of Reston, Virginia, takes the cake. Illegal immigrant Marvin Fernando Morales-Ortez, from El Salvador, has been charged with several crimes in Fairfax County, Virginia.

Including a first-degree murder charge in 2021.

But the Soros-backed Fairfax County Commonwealth Attorney Steve Descano entered a nolle prosequi and declined to prosecute not only that first-degree murder charge, but several more of Morales-Ortiz’s criminal offenses dating back to 2020.

Court Records Reveal Texas Senate Candidate Jasmine Crockett Had Legal Troubles After Renting Car with Convicted Robber and Repeat Offender

Court Documents obtained by The Daily Caller show that Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX), early in her legal career, had some bizarre legal issues after renting a car with a felon who was convicted of robbery and drug charges, as well as arrested and charged several other times. 

The apparent friend of Crockett, Soweto Hoilett of Texas, was accused of robbing three people in 1998 and pleaded guilty to two of the robberies, one being first-degree felony robbery, in February and September, according to court documents uncovered by the Daily Caller.

After serving five years behind bars, Hoilett was slapped with a drug possession charge in June 2005, which he pled guilty to in exchange for dropping an obstructing an officer charge, and was only sentenced to probation.

According to a lawsuit from Budget Rent a Car, Crockett rented a car with Hoilett on August 9. The rental company later sued her for refusing to pay after Hoilett, an unauthorized driver, crashed the car and totaled it.

One month after the pair rented the car, Hoilett was arrested and charged in September 2006 for an August 27, 2006, incident, where he ultimately pleaded guilty to resisting arrest and served 120 days in jail.

Democrat Running for U.S. Senate in Maine Supports ‘Giving Land Back’ to Indigenous People

Graham Platner, the Democrat running for U.S. Senate in Maine recently said during a streaming session that he supports giving land back to indigenous people in his state.

Platner has been under fire in recent months after it was revealed that he had an actual Nazi tattoo on his chest. Since then, he has been running on a slightly lower profile, waiting for that news cycle to blow over.

His comments on indigenous people and land is a perfect example of progressive virtue signaling. He has to show Democrat base voters that he is as radically far left as they are.

The Washington Free Beacon reported:

‘A Foundation of My Politics’: Graham Platner Calls To Return Maine Land to ‘Indigenous Population’

Senate candidate Graham Platner (D., Maine) called to return land to natives in the state he’s running to represent, arguing that longstanding injustices committed by state and federal governments remain unresolved.

“I, for one, am a firm supporter in any legislation that increases tribal sovereignty for the indigenous population in Maine,” Platner said Monday during a virtual town hall. “I also am a firm supporter of any legislation on the federal level that begins to give more, frankly, land back to the indigenous peoples that was taken from them, and there are a few mechanisms of doing this.”

“Tribal sovereignty, quite frankly, is a foundation of my politics,” he added. “I don’t think we get to have a future full of justice, dignity, and peace, but we don’t right the injustices of the past.”

There are roughly 10,000 indigenous people living in Maine—the 10th smallest population in the United States, according Census data in 2021.

So-called land-back advocates typically call for returning public lands, specifically, to natives.

Rep. Ilhan Omar’s Net Worth Jumped from $51K to $30 Million in One Year

Democrat “Squad” member Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) has denied being worth millions of dollars, but her latest financial disclosure tells a different story.

In February, she said people were falsely claiming she was worth millions, the Washington Free Beacon reported on Monday.

However, the Beacon’s article shows her net worth in the multimillion range. The outlet, citing a financial disclosure report, continued:

Omar reported in her latest financial disclosure that she and her husband, former political consultant Tim Mynett, accumulated a net worth at the end of 2024 ranging from at least $6 million to $30 million. Their wealth is derived almost entirely from the value of Mynett’s ownership stake in his two companies that, together, were worth no more than $51,000 at the end of 2023. The exact value of Omar’s personal fortune at the end of 2024 is unclear — lawmakers disclose the value of their holdings and debts in ranges. Still, the figures in Omar’s latest disclosures show that her and her husband’s net worth skyrocketed by at least 3,500 percent in just one year.

The Democrat’s surge in wealth is due to Mynett’s two businesses which are a winery and a venture capital firm, per the New York Post.

In February, Omar claimed that conservatives were unfairly targeting her over her finances, the outlet said.

“Since getting elected, there has been a coordinated right-wing disinformation campaign claiming all sorts of wild things, including the ridiculous claim I am worth millions of dollars, which is categorically false,” she stated, adding, “I am a working mom with student loan debt. Unlike some of my colleagues — and similar to most Americans — I am not a millionaire and am raising a family while maintaining a residence in both Minneapolis and DC, which are among the most expensive housing markets in the country.”

“Catholic” New York Gov. Kathy Hochul Moves to Legalize State-Sanctioned Suicide

New York Governor Kathy Hochul is moving the Empire State toward legalizing medical-assisted suicide, rebranding it as “medical aid in dying.”

You don’t “aid” dying. Dying happens on its own. The state is approving of the intentional ending of human life.

In an op-ed published by the Times Union, Hochul made clear that she intends to sign the so-called Medical Aid in Dying Act, which would allow terminally ill patients with fewer than six months to live to receive drugs designed to “speed up the inevitable.”

Supporters describe the proposal as “compassionate.” Opponents describe it far more bluntly: state-sanctioned suicide.

In her op-ed, Hochul attempted to wrap the legislation in lofty language about America’s founding principles, claiming that “limited government and broad individual rights” somehow justify empowering doctors to help patients end their lives.

She framed the issue as one of “bodily autonomy,” placing assisted suicide alongside abortion, LGBTQ ideology, and other far-left priorities New York Democrats have aggressively pushed for years.

For the modern Left, “choice” is the ultimate moral trump card, even when that choice involves ending a human life.

Tim Walz Goes It Alone: Uses Executive Orders for Gun Control After Legislature Rejects His Push

Gov. Tim Walz (D) signed executive orders Tuesday expanding Minnesota’s red flag law and creating a “Statewide Safety Council” intended to prevent “mass violence” and “targeted attacks.”

Walz’s gun control executive orders come after the state legislature refused to pass gun control measures he pushed after the August 27, 2025, Minneapolis Catholic school attack, in which a transgender man who had been identifying as a woman opened fire during mass.

According to KSTP, Walz said:

These actions today don’t limit your freedoms at all. Being shot dead in your school certainly does. … There’s no one fix to this, but there are certainly things that we know, there are certain things we’ve learned globally that make a difference, and these two actions will be another step in that direction.

Walz did not mention that the Catholic school attacker used three guns–a pistol, a rifle, and a shotgun–and that he bought all three guns legally, which means he complied with the left’s gun controls on acquisition.

Rhode Island Democrat AG SNAPS at Reporter When Asked Why Pro-Palestine Activist’s Brown University Profiles Were Scrubbed — Brown University Releases Statement

As the investigation into a shocking mass shooting at Brown University drags into its fourth day with no suspect in custody, Rhode Island’s Democrat Attorney General Peter Neronha snapped at a reporter after being confronted with mounting questions, including why Brown University scrubbed its website of a pro-Palestine activist’s profile.

As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, one of the victims of the attack was 19-year-old Brown University sophomore Ella Cooke, a devout Christian from Alabama and the Vice President of Brown’s Republican Club.

Fox News host Jesse Watters raised disturbing questions that many Americans are now asking:

“The family of Ella Cooke, the Alabama young woman who was a sophomore, has been told that she was the target of what happened at Brown. I have no idea whether that’s true. But if police are telling students they are safe and don’t need to shelter in place — while they don’t have a suspect in custody — that suggests this was a targeted attack.”

The second Brown University shooting victim has been identified as 18-year-old Uzbekistan immigrant Mukhammad Aziz Umurzokov.

Watters also noted reports that the shooter may have screamed “Allahu Akbar” before opening fire, though police have refused to confirm the details.

“A guy walks into an Ivy League building, fires off 40 rounds, murders two people, walks out — and three days later, they have no idea who he is. They won’t even say if it was a man or a woman. Police first claimed they had a white Army veteran detained… then admitted, ‘Oops, wrong guy.’”

As police stonewalled the public, internet sleuths noticed something else: Brown University wiped its website of profiles linked to a self-described “Free Palestine” and LGBTQ activist.

(NOTE: The Gateway Pundit is not alleging or asserting that the individual is the shooter at Brown University. No individual mentioned in this report has been charged in connection with the crime unless explicitly stated by law enforcement. As always, all individuals are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.)

When reporters asked Rhode Island AG Peter Neronha about the sudden removal of the profiles, he became visibly defensive.

Neronha insisted that if the activist’s name were relevant, law enforcement would be “out looking for that person,” and warned the public against “reading into things.”

He concluded by demanding that the public focus instead on helping police identify the shooter, despite the fact that authorities have released little actionable information.
