Benjamin Weingarten

Carl,

it's great to join my friend.

How are you doing?

I'm doing great, Josh.

I frankly don't care, but I'd like to know what you think.

Well, what I think is that most of this, Carl, has been way out in the open for years and years now.

In fact, my good friend Ben Weingarten actually wrote an entire book on this topic about six years ago or so called American Ingrate, which is all about how Ilhan Omar was a living and breathing embodiment, not just of third worldism and Mogadishu Somalia culture.

warlord tribalism but also just just outright fraud how she essentially defrauded her entire life here so i i mean where where even to start i mean we have the revelation that she forged the year of her birth in order to make sure that that that she qualified as a minor when in fact she actually was not a minor she was 18 years old at the time otherwise she would not have been able to to be eligible to get citizenship according to time that she ate that she acquired it it's been public for years now that she allegedly married her own brother as part of the defrauding process How about the fact that her net worth just over the course of the past two, two and a half years or so has gone from a few hundred thousand dollars at the most to allegedly in the $30 million to $35 million range? Then quickly when she realized that, then she quickly scrubbed it away and tried to make it go away.

And the example of how it turns out is Iran.

Benjamin Weingarten has a massive piece about Abdul El-Sayed's connections to the Muslim Brotherhood through his family and all of his appearances, his participation in various groups.

You can read it at Substack.

Again, Benjamin Weingarten.

I'm going to run through this pretty quick because you've got a lot of the details already that I brought through various other sources, and he kind of puts it all together, but it's a huge piece.

First off, he says the records show that El-Sayed has served in repeatedly spoken before and surrounded himself with Muslim Brotherhood affiliates, including unindicted terrorism co-conspirators.

We're very skeptical of that.

the right side of history when it comes to the muslim brotherhood and terrorism and well instead apparently the young man asking the question is the problem we're going to get into all of that barack obama leaping to the defense of ilhan omar what is the red green alliance how do the midterms look good lord how will we get to all of it we've got ben weingarten joining us in just 30 minutes hans von spikoski for our weekly visit sean spicer knows what's going on asra nomani wrote the book on the red green alliance that's the uh communists joining forces with the islamists and then finally jim hansen about the national security implications of the riots on the street in western europe that's all coming up but let's get to this uh barack obama ohan omar stuff uh first when we last left you we well let's get you up to speed on the ohan omar investigation as you know her home was uh well it was uh uh OK, rated.

I'll use the word rated, although it's a bit of a volatile word.

But a warrant was authorized and approved by a judge in the District of Columbia for Homeland Security investigators to go into her home in D.C. with a warrant and, well, get a whole lot of documents.

in the trump administration lest they be investigated too she doesn't want to investigate anybody because there's a crime she wants to investigate the administration to scare future people who might want to come and work in the administration because she doesn't want good people coming to work in the government that's a member of barack obama's own political party in fact she's a rising star i'm told she'll run for president someday that scares the crap out of me There seems to be a little hypocrisy at play here.

I could be wrong.

Ben Weingarten, he wrote a book on Ilhan Omar.

He's been tracking this.

The reported focus is false statements, immigration fraud, and conspiracy, and both the Wall Street Journal and USA Today report that the administration seeks to denaturalize her and deport her.

My guest today is Ben Weingarten, an investigative journalist and Newsmax contributor, and the author of American Ingrade, Ilhan Omar and the Progressive Islamist Takeover of the Democratic Party.

In that book, Weingarten covered much of the potentially criminal conduct that seems to underlie last week's raid.

In this episode, Ben and I start with her father, a senior military officer in Siad Barre's Marxist regime who, according to reporting, presented himself as an educator when the family applied for refugee status.

We also get into Minneapolis' Somali community, the Feeding Our Future scandal, and the Red-Green Alliance.

I hope you enjoy.

Okay, Ben Weingarten, welcome to Counterweight.

Thanks for

An ongoing investigation, and she has faced notable allegations of corruption through the years, not just from Trump, but others as well.

Some of it rests on, quote, "extensive evidence suggesting that the Muslim representative legally married her flamboyant brother before a Christian minister", and that was reported by Federalist senior contributor Ben Weingarten.

Now, is that accurate? I don't know.

That was his report.

Here with Dan Schneider, vice president for MRC Free Speech America.

And our special guest, Benjamin Weingarten, who's a contributor at Newsmax.

as well as you can catch him at Real Clear Investigations and The Federalist.

And we brought him on today over his book a few years ago titled American Ingrate, Ilhan Omar and the Progressive Islamist Takeover of the Democratic Party.
