Is Ilhan Omar a legitimate U.S. citizen?
The article continues, saying "Rep. Omar has repeatedly 'claimed that she became a citizen at the age of 17,' Kern explained. However, based on public records, Kern said it seems as though Rep. Omar 'was actually 18 in the year 2000, when her father became eligible to apply for citizenship.'"
That's a bit worrisome. To get citizenship though a parent, you must be a minor. Being 18 makes you an adult. Therefore, you have to go through the process individually.
Here's the interview:
Further, the article says "Kern also pointed out how Rep. Omar changed her birth year on certain records—a key detail hiding in plain sight that Kern says has been long overlooked. Kern discovered that 'Ilhan Omar’s congressional staff contacted the Minnesota Legislative Reference Library on May 17th [2019] requesting to change the congresswoman’s date of birth from October 4, 1981 to 1982.'"Considering her reputation for dishonesty, it's difficult to trust her explanations. At this point, I'd find it easier to trust a con man. These statements don't fit together
Rep. Omar has repeatedly "claimed that she became a citizen at the age of 17," Kern explained. However, based on public records, Kern said it seems as though Rep. Omar "was actually 18 in the year 2000, when her father became eligible to apply for citizenship."There's an old lline from Law & Order where Jack McCoy said "I only know what I can prove." This is anything except proof beyond a reasonable doubt. What I knkow is this. She hasn't proven to me that she went through the naturalization process properly. Further, I don't trust what she says.After requesting and reviewing official documents, Kern believes that Rep. Omar "actually wasn’t a minor when her father could apply for naturalization. It kind of blows a hole in her story that she obtained naturalization or citizenship when she was 17."
