Rep. Ilhan Omar Illegally Used Campaign Money to Fund Her Illicit Affair, FEC Compliant Alleges...
This just keeps getting juicier and juicier.
Yesterday, PJM's Tyler O'Neil informed us of a divorce filing that named Rep. Ilhan Omar as "the other woman." Today, the Daily Caller reports that the National Legal and Policy Center has filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission alleging that Omar used campaign money to illegally fund the travel of her boyfriend -- during her extra-marital affair.
Omar’s campaign has disbursed $223,000 to Tim Mynett’s company, E. Street Group, LLC, from August 2018 through June 2019, mostly for fundraising consulting, FEC records show. But on April 1, her campaign began making payments to E. Street Group for “travel expenses.”
Less than a week later, on April 7, Tim Mynett confessed to his wife that he was “romantically involved with and in love with” Omar, according to a divorce filing Tuesday by Dr. Beth Jordan Mynett.
Beth Mynett said in her filing that her husband’s “more recent travel and long work hour snow appear to be more related to his affair with Rep. Omar than with his actual work commitments.”
Campaign money can be spent on just about anything. But to fund the travel of your married boyfriend so you can be together on those long, lonely nights on the campaign trail?
“If Ilhan for Congress reimbursed Mynett’s LLC for travel so that Rep. Omar would have the benefit of Mynett’s romantic companionship, the expenditures must be considered personal in nature,” NLPC said in its complaint.
The NLPC noted that FEC regulations prohibit the use of campaign funds for personal travel unless the candidate’s personal funds are used to reimburse their campaign.
“Rep. Omar’s filings do not reveal subsequent reimbursements for Mynett’s travel,” the NLPC stated.
It's not the first t..
