Get MACED - Here’s What They Were LOOKING For at Ilhan Omar's Home ｜ Nancy Mace

00:00:00.000 All right. Good evening, everyone. Congresswoman Nancy Mace from the great state of South Carolina here to talk about my colleague Ilhan Omar.

00:00:09.340 And in fact, Ilhan Omar's office is right next to mine in the Longworth House office building in Washington, D.C.

00:00:15.800 Unfortunately, she's my colleague and this morning her house got raided and I don't want to hear a single word from a single liberal who celebrated Mar-a-Lago getting raided and who are crying over Ilhan Omar's raid today.

00:00:36.100 and there are rumors flying all over the place about what this raid was about and we will go

00:00:42.740 over that tonight it's get maced and ilan omar is about to get maced

00:01:06.100 all right in the pre-dawn hours this morning in her washington dc home how can she afford

00:01:28.740 one on her income i don't know but i digress uh her home was raided by federal officers of hsi hsi

00:01:39.020 is homeland security investigations which is a subset of ice which is it's sort of ironic because

00:01:46.180 ilan omar will go to anti-ice protests with signs and people screaming f ice i said f i didn't say

00:01:57.260 the word i don't want to bleep it out tonight it takes too much time f ice that's what they believe

00:02:02.700 in so the irony is not lost on me the problem is this happened it's happening three weeks out from

00:02:08.420 an election so the accusations of election fraud and election interference will be will be pretty

00:02:14.180 tall pretty loud um so here's fox news they were on the scene this morning bright and early right

00:02:21.520 in front of her home and you can see on scene behind me uh there are several investigators

00:02:25.940 from Homeland Security Investigations. I'm going to back out of the way. Homeland Security

00:02:30.120 Investigations, they go by HSI. They are on scene. Also told that DOJ involved in this investigation.

00:02:37.600 We don't have details, guys, specifically about what the investigation entails,

00:02:41.520 but we can report that it is a federal criminal investigation.

00:02:47.700 Now, there are multiple rumors going around about what this is about. And Lawrence Jones,

00:02:52.460 right after this clip. I clipped it too soon. I'm sorry. But Lawrence Jones suggests it might be

00:02:59.260 a possible RICO criminal investigation. We've heard it's about paperwork that her father

00:03:04.940 submitted when she was a child, potentially related to immigration fraud. We've heard that

00:03:09.180 it may be related to her brother's husband's and hers alleged immigration fraud. And then I heard

00:03:14.720 Fox News this morning, Lawrence Jones, talked about potential RICO. The big thing is, is this

00:03:21.460 this was not a warrant just sort of willy-nilly we're just going to go into Ilana Moore's house

00:03:27.880 today no the feds went to a judge and told the judge they believe that the evidence there may

00:03:34.520 be evidence of criminal wrongdoing in her home and they had to get a warrant they got the warrant

00:03:39.620 from the judge so it's important that this was an approved judicial search warrant

00:03:45.840 um you know it's that's an important distinction it's not like they just pulled it out of the air

00:03:52.520 and said oh we're just gonna we're just gonna waltz in guys we're just gonna go right in walk

00:03:57.160 in waltz in till to ilan omar's house no that's not that's not what happened there was no

00:04:02.780 weaponization here but the timing of it is problematic because the weaponization

00:04:08.100 allegations are going to come out that this is politics three weeks before an election

00:04:13.180 so um that is problematic and maybe to her benefit in any sort of you know charge if one's to come

00:04:20.460 up she hasn't been charged with anything okay nothing this is just part of an investigation

00:04:25.320 and a search warrant a search warrant isn't a charge okay that's she's not been indicted she's

00:04:30.540 not been charged with a crime they're just searching her house and it's unclear if they're

00:04:34.540 searching for her house in minnesota too to get one prosecutors had to convince a judge that there

00:04:40.380 There would be evidence in her home and have reason to believe there may be criminal evidence inside.

00:04:46.200 So searching a sitting member of Congress's home is extremely rare.

00:04:51.900 But you might you might recognize this guy.

00:04:57.780 This guy is Senator Bob Menendez.

00:05:00.480 He's a former senator, Democrat from New Jersey, caught with gold bars.

00:05:06.860 gold bars i kid you not gold bars in his home in 2022 the fbi searched his home and found gold bars

00:05:14.460 and 480 000 in cash some of that cash was stuffed in jackets that had his name

00:05:21.880 embroidered on it they found a mercedes convertible uh that sounds lovely uh he was convicted on all

00:05:30.480 16 counts in July 24, August of that year, he resigned from office. And then he sentenced in

00:05:38.560 January 25, started serving 11 years in prison. Now, I went to a Munich security conference one

00:05:46.320 time and I sat in a room with Senator Lindsey Graham, some other senators, and the meeting

00:05:51.240 was led. I think Greece was there. There were different country prime ministers and foreign

00:05:56.100 ministers and defense ministers coming in and out of that room. But that room was with Senator

00:06:00.260 Bob Menendez. And we were meeting with different world leaders. I've never had anyone offer me a

00:06:06.580 gold bar or any cash for anything. That guy really, he really did it up. And so he's in prison now.

00:06:13.520 But honestly, thinking about the last year or so, I can't remember in my lifetime, the last time

00:06:21.920 we were putting, we were investigating and putting behind bars, Republicans and Democrats alike to

00:06:26.960 the to the rate that we are whether it's the ethics committee whether it's a federal investigation

00:06:32.560 we just had eric swalwell resign in disgrace he's under investigation due to those uh sexual

00:06:39.160 predator allegations tony gonzalez was forced to resign from office cory mills was just forced

00:06:45.720 out of office because it turns out it appears many of those things were had evidence behind

00:06:52.660 them i've been accused of a lot of things in congress none of which had any evidence big

00:06:58.280 difference and that's just me being targeted by the deep state being targeted by people i fired

00:07:04.680 oops by me going after the feds but also here i don't want to hear a single word about anyone

00:07:13.720 about ilan omar and the raid being politicized when they were the ones literally celebrating

00:07:20.040 Trump's home being raided at Mar-a-Lago. Now, Liz Wheeler reminded us, oh, here's this one.

00:07:27.720 Ilhan Omar said during the raid of Mar-a-Lago and many, many times over that no one is above the

00:07:32.920 law. And I hope she means that. No one is above the law. You're right. Nancy Pelosi said during

00:07:39.260 this time that we believe in the rule of law. No one is above the law, she said. I hope she

00:07:46.580 means it now like she meant it then and then we had liz wheeler reminded us that ilana mar might 0.76

00:07:52.640 not even be a citizen of the united states if there was fraud involved to to make her

00:07:59.680 naturalized as a citizen she might not have actually even be ilana mar might not even be 0.83

00:08:07.960 an american citizen if she's not an american citizen she can't serve in congress and should 0.62

00:08:11.780 be denaturalized well she wouldn't be a citizen she wouldn't need to be denaturalized would need

00:08:15.680 to be deported back to somalia in in my opinion but anyway but here but here's the argument for

00:08:22.320 ilhan omar's deportation the reason that she gained citizenship to the united states is because her

00:08:28.420 father fled somalia um ostensibly because he was afraid of the marxist communist regime but truly

00:08:37.860 the reason and if you look at the evidence it's quite compelling the reason that he fled was

00:08:42.080 because the regime had been toppled by the people and he was a member of that regime he was actually

00:08:47.100 a high-ranking military official he tried to hide that association so that he could claim asylum

00:08:52.120 here in the united states but he was in charge of propaganda for that communist regime and that's

00:08:57.300 the reason i mean that's immigration fraud right there ilhan omar was naturalized as an american

00:09:01.740 citizen because her father's asylum claim was accepted but if that was fraudulent then ilhan

00:09:06.600 omar's naturalized citizenship status is itself illegitimate to begin with going back to this

00:09:12.780 i haven't seen a time when we have had so many politicians investigated booted from office from

00:09:20.080 the very bad things that they have done or associated with honestly i think as an american

00:09:24.760 we have a lot to be proud of right now because we are weeding out some of that and um i think it's

00:09:32.500 I think it's very important that we do that.

00:09:35.380 Now, Ilana Mars said that she was unaware,

00:09:40.140 previous to this, unaware of any sort of investigation.

00:09:42.380 Watch this.

00:09:43.160 I'm wondering if they've reached out to you at all formally,

00:09:45.820 sent you any letters to tell you you're under investigation.

00:09:48.940 Nope.

00:09:50.360 Not at all?

00:09:50.900 No.

00:09:52.240 And what's your response to their allegations,

00:09:55.580 saying that, I mean, you're familiar with them.

00:09:58.280 Yeah, yeah.

00:09:58.720 The right wing has always had this going,

00:10:01.400 so i don't really worry about it it's always a right-wing never a legitimate investigation

00:10:07.400 omar was born in somalia here she is saying that she's a somali girl government including no in

00:10:17.880 if she loves somalia so much i would rather put somalians first over americans she should probably

00:10:22.920 go back to somalia to now now might need to be a really good time to do that she was born in

00:10:29.080 in Somalia. She came here as a refugee in 1995. Now, there are rumors about her father being a

00:10:34.100 war criminal. I don't have any evidence of that. That's just one of the rumors. She became a

00:10:38.800 citizen in 2000. Liz Wheeler said she might not be a citizen because fraud may have been involved

00:10:43.320 with her citizenship back then, allegedly. September 13th, White House border czar Tom

00:10:49.900 Holman went on Fox News and he said this. Let me find it. No, we'll see. I mean, if someone

00:10:57.480 committed immigration violation someone committed marriage fraud or anything like that regardless

00:11:02.760 if they're a congressman or not no one's above the law so i'll leave it at that we'll let the

00:11:09.640 hsi homeland security investigations continue the investigation now at the republican midterm

00:11:16.760 convention the new homeland security secretary mark wayne mullen who replaced that dog shooter

00:11:22.600 that girl that shot her dog christy noem with allegations of things her alleged boyfriend

00:11:31.640 anyway i should do a whole episode on that too

00:11:35.960 but homeland security secretary mark wayne mullen told benny johnson he went even further well

00:11:43.240 what's going to happen mr secretary something's going to happen

00:11:47.480 and this is an ongoing investigation um we we know that she married her her brother

00:11:56.820 to try to bring him in the united states we know he lives now in london

00:12:00.400 we know she married her brother the secretary of homeland security confirming the rumor that

00:12:09.600 all of us knew to be true that she really did marry her brother that that's insane

00:12:17.680 Now, there are multiple accusations out there that this is about immigration fraud when she was a child, that this is about immigration fraud when she married her brother, and that this might be about RICO, some kind of a RICO investigation.

00:12:30.880 I am not, you know, I don't know about the latter.

00:12:33.340 That's what Fox News was reporting may have been one of the allegations.

00:12:36.780 None of these are the same.

00:12:37.840 So Fox's sources, I trust.

00:12:41.600 They allege that the late father filled out paperwork when she was a child.

00:12:44.520 Then you have Secretary Mullen saying she married her brother, Ahmed Noor Saeed Elmi.

00:12:49.400 I think I did a pretty good job saying that Mullen says that he's her brother.

00:12:53.980 Holman wouldn't confirm anything.

00:12:55.560 He wouldn't confirm the brother claim.

00:12:57.060 But Omar has denied it for years.

00:13:00.520 And now it's official.

00:13:01.580 We know that she's she married her brother, according to Homeland Secretary.

00:13:05.560 But the funny thing is, is that I tried, you know, I worked so hard and I feel like I'm

00:13:12.120 always ahead of the curve.

00:13:13.280 And I know that that's going to sound like ego talking, but I feel like I'm always ahead

00:13:19.760 of things.

00:13:21.000 And so I get ahead of things on my stances, whether it's the war in Iran, whether it's

00:13:25.800 Ilhan Omar, whether it's Corey Mills, whether it's Tony Gonzalez, some of these controversial

00:13:29.920 issues.

00:13:31.840 And then months later, I mean, people say I'm crazy.

00:13:36.340 I'm not crazy.

00:13:37.140 I'm just sort of ahead of the curve sometimes.

00:13:39.920 And so now Nancy Mace isn't so crazy.

00:13:43.280 In January, I tried to subpoena Ilhan Omar's immigration records on the Oversight Committee, and it was both Democrats and Republicans who blocked my subpoena.

00:13:58.300 Now watch this. This is from the Oversight hearing.

00:14:01.120 The committee will now proceed with the Mace motion.

00:14:05.980 Ms. Mace, explain her motion.

00:14:07.080 Yes, this is to subpoena the immigration records of Ilhan Omar and her alleged brother, husband, and another husband whose names I cannot pronounce.

00:14:18.960 The Committee on Oversight and Government Reform is the principal oversight committee of the U.S. House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate any manner at any time.

00:14:27.300 We're going to vote on the amendment and the motion.

00:14:30.100 I'm just saying that's what the Ethics Committee is supposed to do.

00:14:32.440 Chair recognizes Mr. Perry.

00:14:34.560 Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

00:14:35.460 There are a few times that myself and Mr. Lynch agree on things.

00:14:40.520 I think he would admit that, as I have.

00:14:43.680 But on this occasion, I feel he is correct.

00:14:48.060 And while this committee may have the jurisdiction to do all manner of things,

00:14:52.800 I think this is a dangerous precedent to set.

00:14:57.580 I was told this was a dangerous precedent to set subpoenaing.

00:15:02.720 now now what i had done is i had subpoenaed tried to subpoena elan omar and her brother

00:15:07.760 husband's immigration records that day and then democrats try to subpoena cory mills records i

00:15:12.300 was for both okay i don't care if you have an r by your name or a d by your name subpoena every

00:15:17.820 effing body i don't care what your political affiliation is i have held republicans and

00:15:22.800 democrats in contempt regardless the problem is with congress that i have is you just you got to

00:15:27.800 set the standard and hold everybody to the same standard we stand on the investigation into ilhan

00:15:32.300 omar obviously there's some um you know questions regarding her citizenship she's been referred to

00:15:37.420 the ethics committee can we trust the ethics committee to actually be ethical and do the right

00:15:40.780 thing well uh what's happened so far like really i think the the the mark the remark is always

00:15:47.820 let the process play out right that's what they always say and nothing ever never happens i tried

00:15:52.780 to subpoena her immigration records her brother husband's immigration records and i was it was

00:16:00.060 was republicans that killed my emotion yeah and what's going on with that do you have any more

00:16:03.820 insight you can share on that as far as i know nothing's going on nothing will go on that's 0.99

00:16:07.520 just that's congress problem is is that when they want your ass out of there they hold you to a 0.88

00:16:14.120 different standard that is the deep state that is those are committees those are your colleagues 0.82

00:16:19.080 that is law enforcement those are prosecutors if you get on the wrong side in politics those people

00:16:27.220 will go after you. They'll go after you so hard until they throw you in jail or they throw you

00:16:32.420 out of town or throw you out of politics. It's a mob. And it works very well sometimes. So I was

00:16:40.660 told that I was setting a dangerous precedent by subpoenaing Ilhan Omar and her brother husband's

00:16:47.060 records by my own Republican colleagues. I don't think so. I set the precedent. Washington just

00:16:53.940 needed time to catch up don't you think so some say it's rico some say it's immigration fraud

00:17:01.420 we'll see where the investigation goes i expect ilana mar to call this political and that the 1.00

00:17:08.300 administration uses ice to go after its critics that's what she's gonna that's what she's gonna

00:17:12.960 say there my thing is i'm going back to all the hypocrisy that i've seen today the left saying

00:17:19.960 that this is weaponization literally when they raided mar-a-lago watch this the mainstream media

00:17:27.720 have appeared to be delighted about the raid i think the shortest distance between donald trump

00:17:34.920 and an orange jumpsuit is this investigation with the document perhaps the orange jumpsuit

00:17:40.480 is for is forthcoming i think a lot of people do want to see you know donald trump you know

00:17:45.780 handcuffed like an episode of cops and walking out we want to see a perp walk Donald Trump and

00:17:51.780 we may not see that it may be hot outside but in here it's Christmas

00:17:55.820 perp walked orange jumpsuit that's what the left was celebrating they said it was

00:18:02.340 they said it was Christmas in fact this is Stephen Colbert commenting on the celebration

00:18:09.140 It may be hot outside, but in here, it's Christmas.

00:18:14.260 Because yesterday, we all got the present we wanted.

00:18:17.720 FBI agent Raiden Marlado.

00:18:21.140 Oh, no.

00:18:24.920 Now I expect Ilana Mar to call this political. 1.00

00:18:27.820 She'll call it weaponization.

00:18:29.220 She said today that she wasn't going to be silenced. 0.88

00:18:34.160 I wonder if she could not be silenced while sitting in Somalia rather than the United States. 0.77

00:18:41.080 And speaking of orange jumpsuits, perhaps she needs to have an orange jumpsuit. 0.67

00:18:45.620 Maybe, perhaps she should be perp walked. 0.99

00:18:48.720 If we use that kind of language, can you imagine the outrage that the left would have right now? 0.98

00:18:53.680 So we should use it.

00:18:55.280 But if the evidence is there, they need to show it.

00:18:57.300 If it isn't, say so loudly. 0.97

00:18:59.920 Put this girl behind bars if she's earned it. 0.99

00:19:03.240 Either way, a judge will decide, not you and I, not Twitter.

00:19:07.840 But remember that none of us are above the law.

00:19:10.680 And when you see people being held to a standard, it's good for America.

00:19:15.400 This is good for America when we're holding Republicans and Democrats to a standard.

00:19:21.060 And this year, we've had an unprecedented history, I think, of doing that.
