00:03:16.100that did deliver, but I will tell you this, and we're going to take a deeper dive into this
00:03:20.940later this week, okay? But I'll tell you this. As I watched it and I got two-thirds of the way
00:03:29.560into it, there is an explosive scene involving said actress, which made very clear to me why
00:03:36.740this is so beloved by the critics and many of the audience members. It did go political
00:03:43.580in this scene. It went political over someone who I happened to love. His name is Charlie Kirk
00:03:50.980and it was fucking ridiculous. It was ridiculous. And I was in the midst of a bunch of leftists1.00
00:03:59.680in the theater. I'm not going to ruin it for you again, but his name came up and
00:04:05.700one person was shitting all over Charlie and one person was defending him. And the person who was0.65
00:04:15.080shitting all over Charlie is the person who's supposed to be heroic in this film. And the0.93
00:04:21.980person who was defending him emerges as the villain of the entire movie. So it's just,
00:04:30.200you can't go anywhere. You cannot, as a right-leaning independent or a conservative in
00:04:36.300America, you cannot go anywhere without having your core beliefs or people you admire or love0.98
00:04:42.520dumped on by a Hollywood machine that just doesn't give two shits about you.0.94
00:04:51.280Now, does this make me want to say, don't go see the movie too? No, it doesn't. I mean,0.95
00:04:55.740I would still have gone to see it, even if I'd been told this. I could understand why you might
00:05:02.140not. It's not a political movie, except for in this one instance. But of course, that's how it
00:05:10.980had to play out, right? Of course. And of course, they would build as a hero, the one, and as a
00:05:17.120dirtbag, the other, and use this scene to really underscore the point. Like, what kind of an
00:05:22.760asshole would defend Charlie Kirk and what kind of an asshole and what kind of a hero wouldn't1.00
00:05:28.840see what an asshole Charlie was. So it's just, it was just maddening, very annoying and offensive.1.00
00:05:38.180And there were people in our theater, you know, I live in Connecticut who were completely against
00:05:44.480Charlie. I mean, they had obviously been so manipulated by the Nicole Hannah Joneses of the
00:05:50.260world into thinking he was this terrible, racist, sexist, whatever. It's just really disturbing.
00:05:57.460It's very disturbing to me on how a man's legacy can be so manipulated by a leftist media designed
00:06:04.760to ruin him, even when he was murdered in such a horrible fashion that any normal human would have
00:06:12.840ongoing empathy for him and his memory. You don't have to love him, but to treat him like
00:06:20.240he's like someone said the words, Hitler is great. The audience was recoiling at the defense0.98
00:06:28.420of Charlie in this one scene. So anyway, more on this later, because we're basically now in a fight
00:06:35.240for the narrative around Elizabeth Holmes, what she did, whether she's a villain, whether she
00:06:43.300belongs in prison and so on. And we will be taking up that battle as the week goes on.
00:06:48.800First, though, we want to get to the latest on the investigation into Ilhan Omar because some bombshells dropped over the weekend.
00:06:56.200As we've been reporting, the Democratic congresswoman is under federal investigation for possible immigration fraud as well as possible fraud around her financial disclosures.
00:07:06.900Federal agents raided her D.C. residence this day last week.
00:07:10.820It's been seven days now. And The Wall Street Journal reports that the Trump administration is aiming to build a case that strips her of her citizenship.
00:07:18.800Again, that's not a surprise. We've figured that out.
00:07:21.500If, as we discussed on Friday, she even is a citizen right now, that's the most interesting wrinkle to me.
00:07:29.220I mean, if you didn't see our shows last week, go back and watch Friday, because there is a possibility, like better than average possibility,
00:07:38.460that Ilhan Omar is not an improperly naturalized U.S. citizen,0.63
00:07:44.540but that she may be an illegal alien, not here lawfully at all.
00:07:51.060We apparently have not been able to find the paperwork,
00:07:55.060or at least the person who ran against her in a primary in Minnesota in 2019,
00:07:59.700A.J. Kempt, made two official requests of the Citizens and Immigration Services
00:08:05.240and of DHS saying, please provide Ilhan Omar's father's naturalization papers.
00:10:12.840And just how widespread is the fraud inside of this family?
00:10:17.960I want to just tell you a little bit more about that Leland Vittert.
00:10:20.860news. We cut it short, but there was more. So he said, the indictments will be stunning,
00:10:29.920far beyond anything we've understood this case to be about, that federal agents collected garbage
00:10:34.780in the hopes of obtaining DNA of Omar and her family before last Monday's raids,
00:10:41.060pointed out that multiple sources familiar with the probe told News Nation that potential DNA
00:10:46.120evidence is, quote, critical to the investigation into Ilhan Omar. They say the case is broader than
00:10:52.120the public may assume based on longstanding accusations surrounding her immigration history
00:10:56.440or marital status, broader than her immigration history or her marital status, and that the DNA
00:11:04.720evidence is critical to the investigation. Went on to say the investigation encompasses family
00:11:11.480members of Ilhan Omar, quote, with evidence expected to go before a grand jury. Federal
00:11:17.640agents, as we reported earlier, seized Omar's phone and that there were more than a dozen raids
00:11:24.060actually occurring simultaneously last Monday. We also reported that to you, that there had been
00:11:30.820multiple raids. It wasn't just to Ilhan Omar's residents, more than a dozen. Now that means it
00:11:37.220goes beyond family. She doesn't even have that many family members that we know of.
00:11:42.960Leland also reported that the case is being coordinated within the Minneapolis Office of
00:11:47.200Homeland Security Investigations, suggesting it may be related to public benefits fraud
00:11:52.840committed by some members of the Somali immigrant community in the region, because there is a
00:11:58.080question about why is it being run out of Minnesota instead of D.C.? They're also assisting.
00:12:02.960Janine Pirro was on Fox saying that last week. But why? Why is the center of the investigation
00:12:08.260in Minnesota? There could be all sorts of reasons. The warrant remains sealed. So we just don't know.
00:12:14.320We do know it was a Democrat magistrate judge who is apparently Hillary Clinton donor who signed off
00:12:20.720on the search warrant. And while Ilhan Omar's team is trying to make some noise about, oh, the search,
00:12:26.580the raid exceeded the bounds of the warrant, multiple officials have come out in the papers
00:12:31.780over the weekend saying that's absolutely not true. And they're not dumb. They've operated0.68
00:12:36.960within the terms of the warrant and that these are just the complaints of someone who is trying
00:12:42.660to make hay of the investigators as she tries to distract from the investigation. Now, the New York
00:12:50.500Times also reported Friday night that investigators have been examining family text messages taken
00:12:56.960from the phone of Omar's sister, Sarah Noor. Now, Sarah, I think that's how you pronounce it,
00:13:02.840S-A-H-R-A, was the other sister to be brought to America with Ilan back in 1995. And this is when
00:13:15.080she was allegedly 12 years old, Ilan Omar. And Sarah was the other sibling who came with her
00:13:22.500and their dad. And they all pretended to be Omar's, which they're not. They're not. They're
00:13:27.880Elmys. But they came here under the Omar name because the family of Omar was reportedly getting
00:13:33.200asylum and they kind of just glommed on. Now she has at least two brothers and we believe one
00:13:41.080additional sister named Layla who went to the UK when she and her sister Sarah came here with the
00:13:48.600dad. And this will become relevant because, you know, the one brother, the Bresbend, would
00:13:55.120reappear in America and back in Ilan's life. And it appears that Ilan's been trying for years to
00:14:02.180scrub the online records of her relationship with Sister Layla, because Sister Layla would tie her
00:14:11.440to Brother Ahmed, who's her Bresbend. So Sister Layla, we believe, has been over in the UK
00:14:18.040And she raised Ahmed. Ahmed. We believe she raised him. When he got over there, he was raised. There was no listed caretaker, even though he was a kid. And Layla, Ilhan's other sister, we believe, was older. And there's social media between the two of them calling each other mom and son.
00:14:42.480This is, the brother is Ahmed, the one she married.
00:14:46.360And in 2000, hold on, I wrote it down.
00:14:50.020I think it was 2002 and they divorced in 2009.
00:15:39.580back to the sister who came over here with Ilan and the dad in 95, Sarah, her phone was seized
00:15:47.660earlier this year by federal investigators. And the Times is reporting that investigators
00:15:53.620found something on that phone that they used as the basis for the warrant to conduct that raid
00:16:01.640on Ilan Omar's house. So that would be pretty compelling evidence. Clearly, it was compelling
00:16:07.460enough that a Democrat judge did not feel he could say no. They found something on the sister's phone,
00:16:14.740which they seized, that allegedly incriminated Ilhan Omar, and it was used by the feds to get
00:16:20.560a search warrant into Ilhan Omar's home. I mean, this is bad. It's bad. And the Times is reporting
00:16:28.380that investigators are now attempting to show that there was a conspiracy to commit immigration
00:16:33.280fraud. Conspiracy, obviously, you need at least two people and you need overt acts, at least one.
00:16:39.660Former President Barack Obama came out this weekend with a lengthy defense of Ilhan Omar.
00:16:47.320This is nothing new for him. He loves to weigh in on legal cases about which he knows absolutely
00:16:53.720nothing, nothing just to torque up the sentiment around them on obviously what, you know, the side
00:17:04.280that Barack Obama in his infinite with infinite wisdom has deemed is correct. He doesn't know
00:17:09.900anything. This is he claims that it's politically motivated writing in part. I mean, we'd be here
00:17:16.220all day if we read the full thing. But he wrote, quote, the full weight of the federal government
00:17:20.320is being brought down on a law abiding facts, not in evidence, sir, elected official because
00:17:25.300she has dared to criticize the president. He went on to say, quote, the fact that any president or
00:17:31.540any administration is willing to engage in such transparent efforts to intimidate someone should
00:17:37.300outrage all Americans. Weird. I don't remember him weighing in during Joe Biden's reign of terror
00:17:43.040against J six people who are just wandering around the Capitol, not those who beat cops,
00:17:48.960but the ones who were literally just wandering around the Capitol, not to mention what was done
00:17:54.740to President Trump, to Peter Navarro, to Steve Bannon. It's weird. It's only political retribution
00:18:01.280when it's done with Donald Trump at the head of the government, regardless of how they feel about
00:18:06.380Congresswoman Omar's political views, he continues. But because he writes, if this becomes the new
00:18:10.720normal, there's no reason to believe it will stop with her or that future presidents in either party
00:18:16.340won't do the same. It's unbelievable how obtuse that statement is, but that's giving him too
00:18:23.840much, too little credit. He's not obtuse. He knows exactly what he's saying. He just refuses to
00:18:30.180categorize what was done to Trump and Republicans under Joe Biden's reign, not to mention what
00:18:36.000Barack Obama did to journalists like James Rosen spying on them as an outrage. He's not outraged
00:18:44.720by it. He can justify everything he did or his former vice president did once he got into the
00:18:50.500Oval as president. But the evil Trump, it's a different story. Obviously, this one's political0.89
00:18:56.420targeting, even though the investigation into Ilhan Omar began under Joe Biden. I didn't see
00:19:03.240that in your tweet, Barack. Wrestle with that one. Let's stay right over the bullseye and engage one
00:19:10.500another substantively. I'm ready. Let's do it. You and I, former lawyers, former practicing
00:19:16.740lawyers, still current lawyers. Let's go. He won't stay over the bullseye, which because he's
00:19:24.460not a truth teller. You know, as our pal Phil Houston, this by the lie, former CIA guy of over
00:19:30.240quarter century says a truth teller runs toward the truth. They don't try to avoid the fact that
00:19:37.980it began during the Biden administration. They don't try to avoid any of the pesky facts that
00:19:42.520have emerged about Ilhan Omar that have even CNN scratching its head saying, hmm, this seems
00:19:50.080troubling. In fact, why don't I just show you that in part as Jake Tapper and Ellie Honig
00:19:54.280discussed this investigation a week minus two days ago, last Wednesday, SOT4.
00:20:01.080Would it not have been wiser for the congresswoman to have gone to the Biden Justice Department
00:20:08.740and said this has happened and there was a mistake and I'd like to come clean and pay0.99
00:20:14.280whatever fine and then that way this, you know, not left up to the Trump Justice Department?
00:20:18.700Is that, I mean, has that occurred to you or?
00:20:22.800It's a really tricky dilemma that any subject of this type of investigation might have.
00:20:28.420And indeed, she might have fared better under the Biden administration.
00:20:31.200But look, it's an important point of all this.
00:20:33.300There was some investigation, as I think Evan just said, that was started under the Biden administration, reopened under the Trump administration.
00:20:40.040So I think that's going to undermine any argument she may have down the line that this is politically selective and vindictive.
00:20:46.700But again, then again, Donald Trump has given her plenty of ammo to argue that she's being singled out for personal reasons.
00:21:22.900If she married her brother, if she lied about being here legally, the remedy for that is get out.
00:21:30.000I don't think anybody wants to take up one of our prison seats with Ilhan Omar.0.61
00:21:34.000But if she lied, if she committed financial crimes, if she benefited unfairly by, you know, other than her immigration status,
00:21:44.560then she's going to have to go to jail just like anybody else would, just like anybody else would.
00:21:49.100All right, so Preya Samson-Dar is a former journalist for Alpha News, the great Alpha News in Minnesota, which we love.
00:21:57.900And Preya was tasked over a decade ago to look into Representative Omar for the outlet.
00:22:06.140You might already own a firearm, but what if you could start with less lethal methods to avoid the financial and mental repercussions of pulling the trigger?
00:23:09.980it requires no background checks. So you can get it fast, unlike a firearm, and it can be shipped
00:23:14.860directly to your door. And Berna is trusted by hundreds of police departments too, which know
00:23:19.360the value of having multiple options of self-defense. Try before you buy. Visit Berna.com
00:23:25.500to find a Berna dealer partner near you. That's B-Y-R-N-A dot com.0.90
00:23:31.600Preya, thank you so much for being here. So just tell us, like, when you first started to look1.00
00:23:36.580into her, what was Ilhan Omar doing at the time over a decade ago? And what were your thoughts
00:23:42.660on this assignment? So obviously, like you mentioned, it's been a decade that we have
00:23:47.240been looking into now Congresswoman Ilhan Omar. Back in 2016, when we started diving into this
00:23:54.360investigation, to be quite honest, I was a little shocked. I myself am the daughter of immigrants,
00:24:01.540so I understand the immigration process very well because I've lived it my entire life. And so
00:24:06.300So, you know, seeing Scott Johnson, you know, come out with this story about, you know, then-candidate Ilhan Omar, who was just beginning her political career, running for office for the first time to run for the state house in Minnesota, is kind of shocking.
00:24:22.180The first kind of thought is, no way, there's no way someone would do this.
00:24:27.760But we decided to dive in, follow, you know, Scott's path a little bit, confirm that what he was reporting was actually correct.
00:24:35.800So we went down, pulled those records, and what we ended up finding were that there were two marriage license requests, one for her now ex-husband, and then one for her brother, who has been identified very well throughout the various reporting.
00:24:56.760The one with her brother had been filed.
00:25:00.560The one with her husband, her ex-husband, excuse me, was not filed.
00:25:39.360And then they divorced, she and the brother, because that one had been papered.
00:25:45.140And then she married this guy, Minette, who's got, you know, the $30 million winery that within a year went down to zero. So just to keep it straight, keep going. We're not on Minette. We're talking right now about that first husband and the brusband, as they've been calling him.
00:25:58.660Yes. And what struck us as very odd, to your point, she married the father of her children
00:26:06.520using traditional Islamic culture. So, she went through the process to make sure that it was0.76
00:26:15.820legal amongst their community. But when it came to her husband, her brother-husband,
00:26:21.240she actually got married by a christian pastor uh in eden prairie and that is who married them
00:26:29.980that is who the state records um had identified as being the individual who had had married them
00:26:38.360and that stark is odd because if you are a practicing you know muslim this is your faith
00:26:43.180you're taking the necessary steps to identify the father of your children as your husband
00:26:49.700in Islamic culture, but you don't have the same tradition for somebody that you did marry to the
00:26:57.740point where you're getting married by a Christian pastor, that started raising red flags. So, we
00:27:02.180started reporting on this, and what we ended up finding was a lot of folks within the community
00:27:07.560who were terrified to come forward because, you know, they're law-abiding citizens. These are
00:27:13.180people that are trying to just make it in this country, get, you know, get their version of the
00:27:19.020american dream they're opening businesses they want a better life for their children and so they
00:27:24.000don't want it to make they don't want it to seem like their their community is full of bad eggs
00:27:29.600um but also there's fear because bilhan omar is running for office there are a lot of folks that
00:27:36.720are supporting her um there's fear of retribution coming from within the community and so a lot of
00:27:41.900these folks were terrified about stepping forward um but they would come to us anonymously and give
00:27:48.220us reporting, give us information that we were able to verify. And this is how we started
00:27:54.460piecing together this web of who Ilhan Omar's family was. This is who her father was. This is
00:28:04.280who her brother is. And really just began feeding us information so we would be able to know and
00:28:10.000confirm that what they were telling us was the truth. I mean, it got to the point where we would,
00:28:14.320I would go down to Cedar Riverside, meet with sources in Somali coffee shops, and we would sit
00:28:21.240down and have Somali tea, and they would kind of explain to me the naming culture, and this is how
00:28:25.740they name their children, and this is how they carry on last names and carry on legacy. This is
00:28:30.100how they have moved through the immigration process over the years. And so, they were a0.88
00:28:35.440wealth of knowledge, but these were also people that were just terrified at the end of the day
00:29:42.300It's not something they just hand out to anybody.
00:29:44.800And so when it comes to public records requests, they might just say that there are no publicly
00:29:50.420available documents that are available for that kind of request.
00:29:55.660And so maybe that's why that it hasn't come forward.
00:29:58.200As far as anything that I have looked into, I know Scott's looked into and Dave's looked
00:30:03.160into as well. There's nothing to suggest that they haven't been naturalized. That has never
00:30:08.580been the question at hand. The question has always been. Well, other than the other than
00:30:14.940the response that A.J. Kemp got. Yeah. I mean, that that definitely raises. And our pal Andy
00:30:19.540McCarthy, who is no slouch when it comes to his legal analysis, he also pointed out five years is
00:30:26.460an awfully fast time to go from refugee to naturalized citizen. Awfully fast. They got here
00:30:31.34095. And by 2000, we were handing out naturalization to this dad who was very controversial and his
00:30:37.300daughters. So I think part of the process, you know, looking into that immigration process just
00:30:43.480a little bit, obviously, you know, we know that the administrations, both Clinton and Bush, were
00:30:49.220kind of fast tracking some of this refugee incoming. They were asking states to voluntarily
00:30:54.640take votes. The small community wasn't the only one at the time. We knew that now that
00:30:58.800current immigrants were also coming in from Asia as well at that time. So whether or not
00:31:05.560they were fast-tracking naturalizations at that point, we're not entirely sure. I don't think
00:31:12.320we'll ever really get a full comprehensive answer. What we do know is that at least at some point,
00:31:20.840Ilhan Omar's grandfather was serving as a general in Somalia in their military. That is something
00:31:26.420that we'd gotten from sources. Obviously, now we're seeing with more reports about who Ilhan
00:31:31.120Omar's father actually was. We knew at that time, 10 years ago, that he was not the mild-mannered
00:31:36.680teacher that they were painting him out to be. We knew that he came from a very important family,
00:31:41.480and so he would probably carry an important title as well. But also in Somalia at that time,
00:31:46.840even to now, we also know that they just don't have the level of record keeping that the United
00:31:53.180States and other more developed nations carry. So when you're thinking of the United Kingdom,
00:31:58.660you're thinking of Europe and Australia. They're not carrying the same kind of record keeping. So
00:32:04.080it's very easy for, you know, folks to come in and have siblings with very different names,
00:32:10.600just because that's how they keep records. It's very chaotic. And so it's also very easy to
00:32:18.280Because now what's emerging is that the granddad may have been a general in this army, but the dad appears to have been a colonel in said army and not some, as you point out, mild-mannered teacher, but a guy who was working for, I mean, a very controversial leader who's accused of killing tens of thousands of civilians.
00:32:36.780Not somebody that we would, had we known, ever given refugee status, never mind citizenship to.
00:32:43.260So what do you think when you when you now see that that there's not just renewed interest?
00:32:48.940OK, so let's say President Trump doesn't like Ilhan Omar and decided, as he did with Tish James and James Comey, possibly to push the DOJ to take a closer look at this person's behavior to see if there's a crime there.
00:33:03.240It seems to me in the case of Ilhan Omar, they struck the jackpot, whereas like they may have had to push it in some other instances with Ilhan Omar.
00:33:12.000There's just no way a federal judge would have signed off on a search warrant, which is serious business, unless he was convinced there was probable cause, sufficiently alleged, of a crime.
00:33:23.960So do you have any idea or belief on what specifically they may be investigating?
00:33:32.620I think that they're definitely looking into all different aspects of this.
00:33:38.000I think the reality is, is that they started pulling on this thread back during the Biden administration, as you so rightly pointed out. This is not by any means a political witch hunt. This is about looking at where the evidence is leading them. And so I think 10 years ago, we asked a question of whether or not Ilhan Omar married her brother.
00:33:57.300She has had 10 years to answer that question and to offer an explanation for why there is multiple documentation, why it is that she had a legal Christian marriage with somebody who, by Somali naming culture, carries the naming patterns that are associated with her family, and not the husband that she lived with had multiple children with.
00:34:24.600and up until recently was married to via Islamic customs. She has had 10 years to do that. She
00:34:33.020didn't have to answer me. I worked for Alpha News, a conservative outlet. I understand why she
00:34:36.860wouldn't maybe necessarily answer our questions of explain to us what this looks like. But the
00:34:44.180Star Tribune, the Associated Press, mainstream media after mainstream media asked her the same
00:34:49.140question and they gave her no answers. And while they may not have been able to report on it,
00:34:53.540definitely heard through the grapevine that they were all just as concerned and puzzled by the
00:35:00.320lack of response from her either. My guess is that the Biden administration decided to pull
00:35:05.520the string a little bit, maybe to close the books on this once and for all, give the American people
00:35:10.600the answer they deserve. And what they ended up finding was a web far more complicated than Scott,
00:35:16.620myself, or David could have ever imagined. Right, right. Get at it. Get out, get out,
00:35:21.560get out. This whole sweater's unraveling. We're done with his project. You actually did reach out
00:35:26.200to the, the Brisbane and, um, this guy off med, right. And he, he did respond to you, um, in
00:35:35.420August of 2016. Uh, let's see, hold on a second. I have it here. He responded to you that he is
00:35:42.720quote, not entirely sure. I'm aware of what's going on, but there seems to have been a mistake
00:35:49.720maid. No way am I affiliated with anyone in your articles, nor do I recall being married to anyone,
00:35:58.120at least from what I remember. This is August of 16, in which her brother, Ahmed, is definitely
00:36:06.540still married to her. She denies he's her brother, but he's totally her brother. And you're in touch
00:36:11.960with this guy who's been in the UK all this time. And he says, nor do I recall being married to
00:36:21.060anyone, at least from what I remember, then requested that you at Alpha News take down
00:36:26.780his image from your site and wished you luck in finding what you were looking for. I mean,
00:36:32.440that must have jumped out at you, Preya, as a little odd.0.99
00:36:36.440No, 100 percent. And through our reporting, through the investigation and through my
00:36:41.300conversations with sources within the community, it was very clear that the brother was the black
00:36:48.040sheep of the family. He was living a very non-conservative lifestyle by all measures
00:36:55.040that a well-standing family practicing the Islamic faith would expect. You know, he was living a1.00
00:37:03.580very gay lifestyle, like, let's just call spade a spade. He was living a very gay lifestyle,0.98
00:37:08.580going to clubs and just enjoying his life the way that you would expect a regular American would do.1.00
00:37:18.320But in Islamic culture, that's not acceptable. And so I think some of what we saw transpire1.00
00:37:26.720between 2009 and 2016 was the father trying to bring his son back and try to right the ship a
00:37:32.900little bit and get some control over his son. Did he come back to America? He was in the UK
00:37:38.160When the family split and she and the dad came here with their sister, it looks like
00:37:41.980the two brothers and the other sister, Layla, moved to the UK.
00:37:45.640But when she married him, did he come stateside?
00:37:48.520Yes, he was here for quite a few years.
00:37:51.080I believe that he ended up leaving right around 2013, 2014, if I remember correctly.
00:38:00.580He was here for quite a few years because some of the Instagram shots that we were able
00:38:06.320to recover via social media. It was very clear that he was well in connection with Ilhan at the
00:38:13.300time, and he was posting photos from around the city that were very identifiable. He was living-
00:38:20.600That makes sense, because we did hear last week that he had applied for a permanent green card,
00:38:26.360and they wanted more information about his marriage, and he withdrew the request.
00:38:32.040That wouldn't be surprising considering the information that we know. I think anybody who had done some, you know, digging into Ilhan at the time, I think that they would have discovered that this would have been something akin to green card fraud, you know, a scam green card marriage.
00:38:51.940This is something that the United States Immigrations and Customs has done very well over the decades.
00:39:00.800They know what to look for when it comes to signs for immigration fraud, when it comes to marriages and green card marriages, to the point where they're investigating these families years after the marriage has occurred.0.98
00:39:14.780mm-hmm and so what do you make of this news about the dna dumpster diving on the family
00:39:23.400i mean that's always been in question right because ilhan's never answered the question and so
00:39:30.060i think for any federal authority to concretely make the case outside of you know the social
00:39:37.740media conversations that we've been able to identify or even some of the records um being
00:39:42.600able to concretely say without, you know, a question of doubt, we've tested the DNA and we
00:39:48.260can link these individuals as members of the same family having the same bloodline. That's going to
00:39:54.440surpass any of these questions about, you know, political witch hunts. You know, this is Donald
00:40:00.420Trump coming after immigrants or Ilhan Omar. You know, she's got a target on her back. This is,1.00
00:40:07.460The DOJ and the individuals in D.C. and in Minnesota who are conducting this investigation, they're making sure without a shadow of doubt that when they come to a jury, the grand jury, when they come to these federal judges and say, this is our case against a congresswoman, they want it to be known without a shadow of a doubt to any jury members, to a judge, to the American people that this is not done out of political malice.
00:40:35.640But this is done because someone has broken the laws of this country and they tried to get over and over and over again.
00:40:42.560Yeah. Here the this guy, Ali Mistel, writes for The Nation, and this was his take on what's happening with Ilhan Omar.
00:40:53.400He writes, the attack on Omar should be viewed as an attack on every immigrant, every person of color and every outspoken activist in this country.
00:41:01.960The Trump administration is saying that no matter who you are, they, the white people in charge, can make you disappear.
00:41:10.200He writes, people doing this to Ilan represent the very worst this country has to offer.
00:41:15.260The idea that no matter what you have, the white man can take it from you whenever he feels like it.
00:43:46.700then her sister who came over with her. She's now named Sarah Noor, but her name was Sarah
00:43:53.900Noor Syed Elmi. And her three siblings who are granted asylum by the UK are Leila Noor Syed Elmi,
00:44:02.200Mohamed Noor Syed Elmi, and Ahmed Noor Syed Elmi. And you were one of the ones who looked into
00:44:10.260before this all came out, because you were there right at the beginning when this was just breaking.
00:44:15.060what does the uk family say how do they describe their relationship with one another i mean they
00:44:21.560refer to her as a sister um and if i can explain the refer to ilan naming culture here really quick
00:44:28.440because i think for a lot of folks it can be very confusing if you haven't looked into it
00:44:32.780essentially they attach the father the grandfather and the great-grandfather's
00:44:37.140first names to the end of the child's first name. So, when you see Ilhan Noor Saeed Elmi
00:44:45.660is what her birth name would have been, it is because Noor is her father's name,
00:44:51.780Saeed was her grandfather's name, and Elmi was her great-grandfather's name. And so,
00:44:57.180that last name will drop off when they name their children, and it follows the paternal line.
00:45:03.240um and now back to you know your initial question about you know how they were describing you know
00:45:11.120it was very clear that ilhan would go over to the united kingdom she would visit with her family
00:45:16.260um you know we have a social media post where um ahmed is referring to ilhan's children um
00:45:24.840you know she had just given birth he's referring to her daughters as his nieces fresh out of the
00:45:30.260womb, and she's laughing about it. And this is during the time where they're married.
00:45:36.880So he wasn't very effective at covering up the fraud.
00:45:40.840I don't think they expected anybody to look. And the reality is, is if she hadn't run for office,
00:45:46.740where folks would start putting this into the mainstream, especially, you know, when you
00:45:52.440understand the different clans within the Somali community, sometimes there's a little bit of
00:45:58.400infighting there. Um, and so if one of those clans starts speaking out, um, putting some stuff
00:46:03.960into, um, you know, on the internet, um, starts, you know, spreading these rumors out, somebody's
00:46:10.360going to start looking because she's now a person of interest. And that's exactly what happened.
00:46:14.920Um, the reality is, is like none of this would have expanded, um, the way that it has if members
00:46:23.040of the Somali community weren't talking on a public, but what they thought was private,
00:46:29.060online chat room called Somali Spot. That's where Scott's initial reporting started 10 years ago,
00:46:37.440is because members of the Somali community were talking about this in great lengths,
00:46:42.940about Ilhan Omar marrying her brother, and these regular Minnesota voters who had no idea
00:46:50.180We're about to elect this woman as their congresswoman or as their state representative, excuse me.
00:46:56.600Their state representative, yeah, eventually as their U.S. congresswoman.
00:47:01.060You reported back in August of 2016 that Ahmed had an Instagram post calling two young girls with a backpack from a primary school in Camden, his nieces,
00:47:16.840and that Ilan's Instagram account loved the post. Are those her daughters?
00:47:22.500Those are Layla's daughters from our reporting. So Layla has two daughters.
00:47:28.600Layla has always lived in the United Kingdom. There's no evidence that I've been able to find
00:47:34.240that suggests she ever came to the United States. From all of our reporting, it suggests that Ahmed0.96
00:47:42.280came to the United States when he was still a minor. We know that he graduated from a St. Paul
00:47:47.420high school, then went back to the United Kingdom, and then obviously came back when he then married
00:47:53.700Ilhan in 2009. But Layla has always stayed in the United Kingdom. She was married there. She
00:48:00.900gave birth to at least two daughters that we know of. Those were the young girls that
00:48:07.040Ahmed referred to as his nieces. And we know that Ilham liked that post. We also know.
00:48:14.660And then you also reported that Ilhan liked that she has an Instagram post picturing herself with
00:48:22.240the same twin girls and that she called the girls her nieces. Yes. So she and her husband
00:48:29.960are calling the girls their nieces. But we don't think the husband is calling the girls his nieces
00:49:04.720And you reported that on August 10th, 2017, so that's a few months before her December divorce from him, Ilhan swore under penalty of perjury that she had had zero contact with Ahmed after June 2011, which would have been two years into their marriage.
00:49:24.760Further, she swore she did not know where to find him.
00:49:27.880She did not know a single person who was likely to know his whereabouts.
00:49:31.480And she did this to apply for a default divorce from Ahmed, a divorce where one spouse cannot be located and served.
00:49:38.320I mean, we know that just from civil court.
00:49:39.780Like if you file a tort action against somebody and they never respond to your tort claim, you win by default.
00:49:45.880The court will enter a judgment for you by default because they defaulted.
00:49:50.540And she was trying to get a default divorce from him saying, I haven't seen the guy.
00:49:54.900I've been married to him for, what, eight years, and I haven't seen him since after year two of this marriage.
00:50:01.180So what happened when you saw that and then tried to find him?
00:50:05.860I mean, we had a ton of evidence, you know, at that point that she had been in contact with Ahmed.
00:50:13.480Obviously, we had the various social media posts.
00:50:16.180We were able to start linking family members together at this time.
00:50:20.540But we have to also be reminded here that Ilhan probably would never have sought the divorce if Scott and I hadn't started asking questions.
00:50:32.520Because as we remember, when Scott's initial questions about this marriage first came to be, she didn't send them to a normal attorney.
00:50:42.440She sent them to a criminal defense attorney to have her answer Scott's questions.
00:50:47.620And that right there, I think, was a tipping point that something wasn't necessarily right here.
00:50:53.660But, you know, we reported on this for, you know, what it was.
00:50:57.940And, you know, as we've kind of seen over the years, it was kind of the same answer of like, well, you know, I haven't seen him.
00:51:05.920She refused to acknowledge the fact that she had engaged with him on social media.
00:51:11.980It's just the constant deflect and, you know, victim blame.
00:51:16.280And that's what she's done for the last 10 years.
00:51:17.920And then after you guys started reporting on this, my understanding is they took down their social media, they scrubbed these references, then when they reposted social media, these references were gone, but you still had a record of it.
00:51:29.740Yeah. And that really was why we took the screenshots when we did, because I knew right away that once we started reporting on this and this started to get out, things were going to start moving and things were going to start disappearing very quickly.
00:51:44.280And so we needed to make sure that there was a record.
00:52:04.000See you soon, and we'll be right back.
00:52:05.760Our sponsor, the Electronic Payments Coalition, says Washington politicians are always getting
00:52:10.280in your wallet and that now they're messing with your credit card.
00:52:13.560They say your credit card and the security it offers are under attack and that Senators Dick Durbin and Roger Marshall want to change the nation's payment system to benefit corporate megastores like Walmart and Target at the expense of everyday Americans.
00:52:27.560Credit cards can keep your payments secure and provide rewards that families use to help make everyday purchases more affordable.
00:52:33.700The Electronic Payments Coalition says the Durbin Marshall mandates would let corporate megastores cut corners on credit card processing, routing transactions over cheaper, untested networks with weaker security and fewer protections.

00:52:55.100Our financial advisor would listen to us and actually really get to the meat and potatoes of what our lifestyle is and what we believe in.
00:53:03.700Knowing our financial advisor was always there.
00:53:08.300We can call him with anything, at any time.
00:53:11.740We do money differently by providing advice that actually fits you.
00:53:25.200We have been gabbing and gabbing in the commercial break about so many news stories.
00:53:30.660One of these days, we got to, well, I'll tell you, one of these days, we'll just do a behind
00:53:36.520the scenes and you'll get to know Steve and Debbie better and you'll get to hear their
00:53:39.720opinions on things because I think you'd find them very fascinating and very politically astute.
00:53:45.940Okay, I want to keep going with the news. There's news, a lot of news actually today
00:53:50.840about Kimberly Guilfoyle, my former colleague at Fox News. And as you know, the person who
00:53:57.880lost her ambassadorship to Greece last week, the president asked her, well, he fired her,
00:54:03.540because there had been story after story in the Daily Mail and the Wall Street Journal
00:54:08.580about her engaging in effective, you know, you scratch my back and I'll scratch yours
00:54:15.800behaviors. Only her back wasn't really the back of the United States. It was the back
00:54:22.500Kimberly Guilfoyle, like do Kimberly Guilfoyle a favor and I'll make your life easier. I'll
00:54:28.980steer business your way. These are the allegations. She denies them. But this is why Trump fired her
00:54:36.460and told her to step down. So this story is not over, not by a long shot, and we're going to be
00:54:42.980getting a lot more. But I wanted to tell you about the latest because this guy's threatening the
00:54:47.280Trump administration suggesting what he's going to reveal eventually could could tarnish the
00:54:54.620chances of J.D. Vance or Marco Rubio should they choose to run for office. I think that may be
00:55:00.080overstated, but you take it for whatever it is. Here's the story. This guy, Eric Dieters, who was
00:55:05.660one of the ones who helped bring down Guilfoyle, was like a Trump sort of gadfly. He was everywhere
00:55:13.100around the Trump administration, just sort of lingering and knowing people and buttering up
00:55:17.420people and taking guys like Eric Trump and Donald Trump and Kimberly places and paying them money
00:55:23.220to speak in front of, you know, his business cohorts and so on. And he ran for office in
00:55:29.300Kentucky. He did not win. And he remained, it appears, somewhat close with Kimberly for years
00:55:35.080because he's got reams of Snapchat messages, not Snapchat, Signal, you know, the supposedly
00:55:40.980confidential messaging app, messaging between him, Eric Dieters, and Kimberly Gofoyle.
00:55:48.620The Wall Street Journal of reporters who broke the story have attested that they
00:55:51.620looked at the entire exchange on Signal on his phone and verified that it happened,
00:55:56.500even though Kimberly reportedly told the Trump administration that those messages that helped
00:56:01.580bring her down were AI. He alleged, just to quickly refresh you, that she wanted him to
00:56:09.000spend $100,000 paying off some Amex bill of hers prior to her confirmation hearing
00:56:14.060because it's not good to look like you're in a lot of debt when you've been nominated to an
00:56:18.900ambassadorship. Generally, everybody who becomes an ambassador is filthy rich. Those positions
00:56:25.420always go to one of the president's biggest donors who helped him win the campaign. And it's not all
00:56:32.460just like a favor. It's largely a favor. But one of the reasons why they want you to be rich
00:56:36.500is because, believe it or not, when you go over to these embassies, you're expected to entertain
00:56:41.020and, you know, glad hand with dignitaries and, you know, make nice, nice with the Greek
00:56:46.920political class in her case. But you are expected to do it all on your own dime.
00:56:53.880It's actually pretty remarkable. They want you to be able to pay for it.
00:56:57.680And for most of these guys, they're so rich. It's like a rounding error. They don't even notice
00:57:01.600this, but Kimberly did not get the ambassadorship by being a very rich donor to President Trump.
00:57:07.040She got it because she was breaking up with Don Jr. And clearly they wanted to ship her into
00:57:13.920exile so that she would not be a problem for them. Literally, nobody thought she had qualifications
00:57:19.080to make her a great Greek ambassador. But in her defense, few do. Few who go on to be ambassador
00:57:26.080to wherever have some expertise in the local culture. Sometimes they do, but the norm is
00:57:32.420the biggest donors get those posts. And if you're at the top of the donor list, you get the court of
00:57:38.300St. James, you know, the UK one, you know, if you're next up, you get the one to Ireland,
00:57:43.780et cetera. So Greece is a pretty good one. And it was obviously given to Kimberly because
00:57:48.840the Trump family wanted to exile her. Whatever. It may not be a great reason, but I'm sure there
00:57:56.260have been worse reasons for appointing people to ambassadorships. So she goes over to Greece
00:58:01.380and the allegations are that rather than just being grateful for the position and realizing
00:58:06.400this is like a great honor that she could really make something out of, that she grifted and that
00:58:11.500she used the position to sort of get private jet air travel, very fancy hotel rooms, fancy dinners
00:58:20.200all over Greece, cases of champagne and so on, paid for by others because she was this fancy
00:58:27.960ambassador there on behalf of the United States, and that she wasn't looking to improve any
00:58:33.080positions of ours over there, but only her own lifestyle. That's the allegation. She and her
00:58:38.420lawyers deny this. But back to Dieters. He claims she asked him to make her look more financially
00:58:45.700solvent prior to her confirmation hearings by depositing, not depositing, by paying off $100,000
00:58:52.160of her Amex bill. And that he responded, I can't do that or my wife would divorce me. And there is
00:58:58.920plenty of correspondence between the two of them reviewed by the Wall Street Journal that reportedly
00:59:02.720has her saying, Eric, stop putting this stuff in writing. Why do you continue to paper the deal?
00:59:07.280He reportedly offered her a million dollars if she could get him on Tucker's podcast because he's got his own complaint about some doctor he feels has defrauded and hurt a group of people and then fled to Pakistan.
00:59:23.760And he really wants this doctor to be brought back to the United States.
00:59:27.980I don't know what interest he has in this doctor and these people he's allegedly hurt, but it's definitely a major cause of Eric Dieter's.
00:59:35.180So he reportedly offered Kimberly Guilfoyle a million dollars if she would get him on Tucker's podcast. Tucker told the New York Times or the Wall Street Journal, I don't know anything about it. A million dollars? No. Isn't this Don Jr.'s ex-girlfriend? No.
00:59:50.420Anyway, Dieter's eventually got sick of being promised things by Kimberly, he says, and then she didn't deliver.
00:59:58.800He also had some tax issues that he said, I need help with.
01:00:04.120And she reportedly said, you know, make it worth my while.
01:00:06.880I've got access to all these people in the administration.
01:00:09.220And he seems to be claiming that that's why he gave her $300,000 in speaking fees, not because he really wanted her to speak at his events, but he wanted her to speak to the IRS commission or others to resolve some of his issues.
01:00:19.740So look, none of that is ethical on her part if it happened, and some of it may be illegal.
01:00:30.280She's, you know, she's been brought down as the ambassador, and she's going to have a host of other problems to deal with as she's being investigated by the State Department IG, and it could potentially go beyond that.
01:00:40.260He is still angry, and he is now suing Kimberly and her lawyers as well for defamation.
01:00:48.460It's kind of the E. Jean Carroll move where she alleged Trump raped her.
01:01:03.700It's like you're not allowed to defend yourself if somebody sues you.
01:01:07.840In any event, now Dieters is saying that Kimberly and her lawyers attacks on him because they went beyond denying his allegations.
01:01:15.480They they attacked him. We're defamatory and he wants defamation damages. Well, that'll play out in civil court.
01:01:21.860The unfortunate thing for Dieters and this whole thing is he muddied the waters by asking in his damages complaint and his complaint, his request for damages.
01:01:32.080That this doctor be immediately returned to the United States as like the remedy, which just undermines the seriousness of this thing entirely.
01:01:40.120no court is going to entertain, forcing the administration to compel some doctor.
01:02:10.120He's on tape with Eric Dieters. Dieters released the interview late last week, and he claims to be the head of this Republican group over in Greece that he says, hold on a second, is like a GOP sort of fundraising advocacy group over there.
01:02:33.760I want to make sure I don't misstate it. President of the Greek branch of Republicans Overseas. And he's got how many followers on X, did we say, or on social media, guys? Okay. So on Facebook, he's got 8,000 followers. That's not that many. I don't know anything about this guy. And this all needs to be taken with a grain of salt because we're not exactly sure who this Constantine is.
01:02:59.980But he's on the record with Eric Dieters and says both the audio and later did a YouTube with him making some allegations about how deep this corruption alleged went.
01:03:14.060We're going to listen to some of what he said.
01:04:05.380Since that report was sent to the GOP and my superiors using the chain of command, I managed to secure an indictment for grand fraud for one of her associates, one of the people who bribed her.
01:04:28.200So we do have a lot of material here. It's about 7,500 pages.
01:04:35.380Okay, to be underscored again, there's no proof of this. He says he has proof of it. We have not seen that. It's already out there and it's making a lot of headlines.
01:04:44.500This is what he claims, that millions of dollars with alleged ties, he adds, to CCP and or Iranian interests have been funneled, he alleges, to Guilfoyle through a guy whose name he mentioned there, Christos Marafatos, whom Constantine described as a close associate of hers and an intermediary in her dealings with business interests.
01:05:12.300He alleged that Marafazzos developed a particularly close relationship with her after her appointment as ambassador, and he said that donations raised were deposited into a personal bank account.
01:05:28.060Again, though, so far, he has not provided said supporting evidence publicly, though
01:06:17.620saying she's done a lot of damage to US interests.
01:06:20.980That's an allegation. Again, what is this? We have no idea whether this has any substantiation. And Kimberly, I mean, she's denied any and all wrongdoing whatsoever. He underscored it with the headline that's come out of this. It's everywhere. And it's Satin 18.
01:06:37.500can i be blunt yeah always be blunt with me okay sir uh yesterday uh a couple of days ago a client
01:06:47.040of mine and who's also a donor by the way we have a cap on uh donations here uh of two thousand
01:06:55.820dollars the reason being that if somebody comes with too much money it means that they want
01:07:01.420something which is usually immoral, illegal, or undoable, he said the following, Kimberly0.98
01:07:08.040Gale Foil can be summed up in three C's, and this is the blunt part, cunt, coke, and0.99
01:07:28.980Yes, sir. And we know who supplied it, when it was, because we, unfortunately for her, the staff of the embassy talks to us. Reason being that my DP used to be 25 years personal director in the embassy. So I know it all.
01:07:48.060Okay. Both men better be damn sure that that's true. Because if I were Kimberly Guilfoyle and
01:07:56.080someone said that about me, I would sue them immediately. Immediately. I mean, the first
01:08:03.540C is just a pejorative and a general smear that is not exactly defamatory. Somebody's basically
01:08:09.060like, you're a Nazi. You can't sue them for that. It's like general rhetoric. That's very
01:08:14.220unflattering and untrue in many cases, but you can't sue over something like that. And just
01:08:20.060calling somebody the C word is the same. But alleging she does drugs, absolutely. If somebody0.71
01:08:26.680ever alleged that about me, I would sue their asses so fast because I've never done drugs,0.99
01:08:30.320no drugs. And it would be fun. It would actually be really fun to sue their asses and see0.99
01:08:35.680who their witnesses were. And then there's the third allegation, which is basically bribery,0.99
01:08:41.200the cash thing. We've gone through some of those allegations, all of which she's denied,
01:08:45.880but which, unlike the other, you know, first two, which would revolve around, again, the one's not
01:08:50.680suable, the second one would be provable potentially with a witness. But the third one,
01:08:55.420that's knowable, whether she took bribes, whether she was doing her bidding versus ours
01:09:00.740while ambassador to Greece. And honestly, you know, we should know because that's completely
01:09:07.600unethical, if that's what happened. I have to be honest, though. I do wonder
01:09:13.760why so much focus on Kimberly Guilfoyle? Because have these other ambassadors,
01:09:21.100like the ones who were there for Joe Biden, have they been so squeaky clean? I really wonder.
01:09:27.120And like, who are the staff in these embassies? And do they have political leanings one way or
01:09:32.980another? Like, that's another question I'd like to know. So I really hope that if this is false,
01:09:39.240she does fight it and has the chance to offer her side. I've got my concerns. I've got to be honest
01:09:48.580about her behavior. I do. And I've got my reasons for those concerns. Tim Dillon has a humorous
01:09:56.740take on it. And he, you know, he does it like nobody else can. He had me hysterical on his
01:10:01.480show over the weekend. Not, not about this, but just about so many things, some of which we're
01:10:05.280going to play for you as the week goes on. But, um, he, okay, let's see. Here's, here's thought
01:10:13.06022. What are you supposed to do in Greece? Not get on jets with Greek businessmen? What did they
01:10:20.160think you were there to do? Learn about the history of Athens? Like you're there. She was
01:10:26.100there to do exactly what she did scam and throw the pussy so why is this such a big deal0.99
01:10:34.600these allegations are false and i intend to vigorously defend my name my reputation and0.98
01:10:42.260my integrity now what's great about these people is even as that statement is drafted
01:10:48.200the the greatest thing about somebody like her what makes these people so fun is they know that
01:10:53.540they get it the people i'm talking about the people in and around this administration this
01:11:01.000roving band of narcissists even as that statement is released there she knows
01:11:08.720that the reputation is in tatters and the integrity is a foreign concept to her it's
01:11:14.400nothing integrity has never made her a dollar listen to the next thing because the next thing
01:11:19.640is one of the funniest lines and you can tell she didn't write it but someone wrote it because they
01:11:24.540all hire people to write things like this and this is one of the funniest things i have ever
01:11:28.700heard in my life i have dedicated my professional life to fighting for justice standing up for what
01:11:36.200is right and defending the values that make america exceptional i mean kimberly
01:11:42.460Kimberly we're laying it on a little thick aren't we I have dedicated my professional life
01:11:51.860to fighting for just by the way I mean to say you've had a professional life is a little bit
01:11:58.760of a stretch you've you've certainly had a life where you you know we know who you are
01:12:04.760professionals is a loose term but this idea that she's fighting for justice in fact what
01:12:12.260makes her probably a lot of fun at a dinner is that she wouldn't even know what any of those
01:12:18.020words mean none of them would so i have some thoughts on that i love tim and he's hysterical0.99
01:12:23.780but here's the thing about kimberly she she did she she did have a commitment to justice when0.58
01:12:31.080she went to law school and she was a young da in san francisco and started working for court tv
01:27:46.940I think most of us are happy if they're going to do anything that it has, you know, sexy women walking in it as opposed to where we were in 2021.1.00
01:27:55.980One, when their so-called angel campaign looked like something that Nicole Hannah Jones had put together as an example of female empowerment.0.64
01:28:05.140It was all about diversity and embracing, you know, chubby bodies as like the new sexy.0.56
01:28:13.740It was like, how many United Colors of Benetton can we get into everything we put out there?0.94
01:28:20.060and we need to see, you know, obese models
01:28:50.060there is a reason they moved past that. Now, they do their runway show, and the girls have1.00
01:28:57.460the wings on. Okay, that's fine. The Hadid sisters there, I don't know, one of them's there. I can1.00
01:29:03.200never keep track. Those are the two reality TV show daughters. Their mother's a real housewife,0.99
01:29:08.140and we watched them go through, you know, what appeared to be a lot of plastic surgery on their
01:29:12.560way toward becoming supermodels. They're Kardashian-esque, these two girls, Bella and
01:29:17.700the other one, Gigi, whatever. They landed the plane. Things are going well for them. Congrats.
01:29:25.280And then we saw something called the fantasy bra. Now you probably don't know anything about the
01:29:30.440fantasy bra because you're a normal person leading your life like yours truly. But I saw this buzz0.91
01:29:35.780about it online and I took a deep dive into what the hell this thing is. Well, it's basically
01:29:42.620something Kelly Clarkson is two days away from demanding she own. It is a $50 million creation
01:29:50.000by Jacob Arabo of Jake and Co. featuring a 75-carat vivid yellow diamond amid 4,410
01:30:01.000white diamonds. And it's stunning. It's like a bustier made out of diamonds. And to wear it,
01:30:08.600I'll show it to you in one second, not yet. But to wear it, you normally have to be the biggest name at the Victoria's Secret fashion show. Years ago, it was Tyra Banks, Heidi Klum, Giselle was the one who really made it famous. And since then, it's been like household names in the modeling world who have worn the so-called fantasy bra.
01:30:33.580This year, there was a question of who would wear it.
01:30:36.280And people were excited to find out.0.98
01:30:38.020Claudia Schiffer, one of the original supermodels.
01:30:40.780And there was quite a bit of consternation when it turned out the person with the honor was Kylie Jenner.
01:30:53.040Kylie Jenner came out with the angel wings and the fantasy bra.
01:30:58.420And the fantasy body and face because none of that is real.
01:31:02.380I mean, none of this is real. We saw Kylie Jenner grow up. I'm sorry, but like not at the top of the most attractive on the list of Kardashian Jenners and like the lips. She really had none when she was a child.
01:31:17.280Now they are Angelina Jolie-esque in size, as are the breasts, as is the bottom.0.61
01:31:25.040And Timothee Chalamet, her obviously gay boyfriend, was sitting in the front row.0.90
01:31:32.200You know, I don't know that he's gay, but he's a feat.0.99
01:32:07.700And now she's got a strut out there in the bra.
01:32:11.420A lot of people were melting down about this online, like genuinely pissed off that they continue to have her shoved down our throats and we're supposed to celebrate her as something close to a supermodel.
01:32:25.120Now, I will say at least she's a woman, which is more than I can say for Alex Consani, who walked the runway as well at the Victoria Fashion Show.
01:32:38.860You might be confused if you saw Alex because he very much looks like a woman, but he's not.
01:32:45.100This is a man, of course, he has legs from here to eternity, because a lot of men have a natural height advantage over actual women, and they do grow to be 6'3", something like that, with legs that look like a California redwood.0.82
01:33:03.160In his case, not only are they incredibly long, but they are incredibly lean, because men also do not have the natural distribution of body fat on their inner thighs and bottoms the way women do.0.58
01:33:13.780And there was something that stood out about that so-called angel because the best ones do have curves.
01:33:21.840That's actually something that Victoria's Secret has prided itself on and not picking the most lean, obscene models over the years, but getting ones that do have some natural body fat, which men like.1.00
01:33:38.860If you look at all the surveys, they say that they like somebody who's a little bit more full-bodied, frankly, like Kylie Jenner, but an actual star or an actual model, you know, somebody who hadn't just gotten ahead thanks to their mother's nonstop pimping out of them and their family members.
01:33:54.840Anyway, so this is a man who wants you to know that he, quote, never wants to be seen as a trans woman.
01:34:02.640He, quote, wants to be seen as a woman.0.93
01:34:08.260You see, you're not allowed to refer to him as he or as a trans person, but as an actual woman, because he feels diminished when you point out that he's actually a man.
01:34:19.400But I remember the day when the Victoria's Secret brand and fashion shows were for actual women, trying to market to actual women, and I miss them.
01:34:31.740Now, not to be outdone by the nonsense that was parading online around this thing, the New York Times felt the need to weigh in.
01:34:38.100And their fashion critic, Vanessa Friedman, had thoughts on what we saw, writing about how the angels were revealing just how much we have reverted to pre-Me Too definitions of sexy and how little change has actually occurred despite all of the soul searching and existential crises of the early 2020s about how a brand that put women on display like dream dolls of the bedroom may have contributed to a culture.
01:40:45.440as contributing to what happened at Cornell University,1.00
01:40:49.200that it would be so boneheaded to do this
01:40:51.140in the wake of what's happening at Cornell,
01:40:52.280Which leads me back to point one. It doesn't matter what the Victoria's Secret models are wearing. It doesn't matter what Jane Doe was wearing. If she were, in fact, sexually assaulted, it had nothing to do with that, Vanessa.0.99
01:41:06.760And we shouldn't be chastising women who want to look or feel sexy, who wind up as victims, which she may not realize she's doing, but she's doing.
01:41:15.680However, the Jane Doe alleged gang rape was nothing of the sort.0.96
01:41:19.820She had a gang bang that she was only too happy to join in with actual affirmative out loud yeses because that seemed to be her preference.
01:41:30.420And it didn't happen because of anything Jane Doe was wearing.
01:41:33.380No one even knows what she was wearing.
01:41:34.880I haven't seen that in any of the materials discussed around this case.
01:41:39.240It happened because she thought that attitudes around sex and sexuality are changing.0.99
01:41:45.680And I'm just super open-minded and, unfortunately, a slut, teehee, as she told her sorority sister.0.99
01:41:54.560So once again, the left wing misses the mark.0.98
01:41:57.900This is their chief fashion critic.0.98
01:41:59.700This is like the woman whose pen they pay the most for when it comes to interpreting fashion.
