Vice President JD Vance conducted a briefing from the White House Press Room, and it registered nary a blip with the Elitist Media evening news. And it wasn’t for lack of newsworthy items. One very newsworthy statement was the target of a media blackout.
Watch as The Daily Caller’s Reagan Reese asks Vance about a potential indictment of U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) over immigration fraud, with Vance saying that this is something “the Department of Justice is looking at right now:”
IN a surprise to no one, none of the none of evening news reported that Rep. Ilhan Omar may be under investigation for potential immigration fraud;

REAGAN REESE: I want to ask you about the anti-fraud task force. You previously mentioned that Ilhan Omar seemed to have committed immigration fraud. Are- do you anticipate an indictment against her, an indictment related to that situation?
JD VANCE: Yeah, so- so Reagan, I don't want to prejudge an investigation. I mean, you read the things about Ilhan Omar and about, you know, who she married and whether she didn't marry this person or that person. It certainly seems like something fishy is there. But everybody's entitled to equal justice under the laws. So we're going to investigate it. We're going to take a look at it. If we think that there's a crime, we’re gonna prosecute that crime. And that’s something the Department of Justice is looking at right now.
Per The New York Post:
The Minnesota Democrat has married three times, but her second husband, a UK citizen named Ahmed Nur Said Elmi, has been identified in several reports over the past decade as a possible sibling.
Elmi and Omar, a Muslim, were wedded in February 2009 as part of a Christian ceremony in Eden Prairie, Minn., according to a Hennepin County marriage certificate previously obtained by The Post. The couple divorced in December 2017.
The congresswoman has rarely spoken of the relationship, except to note that it was brief and claim the two were frequently separated except for a two-year stretch between 2009 and 2011.
There’s no record of the couple having children.
This potential fraud went as uncovered as the Minnesota fraud, and the Ohio fraud. It seems that the Elitist Media have a huge problem covering fraud if it affects one of their media darlings.
What did the Elitist Media cover instead? The networks went all in on the tragic death of a New York woman who fell into an open manhole. ABC covered the imminent closure of Schlitz Beer. CBS covered a bear trying to crash a family dinner in the Smoky Mountains. And NBC devoted time to Vladimir Putin’s visit to China.
Given these circumstances, there was absolutely zero time to cover the Omar investigation. Rest assured, though: if Omar were a Republican, there would be ample time to discuss those charges. Reasonable people may conclude that the coverage is just (D)ifferent.
