However, she has been awfully quiet lately

[u/max_intense → u/StedeBonnet1]

LOL

[u/Ive_Got_Sowell → u/StedeBonnet1]

After the apple cider incident got called out for the farce that it was

[u/Thatsayesfirsir → u/StedeBonnet1]

Haha 😄

[u/Academic_Court_47]

Who is trying to "silence her"? It's a criminal investigation 🤣

[u/decoy777 → u/Academic_Court_47]

If she was smart(which we know she isn't) her lawyers should be telling her to be silent and she should listen...I doubt she will.

[u/margacolada]

We don’t want you silenced, we want you deported.

[u/Eagle_1776 → u/margacolada]

well.....

[u/Cool_Cartographer_39]

Great. So tell us how your husband's income went from $30M to $200... that's your 3rd or 4th husband, not your brother, right?...

[u/Blahblahnownow → u/Cool_Cartographer_39]

Oh then all of a sudden it shrunk. Newsome also has a winery, I think they copied a thing or two 

[u/Ohyourglob]

By all means, please keep yapping. The more she talks, the higher the chance that she says something even more incriminating.

[u/Jonathan-Strang3 → u/Ohyourglob]

She knows nothing will happen to her.

[u/Bluuphish]

Funny when the Biden Administration raided Trumps home it wasn't an issue? But now....?

[u/MeLlamoKilo]

Remember when the left was constantly in favor of those early morning raids? When it was people surrounding trump they cheered... now they are up in arms claiming political warfare.

These people are insane. 

[u/RotoDog]

You have the right to remain silent ya know…most lawyers recommend it

[u/Szorja → u/RotoDog]

Hey, don’t give her any helpful tips lol.

[u/Devenue024 → u/Szorja]

“Never interrupt your opponent when they’re making a mistake.”

[u/imabetaunit]

I don’t care what she blabs on about as long as she does it from Somalia.

[u/x5060 → u/imabetaunit]

I don’t care what she blabs on about as long as she does it from Somalia. From the bottom of a coal mine while she pays back every penny of fraud she supported.

Fixed it.

[u/imabetaunit → u/x5060]

I have accepted all of your suggested revisions.

[u/JTuck333]

If she didn’t marry her brother, we’re going to look really bad.

If she did marry her brother (she did), the left won’t care. No way they actually say, “that’s immigration fraud and should be removed.” Those in favor of open borders don’t care about immigration fraud.

[u/Slopadopoulos → u/JTuck333]

If you think this is about marrying her brother, stand by. You're in for a big surprise.

[u/decoy777 → u/Slopadopoulos]

It's the fraud and lying on her immigration status. That's criminal part. We prove she lied she gets it removed she gets deported. We all win.

[u/Slopadopoulos → u/decoy777]

I think it's more than that. DHS doesn't move on someone just for lying on an immigration form.

[u/Vektor0 → u/JTuck333]

If she didn’t marry her brother, we’re going to look really bad.

Who's "we"? This isn't going to look bad on me, I didn't do anything.

Besides, no normal person understands or cares about this either way. Of the hyper-radicals who do care, they'll forget about it in a week when they move on to the next outrage.

[u/BH11B → u/Vektor0]

Saying no one cares is just not true. Anyone outside of die hard leftists if you told them a somali married their brother and committed immigration fraud would have an issue with that. Most would like to see them deported some won’t care either way.

[u/Vektor0 → u/BH11B]

Yes, they "would have an issue with that" and then promptly go about their day and forget about it. That is not caring.

[u/BH11B → u/Vektor0]

9/11 happened and people went back to work and played baseball and everything else that doesn’t mean they didn’t care.

[u/Vektor0 → u/BH11B]

I didn't say that "caring" means the world comes to a stop.

[u/gatorsfan5192 → u/Vektor0]

Brother, you should care. She's an elected representative, and she shouldn't even be a US Citizen to begin with.

[u/Vektor0 → u/gatorsfan5192]

Of course I care. I said pretty much no one else does, so I don't have to worry about how this "looks" to anyone else.

[u/gatorsfan5192 → u/Vektor0]

Ah, I suppose I inferred you were saying you were a "normal" person.

You're right, I agree. I wish Americans would wake the fuck up.

[u/jimmy4889]

I don't know why she's so upset. Some people did something. It's not that big of a deal.

[u/otters4everyone]

Because she's always getting silenced. Yeah. Okay.

[u/Quirky_Chicken_1840]

She is learing a lesson

[u/Daniel_Day_Hubris]

Literally no one is trying to silence her.

[u/waidred]

Anyone who wants to silence her can just ask her why she married her brother

[u/DesertDouche]

As much as I don't like saying this, this'll ultimately be a big, fat nothing burger.

Edit to clarify: I'm not saying she didn't do it. By the looks of things, there's strong evidence she did commit immigration fraud. That being said, I have little to no faith Trump's DOJ will actually follow through. This just feels like a distraction. Call me jaded but we've waited two years for Trump to hold the treasonous left and the Epstein pedos accountable.

[u/AgentDaveKujan → u/DesertDouche]

Nope, its not a nothing burger. The stuff regarding her brother is past the statute of limitations so there’s obviously some other big fraud in play here. If federal magistrate judges in both Minnesota and D.C., who are very likely liberals, approved search warrants in both places, then the probable cause statements in those warrant affidavits are probably pretty solid.

[u/scully360]

You have the right to remain silent. I suggest you use it.

[u/A_Hatless_Casual]

Hopefully they can help this poor refugee and many like her in returning to to the promised land of bananas and rice.

[u/HazySkyFire]

Talk all you want. Nobody gives a shit what she says. That’s not what’s at hand here.

[u/NeverEverMaybe0_0]

Has anything been said about this raid from the DOJ yet? I assumed that it was part of the investigation into her housemate.

[u/Hectoriu]

That's unfortunate

[u/Uller85]

Never prevent dumb people from speaking.

[u/Hoppie1064]

No-one can you from Somalia.

[u/Ask4MD]

Some people did something. Was she silenced when she did deserve to?

[u/Im_A_Real_Boy1]

I think she’s confusing being silenced politically and people just wanting her to STFU

[u/Tough_guy22 → u/Im_A_Real_Boy1]

She should have been silenced politically back when she committed campaign fiance fraud. Now she should be facing the full wrath of the criminal justice system.

[u/Aronacus]

Mrs. "SOME PEOPLE DID SOMETHING AND THE REST OF US LOST OUR RIGHTS!"

[When discussing 9/11]

With the tone of someone discussing a friend dine and dashing

[u/grove_doubter]

Ilhan Omar says she will ‘not be silenced’

We’ll see.
