WATCH: Ilhan Omar Chuckles Nervously When Asked if She Married Her Brother, Says “Not to My Knowledge”

Rep. Ilhan Omar gave a weird response when asked if she married her brother in an interview on Wednesday, suggesting she’s unsure of the answer in an awkward, apparent attempt at sarcasm. 

This comes as feds have obtained Omar’s DNA, which could be used to prove that she married her brother to commit immigration fraud. However, the probe appears to be focused on Ilhan Omar’s own fraudulent naturalization and other crimes involving her finances.

During an interview with MS Now’s Chris Hayes on Wednesday, her first since the raid on her Washington, DC, home last Monday, the two spoke about Omar’s marriage to her biological brother, Ahmed Nur Said Elmi. The claim was first reported by a Somali website called Somalispot.

“Who was this man that was your husband? When did they start saying that he was your brother? Why?” Hayes asked.

Omar appeared nervous while laughing and said, “It started with the Somali blog that I don’t know if it still exists, but somebody put him there that, you know, that he had to have been my brother or something to that effect, and right-wing conspiracy theorists in Minneapolis got a hold of it.”

She continued, “And they just kind of went and like found random people who were like, she introduced us, you know, ‘she introduced him to us and said he was her brother,’ which is, you know, insane. I mean, I don’t, I don’t know those people that they talk about.”

Hayes then asked, “You were not related to him at all? There’s not some weird kernel of truth?”

And Ilhan Omar awkwardly responded, “Not to my knowledge.”

WATCH:

As The Gateway Pundit reported, the criminal fraud investigation into Omar is still ongoing, and the Department of Justice revealed in a recent court filing that their extensive search warrant has not yet been fully executed.

The court filing also reveals that Omar is identified in the search warrant as “Ilhan Nur Said Elmi,” the name of her brother-husband, Ahmed Nur Said Elmi.
