Ilhan Omar called out for not attending Minnesota fraud hearing while sitting right across the hall for a “Black Caucus Lunch”

Our reporter,
@alisonintheknow
, questioned Chairman
@RepJamesComer
on growing reports that members of Congress may be personally benefiting from daycare and health care funds funneled through PACs - part of the widening Minnesota fraud scandal.

“Any member of Congress getting money unethically, I don’t care if they’re a Republican or Democrat - should be held accountable. That’s what the Ethics Committee is for,” Comer said.

When asked specifically about Rep.
@Ilhan
Omar, Comer confirmed she is “at the top of the suspect list.”

“She had the opportunity to come in here today. This is a hearing about Somali fraud. If there was something about Kentucky, I’d be there,” he said - while our reporter pointed out that
@IlhanMN
was just across the hall at the Black Caucus lunch.

Comer added that ethics complaints against Omar are forthcoming, and encouraged the press to ask her directly why she skipped the hearing.
