Miami Launches Biometric Technology to Speed ​​Up Security Checks During Peak Season

 

A group of Republican lawmakers has formally requested that the Department of Justice (DOJ) open an investigation into Democratic Representative Ilhan Omar, following the release of records that they claim provide evidence that the congresswoman married her own brother as part of an alleged immigration fraud scheme.

The documents, recently released in conservative media, have revived accusations that have been circulating for years surrounding the Minnesota congresswoman, one of the first Muslim women to serve in the US Congress. According to her critics, the alleged marriage to a relative was intended to facilitate Omar's stay in the United States and, subsequently, her naturalization process.

Republicans are calling for the revocation of the congresswoman's U.S. citizenship if the allegations are proven. However, to date, there is no conclusive evidence in judicial proceedings to support these accusations, and Omar herself has repeatedly denied the claims, calling them political attacks and disinformation campaigns motivated by her critical stance toward U.S. foreign policy and her advocacy for progressive causes.

The Department of Justice has not commented on the request. Analysts note that, although the accusations have gained visibility in political and media circles, opening a formal investigation would require verifiable evidence and not just records disseminated on partisan platforms.
