US Congresswoman Ilhan Omar was recruited by a foreign government, passed sensitive information that was relayed to Iran, and received funding by a foreign government, according to a sworn deposition by a Canadian businessman in a Florida court.

In explosive testimony made by video link from Toronto, Canada to a Florida District Court on October 23, Kuwaiti-born Alan Bender claims to have deep ties with governments and royal officials across the Middle East including Qatar. In his statement, he says he met Qatar’s Secretary to the Emir for Security Affairs Mohammad bin Ahmed bin Abdullah al-Masnad and two other senior Qatari officials.

The three allegedly claimed credit for the meteoric rise of Omar, saying: “If it wasn't for our cash, Ilhan Omar would be just another black Somali refugee in America collecting welfare and serving tables on weekends,” according to Bender’s sworn deposition. The deposition was obtained by Al Arabiya English and authenticated by the attorney for the plaintiffs.

1. I think its a bunch of

monumental bullshit

2. the court case being funded by judical watch

plus a witness from Canada and then the quatari citizens who are not even in the USA but manage to have a court case in Florida from a country that is under the influences of Jared Kushner just doesn't pass the smell test

IMO

3. "just another black Somali refugee in America collecting welfare and serving tables on weekends"

Gee, that sure underscores the sincerity and objectivity of the claim. Are we sure she isn't also one of those people absconded by aliens to fight in their intergalactic army only to be returned 20 years later after time regression?

4. I think it was Justice Democrats that got her into politics

The rest she did on her own.

I'm saying I agree with you in case I'm not clear.

5. Sounds legit

Would Mr. Bender care to make those statements under oath on U.S. soil?
