Ilhan Omar's husband, political consultant Tim Mynett, was seen leaving their Washington, D.C., home multiple times this week as a federal Homeland Security Investigations fraud probe pressed ahead amid scrutiny of the congresswoman's immigration paperwork and financial disclosures.
Tim Mynett, the husband of Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), was seen leaving the couple's rented Washington, D.C., home on Wednesday to walk their dog, take out trash and escort a staff member, as the family continued to deal with the fallout of a federal raid. The sightings came after Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) conducted an early-week raid on the home as part of a criminal fraud investigation into Omar's immigration documentation.
During a walk with the dog, Mynett was asked about rumors that the congresswoman had left the country. He told Fox News Digital, "You guys are annoying the hell out of all the neighbors around here, man," and later said he had "no concerns" about the federal inquiry.
"My wife came here when she was 12 years old as a child war refugee. No concerns," Mynett told Fox News Digital.
The raid reportedly resulted in the seizure of Omar's cellphone and passport. Investigators are also examining an earlier adjustment of Omar's birth year in Minnesota legislative records, which affected the timing of her naturalization.
Separately, U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro announced that her office is reviewing Omar's 2024 financial disclosure, which listed the couple's net worth at up to $30 million before being amended. The amendment reduced the reported values of Tim Mynett's interests in a winery and a venture-capital advisory firm to zero, with the office stating the original filing reflected total equity rather than his personal ownership.
President Donald Trump has publicly attacked Omar's net worth and alleged possible fraud in her financial disclosures on his social-media platform, drawing even more attention to an already politically charged investigation.
