Rep. Ilhan Omar is back in the news, but not for bashing Israel or her supporters.
It led to massive heartburn within the House Democratic caucus, which refused to pass a non-binding resolution that outright condemned anti-Semitism because more than a few Democrats didn't want to single Omar out.
The Minneapolis Star-Tribune editorial board is growing tired of the constant controversies surrounding freshman lawmaker Rep. Ilhan Omar.
The Campaign Finance Board found Omar had filed a joint tax return with a man when she was legally married to another at the time.
The editorial board said Omar owed her constituents better, given her status as one of the Democratic Congress's most visible new members.
"It's not known whether she benefited materially by filing jointly. That is something that voters, who are obliged to follow tax laws no matter how painful, are entitled to know," wrote the board, adding that-shocker-you cannot file a joint marriage tax form ifyou're not married to the other party.
Omar claims she had married "In faith" and divorced her first husband "In faith"; the Star Tribune lays it all out there.
