Comer Suggests Subpoena As Questions Swirl Around Ilhan Omar’s Family Wealth

In 2025, Omar public ly denied claims that she was worth millions of dollars and accused conservatives of unfairly targeting her, according to Breitbart News.

Comer said the timeline surrounding Mynett’s financial gains raises significant questions.

“There are a lot of questions as to how her husband accumulated so much wealth over the past two years,” Comer told the Post. “It’s not possible. It’s not. I’m a money guy. It’s not possible.”

Speaking separately to investigative journalist Catherine Herridge, Comer said Omar’s reported net worth “just out of nowhere skyrocketed.”

He said congressional investigators believe the increase is tied to two investment funds operated by Mynett.

 

“We have a lot of questions about where the money came from, how do you make that much in fees in a short period of time,” Comer said.

The New York Post also cited a law enforcement source who said investigators are examining whether any elected officials may have ties to Minnesota’s broader fraud scandals.

Minnesota has been under intense scrutiny following multiple cases involving alleged abuse of taxpayer funded welfare and aid programs.

According to Breitbart News, the state’s fraud cases total more than $1 billion in stolen public funds.
