Omar: Somali Fraud is TRUMP'S Fault

Omar tries to shift blame to Donald Trump for the MEALS program her Somali homies looted.
Fox News Politics@foxnewspoliticsFIRST ON FOX: Rep. Ilhan Omar breaks silence on Minnesota's Feeding Our Future fraud scandal, denying any knowledge of the scheme — then pointing the finger at Trump's USDA for setting the program's regulatory framework.
The Minnesota House committee tried to subpoena her. Democrats blocked it. The committee's final report says Omar's MEALS Act 'took the guardrails off' federal nutrition programs, making it nearly impossible to verify if children were actually being fed.
Hundreds of millions in taxpayer dollars stolen. Omar calls it 'reprehensible.' Critics call her explanation 'revisionist history.'
Here is what Ilhan Omar had to say:
"Any claim that I had knowledge of this scheme is flat-out false,"
"The MEALS Act was signed into law by President Trump and passed with bipartisan support as part of a broader legislative package. Trump's USDA Secretary set the regulatory framework during the rollout of the program. I have always championed feeding kids and will continue to ensure our children do not go hungry."
And yet she refused to testify and Democrats blocked any subpoena. If she really has no connection to this (and the record shows a lot of communication between her office and the directors of the program) she would welcome the chance to testify. Hiding is the act of the guilty.
