Obama-era investigators opened a probe into Ilhan Omar’s marriage in 2016

The FBI and Homeland Security began examining whether Omar’s 2009 marriage to Ahmed Nur Said Elmi was fraudulent, according to reporting cited by Fox News.
A source told Fox News that a U.S. attorney appointed by President Joe Biden shut down the probe in 2021; accounts differ on whether it ended because of the statute of limitations or lack of evidence.
Omar has denied the allegation, calling it a conspiracy theory.
