News
Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Unless her dad wrote “dedicated to my loving daughter whom knowingly allowed me to file a fraudulent immigration document on her behalf” then I don’t think it is relevant. From what I have read it’s not even a problem if it was filed while she was 18 provided she had no knowledge of her late father’s actions.
I'm thinking a book might have a publication date or a printing date on it somewhere. There's a remote chance that would provide some loose circumstantial evidence as to ages.
Lack of knowledge might insulate Ilhan from criminal charges. But because she has derived citizenship, she can lose the derivation in a civil process if it is proven that she was really 18. In that case she reverts to her previous status of lawful permanent resident. There's no statute of limitations on the civil side.
If she is found to have never received citizenship, she will probably not be eligible serve as a representative.
(Yes. The immigration laws of this country are fucked up.)
But, like, you can just buy books anytime. I mean I can go into a bookstore right now and buy any book in the place, even the kids section, and not even have to show id. If I go out and get some milk, it isnt even circumstantial evidence that I milked a cow.
I agree. But at this stage they're not trying to get the exhibit admitted into evidence. They really just need to match it against one of the categories of items listed in the search warrant.
(Warrants shall describe the "place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.")
She has also challenged the warrant, trying to get her stuff back. I haven't looked into the details on that.
Beyond the fact that yes, Ilhan Omar was a child herself once upon a time, she has three children of her own.
