House Oversight Weighs Subpoena of Ilhan Omar’s Husband as Questions Mount Over Family Wealth

Comer says committee lawyers are evaluating compelling Tim Mynett’s testimony over a sudden valuation surge in firms listed on Omar’s 2024 disclosure.

Overview

  • Rep. James Comer told the New York Post the Oversight Committee is considering subpoenaing Tim Mynett as part of its inquiry into Omar’s reported wealth jump.
  • Federal law‑enforcement sources quoted by the Post said investigators are examining politicians potentially connected to Minnesota social‑services fraud estimated at up to $9 billion over several years.
  • Omar publicly rejected any suggestion of complicity and rebuked a reporter who asked about the scandal after a recent Oversight hearing.
  • Court records cited by the Post show Rose Lake Capital had $42.44 in its bank account in late 2022, while Omar’s 2024 filing valued spouse‑linked assets at up to tens of millions.
  • Reporting notes Rose Lake scrubbed advisor listings and deactivated LinkedIn pages as questions persisted about regulatory disclosures and claims of prior assets under management.
