One of the questions the mainstream media rarely asks of Democrat politicians is how they get so wealthy while on the government payroll. Their annual salary of $174,000 is, of course, quite generous by anyone’s terms. But many of them, with Nancy Pelosi and her freezer full of gourmet ice cream being one glaring example, have somehow acquired tremendous wealth during their time in DC.
Looks like Fraud Squad member Ilhan Omar has taken the Pelosi wealth-building model to heart by sending millions of dollars to her husband’s consulting firm, E Street Group LLC. That clearly wasn’t enough for Mr. Ilhan Omar, who proceeded to claim several hundred thousand additional dollars in COVID relief.
Let’s not forget that the Pelosi-Omar cabal in DC has held up additional relief measures for months. While everyday Americans are suffering greatly, Democrats are playing politics — and they can because they have fat bank accounts, gourmet ice cream and a media that will never take them to task.
Luckily, we have alternative media sources. Ed Morrissey at Hot Air has the full story.
