The mainstream media will tell us that there’s nothing to see here…

Minnesota Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar has paid a whopping $2.7 million to her husband’s consulting company during the election cycle according to new filings reported by the Free Beacon.

The publication reports:

Omar’s campaign filings, released Thursday, show that she sent $1.1 million more to the E Street Group, a political consulting firm owned by her husband, Tim Mynett. The payments account for nearly 70 percent of the $1.6 million Omar’s campaign has disbursed between July 23 and the end of September. They have helped cover advertisements, consulting, travel expenses, and production costs.

As of July, Omar’s campaign was the E Street Group’s biggest customer, according to Open Secrets data reported by the New York Post, “with nearly one in every three of Omar’s campaign dollars going to her alleged lover’s firm as of last August.”

According to the Post, the FEC currently allows lawmakers to hire family members to work on their campaigns, however, many feel the practice should be banned.

Chief ethics lawyer from the George W. Bush administration told the Post, “It should not be allowed. I think it’s a horrible idea to allow it, given the amount of money that goes into these campaigns from special interests.”

Omar married Mynett, who worked for her, earlier this year after just months after the two denied they were having an affair.

The media is bound to ignore this scandalous story just like they’ve ignored the bombshell news of the corrupt Hunter Biden emails.
