Chris Hayes asked Ilhan Omar directly if the man she married was her brother and her answer was clear. But the interview took an even more interesting turn when they discussed the investigation into her family.
Omar called the allegation a “disgusting lie” and explained how the claim started with a Somali blog before right-wing conspiracy theorists picked it up.
But Hayes then raised another issue: the investigation had seemingly shifted from her marriage to questions about her late father’s naturalization paperwork.
Omar said the shift was “very convenient” because her father was no longer alive to answer the allegations.
Then Hayes brought up claims about her wealth and her husband’s business, leading Omar to interrupt with a response that caught his attention.
Chris Hayes: The President will casually say something wild about you, like, “Ilhan Omar, she married her brother.” There are right-wing people who believe this man was your brother. Who was this man that was your husband? When did they start saying he was your brother? Why?
Ilhan Omar: It started with a Somali blog. Somebody put in there that he had to have been my brother. Right-wing conspiracy theorists in Minneapolis got a hold of it, and they just kind of found random people who were like, “She introduced us and said he was her brother,” which is insane.
Chris Hayes: You were not related to him at all?
Ilhan Omar: Not at all.
Chris Hayes: That was the big gotcha, right? That was the source of the immigration fraud. That no longer seems to be the issue they are investigating, right? They’ve now moved on to whatever representations your father made in his naturalization process about you.
Ilhan Omar: So, it’s hilarious. But it’s also very convenient because my dad is no longer alive.
Chris Hayes: Because the person who signed the paperwork and did it all is no longer here to answer the charges.
Ilhan Omar: Right, even though they have the papers that he signed. The people who knocked on my door searching for papers literally have his papers. They are the ones who processed us to come to the United States.
Chris Hayes: The President has also said that you have all this money, that you drive a lot of cars, and you have a bunch of houses. They cited a financial disclosure that initially said your husband’s firm was worth $30 million. After an accountant included the liabilities, that brought it down to essentially net zero, $20,000.
Ilhan Omar: He’s not in it anymore!
Iran is preparing its women for possible military operations, and the training footage is raising serious questions about what Tehran expects next.
Women are being trained to handle rifles, machine guns and mortars, while also practising rappelling, zip-lining and other tactical exercises.
The programme is part of Iran’s nationwide Janfada campaign, which reportedly involves 33 million volunteers.
This comes as tensions with Washington continue to rise, with Iran saying there are no talks and the US warning that pressure will increase.
Is Iran preparing its citizens for a possible war, or sending a warning to the rest of the world?
Narrator: Iran is reportedly training women for military operations amid fears of possible US attacks as tensions between Tehran and Washington continue.
A fourth training center for female volunteers has opened in Tehran as part of the nationwide Janfada, or “self-sacrificing,” campaign.
Footage shows women handling rifles, machine guns and mortars, while practising zip-lining, rappelling and other tactical exercises.
The campaign combines military training with emergency relief and logistical support, as Iran prepares civilians for potential threats.
Iran says there are no talks with Washington, while US Secretary of State Marco Rubio says the pressure will only grow.
With 33 million volunteers reportedly involved, one question remains: Is Iran preparing for war, or warning the world that it’s ready?

A US Army soldier had to remind Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and his group to remain silent and respectful at one of America’s most sacred military memorials.
The moment happened at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier on Veterans Day.
After posing for photos with his wife and senior advisers, laughter and conversation from the group prompted a sentinel to issue a firm reminder:
“All visitors will maintain an atmosphere of silence and respect at all times!”
The incident has raised questions about why a group visiting such a solemn memorial needed to be reminded of basic respect.
Kasie Hunt: President Donald Trump placed a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. But shortly afterward, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth returned to the tomb to pose for photos with his wife and senior advisers.
As the group talked and laughed, a US Army Sentinel announced:
US Army Sentinel: All visitors will maintain an atmosphere of silence and respect at all times!
Kasie Hunt: What you just heard was the Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, and the people he was with laughing, resulting in a reprimand from the US Army Sentinel at one of our nation’s most sacred sites.
They were talking, taking photos and laughing on Veterans Day.
Pentagon Spokesman: The Secretary and the entire Department have always honored and will always honor the sacrifices our military men and women have made to keep America safe. A soldier correctly and respectfully reminded everyone to maintain decorum.

A Ring camera caught two women making offensive gestures at a Black student’s apartment door but what happened when the students confronted them made the situation even more uncomfortable.
Ole Miss freshman Jakyia Medcaf says she and her roommate went outside to demand an explanation.
One woman apologized, claiming they had done it to several doors. But according to the roommates, the second woman continued making the gestures even as the apology was being given.
The incident later prompted a public apology from Elena Kunz, who admitted her actions were insensitive, inappropriate and deeply harmful.
Anchor: Jakyia Medcaf, a freshman at Ole Miss, says she was in her apartment when she saw a video on her Ring camera.
Interviewer: What did you do?
Jakyia Medcaf: We went outside and tried to approach them and get them to explain why they did that. One girl was apologizing, saying, “I’m sorry, we did that to like four doors. We didn’t mean any harm.”
Victoria Johnson: She continued to make the gestures after the girl was apologizing. It was like a slap in the face.
Jakyia Medcaf: I told them they shouldn’t go around doing that, even if they did it to other people’s doors, because it’s very disrespectful.
Anchor: Elena Kunz later issued a public apology, saying, “I recognize my actions were insensitive, inappropriate, and deeply harmful.”
“I’d rather the police brutality happen to me than to the children.”
Bally Bagayoko makes a powerful statement as he recounts what happened when he joined a group of high school students protesting in France.
He says police officers began charging towards the demonstrators, and he tried to stop them. During the confrontation, he was hit with tear gas and had to be pulled out of the line.
But his message goes beyond the incident.
He says young people have a right to stand up for issues that concern them, as long as they demonstrate peacefully.
Bally Bagayoko: I prefer that police brutality or a blunder happen to me rather than to children.
We arrived after walking from Place de la République to Nation with a group of high school students.
Then we saw a large line of national police officers who began to charge.
My first instinct was to do everything to stop it. At one point, I was pulled out of the line because I was hit with tear gas.
The high school students’ demands are not new.
What’s being built is good for democracy, provided young people take ownership of the issues that concern them and demonstrate peacefully.
A Canadian commentator is questioning why millions of taxpayer dollars are being spent on projects overseas while businesses and jobs are disappearing at home.
She points to $174,000 allocated for inclusive housing projects across Pacific island nations and a reported $206 million investment in a green port in Benin, Africa.
But what really sparked her anger was Marc Miller saying the government wants to make sure taxpayers’ money is being used properly.
She isn’t buying it. And she has a chart of government spending she says raises even more questions.
Where is Canada’s money going, and who is benefiting?
Host: There we have companies and people’s jobs disappearing overnight, but you want to tell Canadian stories to keep the propaganda going so newcomers get indoctrinated to vote for Mark Carney. We know what you’re doing.
Marc Miller: I just want to make sure, precisely because I worry about taxpayers that support this government, that we are making sure we’re using those funds properly.
Host: Oh, please! You guys have wasted so much money. I have an entire chart of your wasteful spending, organized and categorized by where our money is going.
Just picking something randomly, we have $174,000 for inclusive housing in the Pacific, sent to Fiji, Tonga, Samoa and Vanuatu.
And then you see Carney investing $206 million in a green port in Benin, Africa. We can’t audit how that money’s being spent.
And then this clown has the audacity to go on national television and say that he worries about spending Canadians’ money properly. Get real.
There's a 30-day post-birth tradition in Chinese culture called (zuò yuè zi), and every modern mother needs to know about it.
It literally translates to "sitting the month."
For 30 straight days after giving birth, the mother is banned from cooking, cleaning, lifting, or running errands.
In-laws move in.
Grandparents cook endless nutrient-dense broths.
The husband takes over 100% of the household chores.
If the family can't be there, they hire a full-time professional postpartum caregiver.
Western culture tells new moms to bounce back in two weeks.
Chinese culture locks the door and forces you to rest for a full month.

A woman says she first met comedian David Walliams when she was just 15.
Two years later, she claims they were having sex.
A joint investigation by The Guardian and ITV News has uncovered serious allegations against the comedian, including claims of grooming young women and harassment in the workplace.
Walliams strongly denies the allegations.
The controversy has also led to legal action, with his lawyers going to court to stop further reports from being published.
What exactly has been alleged, and how did this controversy unfold?
David Sillito: David Walliams strongly denied allegations of inappropriate behaviour and harassment towards junior female employees, but media interest continued to grow.
With his publisher severing ties, it was announced that his books would no longer be published. His lawyers went to court to stop further stories from being published. The court was told he had suffered a breakdown and attempted to take his own life.
Lizo Mzimba: According to a joint investigation by The Guardian and ITV News, Walliams has been accused of grooming young women, some from the age of 15, as well as harassing women and teenagers in the workplace. He denies the allegations.
One woman, Alex, said she met him at a fan event when she was just 15. She had given him some of her comedy scripts, which included her contact details.
She says he later called her, and over the next two years they spoke on the phone and exchanged emails. By the time she was 17, she says they were having sex.
How did we arrive at a world where a single dose of medicine costs $4.25 million?!
Most people get tight over a $300 inhaler.
Meanwhile, the top 5 most expensive drugs Lenmeldy, Hemgenix, Elevidys, Skysona, and Zolgensma all cost between $2.1M and $4.25M per treatment.
Modern medicine can finally rewrite defective human DNA.
The only catch is you need millions in the bank just to afford the cure.
I'm sitting at my desk, staring at a January sticky note on my monitor that says "$100,000 target."
Thit refresh on the trading dashboard.
Red numbers everywhere.
I pull out a calculator, do the math twice, and realize I now need $150,000 just to touch my original goal.
At this point, my portfolio isn't an investment it's a charity donation to the market.
New York City's average rent just hit $4,500 a month, but the city will literally pay for your stay under one condition:
You agree to take a short-term municipal housing placement or voucher program.
State emergency programs are now putting up thousands of residents in city-funded units, hotels, and shelters completely free of charge.
While regular renters spend 70% of their income just to survive in Manhattan...
The city is quietly spending billions to host people for $0.
Trump is standing by Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang despite serious allegations surrounding his relationship with a suspected Chinese spy.
When asked whether he regretted ignoring intelligence about the allegations, Trump dismissed the idea, calling Huang an honourable man who has done an amazing job for America.
But the controversy is growing, with lawmakers from both parties calling for investigations.
Why is Trump defending Huang, and what could this mean for Nvidia
Reporter: Have you spoken to Jensen Huang today?
Donald Trump: I have not spoken to him about it. I just know he’s a fine person, but you never know what is going on.
I think he’s an honorable guy. He probably has an excuse for it.
He’s done an amazing job for our country.
Reporter: In hindsight, do you wish you had acted on the intelligence when you were briefed about the spy allegation?
Donald Trump: No, I don’t think so. You have to hear it. You can’t do that with people.
Ari Hawkins, Politico Reporter: In a staff memo, Jensen Huang confirmed he was unfaithful during his marriage.
Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have called for investigations, and this is likely to become a major focus of Democrats in the next Congress.
After 40+ years of marriage, Nvidia's CEO is caught in a massive scandal and it has nothing to do with wall street.
He reportedly cheated on his wife.
The woman he allegedly had an affair with is currently under federal investigation for being a Chinese spy.
Her assignment: get close to the CEO, gain access, and smuggle restricted Nvidia AI chips straight to Beijing.
He didn't just break a four decade marriage he managed to turn a personal affair into a full blown national security crisis.
Trump says Air Force pilots have told him things about UFOs that are difficult to explain and his response to claims of a secret government programme raises even more questions.
He revealed that some experienced F-22 pilots described seeing a mysterious round object flying past them at three times their aircraft’s speed.
But when asked whether a secret UFO investigation programme exists without the president’s knowledge, Trump had a surprising response:
“If there is, I’m going to find out about it.”
So what exactly have these pilots seen, and could the government be hiding something
Interviewer: You’ve released a lot of footage of UFOs. Have you seen or heard anything that suggests there’s more going on than just unidentified objects in the sky?
Donald Trump: I’m not too much of a believer, but I’ve met with Air Force pilots who are the real deal. They’ve told me some very strange things.
They described flying an F-22 when something round, not aerodynamic, flew past them at three times their speed. So that’s the mystery.
Interviewer: Some whistleblowers claim there’s a secret program to study UFOs that even presidents don’t know about. Have you seen any evidence of that?
Donald Trump: No, and I haven’t heard that, but if there is, I’m going to find out about it.
