President Trump claims Rep. Ilhan Omar may be removed from Congress for allegedly being sworn in under a false name.
Trump stated Omar used "a fake name" during her swearing-in and suggested she must resign immediately. He alleged the Democratic Party has "conceded her seat" and that Omar—whom he referred to as "Ilhan Nur Said Elmi"—has "openly admitted to fraud."
"If you get sworn in with a false name, I would imagine that's pretty tough to remain," Trump said.
No official confirmation from Democratic leadership or Omar's office on any such concession or admission. The claims remain unverified.
