This week, the lingering allegations over the marital history of Rep. Ilhan Omar (D., Minn.) took an ominous step when Border Tsar Tom Homan publicly acknowledged that the government is looking into the matter. Rep. Omar has long denied that she married her brother to gain his entry into the United States, but the allegation has continued to rage on the Internet and among her critics. The question is whether this is a substantive case of fraud or defamation.
Homan stated that he was investigating whether Omar committed immigration fraud, but also noted that the statute of limitations has been an issue. In his comment to Newsmax, Homan stated:
“I just got advised by a fraud investigator the other day on that. I asked the question, can we review the files? You know, there was immigration fraud involved. The statute of limitation became an issue in the last four years when this was first brought up…Pulling the records now, pulling the files, and we’re looking at it. But this fraud investigator, who I know personally, one of the best fraud investigators in HSI, Homeland Security Investigations, said there’s no doubt he’d review the file. So, I’m running that down this week as a matter of fact, and we’ll see.”
According to her congressional biography, Omar came to the United States with her family in the 1990s. As I have previously noted, the election of a young immigrant to Congress is genuinely remarkable and commendable.
The questions arose regarding her marriage to Ahmed Elmi in 2009. Elmi was back in the news this week with postings highlighting his lifestyle as a “dirty dandy.” Critics charged that he is actually her brother. The couple divorced in 2017, and no DNA evidence has been offered to support the claim that they are siblings.
President Donald Trump and others have been ratcheting up the rhetoric against Omar and the Somali population in Minnesota. Many of us have objected to some of the attacks on Omar as offensive. As I have previously written, the call for foreign-born U.S. citizens to “go back to their own country” has been made for decades against foreign-born U.S. citizens. However, such attacks are generally protected speech.
The allegation against Rep. Omar is not opinion, but a statement of fact. Many news organizations have referred to the allegation as “debunked” and “unsupported.”
In defamation, truth is a defense. The truth of the matter, however, has never been easy to establish. In fairness to Rep. Omar, a person should not be in a position of having to “prove a negative.” It is not her obligation to prove that she is not a fraud or that she did not marry her brother. Her critics have never produced compelling evidence to support the claim.
Despite years of such statements by various people, Omar has never sued for defamation. It is a curious omission, since a successful lawsuit would dramatically reduce such claims, and even as a public official she could likely show actual malice in many of her critics.
Conversely, such litigation would also expose Omar to a lengthy discovery process regarding her family’s immigration history and related family issues.
I have taught defamation for over three decades, and it is rare for such an allegation to linger without some legal action by the subject. On its face, this would be a strong defamation case if the allegation is false.
The allegation would fall into one of the “per se” categories of defamation. Under the common law, these per se categories of defamation allow for presumed damages and include: (1) disparaging a person’s professional character or standing; (2) alleging a person is unchaste; (3) alleging that a person has committed a criminal act or act of moral turpitude; (4) alleging a person has a sexual or loathsome disease; and (5) attacking a person’s business or professional reputation. The language differs among the states, but the Omar allegation would constitute a criminal act as well as an attack on her character and reputation.
As a threshold matter, Omar would face a higher standard of proof due to her status as a public official. In New York Times v. Sullivan, the Supreme Court established the actual malice standard, requiring public officials to shoulder the higher burden of proving defamation. Under that standard, an official would have to show either actual knowledge of its falsity or a reckless disregard of the truth. That standard was later extended to public figures.
Many critics are calling the “allegations” worthy of investigation. That is certainly protected. However, it is common to see people on television claim that she married her brother as a factual statement.
The publication of DNA results would disprove these allegations. (There are no allegations of an adopted status for the brother).
If such evidence exists, it would not just be conclusive but compelling for a jury. The question is why Omar has not elected to bring such a case, given the vast array of choices of potential defendants within the statute of limitations. It is a target-rich environment for a defamation lawyer.
As for the president, he has continued to raise the allegation: “If I married my sister to get my citizenship, do you think I’d last for about two hours or something less than that? She married her brother to get in. Therefore, she’s here illegally. She should get the hell out.”
However, he would not be a good target for such an action. The Federal Tort Claims Act, 28 U.S.C. § 2680(h), expressly bars libel, slander, or defamation claims against the United States or a federal employee acting within the scope of their employment. It is possible to sue a government employee acting outside of the scope of their employment. However, the Westfall Act protects federal employees from personal lawsuits for torts committed within the scope of their employment and substitutes the U.S. government as the defendant under the FTCA. Since the FTCA bars liability, it works to force dismissal in cases.
Moreover, this is not just another federal employee. The President also has immunity under Article II and prevailing Supreme Court caselaw. In 1982, the Supreme Court handed down Nixon v. Fitzgerald, holding that former President Richard Nixon was immune from civil suits concerning actions within the “outer perimeter” of his official duties. In 1997, the Court ruled in Clinton v. Jones that President Bill Clinton was not immune from a civil suit filed by Paula Jones — who had accused Clinton of sexual harassment — because the case involved unofficial conduct on the part of the president.
This issue is still being litigated in the case of E. Jean Carroll, who won a significant civil award against the President in New York. The United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit rejected the applicability of the 2024 Supreme Court ruling recognizing broad criminal immunity for former presidents as inapplicable to the civil case.
These are statements being made during a presidency and can be claimed as privileged and immune by President Trump.
The same cannot be said for a myriad of pundits and commentators who have stated this allegation as fact. Indeed, as if to drive home the point, today there is an article entitled “Yes, Ilhan Omar Married Her Brother.” You can’t get more clear than that and there is no statute of limitations problem or other legal barrier to a lawsuit. So why has not Omar sued anyone despite books and articles saying that she committed marital and immigration fraud?
In the end, such litigation would come down to truth as a defense. These critics are saying that Omar did marry her brother. Even if they did not have a good-faith basis for the assertion, proof that it was indeed true would still be a complete defense.
On the other hand, a defamation lawsuit could offer a dispositive judgment of a court on this lingering question. The question is now whether Rep. Omar will sue.
What is interesting here are the Elephants in the room.
Why is a Somali Born person who has stated her loyalty is to Somalia in congress to begin with? Easy, to get money and influence to and for Somalia. That’s a no brainer. “Go to America, get into a position of power, get us money…” Folks in the US act like that conversation not only never happened, but could not happen. Now, who got her into that position in the first place after arriving, well, dig.
The other Elephant in the room is “racist” to even mention. Folks have said the collective IQ in Somalia is low, very low, awfully low. And while this is racism racism racism, it is a factor in life. Everyone on earth, especially in the US, assumes everyone else is just like them, full of reason, moral fiber, compassion, empathy, a great good in the making. This is wrong on so many levels. The easiest way to understand is to examine the language, if the language has no words for Honor, Contract, Promise, Default, Morality, etc. then the culture is not like one with those words. What was “Colonialism” but a way to inject common “legal” terminology and usage into places that did not have it, via UCC for example, to make global trade based on Contract Law and not tribal actions.
That’s racist racist racist. Everyone can fly a plane, just give them a chance. Everyone can go to the olympics, just give them a chance. That’s how we end up with about two dozen folks in congress who are simply incompetent. It isn’t really they are like that by choice, but because that is all they can ever be.
Remove Omar from controlled environments and you’ll see someone who makes little to no sense to an American. No dissertations, no deep thinking, no rational listening coupled with engagement, instead you’ll see confused looks, dismissive body language, and abrupt endings to any challenges with predictable talking points.
They are not Moral Christ Figures just waiting to get into positions of power to show their brilliant side, they are lower digit IQ expressions in place to do the bidding of others. This is as old as civilization, but it is racist racist racist to observe it.
If this confuses. Ask this question. How remarkable is it that the Somali Rep is in Minnesota, representing Somalis who live there for Somalia [her words not mine] and is just so happens, remarkably, that one of the largest Frauds in US history NOT related to banking and high finance but grift and deceit, happens to include Somalia and Minnesota, Walz and Obamacare? And isn’t it remarkable that all of that money, hasn’t improved Somalia at all, not one bit, but instead seems to have fueled a petty Hatfields and McCoy feud among waring clans… which, was the reason a recent mayoral Somali candidate lost = The hated clan democratically voted against him. Really consider that, they voted against a Somali because he’s from the wrong clan and voted for the white guy?
It isn’t hard to see, but all of the above is racist racist racist, which is exactly the response any Somali will give when asked to explain the above, followed by a violent rage filled screed. Why? Because the above is discourse requiring thought, investigation, putting the pieces together, connecting dots, not something that can be dealt with with a three second listen.
One last. There was some research done at a prison with low IQ folks, you know the racist racist racist kind of research, and the conclusion was this: Low IQ folks cannot future plan, are unable to project into other possibilities. The example given was, “what would it be like if you didn’t have breakfast?” The reply, no matter how many times the question was asked, or how it was phrased was always, “but I did have breakfast.” That’s racist racist racist of course, but it also explains how folks can be in the positions they are in and demonstrate no ability to understand what is happening beyond what they are told is happening.
The Somalis in MN pattern is obvious to those looking from above, from below they took money like they should, sent it to Somalia like they should, and it is all working perfectly – not one involved will EVER see that as immoral, illegal or unethical, they all see it was not only their duty but legal. There is a clip somewhere of an Indian Amazon Email scammer, she refers to the elderly victim as a “customer” and is shocked when the old lady gets confused about what she is supposed to do to help the scammer. A “Customer.”
The Judiciary, Congress, and State governments as a whole are too corrupt. We do not have an accountable society. Perhaps this is a result of what we see in the evolution of group behavior. The public, in its desire to set our course aright is frustrated. Our social order has been dumbed down and confused and unable to find its way out of this morass. We are lost as sea. The demand for accountability wlll not be met as we are exhausted and too senile to correct. Death, disease, destruction, whether by man or GOD is the only cleansing means by which our frail society will course correct. We will need to start all over again. A faile experiement. Take care of each other and have a good holiday season.
I have followed every bit of this case through the blog Powerline. They basically own this story. I am satisfied that there is a reasonable basis to the allegations. If true, it would seem that some of the siblings were accepted as refugees into the US, and some into England. She definitely has sisters in England. The point of marrying her brother would seem to be to enable him to live here and go to university for free/low cost.
In any event, she is a full citizen now, so would it even be possible to deport her?
Omar filed multiple joint tax returns with the father of her children (her Islamic law informal “first husband”) when they were not legally married as well as during the period of time when she was legally married to her putative brother.
This is not an issue that is subject to debate or which requires any additional facts. It’s outright fraud. Deport.
Omar will ultimately claim that the US courts are not the proper venue for adjudication.
She will fall back on Islamic law and simultaneously raise the victimhood knob to 11.
“President Donald Trump and others have been ratcheting up the rhetoric . . .” (JT)
The “rhetoric?!”
It’s a massive, $1 billion (and counting) fraud scheme, with a protection racket run by favored politicians. And now, in a confession that they’ve been caught, they scream “racism.”
“Omar came to the United States with her family” from Somalia.
So they escape a country of pirates to become pirates in their new country.
Charming culture.
Best comment goes to baba looey.
IMHO
*. A jaunt into defamation is presented. It’s mainly rumor. Google is of no help as it now lists Omar’s college degrees as polysci and international studies. Two years ago her college degree was listed as nutrition.
She entered the US, age 12, with parents so Google claims. It’s unlikely Omar will give up DNA. She’s ignoring it. Nothing will come of it nor the fraud claims by Somalis in general.
The omnibus bills passed by congress included seeking immigrant Imams for moslem immigrants. The American taxpayers agreed to all of it and much more via those fabulous representatives and astute senators. It’s a kleptocracy, mafia state and narco state. That’s all.
So it is…
^^^^ oh pardon, alleged fraud. It’s all in the 1000s of pages in those omnibus bills no one has ever read. At least scan those pages and extract anything Somali and Moslem, Minnesota etc. That’ll narrow it down and locate the reasons it isn’t fraud at all. You, the taxpayer, gave billions to Somalia.
In God’s due time…
😂 Djt thinks Omar came in and obtained her citizenship illegally when it was her “brother” who came in illegally and married Omar? Presumably he, too, is a citizen now? These details aren’t evident. Doesn’t Islam allow marriage of siblings? 1st cousins? Uncles?
Anyway, the worst-case is Omar committed crime, a non-deportable removal of citizenship crime?
Google won’t make a proper witness in any court as it may contain errors.
Onto the “fraud” of billions Americans actually agreed to in those omnibus bills. Omar isn’t sweating.
^^^ The marriage laws in Islam get confusing when Prince Salman’s uncle married 300 wives. Incest is forbidden in Islam. I think it was his nuncle anyway. In nonpolygamous cultures only one wife is registered with the IRS. It’s a group home I guess.
Ciao
You are likely correct that is Omar married her brother to get HIM into the country that would NOT allow revoking her citizenship
That does not change the fact that it is a crime
Is marrying your brother legal in Somalia – I do not know – but it is not here.
Do you think the US recognizes the marrages of 70 year old Afghani’s to 13yr olds when they are brought into the US.
With respect to the Fraud – Congress authorized spending – for specific purposes.
It is fraud to take money and not do what was required for the money.
Your the first person I have heard argue that Congress authorized giving billions to people for things like providing food and shelter that took that money and did not provide food or shelter and that is not a crime.
The question is NOT whether there was criminal fraud.
The question is can Omar be proven to have participated in the fraud beyond a reasonable doubt.
There is zero doubt she was involved. But proving she KNEW that what was going on was Fraud is harder.
We will have to see whether it can br proven that she KNEW the people she was helping where committing fraud.
70 year old and 13 year old in the US? Happens everyday. They don’t register it with the County offices. They lie like rugs perhaps? They are loyal to a higher power?
John, the billions appearing as fraud are billions in these bills. These people are busy hiding that money. Indict them and they’ll pull out the page of the 10, 000 page omnibus. Oh.
PT has already represented polygamous people hasn’t he? It’s just the IRS has room for one wife only currently. Freedom of religion and the US recognizes anything as a religion including peyote eaters. 😂. Another flaw…
John Say. It’s a kleptocracy. Look it up. It’s horrible, perhaps reeks of 3rd world? 😂
Pass the bill and then find out what’s in it.
~Nancy Perlosi
PS, no one ever did.
It’s like Royal Caribbean with an office in Florida registered in Liberia. You didn’t know meals on wheels has an office in Mogadishu?
Klep-toc-ra-cy.

What’s Up With Tom Homan?
Border czar Tom Homan rejected reports that he took a $50,000 bribe from federal agents, his most forceful denial yet of his alleged involvement in an FBI corruption investigation.
The White House has acknowledged that federal authorities conducted a probe but maintained that there was no “credible evidence” of criminal wrongdoing by Homan.
In a Sunday interview with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos, Vice President JD Vance declined to say whether Homan accepted and kept the $50,000 payment but insisted that the border czar “did not take a bribe.”
Attorney General Pam Bondi also declined to say whether or not Homan accepted the alleged bribe during a confrontational congressional hearing, maintaining that the investigation was resolved before she was confirmed as attorney general.
https://www.politico.com/news/2025/10/16/tom-homan-50k-sting-operation-00611219
…………………………………….
Trump has flooded the zone with so many controversies that Tom Homan is now a footnote. But the matter of this $50,000 he may, or may not, have accepted has never been resolved to anyone’s satisfaction.
Something happened with Tom Homan, as the White House and Pam Bondi seem to acknowledge in this article. But there’s an obvious mystery as to ‘how’ this probe ended. In other words, our Border Czar still has a big question mark hanging over him.
Another lie, that $50K story was debunked months ago.
“ABC’s George Stephanopoulos”
Really Anon, George Stephanopoulos really
ATS – while Homan has publicly claimed he did not take money – and the FBI has purportedly confirmed that,
and I beleive records have shown that the money was taken out and returned.
One of the things Homan pointed out was that he was beign paid nearly 1M/year privately – why would he take 50K ?
He took a huge pay cut to be border Czar.
At the Trime the FBI tried to set him up – he was a private citizen.
There is no law against the FBI giving money to private citizens.
What we KNOW is this was a last ditch effort of Biden FBI to entrap Homan for a non-crime.
This should be investigated – but it is the Biden FBI that needs investigated.
If you are going to try to entrap someone into committing bribery – at the very least they MUST have a job in government.
Homan has not said that he did not take the money. He has said it would not be illegal for him to take the money.
$50k is $50k. Doesn’t matter how much one is worth when getting $50k for the effort of reaching out a hand to take it is all that is required. That’s maybe 2 seconds work, the equivalent of being paid $90M an hour. Even Musk isn’t getting that rate.
When he says ““I didn’t take $50,000 from anybody,” Homan said in a Wednesday night appearance on NewsNation’s “Cuomo” town hall.” what he means is “I didn’t take it; it was given to me.”
This is why “Vice President JD Vance declined to say whether Homan accepted and kept the $50,000 payment but insisted that the border czar “did not take a bribe.””
As of yet the FBI has no way to explain how they handed him $50k and he doesn’t know about it.
“For what it’s worth, the Trump administration could simply release the FBI recording of the undercover agents’ interaction with Homan, which would presumably help clear things up, but the folks who claim to be the “most transparent” officials in the history of the planet have so far kept the tapes under wraps.”
https://www.ms.now/rachel-maddow-show/maddowblog/tom-homan-cash-jd-vance-pam-bondi-struggle-answer-rcna237316
Homan has not said that he did not take the money. He has said it would not be illegal for him to take the money.
That’s a Rachael Maddow lie. Where did you copy and past it from, a Rachael Mad Cow column on the web?
BBBBUUTTTTT….. MUH TRUMP!!!! I WANT MY BRIBERY BIDEN BAAACCCKKKK!!!!
A perfect seque from the defamatory Democrat deception that is the topic of this column. Your copied and pasted lie for today is getting as old as the fictional – but also felonious – “Trump-Russia Dossier”.
This is the bribe that Biden’s FBI offered Holman WHILE HE WAS NOT IN OFFICE to deliver something in return for a bribe. And that he did not accept.
You seem to be determined to continually acknowledge that you are a Democrat apparatchik and pathological liar.
The big question mark hanging over you and your lies is this: are you so mentally ill that you believe you have any credibility outside of a Rachael Maddow blog?
50,000? Either the pink panther was investigating bribes or agent 86 offered agent 99 a bribe. When Leo is investigating leo wires can get crossed perhaps? It returned to the chief.

There should never be a statute of limitations on being illegally present in this country.
Then Melania will be in trouble.
Hold on there, Baba Looey!
Melania is a “free white person” and may be admitted to become a citizen.
It says so right in the immigration law of the American Founders.
Oh gee, we didn’t see that tee up Cybil…
Melania came to the US on a VISA in 1996, She was able to extend that to an H1-B visa withing few weeks and worked as a Model in NYC.
She was naturalized in 2006.
She was never here illegally and she is now a citizen
What valuable and hard to find skill did Melania possess to justify the EB-1 visa? It would appear that the application was falsified by those attesting to those fictitious skills.
“Nicknamed the “Einstein Visa”, the EB-1 is in theory reserved for people who are highly acclaimed in their field – the government cites Pulitzer, Oscar, and Olympic winners as examples – as well as respected academic researchers and multinational executives.
…
To obtain an EB-1 for extraordinary ability, an immigrant has to provide evidence of a major award or meet three of 10 criteria proving excellence in their field. The criteria include coverage of the applicant in major publications, original and significant contributions to a field, and work displayed at artistic exhibitions.”
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-43256318
Show us (not you, just a general request) the application and supporting documents. Also, she was an anchor baby, securing the path for her parents to come.
The entire point of the EB-1 is to get people into the US who are in short supply. Women modeling in the nude is not one of them. In addition, as soon as she got the EB-1 she stopped doing all the things the might have made the list.
Oh NO it’s the clown again. The one who gets information off Google or Wikipedia, then pretends to be an expert!
Obviously this one knows nothing about this (and he always shows up at night, so that his posting will be read by many before being shot down!) . HERE are the FACTS:
The term “Einstein visa” simply refers to the visa’s general selectivity – individuals with extraordinary ability in the sciences, arts, education, business or athletics all may be considered for the EB-1 preference category.
“This nickname has led to a popular misconception [like from deceptive Anonymous] that this type of EB-1 is reserved for academics, but in fact, “outstanding professors and researchers” is a separate subcategory. The term “Einstein visa” simply refers to the visa’s general selectivity – individuals with extraordinary ability in the sciences, arts, education, business or athletics all may be considered for the EB-1 preference category.”
“Furthermore, there are two main ways to qualify for an EB-1 as an individual with extraordinary ability. The first is a one-time achievement of the same caliber as a Pulitzer, Oscar, or Olympic Medal. The second way—and the way in which [Melania] Trump would have qualified—is to provide documentation that one meets at least three of the following ten requirements:
• Evidence of receipt of lesser nationally or internationally recognized prizes or awards for excellence
• Evidence of membership in associations in the field which demand outstanding achievement of their members
• Evidence of published material about the individual in professional or major trade publications or other major media
• Evidence the individual has been asked to judge the work of others, either individually or on a panel
• Evidence of original scientific, scholarly, artistic, athletic, or business-related contributions of major significance to the field
• Evidence of authorship of scholarly articles in professional or major trade publications or other major media
• Evidence that the individuals work has been displayed at artistic exhibitions or showcases
• Evidence of the individuals performance of a leading or critical role in distinguished organizations
• Evidence that the individual command a high salary or other significantly high remuneration in relation to others in the field
• Evidence of commercial successes in the performing arts”
What valuable and hard to find skill did Melania possess to justify the EB-1 visa? It would appear that the application was falsified by those attesting to those fictitious skills.
The certainty is that you’re lying and vomiting your hatred just like her predecessor, Big Mike Moochelle Obama. You couldn’t bother checking before spewing your lies.

Brent Molnar: Voice of Reason ~ “The Man-Child in Chief: Why Donald Trump’s Behavior Isn’t Just Alarming – It’s Clinical …
At this point, calling Donald Trump a sociopath feels like stating water is wet. But throw that term around too loosely and people stop hearing it. So let’s be precise. What if the erratic cruelty, the compulsive lying, the open disdain for rules and empathy – it’s not just some quirky political branding. What if it’s a documented, diagnosable pattern? Because it is. And understanding it might be the first real step toward protecting what’s left of American democracy.
Sociopathy – officially known as Antisocial Personality Disorder (ASPD) – isn’t some cartoonish label you slap on a villain. It’s a well-defined clinical condition. It starts early, often appearing in childhood as conduct disorder – aggression, deceit, a lack of remorse – and fully emerges in adulthood as a complete disregard for others, rules, and basic morality. It’s not about being mean. It’s about being wired to harm without guilt.
Trump’s entire life fits that arc. His father, a distant real estate baron who valued dominance over decency. His mother, emotionally unavailable. A home life that trained him not in compassion, but in conquest. And what we see now—what we’ve always seen – isn’t a break from that past. It’s the fulfillment of it. Trump isn’t unwell because of power. He got power because he was unwell in a way that ruthless systems reward.
Look at the checklist: No remorse for pain caused? Check. Disregard for laws, norms, and human dignity? Check. Chronic lying, even when it gains him nothing? Bullying those beneath him, worshipping those above? All boxes checked. And still, millions confuse his behavior for “strength.” In reality, it’s a toddler in a suit with the nuclear codes and a permanent grudge.
The tragic twist? Authoritarians and autocrats abroad have figured this out. Trump’s second-term travel itinerary is a map of manipulation. NATO leaders learned: flatter him, and he’ll do whatever you want. Putin knew it. So did MBS. So does Musk. His emotional development stopped sometime before junior high, and it shows. If you coddle the ego, you get the policy.
But let’s not sugarcoat this: Trump’s inner circle is now filled with people just like him. Not sober adults with institutional memory or democratic instincts – but fellow man-babies with vendettas, fragile egos, and no ethical guardrails. And when developmentally stunted men hold real power, they don’t just throw tantrums. They break countries.
We’re already seeing it. Arresting political opponents. Threatening judges. Openly demanding revenge. Surrounding himself with yes-men willing to torch institutions to stay in his good graces. This isn’t just a moral collapse – it’s a psychological time bomb.
So what do we do? First, call it what it is. Trump’s behavior isn’t “eccentric.” It’s pathological. Then we build movements – not just to oppose policies, but to inoculate ourselves against this style of politics. Because this isn’t just about Trump. It’s about a system that rewards antisocial traits and mistakes immaturity for strength.
We need voters to stop falling for tough-guy cosplay. We need to educate people about what this kind of psychological profile actually looks like – and why it’s disqualifying, not admirable. We need to rebuild civic life around empathy, truth, and shared responsibility. And we need to do it fast.”
Hey Anon,
That’s honeywagon full of words that basically say you don’t lime President Trump for unsupported, largely emotional “reasons”
I don’t lime the President either.
WINNING!
SOUNDS MORE LIKE BIDEN/DEMS TO ME ANON!!! THE phony sympathic/down to earth BIDEN lie!! Corrupt as they come!!
Actually to be diagnosed with antisocial personality disorder you have been diagnosed with conduct disorder as a youngster first. This means things like cutting the ears off cats or the tongues out of dogs or setting fires crushing animals paying absolutely no attention to anyone in school constantly being kept after school etc etc etc.
If there’s no diagnosis as a youngster then antisocial personality disorder cannot be diagnosed as an adult
Now, there is a possibility of borderline personality disorder
Ano
Now, there is a possibility of borderline personality disorder

I believe the Dems arrested Trump. Does that count?
“Threatening judges.”
Here’s a little ditty by Chuck Schumer: “I want to tell you, Gorsuch. I want to tell you, Kavanaugh. You have released the whirlwind, and you will pay the price,” Schumer said. ”You won’t know what hit you …”
