Ilhan Omar calls Trump ‘creep’ as president revives ‘fake name,’ marriage allegations

Omar called Trump a "creep" and said her name "has always been Ilhan Omar." Why it matters: The exchange follows a federal probe into whether Omar or her father made false statements on immigration paperwork, and a GOP lawmaker has threatened to push for her expulsion from Congress. Omar's office disputed the reporting and said she has repeatedly denied the marriage allegation.
