House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., is raising questions about possible felony conduct with Minnesota Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar’s finances after a glaring discrepancy between an initial disclosure listing up to $30 million in net worth and a revised filing showing less than $100,000.

“Who makes a multimillion-dollar mistake on their financial disclosure form?” Comer asked Monday on “Hannity.”

“Either her accountant went to one of those ‘Quality Learing Centers’ in Minnesota, or she lied about it,” he continued, mocking an allegedly fraudulent Minneapolis daycare whose sign was notoriously misspelled.

“If she lied about it, that’s a felony.”

The remarks come after an amended disclosure showed Omar and her husband’s assets were between $18,004 and $95,000, a sharp drop from an earlier disclosure that estimated their holdings between $6 million and $30 million, according to The Wall Street Journal.

The sharp dropoff drew scrutiny from Republicans and a congressional watchdog.

Omar’s office said the congresswoman is not a millionaire and blamed a major accounting error for the discrepancy.

“The amended disclosure confirms what we’ve said all along: The congresswoman is not a millionaire,” Omar spokesperson Jacklyn Rogers told the Journal, adding that the filing was corrected “as soon as the discrepancy was identified.”

Her attorney also pushed back on allegations of misconduct, saying it is common for lawmakers to rely on accountants when preparing financial disclosures.

“While the error is, of course, unfortunate, there is nothing untoward, and nothing illegal has occurred,” the attorney said in part.

Fox News Digital previously reached out to Omar’s office for additional comment regarding the matter but did not receive a response.

Republicans have seized on the incident, criticizing Omar and speculating that fraud could be at play.

“If she made a mistake, [she never explained] how the mistake happened. It’s not possible,” Comer said.

“You review that financial disclosure form. Before you hit enter, you enter all the assets in, and then it pops up and you review it, and you hit it again, so it’s highly unlikely that she made the mistake.

“This isn’t going to go away from her, so we’re going to continue to try to push for answers and see if her name pops up in any of these frauds that Vice President Vance and the House Oversight Committee are detecting in Minnesota,” he added.

House Majority Whip Tom Emmer, R-Minn., criticized Omar as a “complete fraud” over the weekend, amplifying the Republican voices critiquing the development.

“Quite frankly, if she is discovered to be involved in any of this fraud personally, that she benefited from it, even by her actions of promoting it and trying to resist investigations, she should be held accountable to the fullest extent,” he said.

FIRST ON FOX: Florida Republican Rep. Byron Donalds introduced legislation that would require biometric tracking of every entry and exit from the United States, as part of a Republican push to crack down on visa overstays and fraudulent immigration documents.

With illegal crossings down sharply under President Donald Trump’s second term, Republicans are shifting toward the next phase of immigration enforcement — tracking visa overstays and closing documentation loopholes. Donalds’ bill aims to force full nationwide use and federal oversight of the biometric entry-exit system.

Donalds told Fox News Digital exclusively he introduced the legislation on Monday.

“Thanks to President Trump’s decisive actions, our borders are more secure than they have been in decades. We are now moving to finish the job by introducing the Reform Immigration Through Biometrics Act, which provides the oversight needed to ensure every entry and exit is fully verified,” Donalds told Fox News Digital.

The bill would close gaps to ensure full coverage at every port, provide system flow updates and identify what is “slowing” it down by requiring DHS to report to Congress. The biometric data system collects fingerprints, facial images and iris scans.

Immigration reform is a central focus of the second Trump administration, with officials shifting attention toward internal tracking and enforcement gaps, not just border crossings.

The biometric entry-exit system was first introduced a decade ago, following a 2004 recommendation from the 9/11 Commission to strengthen national security through a comprehensive tracking method.

Previous administrations failed to fully implement the system across all ports of entry, leaving it incomplete. A final rule issued in December 2025 now mandates a nationwide rollout.

Donalds’ legislation aims to ensure it is fully executed this time by holding DHS accountable. 

“The border has been secured, but the work is far from over,” said Donalds in a press release. “Visa overstays and fraudulent documentation remain a large piece of the overall illegal immigration puzzle that needs to be addressed.”

Data from the Border Patrol cited by Pew Research found there were 237,538 migrant encounters at the Mexican border in 2025. It is the lowest number since Richard Nixon was president in 1970 when 201,780 were encountered.

Donalds, a candidate for Florida governor to succeed term-limited Gov. Ron DeSantis, said he anticipates “swift passage” of the bill.

“Republicans are steadfast in our commitment to the mandate entrusted to us by the American people,” he told Fox News Digital.

A Texas man who died after falling from one of Zion National Park’s most famous and challenging trails was identified as Gilberto Ramos, 68, of Laredo, the National Park Service announced Monday.

The fatal fall happened Friday, April 17, at about 2 p.m. local time in Utah, when park officials received reports that a hiker had fallen from the chained section of the Angels Landing trail, a steep and heavily visited route known for its narrow ridge line and sheer dropoffs.

Park rangers and local law enforcement responded to the scene and later located Ramos on the north side of Angels Landing in Zion Canyon near Big Bend, according to officials. Recovery operations were completed Friday evening, and his remains were transferred to the Washington County Sheriff’s Office and the Utah Office of the Medical Examiner.

In the immediate aftermath of the incident, officials temporarily closed the West Rim Trail, including Scout Lookout and Angels Landing, during response and recovery efforts.

The National Park Service (NPS) and the Washington County Sheriff’s Office are continuing to investigate the circumstances surrounding the fall.

Angels Landing is closed from April 20 through April 23 for trail maintenance, according to NPS. No permits will be issued during those dates. The park said the day-before lottery will reopen April 23 for hikes scheduled April 24.

While Angels Landing is closed, the broader West Rim Trail is currently open.
