You WON’T BELIEVE What Ilhan Omar Is Hiding…
FULL TRANSCRIPT
All right, gang. Buckle up because news
just hit the wire that is so utterly
outrageous. So, it shows such blatant
corruption that I got to be honest, even
I had to read it twice. All right.
Minnesota Representative Ilhan Omar, a
parody of repulsiveness just got even
more repulsive. According to newly filed
federal disclosures, reportedly she
reportedly generated what amounts to, I
kid you not, a 60,000%
return in just one year.
I'll say that again. Well, I'll give you
the real figures here. She went from
roughly $50,000 in reported assets to 30
million
in one year. Now, unless she discovered
oil in her backyard, I mean, that kind
of return, shall we say, it just tends
to raise a few questions.
two ventures tied to her husband
reportedly exploded in valuation,
jumping from modest figures, again,
we're talking tens of thousands into the
millions almost overnight. Now, even
President Trump is rightly calling for a
Justice Department investigation into
the couple's finances. So, what on earth
is going on here? Well, to help us break
this all down, I brought back my good
friend and expert in all kinds of seedy
Washington corruption, the one and only
Ross Given. Ross is a former Wall Street
executive who spent nearly a decade
tracking congressional and corporate
insider trades. And he's hosting another
one of his amazing free live online
training events. This one's on Thursday,
February 26 at 300 PM Eastern, where
he's going to show you exactly how
everyday investors can follow these
insider moves for themselves, but
perfectly legally and ethically. And the
best part is that when you register,
you'll also receive a free insider trade
idea complete with a full written
breakdown explain exactly why it's being
recommended. Just click on the link in
the description below. So trust me,
you're going to want to do that just for
that amazing free resource. But first,
Ross, good to see you, my friend, as
always.
>> Hey, always good to see you, Dr. Steve.
>> Yeah, well, you you know, yeah, it's
usually good, but you always get my
blood boiling.
>> Oh, I'm sorry. [laughter]
>> My my blood pressure goes up. How you
always bring light at the end of the
tunnel, but getting to that tunnel, man,
you know, I'll tell you. But help me uh
you know make this simple uh for a guy
who just likes to read books and stuff.
How does someone go from $50,000
to uh five mill? How much is it now?
>> 30. It was 501. Yeah. Like 30 million.
>> 30 million in one year because I'm sure
you know I think I speak for all of us.
We'd really love to know that strategy.
>> Yeah. It'd be a good one, right? If I if
I put that in a book, it'd probably sell
out in a couple of minutes. Well, here's
what we know and what I found from her
disclosures. So, her latest federal
disclosure, and of course, they have to
show you what they own and what it's
worth. Show millions in new new assets
tied to her husband's businesses. So,
there's really two big ones. Now, first
is his venture capital firm. It's called
Rose Lake Capital. Now, he started this
thing three years ago, right after his
wife's first term. How convenient. Yeah,
>> it already has $60 billion
in assets under management. And this
thing should not be that successful this
quickly. Honestly, it shouldn't even
exist because her husband Tim Manette
has zero zero investment experience. His
degree is in political science. All he's
ever done is work on political campaign.
So, who in the heck is giving this guy
$60 billion to manage,
>> right?
>> And to me, this feels very similar to a
little uh Hillary Clint the Clinton
Foundation whole payforplay scheme,
right?
>> Because the only thing this guy has to
offer
>> is access to his wife and her colleagues
in Congress. But nonetheless, that's
what the numbers say. And yet his
ownership in a year went from basically
nothing, $1,000 to somewhere between5
and 25 million. And that is in one year.
Next is the couple's California winery
called East St. Crew LLC. Now, the
winery, again, according to last year's
report, was valued between 15 and
$50,000.
This year, 5 million bucks. Wow. 50,000
to 5 million is not a pretty good year.
That's a Hollywood script. Dr. Steve,
this is a Forbes cover story.
>> Right. Right.
>> But the whole thing makes no sense. I
dug into this two years ago. He was sued
for fraud in a case centered around this
winery. He borrowed 300 grand to start
it and he promised the guy he would
triple his investment in 18 months.
That's already greasy.
>> 18 months comes around. Not only did he
fail to triple the guy's money, he
didn't even have the original 300 grand
to return. He had to sue him to get this
money that So, how did this failed
non-existent winery that couldn't scrape
together 300 grand to cover investors
suddenly become worth 5 million bucks,
right? So, it it's all very shady. Uh I
think you're being kind uh with that
choice [laughter] of word. Shady is
right. Um, and then but it gets weird.
It gets shadier
because despite this, despite filling
out these disclosures personally with
these multi-million dollar personal
holdings, Ilhan Omar continues to
publicly deny being a millionaire,
right?
>> It's absurd. I mean, I feel like I'm
taking crazy pills. I'm listening to
this woman talk, then I'm reading the
reports that she filled out that I'm
like, you just said you were $30
million. It's on paper that that's why
this has drawn such scrutiny, including
the calls for investigation. A and look,
you know, look, disclosures aren't
convictions. Unfortunately, we know that
Pelosi disclosed all of her trades for
years. She never got so much as a a slap
on the wrist. But,
>> right,
>> when numbers move that dramatically,
people notice. And more than likely, I
think we can all agree she's probably
guilty.
>> Yeah. Yeah. Well, yeah. Especially
especially in Minneapolis, right? I
mean, we've been covering it in
>> in detail on this channel. I mean,
multiple multiple highprofile fraud
cases are being discovered there more
than anything I could
>> ever have imagined. And uh but sadly I
mean [sighs] you know Il Ilhan we were
talking about before the show here Il
Ilhan's a particularly repulsive case
but unfortunately she's not an isolated
case. This is this is not simply a a one
bad apple uh in in Congress and your
specialty is tracking insider stock
trades,
>> right? and you've been following their
investments for years to find big
opportunities. Again, that's why I I
love what you do. You actually you you
turn this these lemons in the lemonade
for the rest of us. But we talked about
this off camera,
>> but the numbers are out for 2025
and
they've done it again, right? Surprise,
surprise. Yeah.
>> Why don't you share with our audience
what you were showing me earlier here?
Well, for the fifth year in a row,
Washington DC has again beaten Wall
Street. And once again, they didn't beat
it by a little, they beat it by a lot.
According to the Congressional Insider
Trading Report for 2025,
38 members of Congress outperformed
Warren Buffett last year.
>> Wow.
>> 38.
>> Wow.
>> Members of Congress returned on average
33% last year. And that may not sound
huge, but I want to put this in
perspective because the long-term
average for the stock market
>> is, you know what, 9 10% a year, right?
Last year was a good year. It's 16.8%.
Congress doubled that.
>> Wow.
>> Now you've got professional money fund
managers who do this for a living. They
can they're struggling to beat the
index. And then we have senators placing
trades on their cell phone between
meetings generating 50 60 78% annual
returns. Warren Davidson right there
78%.
Buffett didn't do that in a year this
century. [laughter]
Right. And none of And the fascinating
thing is none of them are writing any
books on how you can do it too.
Interesting. Right. Isn't that
interesting? And and you and I have
talked about this numerous times, but
just again for everyone to understand,
total full disclosure here. This is not
just one political party doing this,
right? It's not just the Dem. It's not
just Pelosi and the Democrats.
>> Yeah, that's right. Um, when you look at
the numbers and you put up that graphic,
I'll show you here. Republicans averaged
35% last year. Democrats averaged 31.8.
So, both of them around or a little
better than double the market. Uh, I
mean, all I can say, at least
Republicans are better at insider
[laughter] trading than Democrats, but
no, this is this is a bipartisan uh
bipartisan issue in in in their
performance.
>> Yeah. Yeah. So, so I mean, what
precisely are they actually doing
differently than say a Warren Buffett?
How how are they picking these stocks?
And I guess I mean the real question
bottom line is how can viewers do the
same thing? What what should we look for
as a tell that this is an investment
that we should get in on?
>> Well, what we focus on are outlier
trades. So you don't generate 60%
returns buying index funds. You're not
getting that in a mutual fund, right?
You you get those kind of returns when
you buy very specific stocks at very
specific times. And I'll give you an
example. Representative Susie Lee, who
sits on the House Appropriations
Committee along the defense
subcommittee,
um, sits on these committees that decide
who gets billion dollar defense
contracts. So, she buys a stock a couple
of years ago, and the stock she buys is
Rhinol, a relatively
>> Yeah. Rein sounds like a a German heavy
metal band or something.
>> Yeah. Well, it's a little German arms
manufacturer. They make weapons. So the
the reason I say this is an outlier,
there's people in Congress that buy all
the time 100 stocks a year. This lady's
bought nothing in three years. She buys
one stock and she didn't pick Apple or
Google or Nvidia. She bought Rhinel, a
small cap German arms manufacturer. Now
that's kind of random, right? And then
you realize, as I mentioned, she sits on
the House Appropriations Committee, the
defense subcommittee. Well, what do you
know, Dr. Steve? This stock took off
like a banshee. Ran 306%.
>> Wow.
>> Over the next 10 months. And it's not
it's again it's not just one.
>> Representative Gilbert uh was it
Cisneros? Yeah.
>> Bought stock in the drone manufacturer
Aer Avironment back in November. So this
is what three months ago.
>> The next month. The next month the
department of war announced the
unleashing American drone dominance
project. They ordered 300,000 new
drones. Cesteros serves on the Armed
Services Subcommittee on Intelligence,
Special Operations, and Military
Personnel. Like, it's it's just insane
what these guys are doing.
>> And the and the interesting part of it
all is this information is all public,
right? I mean, it may be inside going on
behind the scenes, but eventually they
have to release it all the
>> 100%. Yeah, it's all public. and that
they are legally required to file these
trades. So, you can see the date, the
ticker, how much they bought. And this
is the key point, you can follow along.
That's that's why I host these free
training sessions every couple of months
is to show people exactly how to filter
these filings and identify the highest
probability trades. I'll show you the
database where they are, what to look
for, what the big winners had in common.
So, again, that is happening this
Thursday, February the 26th at 3
Eastern. And as you mentioned, when you
register, we will send you the report,
my latest pick, with all the details,
why we like it, who's buying. It's going
to be really eye opening.
>> And and the the cool thing to well, I
guess cool for however you want to put
it. I mean, cool for us if we're looking
for opportunities, is it's not just
politicians doing this, which is
interesting.
>> Yeah, that's correct. So, um, CEOs,
chief financial officers, board members,
every executive at every publicly traded
company has to do this, too. they have
to report their trades. We can see when
insiders are buying before drug trial
results. We can see if they're buying
before a merger or big government
contracts. It is it is an enormous
advantage. And and again, I know this
makes people angry, but the silver
lining in all of this is that it's
public.
>> Yes,
>> they're not going to stop,
>> right?
>> There have been multiple bills proposed
to ban Congress from trading stocks.
None of them passed. There's no
consequences. So, like I always tell
people, you can get mad or you can try
to get even. I encourage people to use
this to your benefit as you said, thank
you for saying that. Legally and
ethically using their moves for your own
advantage, just piggybacking what they
do.
>> Piggyback. Yeah, exact. I mean, and
that's what I love about what you do.
You're not speculating. You're not
guessing. You're simply following the
money. It's literally that seems to me
it's that simple. It's it's already
documented.
>> It's fully public. It's just it just
people have to know where to look and so
it's really just a matter of accessing
that kind of information. So again, this
is why I mean seriously, you got to sign
up for Ross' free live training. Again,
it's this Thursday, February 26, 300 PM
Eastern. It's online, so you can can
attend from the comfort of your own
couch. Anyone can come. Click the link
in the description to register. You
know, I've been to so many of Ross' free
trainings, and they're going to blow
your mind. I mean they're beyond
eyeopening and again the beauty of this
is that we're just you know we're
literally just tracking we're we're
writing the coattales of what these
politicians and CEOs are doing uh that
they have to by law disclose. So that's
what makes Ross' approach so awesome. We
get to piggyback on their insider
knowledge that they have to make public
and we get to piggyback on that legally
and ethically. Did I get that all right?
>> No, you're right. And the way I like to
explain it is is look, their salaries
are paid by you and me.
>> They're definitely not representing us.
At least most of them aren't. I think
the very least they could do is throw us
a stock pick here and there so we can
potentially make money as America
succeeds because they know exactly which
areas are going to get uh legislation is
going to get passed to inject capital.
They know exactly where the Department
of Defense and Department of Labor is
going to spend money. They they are
connected to all these donors and mega
corporations. like they just have a huge
edge and instead of letting it frustrate
you, let it make you money. So yeah,
join me on the 26th. I'll show you how
all this works. Like you said, it's
free, it's online, uh, and it's it's
usually pretty eye opening.
>> And and gang, don't wait to register
because these free trainings fill up
pretty fast. So, click on that link
below right now and register for this
free online training again Thursday,
February 26, 3 p.m. Eastern and learn
how you can use the same insider
information Pelosi and others have used
to make millions, but we're going to do
it for faith, family, and freedom.
Thanks so much, Ross. Always great to
chat with you.
>> Hey, you too, Dr. Steve. Keep up the
good work.
>> You, too, my friend.
