Fox’s Tomi Lahren Shreds Markwayne Mullin for ‘Corny’ Probe Into Ilhan Omar Marrying Brother: ‘That’s Not What’s Going to Get People Out to Vote!’

 

Fox News anchor Tomi Lahren to DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin: Less probing, more deporting.

Lahren vented during The Big Weekend Show on Saturday she would be thrilled to see Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) get deported for lying about marrying her brother — a claim the Department of Homeland Security is currently investigating — but she would much rather see Mullin get to work deporting millions of illegal immigrants. She said accomplishing that goal would galvanize MAGA voters much more than booting Omar.

“Nothing would make me happier than seeing Ilhan Omar deported for immigration fraud,” Lahren said. “However, what I would have much rather heard from our DHS Secretary is how he’s going to arrest and deport 10 million illegal aliens let in under the Biden Administration. That’s what I want to hear from our DHS secretary.”

Lahren continued:

I don’t want to hear him answering questions from influencers to own the libs. Owning the libs is so fun, I enjoy it too. What I enjoy more is 10 million illegal aliens being deported, because that was the promise of mass deportations. If they want to do an investigation, do an investigation. But at the end of the day, that’s not what’s going to get people out to vote, is if Ilhan Omar married her brother.

What’s going to get people out to vote for Republicans is “Promises made, promises kept.” Mass deportations. If Ilhan and 10 million others go, okay. But if it’s just Ilhan because you want to make a point to own the libs on X, I’m sorry, that’s not enough for me.

She then posted on X she wanted “MASS DEPORTATIONS not this corny crap.”

The Fox News and Outkick pundit went off a few days after Mullin told right-wing influencer Benny Johnson, “we know that [Omar] married her brother to try to bring him to the United States.”

Mullin also confirmed his department was investigating whether Omar and her brother committed “some illegal activity” during an interview at the GOP midterm convention.

“If you lied about certain things about your application, there’s no expiration to that,” he added.

Omar has denied the allegations.

As for Lahren, this was the latest example of her calling out President Donald Trump’s administration for not deporting enough illegal immigrants, in her view. She mocked the DHS in July for “flexing” about deporting 356,389 so far in fiscal year 2026, saying “That doesn’t sound like mass deportations to me, in any sense of the word.”

That came a few days after she fumed Trump needed to move faster on deporting the “millions and millions” of illegals who flooded the U.S. on Joe Biden’s watch.

“I thought this administration stood for America First and the American worker. As a Trump voter, I know I don’t give one sh*t if big corporations, if they maybe risk losing their serf labor class to rightful deportations,” she vented. “All of this, quite frankly, is infuriating.”

And she doesn’t seem any happier as Fall approaches.
