Police in Minneapolis announced on Monday evening that they were investigating reports of vote fraud, after video emerged appearing to show alleged supporters of Congresswoman Ilhan Omar collecting absentee ballots.  James O'Keefe of Project Veritas claimed that Omar's backers were illegally harvesting ballots.  According to O'Keefe, a Minneapolis resident, Liban Mohamed, illegally collected some 300 ballots from primarily Somali immigrants to help his brother, City Councilman Jamal Osman.  Mohamed in turn accused O'Keefe on Twitter of 'fake news'.  Omar Jamal, a Somali political operative, told Veritas that he believes ballot harvesters in the community are hired and take advantage of elderly community members and that Omar is connected to the alleged election fraud.  However neither he nor the videos provide any direct evidence of any connection to Omar, who is also of Somali descent.  Supporters of Ilhan Omar, a Democrat from Minnesota, are accused of voter f

Different countries? What is the leverage they have? So for me, this is a national security question,' Pelosi told NBC.  House Speaker Nancy Pelosi warned President Trump's hundreds of millions in debts pose a  'national security risk' 'We take an oath
