Claims DNA match proves llhan Omar married her brother

EXCLUSIVE: Is this the proof that Ilhan Omar married her own brother to bypass US immigration rules? Conservative group's DNA test from 'congresswoman's cigarette butt' purports to show 99.99% match to her second husband Ahmed Elmi​

  • A supposed DNA match between Rep. Ilhan Omar and her second husband Ahmed Elmi allegedly proves that the two are siblings
  • It has long been rumored that Omar and Elmi are siblings, but because of a lack of paperwork in war-torn Somalia, positive proof has never been uncovered
  • The match says that Omar's DNA was taken from a cigarette butt, while Elmi's DNA purportedly came from a drinking straw
  • Although Omar is not known to be a smoker, a grainy photo appears to show her smoking outside of her Washington, DC home
  • Republican strategist Anton Lazzaro posted the results hours before he was arrested and charged with trafficking underage girls for sex
  • Omar’s spokesperson is already discrediting the report due to Lazzaro’s involvement
  • A shadowy Republican group is behind the surreptitious sleuthing and claims this finally proves the two are siblings

Persistent claims that leftist congresswoman Ilhan Omar married her own brother to get around US immigration laws may be legitimized by what appears to be a conclusive DNA test.

The results of the test assert that there is a 99.999998% chance that Omar and her second husband Ahmed Elmi are siblings.

The report, drawn up by Endeavor DNA Laboratories does not name either Omar or Elmi, instead referring to them as 'Sibling 1' and 'Sibling 2.' DailyMail.com understands that Omar is Sibling 1.

It says that Sibling 1's sample was garnered from a cigarette butt and Sibling 2's from a drinking straw.

Omar has never before been known publicly to be a smoker, although her third husband Tim Mynett is. However, a grainy picture of her with a cigarette in her mouth, said to have been taken outside her home in Washington, D.C. appears as part of the evidence gathered in an intensive investigation by a shadowy conservative group.

There's a 99.999998% chance that this DNA test was fabricated so they'd have a clear way to discredit the conjecture by discrediting the DNA test.

Also, to hang up detractors of Omar on a potentially-funny-but-ultimately-irrelevant point.
 
Did anyone happen to notice that the morons who wrote that article reversed their identification of which sibling was which person or the entire thing is just complete bullshit?

Note that "Sibling 1" is listed as XY (meaning they could call AMELX & AMELY for Amelogenin, indicating that the genotype of the person is XY [Male]) and "Sibling 2" is just X (meaning they could only call AMELX for Amelogenin, indicating that the genotype of the person is XX [Female}).

Now, unless Ilhan Omar has a secret penis no one has been able to prove until now, "Sibling 1" could not possibly be her. As such, Ilhan Omar is "Sibling 2", which would make sense, since her "brother" would have a vagina if he was XX.

Can you believe people get paid actual money to write shit that is completely incorrect?
 
What does 99% here mean?

Aren't you only supposed to be 1/2 match to your own siblings?

I know the number would go up if you assumed generations of inbreeding, but suggesting it would get that close to 100 is a little...

Not quite what they did. They didn't do a whole genomic comparison. They took selected, highly conserved sequences and compared the samples to one another. They then calculated the odds of how likely it would be if they weren't related that one would see such a high degree of homology (sameness) between two random samples. The odds on that are 1 in 47,352,360. If you invert the question you get what is the confidence that they are related and they are not two random samples given the homology, which is 99.999998%.

Whoever those two samples belong to, the man and the woman in question are, beyond all reasonable doubt, full siblings, with full siblings being defined as having the same mother and father.

Your mom = 50% of your DNA. Your dad = 50%. If you have the same mother and father you should share 100% DNA, or statistically as close as you can get to 100% (it's probably 99% because almost every human deviates in some slight way from every other human).

You get a random half from each side, so in theory siblings share 25% of mom's DNA and 25% of dad's DNA, 50% total.

"99%" is supposed to refer to the chances of them being siblings, not the percentage of genetic match.
 
Why can't it be both?
They're currently claiming to be opposite sexed. For them both to be troons, one would need to be double troon/circumgender.

Unless we want to say both are XY but the "brother" through RNG didn't react properly to in utero testosterone so he was born an XY woman and could transition back to being an XY man with a vagina.

My head hurts.

You got one XX and one YX, so... a MtF troon and a FtM troon. Personally, I like to think the 'brother' is actually the female and Omar is the dickchick/biological male. But that's just because we're talking amusing flights of fancy.
