Rep. Ilhan Omar is facing renewed scrutiny after new financial disclosure details raised questions about how her family’s assets have been reported.
According to a report Sunday from the U.K.’s Daily Mail, a financial disclosure tied to Omar showed that her husband, Tim Mynett, reported earning as little as $200 from his California winery, eStCru, in 2025. The filing also reportedly listed his venture capital firm, Rose Lake Capital, as having no value.
That is a sharp contrast from earlier disclosures that placed both the winery and the business at far higher values. The Daily Mail reported that both entities had previously been valued at up to $30 million.
Omar’s latest disclosure reportedly listed the couple’s assets between $20,000 and $125,000, with debts between $30,000 and $100,000. That would suggest a possible negative net worth for the couple.
The numbers stand out because of the controversy that followed Omar’s earlier 2024 disclosure. That filing appeared to show assets valued between $5 million and $30 million, prompting media attention and questions about whether the congresswoman’s finances had been accurately reported.
Omar later said she was “not a millionaire” and attributed the figures to an accounting error. She then filed an amended disclosure with more modest numbers.
🚨 WOW. **Ilhan Omar absolutely LOSES IT when confronted about Somali fraud and the very real question of deportation.

The Washington Examiner reported that, even after the amended filing, Mynett still appeared to have received between $100,000 and $1 million in revenue from Rose Lake Capital during the relevant period. The same report said eStCru had brought in several thousand dollars before shutting down earlier this year.
Earlier disclosures have also varied. In 2023, Rose Lake Capital was listed as being worth between $1 and $1,000, according to the Washington Examiner.
The shifting values have fueled criticism from Omar’s opponents, who have accused her of failing to provide clear answers about her household finances. Those questions have come alongside broader criticism of her record, including scrutiny over fraud tied to a food assistance program in Minnesota.
Omar has also drawn backlash for comments she made at an October 2025 rally in Minneapolis before a Somali audience. Speaking in Somali, she referred to Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud as “our president” and said, “We are very happy that Hassan is our president.”
Critics argued that such remarks were inappropriate for a sitting member of the United States Congress. Omar’s defenders have often said attacks on her background and identity are unfair and politically motivated, but her opponents argue the financial disclosures and public comments deserve closer examination.
At minimum, the conflicting financial filings raise questions that should be answered clearly. Members of Congress are expected to be transparent about their finances, and when reported values change by millions of dollars from one filing to the next, voters deserve an explanation that goes beyond vague accounting language.
