President Donald Trump (along with Elon Musk and others) has repeatedly suggested that Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., has obtained a suspicious-looking fortune—possibly up to $44 million—a claim that seems highly unlikely and caused by a financial disclosure from Omar that may have incorrectly listed her husband’s stake in businesses and violated House disclosure rules.
In her latest financial disclosure, filed in May 2025 and covering 2024, Omar valued husband Tim Mynett’s venture capital management firm, Rose Lake Capital LLC, at $5 million to $25 million, and his winery, eStCru LLC, at between $1 million and $5 million—far greater than the $1 to $1,000 and $15,000 to $50,000 she valued those businesses the previous year.
The upper range of those valuations is what’s led to reports she’s worth tens of millions of dollars, even though the rest of her disclosure and the value of her federal government pension reveals a net worth between about -$40,000 and $115,000.
