Liz Wheeler’s frame-by-frame takedown: 7 reasons the Ilhan Omar assault was probably fake
On January 27, during a town hall meeting in Minneapolis, a man sitting in the front row suddenly charged at Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) and sprayed her with an unknown liquid using a syringe-like device. The alleged suspect, 55-year-old Anthony Kazmierczak, was immediately arrested on suspicion of assault, and Omar, unharmed, was able to continue her event. He faces charges of third-degree assault and is currently detained at the Hennepin County jail.
Some people, however, are convinced this assault was a hoax. They argue that certain details in the video footage indicate Omar staged the attack against herself, perhaps to deflect attention from controversies she’s involved in.
On this episode of “The Liz Wheeler Show,” Liz delivers a frame-by-frame analysis of the attack, dissecting seven details she argues might confirm the growing suspicion that the entire ordeal was manufactured.
Reason 1: Security dropped the ball — or did they?
The first suspicious detail, Liz says, is that Omar’s attacker was “visibly a weirdo.”
“Look at this guy. He is clearly under the influence of something,” she says, rolling video footage from the town hall meeting that captures the up-close profile of the attacker prior to the incident.
At a “town hall event for a sitting member of the U.S. Congress — if there’s a weirdo seated in the front row, the security moves the weirdo. That’s standard procedure,” she adds.
Reason 2: Timing a little too perfect?
“It’s interesting to note that he jumped up right after Ilhan Omar said that Kristi Noem must resign,” Liz says.
“It was as if that was his cue.”
Liz says the timing of the attack makes her wonder: “Is this some kind of stage/hoax/hate crime in order to protect Ilhan Omar from any kind of enforcement of her questionable immigration activities?”
Reason 3: Suspicious head nod?
“There’s also a moment where it appears that Ilhan Omar gives him the head nod, like, ‘Go ahead,”’ Liz says, playing another video clip that captures Omar’s face immediately prior to the attack.
While Liz wants to give her “the benefit of the doubt,” when she closely analyzes the footage, she sees a definitive nod.
“She gave him a nod as if to give him his cue,” she declares.
Reason 4: Zero panic?
“Then, of course, when he does lunge at her and squirts this foul-smelling unknown substance on her, she barely flinches,” Liz notes.
She explains that if Omar was truly unaware of the attack, then surely she would’ve shown concern about the substance — perhaps a “poison chemical agent” — that was just squirted on her. Or perhaps she would involuntarily flinch, assuming that the attacker was wielding a firearm.
“And yet, she barely reacts,” Liz says.
Reason 5: Omar charges toward the danger?
Liz also finds it suspicious that Omar’s initial reaction to being sprayed was to move toward the perpetrator. Video footage captures her immediately storming away from the podium, where she was speaking in his direction.
“Instead of the kind of self-preservation move-away, she lurches towards him,” she scoffs.
Reason 6: Why spare the face?
“It’s also strange, by the way, that he didn’t aim this substance at her face. He aimed it at her sweater,” Liz observes.
If he was a genuine attacker, he likely would’ve aimed to cause true damage and thus wouldn’t have projected the liquid in a “harmless” place, she suggests.
Reason 7: No medical checkup?
The most convincing evidence that Omar staged this attack, however, is that she refused any medical testing, hazmat evaluation, or decontamination at the scene. On the contrary, she demanded to be allowed to finish her speech before examination.
“To decline to even test what this substance is or to go to the hospital and to continue speaking — these are the reasons why … so many people are asking: Is this an authentic attack, or was this a staged attack?” Liz says.
“Well, my answer to that would be this: It’s a good thing that he was arrested because if it was a real attack, he deserves to be arrested and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, and if it’s a fake attack, if this was some kind of hoax hate crime, then he deserves to be investigated, prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”

Minnesota day-care exposé journalist strikes again — and part 2 names the ‘hub’ of the fraud wheel
Nick Shirley — the 23-year-old investigative journalist who exposed day-care fraud in Minnesota with a video that has now surpassed 140 million views — is back with part two.
“It’s a whole other aspect to the fraud scheme,” says BlazeTV host Liz Wheeler, who invited Shirley to “The Liz Wheeler Show” to share his latest discoveries.
In the first video, Shirley exposed numerous Somali-run day-care centers in Minnesota as fraudulent operations. Despite receiving millions (or even billions overall) in taxpayer-funded government subsidies through programs like CCAP and Medicaid, these centers provided no actual child-care services. Footage captures Shirley visiting multiple empty facilities with locked doors, blacked-out windows, no visible children, and sketchy “staff members.”
In part two, which dropped last week, Shirley shines a light on non-emergency medical transportation companies in Minnesota, which he alleges are fraudulently billing the state and Medicaid for millions of dollars in rides and services that never actually occurred.
Liz plays a clip from part two in which Shirley and his partner, Minnesota native David Hoch, enter a Somali-run business called “Safari Transportation,” which is registered as a non-emergency medical transportation company. Except when they get inside, they find that it’s a money-wiring business.
These non-emergency medical transportation centers, Shirley explains, are the hub of the wheel of Minnesota fraud. The day-care centers, autism services, assisted living, and food assistance programs are the spokes of the wheel because “in order for these people to receive these services, they need to get moved to locations,” he says.
Shirley gives the example of an adult living at an assisted living center. If he or she needs to go to the doctor, a transportation service is needed. However, many of the transportation businesses in Minnesota are simply shell companies. They submit fake paperwork for services that were never provided while billing the state.
“Like how much money are we talking?” asks Liz.
“We estimated just doing like the national average. Like each NEMT averages around 20 vehicles per company. And then each ride, each trip is around $50, and each vehicle, if they’re out doing the work, they’re doing about 10 trips a day. So we estimated around like $8 million [per day],” says Nick.
This fraud, he explains, doesn’t just rip off the Minnesota taxpayer. All Americans are affected because both “state money and federal money” is being used to reimburse these “transportation companies.”
“Their hands are in our pockets,” says Liz.

WSJ piece claims Trump isn’t happy with Pam Bondi — divisive propaganda or based?
On January 12, the Wall Street Journal published an exclusive report claiming that President Trump is less than thrilled with Attorney General Pam Bondi.
According to the article, he has complained privately to aides repeatedly in recent weeks, describing Bondi as “weak” and “ineffective” at enforcing his agenda, specifically when it comes to the Epstein files, prosecuting people like former FBI Director James Comey and New York AG Letitia James, and pursuing the shadow figures who orchestrated Biden’s phony 2020 presidential victory.
This is music to many conservatives’ ears. From their perspective, MAGA has waited a year in vain for the heads of D.C.’s slimiest swamp creatures to roll, as was a campaign promise. To discover that Trump himself is perhaps also displeased with the DOJ’s lack of prosecutions is encouraging.
However the report is coming from a mainstream outlet, so a healthy degree of skepticism is necessary, says BlazeTV host Liz Wheeler.
Regardless she feels that the contents of the Wall Street Journal’s report are “very realistic” and “very plausible.”
“It seems like a summary of what you and I have experienced throughout the year,” she says.
According to the article, President Trump told the Wall Street Journal, “Pam is doing an excellent job. She’s been my friend for many years. Tremendous progress is being made against radical left lunatics who are good at only one thing: cheating in elections and the crimes they commit.”
“All right, so how do we analyze this article?” asks Liz. “Is this true? Is President Trump finally growing tired of Attorney General Pam Bondi?”
While she acknowledges that “it is true that Pam Bondi has been loyal to President Trump for many years, and that makes the situation perhaps personally a little more awkward,” the reality is President Trump has to decide “whether Pam Bondi is an effective attorney general, not whether she’s a loyal friend.”
And the facts don’t lie.
As early as February 2025, it was clear to Liz that Bondi “does not tell the truth to the American people” after she gave Liz and other conservative influencers those “infamous white Epstein binders” that contained no new information on the convicted child sex trafficker.
Bondi’s ineffectiveness has “become more obvious as the summer passed and the fall passed and the new year passed,” says Liz.
“Tulsi Gabbard handed Attorney General Pam Bondi on a silver platter a case against John Brennan and the Obama cronies that fabricated the intelligence community assessment to claim that Russia helped President Trump defeat Hillary Clinton … and what accountability have they faced?” she asks.
“Trump’s administration controls the Department of Justice. We should be seeing indictment after indictment after indictment. And yet what have we seen? We’ve seen nothing.”

Hillary Clinton defies Epstein subpoena: Time for Trump to lock her up — for real this time
After being subpoenaed by the Republican-led House Oversight Committee to provide closed-door deposition testimony related to their past associations with Jeffrey Epstein and the federal government’s handling of investigations into his horrific crimes, both Bill and Hillary Clinton failed to appear on their scheduled testimonies.
The former president and Secretary of State sent letters in advance stating that they would not appear, condemning the subpoenas as legally invalid and politically motivated.
Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) has since announced that the committee will proceed with contempt of Congress proceedings against both Clintons, with a committee vote planned for next week, potentially leading to a full House vote and referral to the Justice Department.
BlazeTV host Liz Wheeler says that this is President Trump’s second chance to do what he should’ve done a long time ago: Arrest Hillary Clinton.
“Bill and Hillary Clinton think they’re above the law. Well, in a sense, nothing else is new. They’ve thought they were above the law for a long time because sadly, quite tragically, they have been,” Liz says. “They’ve virtually never been held accountable for anything wrong that they have done, and so in a sense, who can blame them for thinking that they can get away flouting the law once again?”
She recalls that back in 2022, former Trump advisers Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro were both hit with two counts of criminal contempt of Congress and spent four months in federal prison as a result.
In their joint letter, the Clintons claimed executive privilege — the implied power of the U.S. president and executive branch officials to withhold certain confidential communications from Congress, courts, and the public. While this might go unchallenged for the former president, there’s no chance it’ll work for Hillary, Liz says.
“Who does Hillary Clinton think she is? Well, I know she thinks that she’s the president of the United States, but she’s not. She was the Secretary of State. She was a senator. She was a first lady. She’s now a private citizen. She’s exempt from nothing,” she says.
The list of crimes that should’ve already landed crooked Hillary behind bars is long: “She abused her position of power, especially when she was Secretary of State, to enrich herself and her husband. She engaged in pay-to-play quid pro quos, where she sold access to herself and to the vice president, even to the president.”
“And when she was caught, what did she do?” Liz asks. “Well, she brought out BleachBit … a computer program to essentially nuke every piece of information on a piece of technology so that there’s no possibility of any forensic analysis.”
“Lock her up.”

3 shadow radicals in Mamdani’s inner circle: Plotting to seize property, abolish police, and blame capitalists for ‘terror’
The Democratic Socialists of America may have Democrat in their name and operate as part of the Democratic Party, but they hate the team they play on.
DSA members see the Democratic Party as a cuckoo sees other birds: a means of achieving an end. Just as a cuckoo mother lays her eggs in other species’ nests so that her offspring will be fed and nurtured until her chicks are strong enough to kill the hosts, so the DSA has a parasitic relationship with the Democratic Party.
A video from the watchdog organization Canary Mission describes it like this: “DSA candidates run as Democrats in safe blue districts. They slip through low turnout primaries, and once inside, they use the Democratic label as camouflage while advancing an extremist anti-American agenda far beyond the party’s mainstream. … Once in office, DSA candidates take orders from DSA’s internal enforcers and working groups. City halls and state houses start running as socialist machines controlled by the organization, not the Democratic Party and certainly not voters.”
This kind of hostile takeover is happening right now in New York City, where Muslim democratic socialist Zohran Mamdani is now the mayor.
On this episode of “The Liz Wheeler Show,” Liz exposes three key figures inside the Mamdani administration who are currently working to ensure that the rotten fate of the Big Apple spreads like a cancer across the nation.
Mamdani’s recent appointment of NYC tenant rights activist Cea Weaver as the director of NYC’s Office to Protect Tenants is evidence that a total socialist takeover isn’t fear-driven speculation from the right wing, but the certified plan.
A resurfaced clip from a 2021 DSA event that’s recently gone viral captures Weaver discussing a push for shifts in housing policy: “I think the reality is that for centuries we’ve really treated property as an individualized good and not a collective good, and … in transitioning to treating it as a collective good and towards a model of shared equity will require that we think about it differently. And it will mean that families, especially white families but some POC families who are homeowners as well, are going to have a different relationship to property than the one that we currently have.”
“That is, in essence, Zohran Mamdani walking down the street and seizing private property, implementing racially biased, racially discriminatory policies that prevent white people specifically from having the same relationship with property (also known as ownership of property) that they have had in the past,” Liz translates.
“[Cea Weaver] will use her position of power to destroy private property, to take it away, despite the fact that her mom, by the way … owns a $1.6 million house in Tennessee,” she laughs.
But Weaver is just the tip of the iceberg. “[Mamdani] has saturated New York City with DSA members — DSA members who want to orient themselves towards insurrection, who want to overthrow the empire, who believe that you’re not just pushing socialism, you are tearing down a nation built on capitalism,” Liz continues.
One of those people is Alex Vitale — a key adviser on Mamdani’s transition team, specifically for the Committee on Community Safety. Vitale, a Brooklyn College sociology professor and coordinator of the Policing and Social Justice Project, is the author of a book titled “The End of Policing,” in which he argues for the “abolition of police.”
“He has pushed to abolish the New York City Police Department’s gang database. … And he’s very open about this,” Liz says.
Another deeply concerning member of Mamdani’s administration is a man named Gustavo Gordillo — the co-chair of the New York City chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America. He was a key architect of the chapter’s electoral strategy that helped propel Mamdani’s successful 2025 mayoral campaign, and he now serves on the transition team’s economic development and workforce development committee, advising on policies tied to Mamdani’s economic agenda.
Liz plays a video clip of Gordillo from a 2025 DSA rally spewing the following anti-American vitriol: “They make figures like Hamas and, quote, unquote, terrorists into effective enemies. I think all of us in the working-class movement need to spend more time villainizing too. There are actual terrorists in the United States, but they are not Mahmoud Khalil, nor are they the students and working-class people protesting Israel’s genocide. And it is definitely not the Palestinian people. The terror comes from the capitalists and their pawns. … The terror comes from their fascist government and their ICE squads.”
“These are the people in the Mamdani administration,” Liz says.
“Remember: Sometimes the most detrimental impacts are from policies that are imposed on us by people whose names we’re not even familiar with.”
