Democratic consultant denies affair with Ilhan Omar

A prominent Democratic political consultant denied he is having an affair with Rep. Ilhan Omar after his estranged wife alleged in a divorce filing that he had been in a monthslong relationship with the Minnesota Democrat.

Tim Mynett, 38, filed a legal response Tuesday pushing back against Beth Jordan Mynett’s assertions that he told her in April, when they separated, that “he was romantically involved with and in love with another woman, Ilhan Omar.”
