Millionaires are the new middle class. Once railed against by Democratic, progressive politicians, those whose worth sits comfortably in the seven-figure range are getting a pass from left-wing ire.
Why? Because many of the “fighters for the working people” are millionaires themselves.
Take Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar. The Democrat reported a net worth of up to $30 million in her latest financial disclosure, according to the New York Post. The doc, filed in May, found Omar and her husband, Tim Mynett, saw a roughly 3,500% increase in net worth last year, compared to 2023. The windfall was first reported by the Washington Free Beacon on Monday.
The financial gains came from Mynett’s two businesses, a Santa Rosa, Calif.-based winery and a venture capital firm headquartered in Washington, DC
