BIPARTISANSHIP IN ACTION: Conservatives Hate Corruption Crusader Cory Mills Too

Last week, Blaze Media continued their investigation into Cory Mills’ lies and corruption, further exposing his trail of scandals after reporting revealed that Mills faced a lawsuit seeking his eviction from his luxury D.C. penthouse for allegedly failing to pay his rent.

Take a look at this dive into the lies of Republicans’ new George Santos with a gun…

The Blaze: Cory Mills vs. the truth: Top 10 times the GOP wunderkind played fast and loose with the facts
July 23, 2025

Non-Rangers don’t lead the way

  • Some of the men who worked with Mills at military contractor DynCorp took great umbrage to Mills claiming he had been an elite Army Ranger during his time in service. Mills listed his imaginary Ranger service on an application for a shift leader job at DynCorp. He also made the claim verbally, according to several men who worked with him. But his official service record does not include time with the Rangers. […]
  • It was just such an issue that prompted the State Department to require its contractors to certify the service records, training, and awards of all employees. Mills was warned time and again to turn in proof of his specialties and training. For months, he failed to do so.
  • “I found Cory and I told him flat out, ‘Cory, if I don’t have your bio and your supporting documentation in my hand by 1900 hours [7 p.m.] today, you have to go get on an airplane tomorrow morning at 10 a.m. and leave,’” Parks said.
  • Parks said after issuing the order, “That was the last I saw Cory, because he piled up all of his DynCorp s**t and his State Department serialized items, weapons, this, that, and the other, on his bed, and he walked out the gate. Nobody ever saw him again.”
Not blown up twice overseas
  • Mills has long claimed that he was the victim of roadside bombs in Iraq. Although these claims have been called out publicly as fabrications, Mills’ official congressional biography still claims he was “struck twice” with explosive devices while overseas. […]
  • Blaze News pressed him on his claim that he suffered from a traumatic brain injury. Mills responded: “No, I actually just got reviewed by the PA and the doctor there, and they basically told me to monitor myself for the next 24 hours.” […]
  • In the second incident, on April 19, 2006, Mills’ motorcade was hit by a roadside bomb as it made its way toward the Iraqi Ministry of Electricity. According to a summary report obtained by Blaze News, the two lead vehicles in the convoy had turned right toward the Ministry of Electricity, when the follower Humvee was struck by an array of explosively formed penetrators with five or six linked devices.
  • Mills’ vehicle was 50 yards away from the one that sustained bomb damage, and his colleagues said he was never wounded.
Single and lonely?
  • Cory Mills said he was single, alone, and lonely. Looking back, it was an odd, uncomfortable conversation starter during an Oct. 3 Mercury One helicopter relief flight helping victims of Hurricane Helene in Western North Carolina. […]
  • At that very time, Mills was married to (he says separated from) Rana Al Saadi and also in a long-term romantic relationship with 27-year-old Iranian-American activist Sarah Raviani, the founder of Iranians for Trump. Raviani’s name became public in February 2025, when she called police to Mills’ ritzy D.C. penthouse to report domestic violence.
  • Metropolitan Police Department officers responded to the address on Maryland Avenue for a “report of an assault.” According to the incident report, the assault involved the use of hands and feet to force Raviani from Mills’ residence. Raviani recanted her complaint, and no charges were ever filed. Mills denied there was any sort of physical altercation.
The master’s degree that wasn’t
  • Mills has touted three college degrees in various online biographies. Included on that list is a master’s degree in international relations and conflict management. On Mills’ LinkedIn page under education, it states: “American Military University, Master’s degree Candidate, International Relations and Conflict Resolution, 2013-2020.” […]
  • According to the private for-profit school based in Charles Town, West Virginia, Mills did not earn a master’s degree from AMU. Stacy Robinson, registrar service specialist at the American Public University System, the parent organization of AMU, said, “He did not confer a master’s degree from AMU.”
No military sniper school
  • Mills has touted his experience as a sniper on network news after the near-assassination of President Trump by Thomas Crooks on July 13, 2024, in Butler, Pennsylvania.
  • Mills did complete a sniper course to become a designated defense marksman for contractor DynCorp, but his comrades in arms told Blaze News he never qualified for that course because he was not a graduate of an accredited military sniper school. That became apparent when the DynCorp snipers went to the shooting range to re-qualify.
  • “He was supposed to have been this, this super duper military trained sniper and, all this s**t, and they [DynCorp] sent him to their sniper school,” Parks said. “He got through it, but he really struggled. It was like he was learning it for the first time, as one of them told me. If he was some hot s**t sniper from the Army, it should have been a breeze.”
Marriage by radical Islamic cleric
  • On July 12 on social media, Mills told a reader that reports that he was married at a Virginia mosque by a radical Islamic cleric are “false” and “misleading.” This was a 180-degree reversal of what Mills acknowledged to Blaze News in a May 7 article, “GOP Rep. Cory Mills explains why he was married by a radical Islamic cleric.”
  • Mills told Blaze News that while he was married at the Dar Al-Hijrah Islamic Center in Falls Church, Virginia, he knew nothing of the mosque’s history or of Sheikh Mohammed Al-Hanooti’s ties to the Muslim Brotherhood or his reputation as a prolific fundraiser for the terror group Hamas.
  • Al-Hanooti is perhaps best known as an unindicted co-conspirator in the 2008 Holy Land Foundation Hamas financing trial and the 1993 World Trade Center bombing plot. Al-Hanooti served as the imam at Dar Al-Hijrah from 1995 to 1999. In a 1998 khutbah, or sermon, Al-Hanooti said, “Allah will rain his curse on the Americans and the British,” and, “The curse of Allah will become true on the Jews.”
Misleading photos with Trump, Wiles
  • On April 26, Mills’ Instagram account posted a series of photographs related to his recent trip to Syria. Included in that image carousel were photos of Mills alongside President Donald Trump and his chief of staff, Susie Wiles. The captions implied the photos were related to the trip to Syria. The photos were shared to Mills’ Instagram account, and he was listed as a collaborator on the post.
  • Blaze News learned, however, the images were not from Syria — or even from 2025. They were taken during a campaign trip to Iowa in the summer of 2023. […]
  • Mills visited Syria on April 18 with U.S. Rep. Marlin Stutzman (R-Ind.), a trip sponsored by SAAPP. Mills had a private 90-minute meeting with Syrian President Ahmed Al-Sharaa and Foreign Minister Asaad al-Shaibani. According to journalist Roger Sollenberger, Mills asked for a private meeting with Al-Sharaa that Congressman Stutzman did not attend.
