Federal agents raid Rep. Ilhan Omar's home in immigration probe
–
Neutral summary
Federal agents conducted a pre-dawn raid on Rep. Ilhan Omar's Washington, D.C., home on Monday as part of an ongoing criminal investigation into her immigration paperwork. The Justice Department confirmed that Homeland Security Investigations agents executed a judicially authorized search warrant. According to reports, the probe concerns immigration documents filled out by Omar's late father when she was a child. Omar condemned the search as political intimidation and an attempt to weaponize federal law enforcement against a political enemy of the president. Democrats expressed outrage, calling the raid an abuse of power so close to the midterm elections. President Trump denied involvement but later renewed his attacks on Omar. The Justice Department has also issued subpoenas to Omar's relatives, and her husband Tim Mynett was seen at the scene during the raid. Omar launched a fundraising drive in response, while a watchdog group filed a Hatch Act complaint over the search.
