Federal agents execute search warrant at Rep. Ilhan Omar's DC-area home

Federal agents carried out a search warrant at Minnesota Representative Ilhan Omar's DC-area home on Monday as part of an ongoing federal criminal investigation.

• Federal agents executed a judicially authorized search warrant at Representative Ilhan Omar's DC-area home on Monday morning.
• The Department of Justice said the search, conducted by Homeland Security Investigations, is part of an ongoing federal criminal investigation without disclosing its scope.
• Reports citing unnamed sources said agents examined immigration paperwork that Omar's late father filled out when she was a child.
• White House Border Czar Tom Homan confirmed the search warrant was executed and declined to discuss the investigation's specifics.
• No charges have been announced in the investigation, and Representative Omar has not commented on the search.
• The investigation targets alleged false statements and fraud in immigration paperwork, and some agents are also examining Omar's finances and campaign funds.
• The warrant was served despite a Justice Department policy discouraging investigative steps within 60 days of an election.
• Omar denied the allegations as politically motivated and called the probe a 'complete hoax.'
• House Democratic leaders called the search a 'rogue abuse of power' and a 'corrupt weaponization' of the federal government against political adversaries.
