US immigration authorities raid Democratic congresswoman Ilhan Omar's home
US authorities raided Democratic Representative Ilhan Omar’s home as part of an ongoing investigation into alleged immigration fraud, just weeks before the midterm elections.
Federal agents executed a search warrant at the Washington home of Democratic Congresswoman Ilhan Omar on Monday, as part of an ongoing criminal investigation into alleged fraud involving immigration documents submitted on her behalf by her late father. The operation, conducted by Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), is connected to an investigation that has been underway for some time.
Omar, a progressive Democrat and vocal critic of former President Donald Trump, was born in Somalia and arrived in the United States as a child after fleeing the country's civil war. She has three children with her longtime partner and former husband, Ahmed Abdisalan Hirsi, whom she married in 2018. Omar later married Tim Mynett, a political consultant, in March 2020.
