  "account": "Federal agents raided the Washington home of Democratic Congresswoman Ilhan Omar on Monday in a criminal investigation, intensifying President Donald Trump's conflict with the outspoken lawmaker. The early morning search, conducted by Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) agents, follows allegations of immigration fraud involving Omar's late father. Omar stated she was \"ok\" after the operation but accused the administration of targeting political opponents three weeks before her re-election bid in the November midterms. Trump's border czar, Tom Homan, described the search as part of an ongoing probe, while Trump himself suggested Omar was \"complaining\" about her non-country origins. Democrats condemned the move as an abuse of government power to target political opponents, with some calling for Omar to be stripped of her citizenship if fraud is proven. The Justice Department confirmed the court-authorized search but did not reveal details of the investigation.",
