BREAKING: Federal Agents Raid Ilhan Omar's D.C. Homehttps://pjmedia.com/matt-margolis/2026/10/12/federal-agents-raid-ilhan-omars-dc-home-n4958219Federal agents executed a search warrant at Rep. Ilhan Omar's (D-Minn.) Washington, D.C., home early Monday morning as part of a criminal fraud investigation into her immigration paperwork, according to an exclusive report from Fox News Digital.
The search began at around 6 a.m. Two sources close to the investigation told the outlet that the probe focuses on immigration documents the Somali-born congresswoman's late father filled out on her behalf when she was a child. Homeland Security Investigations and the Department of Homeland Security are leading the operation, and the Justice Department is also involved. Multiple agents wearing HSI jackets were seen outside the residence.
So Omar is an object of the investigation, though the possible fraud being investigated would not have been committed by her ... at this point, anyway.
Obviously, if greater fraud is found than a failure to cross a "T" or dot an "I", it would open several 55-gallon drums of sticky questions.
Oh, Brother: Feds Raid Omar's Residence in Criminal Probehttps://hotair.com/ed-morrissey/2026/10/12/new-feds-raid-omars-residence-in-criminal-probe-n3819833Now we know that the Department of Justice has joined the investigation. DHS investigators raided Omar's Washington, D.C. residence this morning pursuant to a Department of Justice warrant, ABC News reported earlier today:
Rep. Ilhan Omar's Washington, D.C.-area residence was searched early Monday morning, a Department of Justice spokesperson said, as part of an ongoing criminal investigation.
Sources tell ABC News that the investigation relates to Omar’s immigration paperwork.
"Today in the Washington, D.C. area, Homeland Security Investigations executed a judicially authorized search warrant secured by the Department of Justice," a DOJ spokesperson said. "This enforcement action is part of an ongoing federal criminal investigation."
Fox News also reported on the raid, but its source claims it relates to Omar's own entry paperwork:
Multiple federal agents with HSI jackets were seen outside Omar's Washington, D.C. home in the early hours of Monday.
Two sources close to the investigation say the search stems from a criminal fraud investigation into the Somali-born congresswoman's immigration paperwork, which was filled out by her late father when she was a child.
I've heard (radio) that Omar was age 12 when she entered the US.
