Federal agents, including DOJ and ICE/Homeland Security Investigations, searched the Washington D.C. and Minnesota residences of Rep. Ilhan Omar as part of an ongoing federal investigation, confirmed by the DOJ. The nature of the probe remains undisclosed, though some sources claim it relates to immigration documents.
