The home of Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn, was raided early Monday morning by Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), a source familiar with the matter told Fox News Digital.

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.
Omar responded to the raid on X, slamming it as a way for President Donald Trump to “target political enemies” with “baseless lies,” and insisted: “I will not be silenced.”

President Donald Trump’s Border Czar Tom Homan said in mid-September that the progressive congresswoman was subject to an ongoing “criminal” investigation, but did not specify the nature of the probe.

During her tenure in Congress, she has been plagued by allegations that she married her brother in 2009 in an alleged immigration fraud scheme.
