Tom Homan, who serves as President Donald Trump’s Border Czar, stated that a federal investigation into Representative Ilhan Omar (D-MN) has been "ongoing for a while." The investigation was reported to have come to light on Monday, although specific details about the probe, referred to as "World War 11," are not clear. Agents from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) reportedly raided Omar’s home in Washington, DC, indicating that the investigation may be related to immigration issues. A Department of Justice (DOJ) official confirmed to Fox News Digital that "today in the Washington, DC, area, Homeland Security Investigations executed a judicially authorized search warrant secured by the Department of Justice." Homan mentioned that federal officials have been aware of the investigation's status. He stated, "There was a warrant executed this morning, so I’ll leave it at that," and suggested that further details should be provided by Attorney General Todd Blanche or DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin. In response to the investigation and the DHS raid, Omar claimed that the actions are politically motivated. She stated, "I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced."
