Ilhan Omar raid: House Democratic leaders condemn search of her home

Ilhan Omar raid drew condemnation from House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, Democratic Whip Katherine Clark and Democratic Caucus Chair Pete Aguilar after federal agents searched the Minnesota congresswoman’s home on Monday.

The Democratic leaders accused President Donald Trump and far-right extremists of repeatedly targeting Omar with personal attacks and baseless allegations.

The Justice Department said Homeland Security Investigations agents executed a judicially authorized search warrant as part of an ongoing federal investigation.

Omar described the search as intimidation and said she would not be silenced. The search itself does not establish wrongdoing.
