We are learning more about the federal investigations
into Congresswoman Ilhan Omar.
In separate investigations,
authorities are looking into Omar's finances and if she committed
immigration fraud.
Fox News correspondent Alex Hogan is in Washington with the latest.
In a surprise raid last week,
Homeland Security agents descended on Minnesota Democratic
Congresswoman Ilhan Omar's Washington,
D.C. home, seizing her personal passport, phone,
and computer as part of an immigration fraud investigation.
Fox News has also learned authorities obtained Omar's DNA
as part of their probe.
You can get a search warrant to take the DNA.
They probably swabbed her that day.
Remember, she was home.
Homeland Security and Justice officials
aren't commenting on the investigation,
which reportedly centers on whether Omar's age
was falsified on her citizenship application.
Fox has told Omar's sister voluntarily spoke to investigators,
but it's unclear what she said.
About a dozen other relatives have also been subpoenaed.
If she's got nothing to worry about, she'll be absolutely just fine.
However, if she lied,
she didn't tell the truth,
if she didn't do it properly, just like anybody else,
she's gonna be in trouble. The U.S. attorney for D.C. is also
investigating Omar's finances,
specifically discrepancies in her required disclosures.
We're looking at the facts.
Based upon the facts, we'll follow them wherever they take us.
Omar is accusing the Trump administration
of political retribution and weaponizing
federal law enforcement.
White House officials say they're just following the law.
President Trump promised American people were going to enforce immigration law.
You know, there's a right way and wrong way to come
to this country. If you come here the wrong
way, we'll deal with you.
Congresswoman Omar has not made a public appearance since that
raid on her home, but authorities say they
do not believe that she has left the country.
In Washington, Alex Hogan, Fox News.
