Feds search Rep. Ilhan Omar's home in immigration probe
Federal agents conducted a pre-dawn search Monday at the Washington home of Rep.
Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) as part of an ongoing immigration probe, multiple outlets reported.
Why it matters: Searching Omar's home marks a substantial escalation of the Trump administration's ongoing fight with the outspoken progressive, who has condemned the immigration crackdown in her state.
Driving the news: The Associated Press and Fox News reported that Homeland Security Investigations agents conducted the search, citing a Justice Department statement.
Neither the DOJ, DHS, or Rep.
Omar's office immediately responded to Axios' requests for comment.
Last month, border czar Tom Homan confirmed an ongoing criminal probe into Omar, though he declined to offer details.
