Trump Administration Investigating Ilhan Omar in Effort to Revoke Citizenship, WSJ Reports

The probe centers on whether Omar or her father gave false information on citizenship paperwork, and officials say revocation would require a federal lawsuit.

  • On Monday, federal agents searched the Washington home of Democratic Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, seizing her passport, cellphone, computers, and notebooks as the Department of Homeland Security confirmed the search was part of an ongoing federal investigation.
  • Investigators are examining whether Omar or her late father, Nur Omar Mohamed, misrepresented her age on citizenship applications to indicate she was 17 instead of 18; had she been 17, her citizenship would have been automatically granted with her father's.
  • Authorities have issued more than a dozen subpoenas to relatives as a Minnesota grand jury examines family immigration records, though federal officials previously examined similar allegations during the Biden administration and did not pursue the case due to insufficient evidence.
  • U.S. Attorney Jeanne Pirro revealed on Tuesday that her office has opened "several investigations" into the congresswoman, while Omar accused President Donald Trump of trying to "weaponize federal law enforcement" following the raid.
  • The inquiry is part of a broader administration effort to denaturalize U.S. citizens, with officials pursuing more than 200 lawsuits, as the federal investigation into Omar is meant to culminate in the revocation of her citizenship and ultimately her deportation.
