- Sources told Fox News Digital the search focused on immigration-related paperwork from Omar's childhood, following repeated calls from President Donald Trump to investigate the lawmaker.
- Omar denounced the raid as "political intimidation" and an attempt to "weaponize federal law enforcement," while House Democratic leadership condemned the action with less than 30 days until midterm elections.
- Trump called the congresswoman "totally crooked" while denying involvement in the investigation, and White House border czar Tom Homan stated the probe had been underway "for a while."
- In March, the Vice President discussed potential legal action against Omar with immigration adviser Stephen Miller, alleging the lawmaker committed immigration fraud against the United States.
