Rep. Ilhan Omar Says She Will Move From DC Home After Federal Agents' Search

Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., said Wednesday she will move out of her Washington, D.C., home after federal agents searched it last week, saying publicity over the raid has left her feeling unsafe. Agents from Homeland Security Investigations searched the house on Oct. 12 under a warrant, Omar said in an interview with MS NOW's Chris Hayes. She said the search lasted four to five hours, involved as many as 25 agents, and ended with 17 items taken, including phones and notebooks. She said agents mostly behaved decently. Omar said her address is public and she has received death threats. The investigation reportedly concerns allegations that she or her father misstated her birth year on immigration paperwork.

The alternative source, NewsNation, briefly reports the move and her stated sense of being unsafe. Left-leaning HuffPost leads with Omar's narrative of the early-morning raid, including the pounding on doors, a request that she waive congressional protections, and the items seized. Right-leaning outlets also report her move and the threats, but add the investigation's focus on her immigration and birth year. The Daily Wire says she ignored that the Biden administration opened the inquiry, and notes her claim that the raid was meant to scare her and to show Trump supporters action against her.
