The home of Rep. Ilhan Omar was raided early Monday morning by Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), just flashed as breaking news.
The raid stems from a criminal fraud investigation into the Somali-born congresswoman's immigration paperwork, which was filled out by her late father when she was a child.

Seems clear to me now that the theory is going to be that she was NOT related to the person she claimed was her father, so she could NOT get derivative citizenship via his naturalization whether he ever was naturalized or not.

Been pondering this lol "answer". Wondering if her attorney's coached her to say "not to my knowledge" to anything related to an immigration fraud investigation and she is too stupid to reword it to something that would make sense? This was an interview, not sworn-in testimony under oath. She would have been better off to just straight up lie than to say that.
Of course, it was beyond idiotic to do an interview under the circumstances no matter what answer she might have given. This woman is a special kind of stupid.
