He was attacked with a syringe! US agents raid Somali Congresswoman Omar's house

Federal agents in the USA searched the home of Somali origin Ilhan Omar, a member of Congress from Minnesota.

The US Department of Justice reported that agents searched Omar's residence in the capital Washington, upon a court order, as part of an investigation. The statement stated that the search was carried out as part of an ongoing federal criminal investigation. It was not disclosed whether it was Ilhan Omar's home during the search.

'I WILL NOT BE SILENCED'

Omar, who is a member of Congress from the Democratic Party and frequently criticizes US President Trump, described the search carried out by the agents in her post on her social media account as "an attempt to target political rivals and use federal law enforcement as a weapon." "Trump has been targeting me with baseless lies and smear campaigns for a decade. This is the latest escalation in Trump's intimidation campaign. I will not be silenced," Omar said.

Omar became the first Somali American elected to the House of Representatives.

Ilhan Omar's Communications Director, Jacklyn Rogers, targeted the Trump administration for the search carried out yesterday and said, "It is an incredible abuse of state power." Rogers maintained that Omar had done nothing wrong.

The nature of the investigation was not disclosed

News that a search was carried out on Omar's home was first shared on Fox News television. It was stated that the investigation, which was carried out by the Ministry of Justice, was related to the immigration applications made by Omar's deceased father. However, no official statement has been made yet regarding the reason for the investigation.

WHAT DID TRUMP SAY?

US President Donald Trump told reporters that the US Department of Justice had nothing to do with the investigation into Omar, using the expressions "complainer" and "horrible person" for Omar. Trump said, "Omar comes from a country that is not a country. Then she comes here and complains about our constitution."

WHAT HAPPENED?

Omar was attacked by spraying liquid with a syringe during her speech last January. Omar stated that US President Trump has been targeting her since she was first elected to Congress seven years ago, and said, "Whenever the US President uses hateful language targeting me and the society I represent, there is a jump in death threats against me."
