Rep. Omar Responds to Federal Home Search: “I Will Not Be Silenced

In a striking turn of events, Rep. Ilhan Omar took to social media to decry the FBI’s search of her Washington, D.C. residence on Monday morning, asserting that “this is an attempt to target political enemies.” The Justice Department has framed the incident as part of an ongoing criminal investigation. However, Omar’s allies are quick to label the actions as a clear misuse of authority by the Trump administration, especially given the proximity to the upcoming midterm elections. NBC’s Kelly O’Donnell covers the unfolding situation for TODAY.
