Ilhan Omar posts campaign video as Trump warns she could face jail

Key Points:

• Rep. Ilhan Omar posted a campaign video for the first time since her Washington, D.C., home was raided by Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) in connection to a probe into potential immigration fraud involving her or her father.
• Omar thanked supporters for donations and urged for more financial support, framing the raid as political intimidation by President Trump and his administration ahead of the midterm elections.
• She did not directly address the investigation but criticized Trump, asserting that she and her allies will not be intimidated or silenced, and pledged to continue campaigning for Democratic victories in the midterms.
• Omar’s whereabouts since the raid remain unclear; speculation about her fleeing the country was countered by reports that federal agents seized her passport and phone during the search.
• Trump warned Omar could face jail time if allegations are proven, while Omar and her team condemned the raid as a politically motivated abuse of power targeting her as a political enemy.
