Trump calls Ilhan Omar a ‘terrible person’ after federal search of her home, says he takes no position on possible deportation

President Donald Trump renewed his criticism of Democratic Representative Ilhan Omar on Tuesday, a day after federal authorities searched her residence in the Washington, D.C., area. Asked whether he wanted her deported, Trump said he took no position; it remains unclear whether deportation is being considered.

Sources told ABC News that the investigation into Omar relates to her immigration paperwork. Omar is a sitting member of Congress facing reelection in three weeks. First elected in 2018, she was the first Somali American in Congress and became a naturalized U.S. citizen in 2000.
