Youngstown Crowd Chants 'Deport' at Trump Rally After Omar Home Raid

Summary
Hours after federal agents searched Rep. Ilhan Omar’s home, a Youngstown rally crowd chanted “deport” as Donald Trump attacked the Minnesota Democrat and Somali immigrants.
The search was tied to a criminal fraud investigation into Omar’s immigration paperwork, according to two sources, and the Justice Department confirmed Homeland Security Investigations executed a judicially authorized warrant.
Trump linked Omar to broader security fears, citing last week’s Minnesota homecoming shooting and the FBI’s arrest of a Somali immigrant accused of plotting an ISIS-style Mall of America attack.
Omar said she was unharmed and called the raid an attempt to target a political enemy, accusing Trump of escalating a decade of lies, smears and intimidation against her.
