Ilhan Omar hit with expulsion threat as GOP lawmaker vows to boot her from Congress over DOJ probe

What happened: Rep. Randy Fine, R-Fla., told Fox News Digital he will pursue expelling Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., if the Justice Department finds her guilty of immigration fraud. A federal court filing identified Omar under another name and listed an alias. Key numbers: Omar became a U.S. citizen in 2000. Her D.C. residence was searched on Oct. 12. Why it matters: Fine said he assumes Omar is not a citizen and would demand expulsion immediately if removal is not automatic. Omar, a naturalized citizen, has denied wrongdoing and called the investigation politically motivated.
