Ilhan Omar believes Trump raid on home was meant to 'intimidate and scare people' from voting

What happened: Rep. Ilhan Omar said in an interview with MS NOW that the raid on her Washington, D.C., home was meant to intimidate people from voting in the midterms. Homeland Security Investigations raided the home last Monday over potential immigration fraud. Why it matters: Omar said the raid had likely encouraged people to vote, citing long lines at early voting sites and high demand for rides. Border czar Tom Homan has said Omar could be denaturalized if the allegations are proven, and Trump said she could go to jail.
