联邦官员于周一清晨突袭了明尼苏达州民主党众议员伊尔汉·奥马尔的住所，据称此举与一名亲属在奥马尔童年时期提交的该议员移民文件的调查有关。
Federal officers raided Minnesota Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar’s home early Monday morning, reportedly related to an investigation into the lawmaker’s immigration paperwork, filed by a relative when Omar was a child.
此次搜查由国土安全部调查局（Homeland Security Investigations）执行，该机构是国土安全部的一个分支，负责刑事调查。根据司法部发言人的说法，该机构“执行了一份司法授权的搜查令”。一位匿名消息人士据称“熟悉情况”向NBC新闻透露，此次突袭是一项涉及举报人的多年调查的一部分。CNN也报道称，一名联邦法官批准了该搜查令，但未透露法官姓名。
The search was conducted by Homeland Security Investigations, a branch of the Department of Homeland Security that manages criminal investigations, and, according to a Justice Department spokesperson, “executed a judicially authorized search warrant” the agency secured. An anonymous source reportedly “familiar with the situation” alleged to NBC News that the raid was part of a years-long investigation involving whistleblowers. CNN also reported that a federal judge approved the search warrant but did not name the judge.
白宫边境事务沙皇、代理ICE局长汤姆·霍曼上个月在福克斯新闻节目中表示，国土安全部正在就奥马尔议员涉嫌未具体说明的“刑事”行为进行调查，但他声称自己“无法透露正在发生事情的具体细节”。
White House border czar Tom Homan, the acting head of ICE, stated on Fox News last month that Homeland Security was investigating Rep. Omar for alleged unspecified “criminal” conduct, but claimed he couldn’t “give the specifics of what’s happening.”
“如果有人犯了移民违规行为，如果有人犯了婚姻欺诈或类似行为，无论他们是否是国会议员，没有人能够凌驾于法律之上，”霍曼当时说道。“所以，我就说到这里。我们将让HSI——国土安全部调查局——继续进行调查。”霍曼在周一早上的福克斯新闻采访中确认，搜查确实已经进行。
“If someone committed an immigration violation, if someone committed marriage fraud or anything like that, regardless if they’re a congressman or not, no one’s above the law,” Homan said at the time. “So, I’ll leave it at that. We’ll let HSI, Homeland Security Investigations, continue the investigation.”In a Monday morning Fox interview, Homan confirmed that the search had taken place.
奥马尔于1995年，当时12岁，因索马里国内持续的内战移民至美国。她于2000年成为美国公民。唐纳德·特朗普及其政府多次以种族为由针对奥马尔——她是一名进步派民主党人，经常批评政府的政策——这助长了针对她及其他有色人种议员以及明尼苏达州索马里裔居民的进一步暴力威胁。
Omar immigrated to the US from Somalia in 1995, when she was 12 years old, amid the ongoing civil war in the country. She became a naturalized US citizen in 2000. Donald Trump and his administration have regularly racially targeted Omar —a progressive Democrat and frequent critic of the administration’s policies—fueling further violent threats against her and other lawmakers of color, and people from Somalia living in Minnesota .
特朗普及其他白宫官员多次提及“Feeding Our Future”欺诈案（该案件涉及该州内的索马里裔美国人社区成员），以此为借口，为2025年末移民官员在该地区实施的暴力行为辩护。这些暴力行为属于美国移民与海关执法局（ICE）的“Metro Surge”行动的一部分。
Trump and other White House officials have repeatedly cited the Feeding Our Future fraud scandal that involved members of the state’s Somali American community to justify the mass violence by immigration officers in the area as part of ICE’s Operation Metro Surge in late 2025.
这次突袭发生在奥马尔议员位于华盛顿地区的住宅，距离11月中旬的选举仅有22天——而她正是此次选举的热门人选。这一时间安排引发了更多质疑，因为根据司法部的规定，联邦检察官和特工不得通过操控调查或指控的时机来影响选举结果。虽然这并非具有法律约束力的规定，但司法部历来都遵守这一惯例，在选举前60天内会暂停所有相关行动。
特朗普及其支持的“MAGA”运动曾多次针对前FBI局长詹姆斯·科米及其领导的整个FBI机构，部分原因正是科米对特朗普及前国务卿希拉里·克林顿的调查时机及所谓的政治动机。
The timing of the raid on Rep. Omar’s Washington-area home—22 days before the November midterms, in which she is a heavy favorite for re-election—adds additional scrutiny, as Justice Department policy prohibits federal prosecutors and agents from timing investigations or charges to affect election outcomes. While not a binding rule, the Justice Department has historically complied by pausing all related actions in the 60 days before an election. (Trump and the wider MAGA movement have repeatedly targeted former FBI head James Comey, and that agency as a whole, in part over the timing and supposed political motivations of the FBI’s own investigations under Comey into both Trump and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.)
“美国人看得很清楚，”明尼苏达州州长蒂姆·沃尔兹在社交媒体上写道。“特朗普总统正在滥用职权，在选举前几周针对政治对手。”
“Americans see this for what it is,” Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, a Democrat who the Trump administration has also targeted , wrote on social media. “President Trump is abusing his power to go after political opponents weeks before an election.”
“我没事。请不要误会：这其实是一种针对政治敌人的行为，也是将联邦执法部门当作政治工具的企图，”奥马尔议员在周一下午的社交媒体上写道。“这只是他政治恐吓行为的又一次升级。我不会被吓倒。”
“I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement,” Rep. Omar posted on social media on Monday afternoon. “This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.”I’m ok.
“我没事。请不要误会：这其实是一种针对政治敌人的行为，也是将联邦执法部门当作政治工具的企图。十年来，特朗普一直用毫无根据的谎言和诽谤手段针对我。这只不过是他政治恐吓行为的又一次升级。我不会被吓倒。”——伊尔汉·奥马尔（Ilhan Omar）2026-10-12T16:01:52.513Z
Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation.I will not be silenced. —Ilhan Omar (@ilhanmn.bsky.social) 2026-10-12T16:01:52.513Z
