国会民主党的私人短信群在周一因国土安全部特工在华盛顿特区搜查众议员伊尔汉·奥马尔（D-明尼苏达州）的住所而充满了恐惧和愤怒。
Congressional Democrats' private text chains lit up with fear and anger on Monday after Department of Homeland Security agents searched Rep. Ilhan Omar's (D-Minn.) home in Washington, D.C.
为何重要：此次搜查发生在中期选举前不到一个月，立即在民主党中拉响警报，认为“十月惊喜”可能还会继续发生，正如一位资深民主党人对Axios所说。
Why it matters: The search came less than a month before the midterms immediately setting off alarm bells among Democrats that "more October surprises" could be coming, as one senior Democrat told Axios.
- 众议员贝卡·巴林特（D-佛蒙特州）对Axios表示：“我们预计会有更多此类事件。”
• Rep. Becca Balint (D-Vt.) told Axios: "We expect more of this kind of thing." Driving the news:
新闻推动：国土安全部调查局表示，作为一项正在进行的移民调查的一部分，“依照司法授权的搜查令”对奥马尔的住所进行了搜查，司法部在一份声明中如此说明。
Homeland Security Investigations "executed a judicially authorized search warrant" on Omar's home as part of an ongoing immigration probe, the Justice Department said in a statement.
- 司法部未详细说明搜查令的范围或主题。
• DOJ has not detailed the scope or subject of the search warrant.
- 福克斯新闻报道称，该调查涉及奥马尔的移民文件。她于1995年作为12岁的索马里难民来到美国。
• Fox News reported the investigation concerns Omar's immigration paperwork. She came to the United States in 1995 as a 12-year-old refugee from Somalia.
- 奥马尔办公室和民主党众议院领导层迅速谴责此次行动是“滥用职权”，奥马尔的一位发言人表示她“没有做错任何事。”
• Omar's office and Democratic House leadership quickly denounced the action as an "abuse of power," with a spokesperson for Omar saying she "has done nothing wrong."
我们所听到的：“人们愤怒不已……[这是]专制暴君和独裁者所做的事，”一位资深众议院民主党人表示，他要求匿名以转述同事的私下对话。
What we're hearing: "People are outraged. ... [This is] what authoritarian tyrants and dictators do," said the senior House Democrat, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to relay colleagues' private conversations.
- 另一位众议院民主党人对Axios表示，“短信上的讨论”显示“人们非常愤怒。”
• Another House Democrat told Axios "the chatter on texts" is that "folks are irate." Zoom out:
全局视角：民主党人指责此次突袭符合特朗普利用联邦资源提升共和党并针对其政治对手的更广泛模式。
Democrats allege the raid fits into a broader pattern of Trump using federal resources to boost Republicans and target his political opponents.
- 国土安全部就在上周因发表一份针对宾夕法尼亚州民主党人珍内尔·斯蒂尔森的声明而陷入争议，批评者称该声明违反了限制联邦官员从事党派活动的联邦法律。
• DHS became embroiled in controversy just last week after a statement targeting Pennsylvania Democrat Janelle Stelson, which critics said violates federal laws restricting partisan activities by federal officials.
- 特朗普也因在中期选举前夕使用纳税人资金制作类似竞选的电视广告，宣传他及其政府而受到批评。
• Trump has also come under fire for using taxpayer funds to run campaign-style television ads touting him and his administration in the run-up to the midterms.
“特朗普总统将在中期选举前继续试图恐吓和欺凌美国人，” 巴林特说，并补充道：“我们怀疑他会不择手段以维持权力和控制。”
"President Trump will keep trying to intimidate and bully Americans ahead of the midterms," said Balint, adding, "We suspect he will try anything to stay in power and in control."
- 众议员马克·波坎（民主党-威斯康星州）表示，“当然会有”更多类似奥马尔突袭的事件，称特朗普是“最小气、最糟糕的人”，并且“控制不住自己。”
• Rep. Mark Pocan (D-Wis.) said that "of course there will" be more like the Omar raid, saying Trump is "the pettiest, worst human being" and "can't help himself."
- 众议员贾里德·赫夫曼（民主党-加利福尼亚州）对Axios说：“这是一些严重的仇恨挑衅废话。这个政府简直令人厌恶。”
• Rep. Jared Huffman (D-Calif.) told Axios: "This is some serious hate-baiting bullshit. This administration is just despicable."
- 当被问及他是否预期会有更多类似事件时，赫夫曼说：“当然会。”
• Asked whether he expects more, Huffman said, "Of course." The other side:
另一方：一名国会共和党人对奥马尔的突袭表示欢迎，奥马尔长期以来一直是右翼因其移民身份而发动攻击的目标。
One congressional Republican cheered the raid on Omar, who has long been the target of right-wing attacks on her immigration status.
- “如果欺诈行为被证实，她应被取消国籍并驱逐出境，”众议员南希·梅斯（共和党-南卡罗来纳州）在X平台的一篇帖子中写道，并将周一的突袭与2022年FBI对马阿拉戈庄园的搜查进行了比较。
• "If the fraud is proven, she should be denaturalized and deported," Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) wrote in a post on X, also comparing Monday's raid to the 2022 FBI search of Mar-a-Lago.
- 白宫、司法部和国土安全部未对置评请求作出回应。什么众议院民主党领袖已经在暗示，如果他们重新夺回多数席位，将把此事纳入他们的监督议程。
• The White House, DOJ and DHS did not respond to a request for comment. What to House Democratic leaders are already signaling plans to wrap this into their oversight agenda if they retake the majority.
- “我们将对国土安全部和司法部的滥用职权行为进行全面追责，”众议院少数党领袖哈基姆·杰弗里斯（民主党-纽约州）及其副手在一份声明中表示。
• "We will deliver full accountability for the rogue abuse of power from the Department of Homeland Security and Department of Justice," House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) and his deputies said in a statement.
- 众议院司法委员会首席议员杰米·拉斯金（民主党-马里兰州）在一份声明中表示：“我们将要求就谁授权了这一滥用搜查以及谁实施了该搜查进行透明和问责。”
• House Judiciary Committee ranking member Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) said in a statement: "We will be demanding transparency and accountability as to who authorized this abusive search and who carried it out."
