他们指责政府出于政治原因追究明尼苏达州议员的责任。历史上,司法部一直避免在初选或大选前60天对政治候选人进行高度可见的调查措施。奥马尔在X平台的一篇帖子中将此次搜查描述为“针对政治敌人的企图,并将联邦执法武器化”。“特朗普已经对我进行了10年的无端谎言和抹黑运动。这只是他政治恐吓运动中的最新升级,”她说,并补充道:“我不会被沉默。”
They accused the administration of pursuing the Minnesota lawmaker for political reasons. Historically, the Justice Department has refrained from carrying out highly visible investigative measures against political candidates during the 60 days before a primary or general election. In a post on X, Omar described the search as an “attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement.”“For 10 years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation,” she said, adding, “I will not be silenced.”
