Trump's 'border czar' Tom Homan says Ilhan Omar could 'of course' be stripped of US citizenship and deported
Ilhan Omar and Sahra Noor. Federal investigators have subpoenaed Sahra Noor as part of a criminal fraud probe into Omar's immigration paperwork.
Tom Homan told Fox News that investigators have 'a strong case' against the Minnesota Democrat, whose Washington home was raided on 12 October. The investigation centres on allegations that her birth year was falsified — either by Omar or her father — to obtain citizenship. Had she been 18 rather than 17, automatic qualification would not have applied. Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin expects the case to go to a grand jury.
Barack Obama accused the Trump administration of 'transparent efforts to intimidate' Omar.
Mullin revealed that 'multiple warrants' were served on the same day as the raid.
House Majority Whip Tom Emmer said she should serve time 'and then get the hell out'.
