U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar will move out of her Washington, D.C., home that federal agents searched last week, she said Wednesday, noting that attention brought on by the raid has made her feel unsafe there.
Federal authorities are investigating potential fraud in her family’s immigration paperwork and have issued grand jury subpoenas to some of her relatives, a person briefed on the investigation told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss an ongoing investigation.
Omar, who was born in Somalia and is a naturalized U.S. citizen, said Wednesday in her first interview since the search that she is “confident in the fact that I didn’t do anything wrong.”

I mean that was the point. It was obviously for intimidation and it worked. So… Mission accomplished…
What even would a search be good for? Lets just play with the scenario here, and assume they have good intentions. They don’t, but now we’re in make-believe-land for a second. The dipsshits think she did something wrong years ago filing paperwork wrong or whatever the excuse is. Who would keep the proof of their wrongdoings for years afterwards? “I better save these documents forever, that could undeniably get me deported due to my wrongdoings”.
Even under the most generous of circumstances, raiding her home makes no sense.
It makes no sense because they don’t have good intentions. If you assume they have bad intentions, then the search is obviously part of their method of intimidation and harassment of a political opponent and makes perfect sense from their twisted and disgusting perspective.

Why is it so hard for people to go along with a hypothetical?
