It was a week of legal turmoil for one of America's most recognizable members of Congress. Early Monday morning, federal agents with Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), the chief investigative arm of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), executed a search warrant on Washington, D.C. home of Rep. The raid was part of an ongoing criminal probe into Omar's immigration status, with sources telling Fox News Digital that authorities are scrutinizing whether she or her father committed fraud when filling out paperwork for her to become a U.S. citizen.
Attorney for the District of Washington, D.C., Jeannine Pirro, announced her office was investigating Omar's financial disclosures, which had previously been subject to public scrutiny and congressional oversight, but never by authorities. FEDERAL AGENTS RAID ILHAN OMAR’S DC HOME AMID IMMIGRATION FRAUD INVESTIGATION Fox News Digital breaks down what we know so far about each investigation: In May 2025, Omar filed financial disclosure forms for the year 2024, a required for every member of Congress to complete every year. I showed that she had between $6 million and $30 million in assets connected to two businesses run by her husband, Tim Mynett.
One was was a venture capital firm, and the other a California winery. Her financial disclosures from the year prior, covering 2023, said those assets were only valued at between $15,000 and $51,000 total. The now-defunct winery, eStCru LLC, saw its reported valuation jump from between $15,000 and $50,000 in 2023 to between $1 million and $5 million in 2024.
Rose Lake Capital LLC showed an even sharper increase, rising from a reported value of between $1 and $1,000 in 2023 to between $5 million and $25 million the following year. The massive reported spike in net worth over the one-year span raised eyebrows, leading a watchdog group called the National Legal and Policy Center to file a complaint with the Office of Congressional Conduct in February of this year. 'SQUAD' DEM DISMISSES FRAUD PROBE SPECULATION AFTER $29M NET-WORTH DROP Less than a month after the complaint was filed, Omar amended her 2025 disclosure form. The new filing reduced the couple's combined reported assets to between $18,004 and $95,000, and said the businesses had zero value after accounting for liabilities.
ILHAN OMAR'S OFFICE SAYS SHE'S ‘NOT A MILLIONAIRE’ AFTER $30M FILING REVISED DOWN TO UNDER $100K: REPORT Omar blamed an accounting error, and has since repeatedly insisted that she is not a millionaire. In September, the Office of Congressional Conduct voted 5-1 to recommend that the House Ethics Committee dismiss misconduct allegations stemming from the financial disclosures. But the hubbub caught the eye of Pirro, who confirmed on Fox News' "America Reports" Tuesday that her office is investigating the discrepancies.
Further details about the investigation have not yet been released. Monday's judicially authorized raid of Omar's Washington, D.C. home sent shockwaves through the political world, with many critics calling it politically motivated because it occurred three weeks before November's general elections. The Trump administration has denied those accusations.
