The Trump Administration has fired back at Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) after she made a disturbing claim about her son being targeted by immigration enforcement recently.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Omar alleged on Sunday during an interview with a local news outlet that ICE agents pulled her son over and demanded that he produce documentation to prove that he was a U.S. citizen.
Once he produced his passport identification, they let him go.
“Yesterday, after he made a stop at Target, he did get pulled over by ICE agents, and once he was able to produce his passport ID, they did let him go,” Omar claimed in an interview with Esme Murphy on WCCO.
Omar also claimed during the interview that immigration agents previously entered a mosque attended by her son. The agents supposedly left without incident.
On Tuesday, the Department of Homeland Security responded on X to Omar’s assertion about her son being pulled over and did not mince words.
“ICE has absolutely ZERO record of its officers or agents pulling over Congresswoman Omar’s son,” the post reads. “With no evidence, it is shameful that Congresswoman Omar would level accusations to demonize ICE as part of a PR stunt.”
“Allegations that ICE engages in ‘racial profiling’ are disgusting, reckless, and categorically FALSE. What makes someone a target for immigration enforcement is if they are illegally in the U.S.—NOT their skin color, race, or ethnicity,” the post adds.
“Under the Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, DHS law enforcement uses ‘reasonable suspicion’ to make arrests.”

This news comes as Omar faces potential prosecution for immigration fraud after allegedly marrying her brother to help him obtain American citizenship.
Border Czar Tom Homan said in an interview last week on Newsmax that he had asked for the immigration records of Omar to be pulled for his review over credible allegations that the Somali refugee married her brother to help him gain residency in the United States.
The Gateway Pundit was the first to report on Omar’s alleged marriage to her brother.
In 2017, Rep. Omar swore under penalty of perjury while divorcing her husband (brother?) that she hadn’t seen Ahmed N. Elmi since 2011 and didn’t know anyone who could help her contact him.
But evidence emerged in September 2019 that Rep. Ilhan Omar may have indeed married her brother, and that her real name may be Ilhan Nur Said.
A resurfaced tweet from 2013 links to a now-deleted Instagram post in which she refers to her father by the name Nur Said.
The tweet was later deleted after the news broke, but it was saved before it was deleted.
