A federal investigation into Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) is reportedly being called “World War 11,” a reference to the Somali native’s infamous gaffe last year, when she seemingly read “World War II” as “World War Eleven” at a Democrat press conference.
\n\nNews of the investigation broke on Monday, but details around the probe remain unclear. Omar’s home in Washington, DC, was raided by agents with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), suggesting an immigration-related investigation.
\n\n“Today in the Washington, DC, area, Homeland Security Investigations executed a judicially authorized search warrant secured by the Department of Justice,” a Department of Justice (DOJ) official told Fox News Digital. “This enforcement action is part of an ongoing federal investigation.”
\n\nThe Washington Post reports that federal investigators are calling the investigation into Omar “World War 11” — a reference to her gaffe during a press conference in January 2025 where she compared Trump’s immigration enforcement to the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II.
\n\nIn July, during the White House Correspondents Association Dinner, President Donald Trump mocked Omar’s gaffe by joking that she calls her brother “husband #1,” a reference to the immigration fraud allegations that have been made against her for years.
