Homan says Ilhan Omar could be stripped of naturalization, deported if immigration fraud is proven

Border czar Tom Homan said Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., could be denaturalized and deported if investigators find that she committed immigration fraud, repeating his assertion that no one is above the law after her home was raided and cellphone seized.

“Of course, if you lie during the naturalization process, there is a process to denaturalize somebody. We’ve done it before… And certainly, if the evidence points that way, that could happen,” Homan told “The Big Weekend Show” on Saturday.

Omar will “be held to the same standards you and I are held [to]. If she violated the law, then she’ll be held accountable,” he added, declining to discuss the specifics of the investigation into the congresswoman.

“I said over a year ago, the allegations were made clear, and it would be investigated, and they are investigating it,” he said. “I’m not going to get ahead of the bureau or HSI, but I’ve been told they have a strong case, and we’ll let the evidence lead where it leads.”

Omar is under federal investigation over allegations that she or her father lied about her birth year on immigration paperwork to obtain her citizenship when her family fled Somalia in the late 1990s.

Her father became a U.S. citizen in 2000. Omar was believed to be 17 at the time, and, as a minor, automatically qualified for citizenship under U.S. law along with him. But, recently, it’s been alleged she was actually 18 and would have needed to go through the process herself at that point.

Omar and other Democrats, including House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., have denounced the probe as political persecution of one of President Donald Trump’s detractors weeks before a critical election.

Federal agents raided Omar’s Washington, D.C., home earlier this week and took her cellphone and other possessions.

Asked whether the federal government has reason to investigate any type of wrongdoing beyond immigration fraud, Homan said he wouldn’t go there.

“That’s a question for the FBI. I know things, but that’s the question for FBI,” he said.

Fox News Digital reached out to Omar’s office for comment but did not immediately hear back.
