Homan Confirms Federal Probe Into Ilhan Omar, Won't Name Cause

Homan Confirms Federal Probe Into Ilhan Omar, Won't Name Cause

Rep. Ilhan Omar faces a federal probe Homan confirmed on Fox News, while Secretary Mullin's brother-marriage claim remains unconfirmed by him.

  • Homan told Fox News: "I'm not going to comment on an ongoing criminal investigation."
  • DHS Secretary Mullin, not Homan, raised the claim that Omar married her own brother.
  • Jacqui Heinrich reported the exchange from Homan's Sunday Briefing interview, posted to X.

Why it matters: Confirming an investigation without confirming its cause lets an accusation pass as an established fact.
