Rep. Ilhan Omar said federal agents seized 17 items, including her phones and her husband's notebooks, during an Oct. 12 raid on her Washington, D.C. home tied to an investigation into her citizenship status. In her first interview since the search, Omar said agents arrived around 6 a.m. while her husband and son were home, and that she must move because of threats following her address becoming public.
