The reprehensible Ilhan Omar, who married her brother in order to get him immigration papers in the US, claimed this week that her son had been pulled over by ICE agents in Minnesota while he was out running an errand to Target.
But DHS is now refuting Omar’s claim, saying it never happened:
ICE has absolutely ZERO record of its officers or agents pulling over Congresswoman Omar’s son.
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. Under the Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, DHS law enforcement uses “reasonable suspicion” to make arrests.
