Text messages recovered from Rep. Ilhan Omar’s (D-MN) sister’s phone helped federal investigators obtain the warrant to search the congresswoman’s Washington, D.C., home, according to a new report.
The evidence was revealed in a New York Times report.
Authorities seized author and healthcare executive Sahra Noor’s phone earlier this year.
The device was taken while authorities were examining a possible conspiracy to commit immigration fraud.
Messages exchanged among family members reportedly helped investigators persuade a federal judge to authorize last Monday’s search.
The report identifies evidence behind the raid that Omar has dismissed as political targeting by President Donald Trump.
