> The Wall Street Journal reports that the Trump administration is investigating Democratic Representative Ilhan Omar with a view to revoking her citizenship and eventually deporting her. Investigators have subpoenaed relatives and reviewed immigration records. Omar’s office called the inquiry baseless; the investigation itself does not revoke citizenship or authorize deportation.
