A Tuesday night police raid on the Minneapolis home of far-left Rep. Ilhan Omar’s son and roommate turned up guns and ammunition.
The raid targeted the roommate, 22-year-old Abdulrahman Abdi, who had previously been booked into the Hennepin County Jail on a weapons charge, as originally reported by Liz Collin of Alpha News.
NEW: Multiple law enforcement sources say a search warrant was conducted Tuesday night on the apartment where Congresswoman Ilhan Omar’s son lives in Minneapolis. Guns and ammunition were recovered from the scene.

“Officers initially stopped Abdi earlier Tuesday in the 200 block of 11th Street South and cited him for driving after his license was canceled and for failing to provide proof of insurance,” according to The Daily Wire. “He was released at the scene, but officers discovered a firearm while impounding his vehicle.”
“Police later located Abdi on Marquette Avenue and arrested him ‘without incident.’ He was booked into Hennepin County Jail on a weapons charge and later released,” the reporting continued.
After obtaining a search warrant, the police then targeted Abdi’s home.
Court records show Abdi’s criminal history runs deep and includes convictions for speeding, driving with a revoked license, using a cellphone while driving, and failing to provide proof of insurance.
“In 2024, he pleaded guilty to fleeing a police officer in a motor vehicle after prosecutors said he was driving a Jeep Grand Cherokee at 108 mph while racing alongside another vehicle,” The Daily Wire notes.
Critics weren’t surprised that Omar’s son would be residing with such a street hoodlum:
You are who you hang with.

I can’t believe a roommate brought guns and drugs to @IlhanMN‘s sons house where he spends countless hours everyday either studying or preparing for community service.
Oh wait, he’s a thug, just like mom.— Orwell 1984 (@MaineRed2020) August 27, 2026
Omar’s son isn’t the first in the family to get caught up in headline-generating drama. The congresswoman’s daughter made headlines in 2024 when she was arrested and suspended from Barnard College for participating in a pro-Hamas “encampment” at Columbia University.
Omar, for her part, publicly praised her daughter after the arrest, saying in a statement that she was “enormously proud” of her hijinks.
I am enormously proud of my daughter @israhirsi.
She has always led with courage and compassion, from organizing a statewide school walk out on the 20th anniversary of Columbine at the age of 15, to leading the biggest youth climate rally at our nation’s Capitol at 16, and now…— Ilhan Omar (@IlhanMN) April 19, 2024
The spoiled daughter, Isra Hirsi, traveled to Cuba earlier this year as part of a global delegation of communist degenerates organized by Code Pink. The delegation included leftist hate monger Hasan Piker.
“People are here from across the globe to express solidarity with the Cuban people,” Hirsi tweeted at the time. “People who are standing against the oppressive blockade exacerbated by the Trump administration.”
She and her fellow comrades stood up “against the oppressive blockade” by having a private, secluded party in a lavish hotel surrounded by poor, starving Cubans who reportedly had no electricity.
Cuban hospital patients reportedly die after power outages as Code Pink and liberal activists held a party and concert.
Liberal activists have also been accused of hypocrisy for staying in a 5 star hotel with electricity as Havana faces a blackout.

After Hirsi returned to the States, Omar once again took to publicly praising her for her spoiled behavior.
“I am incredibly proud of Isra and everyone who made the trip to Cuba,” she tweeted, adding that her daughter “is a brilliant young leader who has always worked hard to advocate for a more just world.”
