     Judge limited DOJ access to Rep. Ilhan Omar's records: Lawyer explains

     The Trump administration pushed for an unusually aggressive search of Rep. Ilhan Omar’s house in recent days in an immigration fraud probe that targets the congresswoman, possible false statements made on government documents, and a potential conspiracy, according to multiple people familiar with the investigation. Prosecutors, however, first had to contend with a federal magistrate judge, in a prolonged back-and-forth that hasn’t previously been reported. Judge Matthew Sharbaugh of the DC District Court ultimately limited how the Justice Department could access Omar’s documents in Monday’s search, before he would approve the warrant, because of her role as a member of Congress and the Constitutional protections that affords, multiple people familiar with the investigation told CNN. How a judge's ruling impacted the DOJ search of Rep. Ilhan Omar's house. What was the legal basis for the ruling? How would a statute of limitations play into any potential charges against Rep. Omar? CNN NewsNight panel debates the validity of the immigration probe into Omar. Watch 24/7 live news with CNN Headlines: Stream more on CNN with an All Access subscription:
