Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson Federal agents have searched the Washington, D.C., home of Congresswoman Ilhan Omar—and the investigation is raising major questions in Washington. Homeland Security Investigations executed a search warrant Monday morning at the residence of the Minnesota Democrat. The Justice Department confirms that the warrant was authorized by a judge and that the search is part of an ongoing federal criminal investigation. Sources familiar with the case say investigators are examining immigration paperwork completed when Omar was a child. Omar denies wrongdoing and calls the search politically motivated. So what exactly are federal investigators looking for? What evidence has been made public? And what happens next? We'll separate the confirmed facts from the allegations in this developing story. ZELENSKYY ACCUSES PUTIN OF DEFYING TRUMP'S CEASEFIRE ANNOUNCEMENT President Donald Trump announced what he described as an immediate energy ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine. But Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says Russian attacks on Ukraine's power and energy facilities have continued. Zelenskyy is accusing Vladimir Putin of rejecting American peace efforts and calling for greater international pressure on Moscow. Ukraine says it is willing to halt strikes against Russian energy infrastructure if Russia reciprocates. Can the White House bring both countries to an enforceable agreement? And what does the continuing conflict mean for energy prices and the war's next phase? We'll examine the latest developments. MORTGAGE RATES ABOVE 7% THROUGH 2027? If you're waiting for mortgage rates to drop before buying a house, a new forecast may not be the news you wanted. Mortgage Bankers Association chief economist Mike Fratantoni predicts that the average 30-year mortgage rate will remain above 7% through the end of 2027. The MBA projects a 7.3% average rate in the final quarter of 2026. Persistent inflation, elevated Treasury yields and government borrowing are among the factors contributing to the outlook. We'll explain what the forecast means for prospective homebuyers, current homeowners considering refinancing and families trying to make the numbers work. And we'll discuss why even a small difference in mortgage rates can substantially change a monthly payment.
