In renewed attacks against Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., President Donald Trump said on social media Sunday night that the congresswoman "should be in jail, or even a worse punishment, sent back to Somalia," which he called "one of the absolutely worst countries in the World."

"She could help to MAKE SOMALIA GREAT AGAIN!" the president wrote.

His social media post comes after he earlier in the day accused Omar and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz of opposing ICE action to distract from alleged fraud in the state.

The president has repeatedly called out Omar and the Somali community in Minnesota over the last few months.

In a statement to ABC News on Sunday, Dept. of Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said that federal agents have made over 3,000 arrests in Minnesota since the Trump administration's Operation Metro Surge began in December.

Among those arrested were nearly 150 U.S citizens for "assault or obstructing law enforcement," according to DHS.

"Rioters and terrorists have assaulted law enforcement, launched fireworks at them, slashed the tires of their vehicles, and vandalized federal property. Others have chosen to ignore commands and have attempted to obstruct law enforcement operations and used their vehicles as weapons against our officers," McLaughlin said.

She said that federal agents "used the minimum amount of force necessary to protect themselves, the public, and federal property."

President Donald Trump on Sunday blasted Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., for opposing the ongoing ICE actions there, accusing them of doing it to distract from alleged fraud in the state.

“ICE is removing some of the most violent criminals in the World from our Country, and bring [sic] them back home, where they belong. Why is Minnesota fighting this?” Trump asked in his social media post, referring to the people being detained as “murderers” and “drug dealers,” and the protesters as "thugs" that "include many highly paid professional agitators and anarchists."

“Is this really what Minnesota wants?" Trump continued. He then referenced the governor and Ilhan, accusing them, without evidence, of trying to keep “the focus of attention off the 18 Billion Dollar, Plus, FRAUD, that has taken place in the State.”

“Don’t worry, we’re on it!” he added.

The Department of Health and Human Services is freezing $10 billion in federal funds in five Democrat-run states over allegations of fraudulent child-care programming, an HHS official confirmed to ABC News earlier this month. The HHS official confirmed that the five states are California, Colorado, Illinois, Minnesota and New York. It's unclear if this is the alleged fraud to which Trump referred in his post Sunday.

The post comes as Trump has repeatedly threatened to use the Insurrection Act to send military personnel into Minnesota, though he appeared to back off those threats in recent days, telling reporters Friday: “I don't think there's any reason right now to use it, but if I needed it, I'd use it.”

Neither Walz nor Omar immediately replied to Trump's Sunday social media post. However, Walz posted on Thursday what he called a "direct appeal to the President," saying in part, "Let's turn the temperature down. Stop this campaign of retribution. This is not who we are."

Some 1,500 active duty Army paratroopers have been put on alert for a potential deployment to Minnesota, according to two defense officials.

The soldiers are from the 11th Airborne Division, based at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in Alaska, one of the Army's premier infantry formations and a frontline force in the U.S. military presence in the Pacific, positioned to help deter China. The division is also the military's leading formation for Arctic warfare.

One official said the president had not made a final decision on whether to deploy two battalions. The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

"We are taking prudent steps to prepare active-duty Army forces," the official said. "This doesn't mean they will deploy; we are preparing options."

Meanwhile, members of the Minnesota National Guard remain on state orders under the authority of Gov. Tim Walz. It would be unusual for federalized active-duty troops and state-activated Guard forces to be deployed simultaneously and while serving under different legal frameworks. National Guard units can also be federalized and placed under the president's command.

President Donald Trump on Thursday threatened to invoke the Insurrection Act to send in the U.S. military as tensions intensified in Minneapolis following a second shooting involving a federal officer during immigration operations. However, Trump later told reporters he didn't think there was "any reason right now to use it."

The 11th Airborne troops were recalled to base on Friday, amid the long holiday weekend, to stand by as a so-called quick reaction force, a rapid-deployment force, according to an internal notice to the unit's leadership, reviewed by ABC News.

A woman who was caught on video getting forcibly pulled from a vehicle by agents in Minneapolis on Tuesday said she feels "lucky to be alive."

The woman, Aliya Rahman, said she was driving to an appointment at the Traumatic Brain Injury Center when the incident occurred.

"Masked agents dragged me from my car and bound me like an animal, even after I told them that I was disabled," she said in a statement on Thursday. "This happened just two blocks from where Renee Good was murdered, so I am very aware that this confrontation could have ended differently for me."

Rahman said that while in federal custody she asked for a doctor but was taken to a detention center, where she said she lost consciousness before being taken to a hospital.

"I may have more to say in the coming days but for now, I am relieved to be safe and ask for privacy as I heal from my injuries and navigate how to move forward from this traumatic experience," she said.

In a statement on the incident, Homeland Security said a crowd "began impeding law enforcement operations" of ICE officers and that several people were taken into custody for assault.

"One agitator ignored multiple commands by an officer to move her vehicle away from the scene, she was arrested for obstruction," the statement, which did not identify Rahman by name, said.

In video of the incident, Rahman can be heard saying she is disabled and was trying to go to the doctor.
