Here’s a rewritten version of your news story with a clearer, more neutral flow while keeping your points intact:
Some media outlets want you to think that President Trump is targeting Representative Ilhan Omar solely because he dislikes her. But a new report from the New York Times shows that the investigation into Omar’s finances actually began under President Joe Biden.

The Justice Department under the Biden administration opened an investigation into Representative Ilhan Omar, Democrat of Minnesota, in 2024 to scrutinize her finances, campaign spending, and interactions with a foreign citizen, according to people familiar with the matter.
The inquiry, initiated by the U.S. attorney’s office in Washington and the department’s public integrity unit in June of that year, appears to have stalled for lack of evidence, according to one of the people who requested anonymity to discuss internal department matters.
