Pillay made her comments in The Hague, where she is a judge at the International Court of Justice.

Federal agents searched the Washington home of Ilhan Omar, a Democratic member of Congress from Minnesota.

Omar, who came to the United States from Somalia as a child, said the search was an attempt to target political opponents.

Kelly Clarkson says she had a bad shopping experience at Art of Play, a store in Brooklyn, New York.

She says she asked about buying a singing bird called Molly and an employee told her it cost $15,000, then offered to find something comparable.

Clarkson disputes that account and says the bird had a price tag beside it.
