Deal Score0
The U.S. Department of Justice has launched a criminal investigation into Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey. The probe is examining whether their policies limiting cooperation with federal immigration authorities (ICE) constitute obstruction of justice. The investigation stems from a 2022 incident where state officials declined to detain an immigrant later charged with assault. Minnesota leaders have denounced the inquiry as politically motivated.
