The Trump administration has launched an investigation into Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey on allegations that they conspired to impede Department of Justice (DOJ) immigration raids. The Justice Department issued subpoenas for Walz and Frey as part of an investigation on Friday, accusing the two Democratic leaders of hindering federal law enforcement officers’ abilities to conduct immigration crackdowns in the state. The subpoenas escalate an increasingly bitter political battle between the Trump administration and Democratic leaders in Minnesota following the fatal shooting of Renee Good, an American, by an immigration officer last week in Minneapolis.
