So please stay with us.
We've got the news you need to start your weekend.
The U.S.
Justice Department has launched a probe into Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Fry.
And Fierce Cat Lonsdorf has been following these developments and joins us now from Minneapolis.
Cat, thanks for being with us.
What's it like there?
And all this occurs as federal immigration officers continue to arrive and make arrests, yes?
And President Trump has at least been talking about invoking the Insurrection Act, which has happened some 30 times in U.S.
history.
Any indications this would be the latest?
I think if he does...
it would be a flagrant abuse of the Insurrection Act, unlike anything that's ever happened before in the history of the country.
And of course, late last night, there was news that the Department of Justice is investigating Mayor Fry and Governor Walz.
Of course, both are Democrats.
What's the latest?
And Bearscat Lonsdorf in Minneapolis.
Kat, thanks so much.
NPR's Joanna Kakissis is there and has been talking to people in Kyiv about how they're all getting by.
Joanna, thanks for being with us.
