What is the focus of the Justice Department's investigation in Minnesota?

Unknown 0:00
Justice Department investigation, which initially focused on Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, is expanding. The New York Times reports federal prosecutors have issued subpoenas to at least five Democratic officials in Minnesota, beyond Walz and Frey. Two people familiar with the matter tell the New York Times that prosecutors are seeking documents from the mayor of St. Paul, Kali Hare, the state attorney general, Keith Ellison, and Mary Moriarty, the Hennepin County attorney. halted all refugee admissions to the United States, including from Somalia, which is a terrible, terrible place and other dangerous places. And we also stopped the pirates because they get the same treatment as the drug boats.

So in Somalia, the Somalians, you know what they're good at. That's about the only thing they're good at is they're good at pirating ships at sea, big ships. So you have a huge oil tanker with millions of gallons, millions of barrels of oil. And if it gets hit by a big weapon, the whole thing blows up. And they don't want to fight because if they do, they're told by their insurance companies, do not hand over the ship. And they're not allowed to have any guns on the ship. They're literally — you have these massive ships being taken over by a Somalian small boat with a big weapon. Because if they hit the side of the ship, the ship can blow up to — I mean, you talk about a blow-up. Bad — we've seen some bad things happen.

And the insurance companies — some of these ships cost more than a billion dollars to build. And the insurance companies say, look, we'd rather give them money than — take a chance on a billion-dollar insurance policy. But they don't have to worry about it because we hit them the same way we hit the people with the drugs in their boat. They don't know what the hell happened. But all of a sudden, there are no pirates at sea. Do you notice? We haven't had a boat taken in a little while. Came out of Somalia, a really corrupt place. It's not a country. They don't have government. They don't have anything. I always hate to see this. Ilhan Omar, she comes from Somalia, a backward country, probably the worst country.
Unknown 2:16
They say it's the worst country in the world, if it's a country. I don't even think it's a country. There's no organization. They don't have police. They don't have military. They don't have anything. They just have people running around, killing each other and trying to pirate ships.

but uh... she'll come here and then she wants to tell us how to run our country the constitution says that i have a title to this i can't stand her they're looking at whether these local officials have violated a statute that makes it a crime to conspire to obstruct federal officers in the course of their duty uh... but what we're talking about here is first amendment protected activity by public officials elected officials in the state of minnesota and by various cities essentially advising their citizens on how to fulfill their civil rights and how to behave if they're confronted by ICE agents and denouncing what they see as an invasion of their community. Before we got on the air, I was watching video of a news conference by a local Minnesota police chief who said that even members of his own department

People of color entirely, he said, are being pulled over by masked ICE agents and who are demanding proof of citizenship. And only when they present their police ID are they allowed to go. These are men with guns drawn. This is happening every day around the country, but particularly in Minnesota. And these local officials are trying to put a stop to it. So we have an incredible clash here between the federal government, the awesome power of the Justice Department and the federal government, and local elected officials in a way that we haven't seen ever in the history of this country.

I think something's going to happen that's going to be very good for everybody. Nobody's done more for NATO than I have, as I said before, in every way.
