Why are federal investigators targeting Minnesota’s governor and mayor over immigration comments?
Federal investigators taking aim at Minnesota's top leaders. I'm Angelo Bavaro, Fox News. The Justice Department is reportedly investigating Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Fry over whether their comments were interfering with immigration efforts in Minneapolis.
Mayor Fry says the probe is meant to intimidate him. Governor Walz responded in part, weaponizing the justice system against your opponents is an authoritarian tactic. The only person not being investigated for the shooting of Renee Good is the federal agent who shot her. And now a U.S. district judge appointed by Biden has ruled that officers cannot use tear gas on protesters who are peacefully demonstrating following a civil rights lawsuit. DHS Secretary Trisha McLaughlin says these protesters are not peaceful.

Fox's Matt Finn. President Trump is pitching a new health care proposal.
President Trump's great health care plan, as he calls it, would eliminate federal dollars subsidizing insurers and instead create health savings accounts backed by the federal government.
Our plan would reduce your insurance premiums by stopping government payoffs to big insurance companies and sending the money directly to the people.

What does new research say about Tylenol use during pregnancy and the alleged autism risk?
New research bolstering evidence that Tylenol does not raise the risk of autism despite claims by the Trump administration.
The research review published Friday in the Lancet Obstetrics, Gynecology and Women's Health. It finds taking Tylenol during pregnancy does not increase the risk of autism, ADHD or intellectual disabilities. Last year, President Trump promoted ties between Tylenol and autism, advising pregnant women not to take it. One of the papers cited on its webpage, published in BMC Environmental Health, analyzed 46 previous studies. It supported an association between Tylenol exposure during pregnancy and neurodevelopmental disorders. Debra Valentine, Fox News.
