Governor Tim Walz, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Fry, St. Paul Mayor Kali, State Attorney General Keith Ellison, and Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty

Whether it's a public official, whether it's a law enforcement officer, no one is above the law in this state or in this country. And people will be held accountable. This state is a mess right now. We've seen the chaos. And it's constant.

Chapter 5: What contempt charges are being advanced against Bill and Hillary Clinton?
This Justice Department investigation, sparked by calls for accountability in the face of violence, chaos, and the killing of Renee Good, does not seek justice.

Customs and Border Protection Commander Greg Bovino at a Tuesday briefing responding to claims that the surge is political in nature.
Leaders like Tim Waltz or Mayor Fry have relied on heated rhetoric and accusations that distract from the facts. The facts are that federal agents are arresting murderers, Rapists, child predators, cartel-connected criminals, and other individuals who pose a real danger to the people of Minneapolis. What we do is legal, ethical, and moral.
Everything we do every day is legal, ethical, moral, well-grounded in law. We will continue enforcing the law. We will continue making arrests. And we will continue working to keep Minneapolis safe.
Mayor Fry's subpoena requesting him to appear before a grand jury on February 3rd. It is unclear if the other subpoenas have similar requests. Meanwhile, the DOJ is sending more prosecutors to Minnesota, following a wave of recent departures that have strained federal case capacity, reports the Washington Post.
One of the investigations now drawing scrutiny reportedly centering on the anti-ICE agitators who deliberately disrupted a Sunday church service at City's Church in St. Paul, confronting a preacher mid-worship.

I'm not part of, I'm not part of the group. I'm just here photographing. I'm a journalist.
I'm not, I'm not, I'm just. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem promising arrests are coming Tuesday on Newsmax.
That pastor really did a remarkable thing there, trying to protect his parishioners. And even the parishioners, I imagine, felt and feel intimidated. They did, and there's going to be arrests in the next several hours, Greta. There will be arrests tied to that, and people will be brought to justice for how they violated the law in that situation.

How so? Can you give us some details, please?
The deal is going to be put out pretty soon. We'll see. It's right now a little bit in progress, but pretty far along. It gets us everything we need it to get.
Does it still include the United States having ownership of Greenland like you've said you wanted?
It's a long-term deal. It's the ultimate long-term deal. I think it puts everybody in a really good position. especially as it pertains to security and minerals and everything else.
