Well, Donald Trump is once again weaponizing his Justice Department against his political enemies.

This time he's targeting officials in Minnesota.

MS now has confirmed that Minnesota Governor Tim Walls and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frye are under federal investigation by the Trump Justice Department.

The Washington Post adds this.

The Justice Department has issued subpoenas for Minnesota

Governor Tim Walls and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frye as part of an investigation alleging that the

two Democratic leaders are impeding federal law enforcement's abilities to do their jobs in the state.

Two people familiar with the matter confirmed Friday. Governor Tim

Walls responded in a statement saying, quote, two days ago, it was Alyssa Slotkin. Last week, it

was Jerome Powell. Before that, Mark Kelly, weaponizing the justice system and threatening

political opponents is a dangerous authoritarian tactic. The only person not being investigated for the shooting of Renee Good

is the federal agent who shot her.

Mayor Jacob Fry's office released this statement, quote,

this is an obvious attempt to intimidate me

for standing up for Minneapolis,

our local law enforcement, and our residents

against the chaos and the danger

this administration has brought to

our streets. I will not be intimidated. My focus will remain where it has always been, keeping our

city safe. America depends on leaders that use integrity and the rule of law as the guideposts for governance.

Neither our city nor our country will succumb to this fear.

We stand rock solid."
