Lawless DOJ idiots are harassing Walz and Frey for being human and showing care toward the fiducial duties they, as officials, owe the people:
A DOJ spokesperson declined comment.
Walz’s office said he hadn’t received any notice of investigation.
Walz replied in a statement to the news: “Two days ago it was Elissa Slotkin. Last week it was Jerome Powell. Before that, Mark Kelly,” he said, referring to the U.S. senators who made a video telling U.S. servicemembers that they can and must refuse illegal orders, as well as the chairman of the Federal Reserve, who has refused to lower interest rates as quickly as Trump desires. “Weaponizing the justice system and threatening political opponents is a dangerous, authoritarian tactic,” Walz said.
Frey called the investigation “an obvious attempt to intimidate me for standing up for Minneapolis, our local law enforcement and our residents against the chaos and danger this administration has brought to our streets.”
He added: “I will not be intimidated.”
The Post reported that “the subpoenas suggest that the Justice Department is examining whether Walz’s and Frey’s public statements disparaging the surge of officers and federal actions have amounted to criminal interference in law enforcement work.”
Walz, who announced earlier this month he won’t seek a third term, also used his statement to criticize the federal government for not properly investigating the killing of Renee Good by federal immigration officer Jonathan Ross. “The only person not being investigated for the shooting of Renee Good is the federal agent who shot her,” he said.
[...] Earlier this week, Trump said he would cut all federal funding to Minnesota and other states that have sanctuary cities beginning Feb. 1, but it’s unclear what that means and few details have been released.
In other news, the federal judge in the Tincher case, using differing language, issued and injunction effectively saying, top down, tell your ICE gorillas they can beat on their chest when they want to, but cannot beat on people that way; and stop releasing poisons on the public.
In a separate matter, Wikipedia, notes Roy Cohn was disbarred for looting an estate when he owed the public a clear fiducial duty to behave decently; Roy Cohn being a mentor of Donald Trump.

The totality of the video weaves many facts and thoughts - some already posted about by Crabgrass - into a convincing whole. The recommendation, watch it twice, with the overall impression in mind after the first viewing being something to weigh in mind for several moments before the second attentive viewing. It's as tight a showing as you may get of the mayhem Trump is inflicting on a city of Democratic Party people, because he is paranoid about non-sycophants. My way or the highway would be bad enough, but it's My way or brutality, costing much but Trump does not care of the expense, it's the suffering he can inflict, the power to hurt people that matters to him. He can say anything he wants, but words are cheap and actions are preserved in bystander video he cannot talk away. Facts are there. He's evil.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WW-Q7KbMjXw - Trump probably grooves on his forces acting as has been seen in video time and again. It is real and a threat to America.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AROJENmi5x0 makes a case for questions of Noem and JD. JD is the one who should know better, yet his strident and beligerant tone when I was watching that one above thing had my brother-in-law saying, "Who is that asshole," just from hearing parts of things in the background. Noem is like a lower life form than an insect, but JD is a millionaire Yale Law School graduate and should behave better. That's just how it is. He's not the excuse of ignorance Noem has.
