With Noem and JD already telling and trying to sell the official version proven untrue by video evidence, at least proven unlikely, Minnesota is getting squeezed by the FBI on a "trust us" when real trust either is, or should be, lacking.
Would you buy a used car from Kash Patel? Would you trust him? Why?

JD is now fully damaged goods after Trump told him he'd dodged the Venezuela dog and pony show, but would have to pitch the Trumpian story of the murder.
JD did.
This dangerous rogue private little terrorist band of bullies is fully earning fear and loathing. Am I next? Are you?

“The officer, fearing for his life and other officers around him and
the safety of the public, fired defensive shots. He used his training to
save his own life and that of his colleagues,” Homeland Security
Secretary Kristi Noem said in a news conference in Minneapolis.
A jury might very well disagree after seeing footage of the incident,
like Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey who called ICE’s claim of
self-defense “bullsh*t.”
But the Trump administration seems intent on blocking local
prosecutors from even bringing charges against the ICE officer, who the Star Tribune identified as Jonathan Ross.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office took the unusual step soon after the shooting of ousting the state Bureau of Criminal Apprehension from the investigation into the killing.
The BCA typically investigates police shootings in the state, and was
on the scene in south Minneapolis on Wednesday collecting evidence as
part of a joint investigation with the FBI.
Then the U.S. Attorney’s Office “reversed course” and decided the
investigation would be led solely by the FBI, said Drew Evans, BCA
superintendent, in a statement.
“Without complete access to the evidence, witnesses and information
collected, we cannot meet the investigative standards that Minnesota law
and the public demands,” Evans said. “As a result, the BCA has
reluctantly withdrawn from the investigation.”
Gov. Tim Walz during a Thursday press conference expressed doubt
about the results of any investigation conducted by the federal
government because Minnesota officials have been purposefully excluded.
“Now that Minnesota has been taken out of the investigation, it feels
very, very difficult that we will get a fair outcome,” Walz said.
“People in positions of power have already passed judgment … and told
you things that are verifiably false.”
If federal investigators don’t share their findings with local
prosecutors, they’ll struggle to put together a case to bring charges,
said former Acting U.S. Attorney for Minnesota Anders Folk, who brought
federal charges against former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin
for killing George Floyd in 2020.
“I don’t know how any prosecutor could make a charging decision
without facts,” Folk said. “The local authorities are going to have to
figure out a way to do their own investigation if they want to be able
to evaluate whether a criminal charge can be brought.”
Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty, who has jurisdiction in
Minneapolis, said in a statement on Thursday that her office is
searching for a way for a state level investigation to continue.
“If the FBI is the sole investigative agency, the state will not
receive the investigative findings, and our community may never learn
about its contents,” Moriarty said in a statement.
The FBI and the U.S. Attorney’s Office did not respond to requests for comment.
Walz spells it out. Untrustworthy without an unbiased investigation.
That is especially so since the Trumpitista bunch are already bleating what they want Kash Patel's agents to say they see regardless of actual facts.
Don't ignore the Governor and the Mayor's castigating the Bullshit, and Frey's message, "Get the fuck out on Minneapolis."
The Gestapo is not wanted here in the DFL State of Minnesota. Send them to a red state sometime if ever. There is absolutely no credibility to this tiny anti-civilian masked anonymous street mob. Get them out, yesterday!
=====================================
Would you buy a used car from: Trump, JD, Rubio, Homan, Miller or Noem?
They test the limits of Constitutional constraints. A clear and present danger.
Frey earns praise for calling bullshit when he sees bullshit. You can disagree with other things, but he's both corageous and thoroughly pissed.

LAST --- Things have changed to where you don't want to throw a ham sandwich at one of the fascists, as you may likely get shot dead. Walz has warned, don't give them what they are trying dearly to provoke - any cause to shoot another Minnesotan.
Don't get violent with them, or you're next. It is truly wise of Walz to be saying that.
It's true. Don't give them what they are trying to provoke. Save your own life that way.
Show physical restraint - for the good of your family. They murder.
