<p>The FBI doled out federal criminal investigation subpoenas to the offices of Gov. Tim Walz, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, and Attorney General Keith Ellison for allegedly conspiring to interfere with Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s actions in the state.</p>
<p>Six offices were subpoenaed in total so far, Fox News&#8217; Bill Melugin <a href="https://x.com/BillMelugin_/status/2013692532375347699?s=20">reported</a>. <span style="font-weight: 400;">Sources also told <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/doj-serves-grand-jury-subpoenas-minnesota-dems-investigation-ice-obstruction-sources">the outlet </a></span><span style="font-weight: 400;">that “</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">the FBI</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> served the subpoenas, seeking records and communications.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Frey&#8217;s office confirmed to The Daily Wire that they had received the FBI subpoena. </span></p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
<p dir="ltr" lang="en">NEW: <a href="https://twitter.com/realDailyWire?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@realDailyWire</a> can independently confirm that Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey&#8217;s office received an FBI subpoena</p>
<p>— Cameron Arcand (@cameron_arcand) <a href="https://twitter.com/cameron_arcand/status/2013691730751627403?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">January 20, 2026</a></p></blockquote>
<p>Walz publicly blasted the investigation on Tuesday.</p>
<p>“But let me be absolutely clear: The State of Minnesota will not be drawn into political theater. 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,” Walz said in a <a href="https://x.com/GovTimWalz/status/2013670376220348484/photo/1">statement</a>.</p>
<p>“It is a partisan distraction. Minnesotans are more concerned with safety and peace rather than with baseless legal tactics aimed at intimidating public servants standing shoulder to shoulder with their community,” he continued.</p>
<p>Earlier on Tuesday, Ellison announced that he would seek a third term in his office, a contrast from Walz’s decision not to seek re-election in light of fraud scandals plaguing the state.</p>
<p>“As the federal government targets Minnesota, I’m staying in this race to defend our state as Attorney General,” he posted to X.</p>
<p>The Daily Wire reached out to the FBI to confirm. ICE’s Operation Metro Surge has yielded 3,000 arrests in recent weeks, including individuals in the country illegally with criminal convictions.</p>
<p>“We have arrested over 10,000 criminal illegal aliens who were killing Americans, hurting children and reigning terror in Minneapolis because Tim Walz and Jacob Frey refuse to protect their own people and instead protect criminals,” DHS Secretary Kristi Noem said in a statement on Tuesday. “In the last 6 weeks, our brave DHS law enforcement have arrested 3,000 criminal illegal aliens including vicious murderers, rapists, child pedophiles, and incredibly dangerous individuals. A huge victory for public safety.”</p>
<p>Tensions have run extraordinarily high in the state following the fatal shooting of Renee Good by an ICE officer as she allegedly attempted to hit him with her car, which led to the officer suffering from internal bleeding, according to the Department of Homeland Security. Protests not only raged on in the Minneapolis area for days after the shooting, but hit a tipping point over the weekend when an anti-ICE protest interrupted a church service, accusing one of the pastors of working for ICE.</p>
