On Friday, the Justice Department announced that it had subpoenaed Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey as part of an investigation of both Democrats for interfering with federal immigration enforcement efforts. On Sunday, Don Lemon and a bunch of anti-ICE rabble-rousers invaded a church during a worship service because they allegedly thought there was a connection between the church and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. On Monday, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announced that the Trump administration has apprehended quite a few aliens in Minnesota.

In other words, the Land of 10,000 Somali Daycares remains at the center of the immigration universe.

“PEACE AND PUBLIC SAFETY IN MINNEAPOLIS!” Noem posted on X. “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.”

She added, “There is MASSIVE Fraud in Minneapolis, at least $19 billion and that’s just the tip of [the] iceberg. Our Homeland Security Investigators are on the ground in Minneapolis conducting wide scale investigations to get justice for the American people who have been robbed blind. MAKE AMERICA SAFE AGAIN.”

Obviously, her post goes against the grain of the Leftmedia’s reporting and public mood. If you believe the polls, Americans have quickly soured on the Trump administration’s enforcement, especially after Renee Good’s death.

Minnesota, of course, was the only state Ronald Reagan didn’t win in 1984, so it’s not like its left-wing politics are something new.

Let’s focus for a moment on Don Lemon, who was fired from CNN in 2023. He claims he “didn’t even know” about the mob’s plans to disrupt and effectively end the worship service at Cities Church, but he embedded with them and then entered the building with them to film their actions. They mistook the pastor, David Easterwood, for a man of the same name who is the acting director of the St. Paul ICE field office.

“Listen,” Lemon insisted, “there’s a Constitution and a First Amendment to freedom of speech and freedom to assemble and protest.” His actions, he claims, were “an act of journalism.”

Lemon has been put “on notice” by the Justice Department’s Harmeet Dhillon, who said, “The First Amendment [does not] protect your pseudo journalism of disrupting a prayer service.”

Lemon also made clear what he thinks of any Christians who object to his or the mob’s behavior. “I think people who are in religious groups like that — it’s not the type of Christianity that I practice — but I think that they’re entitled, and that entitlement comes from … white supremacy,” he told leftist podcaster Jennifer Welch. “They think this country was built for them, that it’s a Christian country.”

That’s not journalism; that’s hateful bigotry and left-wing activism. That describes much of today’s Leftmedia.

But wait — here’s the funny part.

Lemon could face charges under the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act, which is generally a law meant to govern protests at abortion clinics. But another possibility Dhillon raised is the Ku Klux Klan Act. “The Biden DOJ used the Klan Act conspiracy charges tacked onto the FACE Act in the case of protests outside abortion clinics to bring much longer sentences,” she explained. “So there are a number of tools available to us.”

That could make Lemon even more sour.

Federal law enforcement officials are in this situation because Minnesota officials refuse to enforce the law.

State Attorney General Keith Ellison called the church invasion a “protest” that “is fundamental to American society.” I’m guessing that, as a Muslim, he wouldn’t say the same thing about an invasion of a mosque.

It’s bad enough that Ellison praised the illegal “protest,” but The Daily Wire reports, “A top staffer for Hennepin County’s Soros-backed prosecutor was among the protesters.” That would be Jamael Lundy, who “works as intergovernmental affairs coordinator for Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty, is married to St. Paul City Council member Anika Bowie, and is running for a seat in the state legislature as a Democrat.”

So, the state’s chief law enforcement officer and a prosecutor are part of the problem, but as I mentioned above, the resistance includes Mayor Frey and Governor Walz. After Good was shot and killed by an ICE agent because she disobeyed direct orders and accelerated her car while he stood in front of it — in other words, a justified shooting, gaslighting notwithstanding — Frey demanded that ICE “get the f**k out” of Minneapolis. Walz accused ICE of “organized brutality against the people of Minnesota.”

Both men have made numerous other inflammatory comments that debase the Rule of Law and arguably incite protesters to more radical and sometimes violent actions. Democrats know what they’re doing, which is why they throw in a “peaceful” admonition here and there. Frey even laughably asserted that the angry mob resistance “is all about love.”

Whatever, dude.

Walz and Frey have absolutely impeded federal law enforcement operations. Hence the DOJ subpoenas.

In fact, as our Michael Smith argues today, Democrat non-enforcement — and impeding enforcement — is why we have a veritable immigration street war.
