Court halts Trump administration's effort to subpoena Minnesota Governor in immigration enforcement probe

The Associated Press reports that a federal district court has blocked an attempt by the Trump administration to subpoena Minnesota Governor "Tim Walz and other state officials, accusing the Justice Department of using its investigatory powers to retaliate against state officials for not cooperating with federal efforts to crack down on illegal immigration." Here is the ruling.

U.S. District Judge Patrick Schiltz found the “dominant purpose” of the subpoenas was to “coerce Minnesota officials into assisting the federal government with enforcing civil immigration law and to harass and retaliate against them for failing to do so.”
