Federal Judge Quashes Trump DOJ Subpoenas Using Trump's Own Social Media Posts
What was said
"The day after Minnesota, Minneapolis, and St. Paul filed a lawsuit challenging Operation Metro Surge, Trump posted a message on social media criticizing Minnesota's failure to cooperate with ICE and promising the quote great people of Minnesota that the day of reckoning and retribution is coming. Again, Trump explicitly threatened retribution against Minnesota's political leaders for exercising their constitutional rights."
A George W. Bush-appointed federal judge in Minnesota quashed grand jury subpoenas issued by Trump's DOJ against Governor Walz and other state officials, ruling that Trump unconstitutionally attempted to commandeer state resources and retaliate against sanctuary policies. The judge cited Trump's own social media posts threatening retribution and a day of reckoning as direct evidence of abuse of the grand jury process, finding the DOJ violated the 10th Amendment by attempting to coerce states into enforcing federal immigration laws.
