BREAKING UPDATE: Subpoenas issued by grand jury for Tim Walz and Jacob Frey in federal obstruction investigation

UPDATE: Late Friday night, new reporting revealed that subpoeanas have been issued for both Tim Walz and Jacob Frey. 

CNN reports: "A person familiar with the matter told CNN that a grand jury has issued subpoenas for both men as part of the investigation. But neither office had received any notice as of Friday evening, according to sources familiar with the matter. It was not immediately clear when Frey and Walz would receive the subpoenas."

Original story follows:

The DOJ has begun an investigation into Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey over an alleged conspiracy to obstruct and impede federal authorities carrying out immigration enforcement. Both men have made repeated remarks over the past week and a half encouraging Minnesotans to take to the streets in protest of federal law officers, to track them and film them. They have also demanded outright that the officers leave the city and state. Frey said in a press conference following the death of Renee Good, "get the f*ck out of Minneapolis."

CBS spoke to sources familiar with the matter, who said that the leaders were under investigation, but the DOJ declined to comment.

The Trump administration ramped up immigration enforcement actions earlier this year in the wake of a massive series of fraud scandals among the immigrant Somali community. Taxpayer funds were siphoned from government grant programs under the guise of providing social services, but those services were never provided. An unknown sum of funds from American taxpayers was absconded with to fund Islamic terror groups.

The scandal was so egregious that Walz suspended his re-election campaign. The Department of Homeland Security surged officers to the sanctuary state, in which local law officers are forbidden by law from working with federal agents. Massive protests ensued when activist Renee Good was shot to death while attempting to ram her car into ICE agents. She had been blocking the road to impede agent operations.

"We're in a position right now where we have residents that are asking the very limited number of police officers that we have to fight ICE agents on the street," Frey said after a weekend of protests. "We cannot be at a place right now in America where we have two governmental entities that are literally fighting one another."

Walz and Frey have since called for protests to remain peaceful. The governor urged Minnesotans not to "fan the flames of chaos" in a message on X Thursday.

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche remarked: "Walz and Frey- I'm focused on stopping YOU from your terrorism by whatever means necessary. This is not a threat. It's a promise."
