Far-Left Minnesota District Attorney Announces FELONY Assault Charges Against ICE Agent in Minneapolis

One of the most radical district attorneys in the entire country has escalated her war against the Trump Administration and ICE in dramatic fashion.

As KTTC reported, Hennepin County District Attorney Mary Moriarty announced that her office had filed two counts of assault charges against an ICE agent during a Thursday press conference in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

“Today, our office has charged Gregory Donnell Morgan, an ICE agent, with two counts of second degree assault,” Moriarty said. “There is now a warrant for Mr. Morgan’s arrest which allows law enforcement to arrest him anywhere in the country.”

Moriarty, who is backed by leftist billionaire George Soros, went on to say that the case is from a February 5th incident on Highway 62. Morgan was allegedly driving an unmarked, rented SUV illegally on the shoulder of the eastbound lanes near the Portland Avenue exit.

Moriarty said Morgan was appearing to bypass slower traffic and going after the victims in their car.

New GOP Outrage As Minnesota Dems Unite to Shield Walz From Impeachment

There’s one thing you have to admit about Democrats: They stick together. They have each other’s backs, regardless of what accusations may be flying about, at least until things get so egregiously bad with a particular donkey (Eric Swalwell) that they just have to admit that the dead woodchuck under the porch is starting to stink.

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz doesn’t appear to have reached that odoriferous point yet. Minnesota’s Democratic–Farmer–Labor Party (DFL), that being what they call Democrats in Minnesota, has now united to block any impeachment proceedings by Republicans against Governor Walz and his equally dead-woodchuck-smelling Attorney General, Keith Ellison.

Conservatives, not just in Minnesota but everywhere, are not happy with the move. 

Conservatives on social media erupted with outrage Thursday after Democratic lawmakers in Minnesota united to block a Republican effort to investigate further and impeach Gov. Tim Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison.

A resolution taken up by the Minnesota House Rules and Legislative Administration Committee to launch an impeachment investigation and allow the committee to hold hearings, issue subpoenas and further investigate the massive fraud scandal was blocked after all eight Democrats on the committee voted against it, Fox 9 Minneapolis reported.

The lawmakers deadlocked 8-8 on a straight party-line vote.

Because of course they did. Democrats are lockstep in support of their guy, and honestly, that’s something Republicans could stand to be just a little better at.

Here’s a real howler:

“This is a fundamentally unserious proposal by a fundamentally unserious party who isn’t interested in governing,” Minnesota Democratic–Farmer–Labor Party (DFL) Rep. Michael Howard said about the move. 

Oh, the irony! Half of the state of Minnesota is raking in billions in blatant fraud, and he’s saying that the minority Republicans are screwing up?

Harmeet Dhillon Drops the Hammer on Minnesota’s Racist Affirmative Action Scam

Civil rights attorney Harmeet Dhillon detailed a legal challenge targeting Minnesota’s longstanding affirmative action policies, arguing that the state’s framework violates federal law by discriminating against majority groups in employment.

Dhillon said similar policies have appeared in multiple cities across the country, pointing to recent examples where public backlash led to reversals.

“Well, look, Chicago has this many big cities have it,” Dhillon said. “When I tweeted about Asheville trying to do this, they withdrew their policy.”

She described the issue as widespread and ongoing.

“Asheville, North Carolina, it’s like Whack a Mole out there,” Dhillon said.

According to Dhillon, Minnesota’s policies date back decades and are rooted in earlier legal interpretations that she said have since been challenged by more recent court rulings.

“But the state of Minnesota has long had this affirmative action regime dating back to the 1960s and 1970s a couple of bad Supreme Court precedents that wrongly interpreted Title Seven,” she said.

Dhillon pointed to recent Supreme Court decisions that she said clarify the legal standard regarding discrimination.

Leftists Mobs Violently Attacked a TPUSA Journalist. Will They Face Justice?

Savannah Hernandez, a TPUSA contributor and independent journalist, was covering a Left-wing protest in Minneapolis when she was assaulted by a mob that identified as Antifa.

One of the men who attacked Hernandez was identified by Alpha News and Crime Watch Minneapolis as Chris Ostroushko. He was seen on video shoving Hernandez to the ground.

Here’s more:

“Apparently Chris Ostroushko is also a Minneapolis FRAUDSTER and was convicted of defrauding the state unemployment program back in the early 2000s,” Hernandez wrote in an X post reacting to CrimeWatchMpls’ post of a screenshot of the complaint.

Hernandez posted a video of the incident to X on Sunday, which has received nearly 4 million views and 114,000 likes as of Monday afternoon. The clip shows the journalist, holding a camera and arguing with the demonstrators, before Ostroushko can be seen shoving her and shouting an expletive.

A man then shouts at Ostroushko and the crowd of protesters he is with to “back the f*** up,” adding, “it’s over.” However, Ostroushko continues to walk forward, shouting and pointing, prompting multiple people to restrain him.

“I’m waking up with a headache and stiff neck this morning due to how violently anti-ICE activist, Chris Ostroushko, shoved me down yesterday,” Hernandez wrote in the viral post. “A second angle shows that he had to be held back by 5 men as he continued to charge at me.”

Political pressure from Somali community hampered Minnesota fraud probes, whistleblower says

A key whistle-blower, and one of the first to draw attention to what he believed was widespread fraud in the Minnesota welfare system, says that state officials hampered probes into the allegations over concerns about pressure from the state’s Somali immigrant community. 

That community has been at the center of recent welfare fraud accusations, including the Feeding Our Future fraud case, in which prosecutors say more than 70 defendants — most of them part of Minneapolis’ Somali community — were charged in connection to a $250 million pandemic-era fraud on a state-funded meals program for children. 

Last year, new charges in the Feeding Our Future case sparked renewed interest in the state’s federally-funded daycare program. Independent journalists flocked to Minneapolis and recorded videos of empty daycare centers that had received millions in state grants. 

“It was obvious that they were committing fraud”: DHS investigator

But, concerns about Minneapolis daycare centers go back at least a decade, according to the whistle-blower, Scott Dexter, who worked as an investigator at the Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS) from 2013 to 2019. He told Just the News that his team uncovered evidence of fraud in the state’s taxpayer-funded daycare system almost immediately after he started his work. 

“The very first [daycare] that we investigated […] had received about $3.75 million in one year, and so it was obvious that they were committing fraud,” Dexter told the Just the News, No Noise TV show on Tuesday.  

“And the number of these childcare centers would be owned by the same owners, or there’d be, you know, intertwined people involved in it. So one daycare center was involved with another daycare center, so it was obvious that it was a coordinated fraud scheme,” said Dexter. 

In his testimony before the House Judiciary Committee earlier this year, Dexter said that he was hired after a 28-year law enforcement career to be part of a new investigative unit in the Office of the Inspector General at the Minnesota DHS tasked with identifying fraud in the state’s Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP). 

Dexter testified that what his team uncovered was “deeply concerning” regarding daycare centers operating out of commercial spaces “with windows covered, no visible play areas, and very few children ever present.” After reviewing records and surveilling locations, they found “documented patterns of overbilling, nonexistent attendance, and in some cases, children being signed in for hours they were never actually at the center.”

Minnesota Freedom Caucus Announces Impeachment Hearings for Tim Walz and Keith Ellison Will Take Place Next Week

The Minnesota Freedom Caucus announced that impeachment hearings for Governor Tim Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison will take place next week.

Dustin Grage from Townhall reported:

The hearing is scheduled for Wednesday April 15th, at 10:15 AM in the State Capitol.

Articles of impeachment were filed against Minnesota Governor Tim Walz for “corrupt” conduct in office back in January 12, 2026.

The resolution accuses Walz of violating his constitutional oath by engaging in corrupt conduct and failing to faithfully execute state laws.

Heritage reported that Federal prosecutors estimate that fraud in Minnesota-administered social services programs (mostly Medicaid and related aid) since 2018 could total $9 billion or more—roughly half or more of the $18 billion billed across 14 “high-risk” programs.

FRAUD FUGITIVE ON THE RUN: $11M Medicaid Scam Suspect Flees U.S. Before Trial After Posting Bond — Critics BLAST Tim Walz’s “Soft-on-Crime” System for Letting Him Keep Passport

In another jaw-dropping example of Minnesota’s collapsing justice system under far-left Governor Tim Walz, a major fraud kingpin in the state’s largest-ever Medicaid scam has skipped the country, just days before his high-profile trial was set to begin.

Abdirashid Said, the top defendant in a sprawling $11 million personal care assistant (PCA) fraud scheme, is now a fugitive after skipping a scheduled pretrial hearing in Hennepin County.

The trial, expected to last weeks and expose a massive web of fraud targeting taxpayer-funded Medicaid programs, has now been abruptly canceled.

According to reporting from KARE 11’s Lou Raguse, Said had been facing serious charges including racketeering, aiding and abetting theft by swindle, and perjury.

Prosecutors alleged he played a central role in a coordinated scheme involving PCA companies that billed Medicaid for services that were never performed, effectively siphoning millions from taxpayers.

Said had already been convicted of fraud in a previous scheme and was ordered by a judge NOT to work for any company receiving Medicaid funds, KARE 11 reported.

Yet he allegedly continued the grift, complete with perjury on the witness stand, where he claimed massive checks were just “loans and gifts” to pay off prior restitution.

Minnesota Children’s Hospital Snubs Trump’s Executive Order, Will Resume Sex Change Procedures on Minors

A Minnesota children’s hospital plans to resume sex change procedures for minors, flying in the face of President Trump’s executive order banning the practice. 

Last January, Trump signed the “Protecting Children from Chemical and Surgical Mutilation” Executive Order, which restricts sex-change procedures for minors by cutting federal funding to institutions that practice the satanic procedures.

“It is the policy of the United States that it will not fund, sponsor, promote, assist, or support the so-called ‘transition’ of a child from one sex to another, and it will rigorously enforce all laws that prohibit or limit these destructive and life-altering procedures,” Trump wrote in the order.

It can be recalled that former MAGA firebrand Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) led an effort to codify the President’s executive order last year, when the House passed her Protect Children’s Innocence Act.

The bill would make it a crime for sex-change surgery and hormonal treatments to be provided to minors and leave parents who allowed their child to be mutilated subject to prosecution.

However, the RINO-controlled Senate, led by Leader John Thune (R-SD), did not even vote on the bill.

Minnesota Judge Hands Somali Fraudster Just 6 Months After $500K Theft in Child Food Scam

A fraudster in the massive “Feeding Our Future” scandal has received just six months in jail after stealing nearly half a million dollars in taxpayer money meant for children.

Zamzam Jama was sentenced to six months behind bars and ordered to repay $491,000 for her role in the scheme.

The sentence was handed down by U.S. District Judge Nancy Brasel, who was somehow appointed by President Trump back in 2018, one day after a co-conspirator received only a one-year term.

Brasel has previously ruled in favor of mail-in voting and counting ballots days or even weeks after an election has concluded. Mail-in ballots are the most common method that Democrats use to cheat.

The case involves one of the largest fraud operations in recent U.S. history.

Judge Tosses DOJ Lawsuit Challenging Minnesota’s In-State Tuition for Illegal Immigrants

A district court judge tossed out the Trump administration’s lawsuit on March 27 against Minnesota laws that allow illegal immigrants to pay in-state tuition rates, or in some cases have tuition waived, for college and university classes, ruling that the state law doesn’t violate federal law.

Judge Katherine Menendez of the U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota granted the state’s motion to dismiss the Department of Justice’s lawsuit, filed on June 25, 2025, finding that in-state tuition rules didn’t discriminate against citizens.

“As Defendants point out, there are multiple ways a student could qualify for Resident Tuition without residing in Minnesota, such as attending a Minnesota high school while living in a neighboring state, or by attending a Minnesota boarding school,” Menendez wrote in the decision.

The federal government sued Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and other state officials over the state’s laws that allow foreign nationals to receive lower or free college tuition.

Minnesota law states that any student, other than a non-immigrant alien, can qualify for a resident tuition rate at state universities and colleges if they attend high school in the state for at least three years and graduate from a state high school or get a high school equivalent degree.

The law also states that illegal immigrants must give the state proof that they have complied with federal selective service registration requirements and have filed to obtain lawful immigration status in order to qualify for in-state tuition.
