Could Tim Walz Face Federal Charges? Why a Trump Call Changes Nothing
What happens when a former TV news anchor joins the other side and starts a campaign to tell the truth? The left freaks out does everything it can to shut him up. They swatted him. They cancelled him on social media. They did everything they could to silence him. It didn’t work.

Did Minnesota Governor Tim Walz think a friendly phone call with Donald Trump would make his legal problems disappear?
Not so fast.
Despite the media spin about “unity,” serious legal questions remain about Minnesota’s handling of ICE operations, cooperation with federal authorities, and whether state officials could face real criminal liability.
Joe Pags is joined by constitutional attorney Josh Hammer to break down what the law actually says — not the politics.
We cover:
• Can a governor face federal charges?
• Did Minnesota obstruct ICE enforcement?
• What the Insurrection Act really allows
• Federal vs state power explained
• And whether Walz is truly “safe”
A handshake doesn’t erase potential liability — and this story may be far from over.
