'Political stunt' prosecution of ICE agent for 'road rage' provokes heated DHS response
The Department of Homeland Security accuses Minnesota officials of staging a 'political stunt' by prosecuting an ICE agent, Gregory Morgan Jr., for allegedly pointing a gun at motorists during a traffic confrontation. Federal authorities argue Morgan is protected under the Supremacy Clause, while Minnesota prosecutors claim his alleged actions fell outside legitimate federal duties. The dispute centers on jurisdiction between state and federal courts.
