‘Tim Walz protecting a child ra*ist?’: DHS condemns Minnesota’s pardon of convicted illegal alien
Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, Attorney General Keith Ellison, and the Minnesota Board of Pardons are facing backlash after granting clemency to Tou Lue Vang, an undocumented immigrant convicted of sexually assaulting a 10-year-old girl who had been under a final deportation order. The Department of Homeland Security condemned the decision, arguing the pardon could complicate Vang's removal from the United States and reigniting debate over Minnesota's immigration and sanctuary policies.
