据知情人士透露,由于明尼苏达州近期的移民执法行动,美国司法部正准备应对该州联邦检察官办公室新一轮的辞职潮。
消息人士称,在最近的一次会议上,美国检察官丹尼尔·罗森试图说服其办公室支持特朗普政府在明尼苏达州的行动时,检察官们曾威胁要辞职。到目前为止,他的劝说并没有缓解办公室内部对政府可能采取非法行动的担忧。
一位消息人士表示,如果辞职成为现实,可能会严重削弱美国检察官办公室的力量,因为该办公室正在起诉移民和抗议者,而在司法部对一名联邦官员枪杀蕾妮·古德的事件回应引发一轮辞职后,人员本就紧张。
华盛顿司法部官员正密切关注此次会议及潜在的辞职情况,该部门已采取措施从其他中西部办公室抽调检察官前往明尼苏达州提供帮助。司法部拒绝对此置评。
司法部长帕姆·邦迪本周三再次前往明尼苏达州,这是她几周内的第二次访问。据知情人士透露,她在明尼苏达州的至少部分会议是为了提振美国检察官办公室的士气。
由于人员不足,其他州的司法部检察官正在明尼苏达州协助工作,司法部可能会请求更多人员支援。本月早些时候的辞职潮中,包括罗森手下的一些办公室领导层成员。五角大楼也正派遣数十名军事律师前往明尼阿波利斯协助联邦起诉工作。
本周三,明尼苏达州联邦地区法院首席法官在一份措辞严厉的命令中抱怨称,他认为国土安全部官员本月在与在押移民相关的案件中违反法院命令的行为多达数十起。
法院和美国检察官办公室的检察官正在处理与抗议活动以及移民被拘留者申请救济相关的搜查令和逮捕令,这导致检察官与法官之间的紧张关系加剧。
Justice Department bracing for more resignations in Minnesota
PUBLISHED Jan 28, 2026, 10:25 PM ET | By Katelyn Polantz, Paula Reid, Hannah Rabinowitz
The Justice Department is bracing for a new wave of resignations in the Minnesota federal prosecutors’ office over recent immigration enforcement efforts in the state, sources familiar with the matter said.
Prosecutors threatened to resign during a recent meeting in which US Attorney Daniel Rosen had tried to convince his office to get on board with the Trump administration’s efforts in Minnesota, the sources said. His plea so far hasn’t assuaged concerns within the office that the administration is taking potentially unlawful steps.
One of the sources said that if the resignations came to fruition, they could decimate the US Attorney’s office as they are pursuing cases against immigrants and protesters, and pile onto an already thin staff after an earlier wave of resignations over how the Justice Department responded to a federal officer’s shooting of Renee Good.
The meeting and potential resignations are being watched closely by Justice Department officials in Washington, and the department has been taking steps to pull prosecutors from other Midwestern offices into Minnesota to help. The Justice Department declined to comment for this story.
Attorney General Pam Bondi was in Minnesota on Wednesday, her second trip in as many weeks. At least some of her meetings there were to boost morale at the US Attorney’s office, according to a person familiar with the visits.
Justice Department prosecutors from other states are in Minnesota to assist the office while it is understaffed, and the department could request more. Previous resignations this month included some leaders in the office beneath Rosen. The Pentagon is also sending dozens of military lawyers to Minneapolis to assist in federal prosecutions.
Also on Wednesday, the chief judge of the federal district court in Minnesota complained in a sharply worded order that he believes Homeland Security officials were violating court orders by the dozens this month in cases related to immigrants in custody.
The court and the US attorney’s office prosecutors are fielding search and arrest warrants related to protests as well as immigrant detainees’ requests for relief, leading to increased tensions between prosecutors and judges.
