*yawn*

More “investigations”.

There is already enough information for the local US Attorney to charge someone.

“Foreign ATM? Somali cash exodus from Minneapolis exponentially larger than other major US airports”

https://justthenews.com/government/security/foreign-atm-somali-cash-exodus-minneapolis-exponentially-larger-other-major-us

“The cash moved overseas in luggage by Somali couriers from the Minneapolis airport was 10 to 100 times larger than the total foreign exodus of money at other larger American airports the last two years, officials tell Just the News.

Homeland Security Department officials said the statistics they have gathered in recent weeks show the movement of cash out of Minnesota was substantially abnormal and should have raised red flags during the Biden administration, long before the Trump administration began investigating it as part of a major fraud scheme that stole billions from taxpayers in the state. “

Excellent.

Bureaucratic moves are critical to accomplishing the “impossible”.

Will this new person have any power to arrest people? And will we see evidence of this?

Nope.
That's an Assistant AG.
There are already 11 of them.

Grok:

Yes, any new Assistant Attorney General (AAG) in the U.S. Department of Justice will report—directly or indirectly—to Attorney General Pamela Bondi.

“We probably have our own satellite by now”.

Minnesota has earned the Federal attention it’s getting

In a significant departure from traditional DOJ structure, this official will operate out of the White House and report directly to President Trump and Vice President Vance, rather than through the Attorney General or standard DOJ chain of command.

Also from Grok. Vance announced it.
