MAGA prosecutor hit with scathing letter from AG over offer to investigate Dem lawmaker [View all]

Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes is bringing the hammer down on a pro-Trump county prosecutor's move to investigate a state senator for disclosing the location of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents.

The state lawmaker in question, Analise Ortiz, posted information on the locations of ICE agents during a raid in her neighborhood. There is no law against doing this, but Trump supporters have sought to threaten or intimidate people who share that information, claiming that it puts agents' safety at risk.

The Trump administration has run with this, publicly threatening CNN for even airing a segment about a phone app that lets people track ICE raids.
