Elon Musk shared it to his X with the caption Prosecute @GovTimWalz, later reposting a report of the video's impressive view count."
"Rep. Tom Emmer (R-MN), who serves as the House majority whip, also reposted the video and called for an explanation, while FBI Director Kash Patel announced a surge in personnel and investigative resources to Minnesota in light of recent social media reports in the state.
