Calls for President Trump to pardon ex-Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin are drawing reaction from Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison. Chauvin’s serving time on state and federal charges related to the murder of George Floyd.

Despite calls from conservative media personalities to do so, President Donald Trump said Friday he is not considering a pardon for convicted killer and ex-cop Derek Chauvin.

Trump adviser Elon Musk recently posted on X that a federal pardon for Derek Chauvin was “something to think about.”

Minnesota's Attorney General Keith Ellison has pushed back on calls for President Donald Trump to pardon Derek Chauvin, the white police officer convicted of murdering George Floyd in 2020, saying such calls show a "blatant disrespect" for the law and Floyd's family.

The suits cover a range of topics; the federal funding freeze, gender-affirming care, funding for the National Institute of Health, Elon Musk’s DOGE, and most recently, termination of federal employees.

Former Minneapolis Police Officer Derek Chauvin is in prison for both federal and state crimes related to George Floyd's murder in 2020.

Whether it's a murder conviction or the criminal breach of voting machines, Trump’s supporters and allies are calling for action.

Ellison, who has opposed President Donald Trump’s initiatives regarding deportations and transgender athletes, was set to speak at an optional assembly for high school students.

Newly sworn in Attorney General Pam Bondi has put Minnesota “on notice” over its plan to buck President Donald Trump’s executive order that bans transgender individuals from participating in girls and women’s sports.

Students are planning to protest at Red Wing High School after the district canceled a Black History Month event featuring Attorney General Keith Ellison scheduled for Thursday, citing "concerns over significant disruptions."
