This is a Trump administration classic. Always trying to take credit for the works of others. This recent Minnesota corruption scandal started back in Biden's DOJ. So it was already an ongoing investigation.
Even before that the local authorities were investigating. The Trump administration tries to make it out like it is some revelation they came up with.
Of course this administration needs some kind of anti-corruption win because they have never delivered their promise about reducing corruption. Instead, they have torn apart every agency that uncovers corruption.
