According to his Facebook profile, Janke is a Statewide Prairie Biologist at the DNR.

On Facebook on July 17, the MN DNR posted this in response, "Violence or the threat of violence has absolutely no place in American politics. The recent assassination attempt on former President Trump was a heinous act with tragic consequences. The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources vehemently rejects the use of violence, or the insinuation of violence, in any form."

"We are aware of a recent social media post on a personal account associated with one of our employees about the assassination attempt on former President Trump. The comment is reprehensible and inconsistent with the views and values of the Minnesota DNR. We are thoroughly examining the matter and will take all appropriate steps in alignment with state law and policy. The Minnesota Data Practices Act limits our ability to comment further on this personnel matter."
