Following the targeted assassinations of Minnesota Democratic lawmakers, President Donald Trump has not reached out to Governor Tim Walz. In an interview with ABC News\u2019 Rachel Scott, Trump condemned the violence but criticized Walz as a \u201cterrible\u201d and \u201cgrossly incompetent\u201d governor. He indicated he might call Walz or others but offered no specific commitment. Despite personal attacks, Trump expressed that the violence was unacceptable and promised federal involvement in the investigation.<\/p>\n

Attorney General Pam Bondi confirmed that the Department of Justice and the FBI are actively involved in the case. She called the attack \u201ctargeted\u201d and assured the public that the perpetrators would be prosecuted to the fullest extent. FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino added that federal agents were working closely with local and state officials on the ground.<\/p>\n

Public figures like former NFL player Jack Brewer expressed outrage over the current state of Minnesota, blaming Governor Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison for turning the state into what he described as the \u201ccapital of chaos.\u201d Brewer, a former Minnesota Vikings and University of Minnesota player, lamented the loss of civility and rising violence in a state he once called home.<\/p>\n

Authorities identified 57-year-old Vance Boelter as the suspect responsible for the shootings. He allegedly killed House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband, and later State Senator John Hoffman and his wife. Boelter was captured after a two-day manhunt and is now in custody, having reportedly surrendered to officers in Sibley County.<\/p>\n

Investigators found \u201cNo Kings\u201d signs in Boelter\u2019s truck, echoing the theme of nationwide protests held that same weekend opposing the Trump administration\u2019s ICE operations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
