Tim Walz Says He Will Do Anything To Keep Minnesota Residents Safe Except Cooperate With Federal Law Enforcement

SAINT PAUL, MN — With tensions between ICE agents and leftist protesters in Minneapolis running high, Governor Tim Walz said he was willing to do anything to keep Minnesota residents safe except cooperate with federal law enforcement.

Walz, the failed vice presidential candidate who will not be seeking re-election as governor, said he would exhaust every potential solution to stop the bloodshed except for working with ICE to enforce immigration laws in Minnesota.

"I'm open to any solution but that one," Walz told reporters. "I am here to serve and protect the residents of the great state of Minnesota and look out for their best interests. That requires me to do absolutely everything in my power to keep them safe, up to — but no including — cooperating with federal law enforcement. That's a bridge too far, I'm afraid."

Clashes between protesters and ICE agents have led to multiple controversial deaths, as leftists expressed outrage that law enforcement officers were daring to enforce laws. Walz stressed the need for de-escalation, despite his unwillingness to uphold the actual law.

"Minnesota is a state that's all about love," he explained when asked if he would order state and local police departments to cooperate with ICE. "And I would do anything for love. Yes, I would do anything for love. I would do anything for love, but I won't do that. No. No, I won't do that."

At publishing time, Walz's office said that the governor had decided to perform a special, heartfelt, flamboyant ribbon dance in an effort to bring peace to the state.

He will also refuse to help the feds investigate billions of dollars of fraud or any kickbacks paid to Minnesota government officials to keep the gravy train running.

Since ICE has a lots of work to do, what if the DOJ announces illegals, rapists, killers and child mutilators etc will be ignored for 11 months if they're living in Minnesota...

ICE can get rid of criminals in states where people don't want criminals hurting their communities. You know, the kind of communities sane people live in.. After 11 months ICE can go back to the Minnesota hellhole and pick up their criminals, illegals, and scammers. I'm guessing the crazies of that state won't be objecting after 11 months of sky high crime and evil.

I thought The Bee only did satire. When did they switch to straight news?

Past time for the Feds to arrest this terrorist. He’s complicit in organizing, tolerating, and executing the fraud, and the riots.
The evidence is out there, arrest them all.

It’s not a crime if they’re not going to charge him for it.

The goal is not to arrest. The goal is MAGA.

Let’s keep our eyes on the ball.

There are a lot of things in play here.

” It’s not a crime if they’re not going to charge him for it.”

I’ll respectfully disagree with that statement.
There are hundreds of crimes committed every day that don’t get charged.
That doesn’t make them any less of a crime.

Safe? Journalists cannot step out cars without getting ice bottles on their faces.

We know what communists mean by peace and safe.
