Minnesota authorities admitted they let a gunman who shot a Democratic lawmaker and her husband dead slip away despite engaging him in a firefight immediately after the murders.
State Representative Melissa Hortman was shot along with fellow Democrat John Hoffman, a state senator, in a chilling assassination spree in the early hours of Saturday morning.
Local police, sheriff's deputies, and the FBI have since launched an extensive manhunt, as authorities say multiple gunmen may be at large...
The first shooting occurred just after 2am at Hoffman's home in Champlin, about 20 miles from Minneapolis. Hoffman and his wife were shot multiple times and remain in critical condition.
The second attack took place at around 4am at Hortman's Brooklyn Park residence, about eight miles south.
Brooklyn Park Police Chief Mark Bruley said the gunman’s vehicle, which bore a close resemblance to a police squad car, contained a 'manifesto' and a target list with names of individuals, including the two lawmakers who were shot.
'I will tell you, when we did a search of the vehicle, there was a manifesto that identified many lawmakers and other officials,' Brooklyn Park Police Department Chief Mark Bruley said...
The list found inside the suspect's car contained nearly 70 names, a law enforcement official told CNN.
The list included abortion providers, pro-abortion rights advocates and lawmakers from Minnesota and other states.
A Father's Day card was also reportedly discovered inside the vehicle, addressed to the suspect in a bag full of ammunition.
All Democratic members of Minnesota's Congressional delegation were reportedly on the suspect's alleged hit list, a law enforcement source told CNN.
US Capitol Police have contacted each member of the state's delegation, conducting security checks amid the ongoing manhunt.

“All Democratic members of Minnesota’s Congressional delegation were on alleged ‘manifesto’”
Looks like one of the Dems programmed attack dogs went rogue.
So nothing here about Walz appointing him do we know his real motivation yet.
This "hit list" seems like a plant. He wanted the police to find it.
Why would Antifa (which this guy sounds like) want to go after all Democrats, pro-abortion advocates, and abortion providers?
Seems like he killed the moderate Democrats, then left a fake hit list for the media to find, a list that implied he was right-wing.
Just how did the local LEOs let the Democrat “slip away”?
Professional courtesy?
What's the "anti-Trump" part?
What is the anti trump discovery ?
“ US Capitol Police have contacted each member of the state’s delegation, conducting security checks amid the ongoing manhunt.”
US Capitol Police.
Huge red flag.
“All Democratic members of Minnesota’s Congressional delegation were on alleged ‘manifesto’”
A low IQ false flag. Trying to implicate MAGA through false accusations.
The Ninth Commandment explicitly prohibits making false statements against our neighbor.
Now I know why they said he had made no statement....Wow....now let’s find out that he is also connected to Kamala...wanna bet??
Makes sense to me if the goal was to create chaos. That’s really what antifa is about, anarchy.
Maybe the DM wrote the headline first, for clickbait, then forgot to justify it?
I’m wondering the same.
I’ve read the article several times but have not found the “chilling ‘anti-Trump’ discovery”.
Admittedly, I’m tired. Has anyone else found it?
Let? Curious choice of words.
It’s the No Kings signs in his car.
The woman he killed voted against funding healthcare for illegals.
This was possibly a terror attack to keep Democrats in line with the far left.
Well, that is odd. Way too many coinkydinks. I’m beginning to suspect shenanigans!
They know who the guy is. Have they gotten his phone records yet. It’d be interesting to see who is on his contacts list 🤔
