Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz has authorized the state’s National Guard to help support local law enforcement as tensions have risen in Minneapolis following the fatal shooting of Renee Good.
The National Guard will help protect critical infrastructure and maintain public safety, a news release from Walzs’ office said.
“Yesterday, I directed the National Guard to be ready should they be needed,” Walz said in a statement. “They remain ready in the event they are needed to help keep the peace, ensure public safety, and allow for peaceful demonstrations.”
He also thanked Minnesotans as they have “met this moment,” adding “we have every reason to believe that peace will hold.”

No way will they resist Federal officers.
Yeah not gonna work out in Swishy Tims favor.
Trump is Commander-in-Chief; doesn’t he have the power to “federalize” them? Since the Governor called them to duty, the stage is already set.
I bet the NG soldiers are receiving a special briefing to really clarify the difference between a lawful and an unlawful order.
They will not be a threat to federal officers.
“allow for peaceful demonstrations.”
This is code for allow rioters to burn down the city.
Tampon’s higher than a kite on this killing.
It couldn’t have happened at a better time.
Now he’s trying to act like a leader defending his country from Trump.
You watch.
If he doesn’t end up in prison for corruption and thievery, he’s whacked and will run for president.
He’s deluded and has high hopes.
He thinks Newscum has more baggage than he does.
The Democrats have no choice but to start CWII now, Nick Shirley finally exposed how they use illegals and immigrants to defraud the public.
At what point does this become insurrection?
Waltz: yes General, i’m calling you all out. your orders are to deploy around my mansion and protect me at all costs. over.
Trump should do that. If Walz wants to play a game of chicken, let’s see how far he will go.
So the NG will help the local LEOs in keeping their lawless citizens from interfering with Federal agents doing their job?
I crack myself up!
The pendulum swings...
We have passed that point already.
At what point will President Trump invoke the Insurrection Act and use military force to suppress the insurrection?
We have not yet reached that point. It does not appear to me that the necessary logistical preparations have been completed, nor is there clear support in the nominally Republican-controlled Congress to proceed with such an escalation. That could change and those are key indicators to keep watching.
Democrats absolutely require the replacement population of illegal immigrants to maintain Democrats in power. The operations of ICE present an existential problem for them.
The Democrats will continue with their incitement of insurrection until either "TACO", or President Trump declares the Act in effect. If he does that, it may also require arrests of several State governors and other public officials.
Interesting times.
“The Minnemogadishu Blue Falcon needs the Renee Good cure.”
~~~~~
So you’re advocating killing someone now?
No, just a cure for what ails him.
If girly man Tampon Tim told the National Guard to.oppose ICE agents, wouldn’t that be an unlawful order?
