It was the female politician and her husband that died. The male politician and his wife have survived so far.
They just had a press conference.
Tampon Tim already claiming the shooting was “politically motivated”...this on the heels of the DEI hire at the FBI running to the mic and saying the New Orleans attack on NYE was “not terrorism”
I guess Tim had been told about the “manifesto” found in the car.
Ok. Did Walz say we need to learn “compromise”, today? After the shootings? Because if so, that tells me it’s a lefties who shot these people.
According to Wikipedia they died of their wounds...
“On June 14, 2025, Hoffman and his spouse were shot at his house.[1] Another lawmaker, Melissa Hortman, was also shot in a related shooting in the 2025 Minnesota lawmaker shootings.[5] Hortman and her spouse died of their wounds the same day, June 14, 2025.”
I am thinking of Horst Wessel, whose murder made him a Nazi martyr. Minnesota Governor, Tampon Tim Walz, is already calling this a political assassination and I’m certain at today’s “No King” rally will be foaming at the mouth with spittle spewing anti Trump invectives.
Of course he’s praising them. He wants to se their deaths for political purposes.
I believe Hortman voted for the bill to repeal free healthcare for illegals but nothing on Hoffman voting for the bill to repeal:
(Especially in a state with... well, you know...)
First shooting 2am
Second 3:30 am
Perp exchanged gunfire with police during 3:30 shooting of the Hoffmans.
They know who perp is. Will not release that information
********
And the cops knew where he was headed next. Fox says he was a former cop in Nevada. Randy Sutton.
Well, what motive would you say justifies ambushing the two couples? I literally cannot think of one.
One had voted to strip illegals of free healthcare or something like that.
well, who’s on the list?
The vote was to repeal health insurance for illegals. Hortman voted with Republicans to repeal but I’m not sure Hoffman did.
Yeah, that's it. Use FR as a place to advocate for "shooting back".
Grow up.
I grew up in northern Michigan, and we had some of that in our lingo, too! What I found most amusing is that when Fargo came out, people were acting like they discovered a new uncontacted tribe. The nation’s culture is overwhelmed by the east coast, west coast and to a lesser extent, the south, and I think that is to our national detriment.
Re:2 - you can forget that. There are posters that WANT their to be violence. All from the comfort of behind their monitors.
