Now We Know Why the Minnesota Assassin Story Disappeared Overnight
https://pjmedia.com/matt-margolis/ ^ | June 20, 2025 | Matt Margolis

Have you wondered why the story of the Minnesota assassin Vance Boelter has suddenly vanished from the news? Now we have a pretty good idea why.

Boelter, who murdered State Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband while also shooting State Sen. John Hoffman and his wife, unleashed terror that sparked a massive manhunt before his capture late Sunday. Initial media coverage was rife with speculation, with left-leaning outlets eager to cast Boelter as a MAGA Republican, hastily blaming the GOP and even President Donald Trump for inciting his shooting spree.

Yet the letter found in Boelter’s abandoned vehicle tells a radically different story, one that not only exposes the media’s rush to judgment and political opportunism but sudden drop in coverage.

According to Minnesota’s largest newspaper, the Star-Tribune, Boelter believed he was acting under the supposed orders of Democrat Gov. Tim Walz. Boelter’s incoherent letter, about a page and a half long, bizarrely claimed that killing Sen. Amy Klobuchar was necessary to clear the way for Walz to run for the U.S. Senate.

"The letter is the clearest evidence yet of Boelter’s mindset after the targeted violence against Minnesota politicians last week. It is incoherent, one and a half pages long, confusing and hard to read, according to two people familiar with the letter’s contents. It includes Boelter alleging he had been trained by the U.S. military off the books, and that Walz, who is not running for Senate, had asked him to kill Klobuchar and others.

Asked to comment about the letter, Hennepin County Attorney spokesperson Daniel Borgertpoepping said the office cannot comment on an open investigation but “due to the seriousness of the allegations it contains, we will state only that we have seen no evidence that the allegations regarding Governor Walz are based in fact.”"

Yes, once the connections to Walz (real or imagined on the killer’s part) you knew this story would quickly disappear.

Same why there were similar style shootings in two different parts of the country at roughly the same time - the shooting that supposedly was done by a “right wing” shooter was heavily covered - actually they both were - but when the second one was revealed to be a “left wing” inspired shooter, the “right wing” one was the only one that continued to go covered and that was used to promote a narrative of “Republican inspired violence” and the other one was completely “forgotten”

If I have the count correct the murderer visited four different houses once he “went to war”—and none of them belonged to Klobuchar.

Nothing about this case makes any sense at all.

There are simply bigger fish to fry, news-wise. No Kings. Iran/Israel. The MN case will keep until trial.

The dark side needs more time to get the ‘true story’ assembled. In the meantime, hopefully the jail security cams don’t malfunction.

I agree. The shooter is in danger of being offed by Walzenistas.

“we have seen no evidence that the allegations regarding Governor Walz are based in fact.” It’s funny. They say nothing to see here. Yet, Trump was accused, investigated, and impeached for accusations that had no truth. But when a D is accused, or inferred, nope, nothing here. Hypocrisy of the 1st order..

What about the pizza guy roomate who claimed the shooter was MAGA?
Sounds like a boldfaced lie to mislead the investigators and the public to me.
Isn't that a crime? Are charges being prepared?

cannot comment on an open investigation

Except to say that all violence is caused by right wing fanatics. All left wing violence is peaceful and proper.

The only thing missing is that was was 'trans'...That said, the FBI should investigate this as a real possibility... They're all nuts on that side.

“Incoherent, rambling statements that are confusing and hard to read.”

Give ‘em to us at FR, we’ll quickly make sense of them.
