More than 100 police officers searched for two days for the suspect in the shootings of two Minnesota state lawmakers and their spouses. They finally captured him late Sunday, the hunt ending when he crawled to officers who had tracked him to a field outside Minneapolis. The suspect, Vance Boelter, 57, had been on the run for a day and a half when investigators found his car and hat Sunday afternoon on a remote stretch of road in Sibley County, a largely rural area southwest of Minneapolis — about an hour’s drive from the sites of the attacks early...

NEW YORK (AP) — The man accused of assassinating the top Democrat in the Minnesota House held deeply religious and politically conservative views, telling a congregation in Africa two years ago that the U.S. was in a “bad place” where most churches didn’t oppose abortion. Vance Luther Boelter, 57, was captured late Sunday following a two-day manhunt authorities described as the largest in the state’s history. Boelter is accused of impersonating a police officer and gunning down former House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, in their home outside Minneapolis. Democratic Gov. Tim Walz described the shooting as “a...

Vance Luther Boelter isn’t just a name in the headlines, he’s a man with layers, a past, and a family caught in the storm of his actions. Before he became the prime suspect in a politically charged shooting spree that left a Minnesota lawmaker dead and others critically injured, he was a husband, a father, and a man with a résumé that didn’t scream “violent extremist.” But now, the world is scrambling to understand how someone with his background could be linked to such brutality. Boelter, 57, wasn’t always a fugitive. He was once a respected professional, holding a doctorate...

A former appointee of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz is being sought in connection with the assassination of a state lawmaker and the shooting of another, police sources said. Vance Luther Boelter allegedly posed as a police officer when he shot Sen.

Former Acting US Secret Service Director Ron Rowe has finally resigned from the agency. Earlier this year President Trump announced Sean Curran, one of the agents who surrounded him following the Butler assassination attempt, as the new Secret Service Director. Ron Rowe who served as the acting Secret Service Director after Kim Cheatle resigned last summer remained on payroll as a “senior advisor” for several months. Rowe is a typical Washington bureaucrat who led the bureau before the second assassination attempt on Trump’s life during the 2024 Campaign. Director Rowe also was caught in a blatant lie after President Trump...

A now-deceased official with President Donald Trump’s National Security Council received a report suggesting that the 2017 Las Vegas shooting may not have been the work of a “lone gunman” with no discernible motive, but rather a terrorist attack perpetrated by at least two men with possible ties to ISIS and/or ANTIFA, according to National File.

With the discovery that the single-bullet theory is very probably a physical impossibility, it is perhaps appropriate to review the evidence of extra bullets and misses in Dealey Plaza. Since it now seems clear that the single-bullet theory is impossible, we can be very confident that more than one gunman fired at President Kennedy. We can also be virtually certain that, contrary to the lone-gunman theory, more than three bullets were fired during the shooting. This being the case, researchers need to take another look at the accounts of extra bullets striking in Dealey Plaza during the shooting, and to...
