'Minnesota governor issues 'warning order' to prepare state's national guard following fatal shooting by ICE agent
At a press conference, Minnesota governor Tim Walz said that hes issued a warning order to prepare the states national guard. We have soldiers in training and prepared to be deployed if necessary, he noted. I remind you, a warning order is a heads up for folks.
Walz added: I have a very simple message, we do not need any further help from the federal government. Donald Trump and Kristi Noem, youve done enough.

Of course they want disruption and chaos, thinking that they will come out on top. But Governor Walz doesn't have to walk on eggshells now that he has announced that he is not running for governor again.

Thats their acceptable number for collateral damage, for law and order
I have to wonder if thats also an acceptable number of casualties, for stateside operations.
