Minnesota in the Balance

So, what is next in Minnesota?  One of the Left’s acolytes tried to play “chicken” with the ICE agents and got herself killed.  That’s pretty scary stuff.  The real question is what comes next?  Will they escalate and attack the agents again?  Or will they back off?  I start to wonder if even they know what they’re doing.  These are highly emotional almost emotionally disturbed individuals who have been preached to by people on the Left who don’t seem to care that they’re going to get some of them killed.  These provocateurs are the same sort that attacked Kyle Rittenhouse during the George Floyd riots of 2020.  They rile up the useful idiots who follow these protests and that is exactly how you end up with a woman who has no idea how dangerous it is to drive into a police operation and then disobey the orders of those police when they point their guns at you and tell you to get out of your car, get herself killed.

I heard Walz addressing his constituents and begging them not to give Trump an excuse for declaring martial law or invoking the Insurrection Act.  And this makes me wonder whether this is just cover.  Would Walz be happier if things blow up in Minnesota or would he prefer the fraud investigation to be the top news item in the country.  I honestly don’t know the answer to that.  Minnesota is a bottomless pit of leftist madness so it’s almost impossible to know which crazy cause or interest group will erupt into madness next.  But it looks like Minnesota is going to be ground zero for all of the problems that Donald Trump is trying to fix; fraud in government programs funded by the Biden administration, sanctuary state activities that interfere with ICE arrests of illegal aliens, transgender policies that lead to minors receiving dangerous medical treatments and finally discrimination against anyone who doesn’t follow the progressive mantra.

The flip-side of this question about Minnesota is what will Trump do?  Will he back off after the death of Renee Good or will he continue to arrest illegal aliens that are emphatically present all-around Minneapolis.  This is million-dollar question.  Trump has staked his presidency on deporting the millions of illegals hiding in the blue states.  If he lets Minnesota or New York or California defy him and prevent the deportations he will lose his backing.  But at the same time, he knows he can’t spook the moderates by appearing to turn the country into a battle ground.  So, he has to strike a balance.  And that is why the death of Renee Good is a tricky problem.  Will it scare Trump?

I hope the answer is no.  I think in the long run the vigorous enforcement of the immigration law will have both a positive effect on Trump’s voters and a negative effect on the Left’s morale and election turnout.  So, I think along with his efforts to improve the economy Trump shouldn’t be afraid to go after sanctuary states like Minnesota as hard as he can.  That’s my opinion.

This is what I voted for. Vigorous enforcement of the Law, no matter how high it goes, and the expulsion of illegals, AND those that may have obtained citizenship, but with fraudulent, if not CRIMINAL intent.
