Overview
- President Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One that he saw no reason to call Gov. Tim Walz, calling him “whacked out” and “a mess.”
- Authorities arrested Vance Boelter on Sunday following what officials described as the largest manhunt in Minnesota history.
- Boelter is charged with six federal and four state counts and is accused of compiling a hit list targeting Democratic lawmakers and abortion rights activists.
- Gov. Walz appointed Boelter to the Minnesota Workforce Development Board in 2019, a fact Trump cited while baselessly linking the governor to the shooter.
- Walz spoke Saturday with Vice President JD Vance to coordinate the state’s response alongside federal law enforcement.
