    He did the brutal crackdown on Minneapolis.

    Governor Tim Walz activated the Minnesota National Guard in response to civil unrest. The 7,123 troops activated represented the largest deployment of the state’s forces since World War II.[35] By early June 2020, violence in the Minneapolis–Saint Paul metropolitan area had resulted in at least two deaths,[36] 604 arrests, and more than $500 million[7] in damage to approximately 1,500 properties, the second-most destructive period of local unrest in U.S. history, after the 1992 Los Angeles riots.[37][8][38][39] Violent protests in Minneapolis–Saint Paul over Floyd’s murder largely subsided after May 30, 2020.[30][40] The Minnesota National Guard and a multi-jurisdiction government command that responded to the riots demobilized on June 7, 2020.[41][35]

        walz isn’t a cop just a liberal bootlicker

        Not that the distinction is really that meaningful here

        Edit: oh right he was in the national guard. Not deployed to civil unrest that I’ve seen but yea

            governor but same same. jacob frey is the mayor in this case and is somehow worse than walz (well and whoever was in st paul at the time). Also Minneapolis is literally set up where the mayor basically gets sole control of the police iirc, city council gets nothin
