Is this Tim Walz's One Minnesota?

When Tim Walz first coined the phrase "One Minnesota", I'm confident that he didn't want it to become a negative. Thanks to his failure to address crime, and Keith Ellison's failure too, Minneapolis has become one of the most violent cities in the US.

According to Stephen Montemayor’s Star Tribune article, Minneapolis is a Minnesotan's nightmare. Montemayor reported about "United States Attorney for Minnesota Andrew Luger", who "called a press conference to discuss the strategy he is pursuing with other state and federal law enforcement agencies to address violent crime in the Twin Cities."

Montemayor continued, writing "'What law enforcement is encountering on the streets of Minneapolis, St. Paul and other cities today is far more disturbing than even the alarming numbers show,' Luger said. 'By their actions, their weapons and their words, violent offenders are displaying an absolute disdain for the law and a disregard for human life.'"

It's perilously obvious that Tim Walz and Keith Ellison aren't up to the job of making Minneapolis's streets safe. Neither is Ilhan Omar. If Minneapolis doesn't stop voting for DFL whacked-ivists, then they should be forced to live with this violence. If they're willing to set ideology aside, now's the time to vote out Ellison, Walz and Omar.

Then there's this from Montemayor's article:

He illustrated a criminal landscape where violent offenders feel more emboldened to deploy militaristic weapons while trafficking potentially lethal doses of fentanyl all out of a belief that they will not be caught or held accountable. Luger attributed that ethos to feedback from some of those arrested in recent operations.

More than 100 officers, including those from out-of-state special response teams, convened in the Twin Cities on Thursday to arrest 15 people on federal gun charges. The operation included the seizure of 29 firearms and three auto sear devices used to turn otherwise semiautomatic weapons into fully automatic machine guns, Luger said.

Where is Dean Phillips with all this happening? He's part of the Problem Solvers Caucus in the US House of Representatives. Based on Montemayor's article, perhaps it's time to form a Crisis Solvers Caucus in the House. Between crime in places in Minneapolis and the open borders crisis on the Tex-Mex border, there's certainly enough crises to fix.

Tim Walz doesn't have a plan to make Minneapolis streets safer. He has a plan to spend lots of money on 'public safety' but he doesn't have a plan to make Minneapolis streets safer. To fix that crisis requires leadership, something that Gov. Walz is missing. Walz is running from defending his terrible record on fighting crime:

The special response teams, a tactical group, travel to high-crime areas to help arrest those deemed to present the highest risk of violence. "While we are fortunate that two of these elite teams traveled to our communities to arrest high-level targets," Luger said, "it is sad news that we in Minnesota need them in the first place. But we do."

It isn't just sad that these elite teams are required. It's frightening, too.
