Debunking Claims Linking Walz to Minnesota ShootingsSuspect Boelter was reappointed to a workforce board in 2019; no proof connects Governor Walz to the shootings or suspect's motives.
- Conservative figures quickly spread unfounded claims framing the suspect as a left-wing extremist targeting Democrats after the shootings.
- Vance Luther Boelter, the identified suspect, had been reappointed by Governor Walz to a workforce board in 2019 without personal ties to the governor.
- Governor Walz condemned the shootings as targeted political violence and stated no evidence links him to the attacks.
- Authorities revealed Boelter had a list of approximately 70 targets, including Democratic lawmakers and health care locations.
The Vice President candidate for the Democrat party is directly connected to a domestic terrorist, that is confirmed, the only question is whether Tim Walz himself ordered the political hit against a rival who voted against Walz’s plan to give free healthcare to illegals.— Mike Cernovich speculated in a post on X about the connections between Gov. Walz and the suspect.

Asylum Seeker Sentenced for Online Child ExploitationA 30-year-old Yemeni man was jailed for 20 months after attempting to solicit explicit images from a 14-year-old in Norwich last year.
- Rashid Al-Waeli attempted to coerce a minor into sending indecent images while staying in government-provided accommodation in Norwich.
- The victim was an adult decoy working with a paedophile hunter group, who alerted the police leading to Al-Waeli’s arrest.
- He pleaded guilty to multiple child sex offences and was sentenced to 20 months in prison, plus a 10-year sexual harm prevention order.
- Due to the sentence length, his asylum claim faces rejection, though human rights protections might apply because of risks in Yemen.
