Minnesota’s government is aiding violent rioters. There’s only one solution.
And now Tim Walz is quaking in his boots after Trump called up thousands of US soldiers.
Trump’s Bold Stand for Law and Order in Minnesota
Under President Trump’s decisive leadership, the administration is readying 1,500 elite troops from the U.S. Army’s 11th Airborne Division—specialists in challenging environments—for possible deployment to Minnesota, as confirmed by a senior U.S. official.
This proactive measure comes amid escalating chaos from anti-ICE protesters harassing federal agents in the Twin Cities, highlighting Trump’s commitment to safeguarding those enforcing our nation’s laws against radical agitators.
The Pentagon’s preparedness underscores the administration’s no-nonsense approach to restoring peace, especially after a massive fraud scandal prompted the deployment of 3,000 federal agents last year.
“The Department of War is always prepared to execute the orders of the Commander-in-Chief if called upon,” Chief Pentagon Spokesman Sean Parnell said in a statement to Fox News.
Trump’s firm warning on Truth Social set the tone: “If the corrupt politicians of Minnesota don’t obey the law and stop the professional agitators and insurrectionists from attacking the Patriots of I.C.E., who are only trying to do their job, I will institute the INSURRECTION ACT.”
Strategic Restraint Amid Rising Tensions
Even as protests intensify following the January 7 incident where activist Renee Nicole Good was fatally shot while reportedly attempting to ram an ICE agent, President Trump has shown measured restraint, emphasizing that invoking the Insurrection Act—last used effectively during the 1992 Los Angeles riots—is a powerful tool he’s prepared to wield only if necessary.
His administration’s advance orders for the Alaska-based division demonstrate foresight in protecting federal operations, while Trump’s Friday comments reflect his confidence in local authorities stepping up, avoiding unnecessary escalation.
“I believe it was Bush, the elder Bush, he used it, I think 28 times,” Trump told reporters while departing the White House. “It’s been used a lot. And if I needed it, I’d use it. I don’t think there’s any reason right now to use it, but if I needed it, I’d use it. It’s very powerful.”
This balanced strategy contrasts with the reluctance of some Republicans, like Senate Majority Leader John Thune, who expressed hope that local officials could handle the situation without federal intervention, saying: “Hopefully the local officials working with not only the federal law enforcement, ICE and other agencies, but also the local law enforcement officials, will be able to settle things down.”
Defending Federal Patriots Against Agitators
Trump’s readiness to deploy troops builds on his proven track record of prioritizing national security and supporting ICE “Patriots” amid confrontations fueled by protesters in Minneapolis and St. Paul. With incidents like the detention of Aliya Rahman near the shooting scene, the president’s actions aim to deter further violence and ensure agents can combat illegal immigration without fear.
By preparing forces while holding back on the Insurrection Act, Trump exemplifies strong, principled governance that puts American safety first, even as critics downplay the threats facing our border enforcers.
