President Donald Trump is threatening to invoke the Insurrection Act in Minnesota after Governor Tim Walz—Kamala Harris's failed 2024 running mate—made a desperate "direct appeal" to the White House for help controlling violent anti-ICE demonstrations raging across the state.

The same Tim Walz who spent months on the campaign trail calling Trump a "fascist" is now literally begging the President to save his political hide as radical leftists torch Minneapolis—again—to protest Trump's promised mass deportation operations.

White House sources confirm that Walz called for "turning the temperature down" during his panicked outreach to Trump's team, a laughable request from the governor who stood by while his state burned during the 2020 BLM riots and whose own running mate spent four years calling MAGA supporters "domestic terrorists."

Walz's Hypocrisy Reaches New Heights

Remember, this is the same Tim Walz who:

• Let Minneapolis burn for days in 2020 before requesting federal help
• Called the National Guard "domineering" when Trump suggested deployment
• Spent 2024 campaigning on how "dangerous" Trump would be as president

Now that the radical left's chickens are coming home to roost, suddenly Walz wants Trump's "fascist" federal government to bail him out. The irony would be hilarious if it wasn't so pathetic.

"Governor Walz made his bed with these radical anti-American elements. Now he can lie in it," a senior White House official told reporters.

The President hasn't ruled out federal intervention, but sources suggest any assistance would come with strings attached—including full cooperation with ICE deportation operations and an end to Minnesota's sanctuary policies that created this mess in the first place.

This is what happens when weak, woke politicians pander to the radical left instead of standing up for law and order. Walz spent years enabling this chaos, and now he wants the adults to clean up his mess.

Will Trump bail out the man who spent months calling him Hitler? Or will Minnesota finally face the consequences of electing spineless Democrats who coddle criminals and illegal aliens?

I served 20 years to protect this country from enemies foreign and domestic. Seeing American cities burn while officials do nothing makes my blood boil. Use whatever tools necessary to restore peace.

Can someone explain exactly what powers the Insurrection Act gives the president? Is this similar to what Lincoln used during the Civil War?

This is what happens when you elect governors who sympathize with lawbreakers over law enforcement.

Walz was too weak during the 2020 riots in Minneapolis and he's proving weak again. Some people never learn.

About time! Trump warned us this would happen if Harris-Walz got in. Law and order needs to be restored immediately.

These anti-ICE riots are getting out of hand. My brother works for ICE and says morale is at rock bottom with all the attacks on agents trying to do their jobs.

Absolutely. ICE agents are heroes protecting our communities.
