1. The Governor, once again, is being the adult

in the room.

2. I'm sorry, but that's just limp dick

Call out your National Guard

Have MN PD arrest these ICE holes

Stop whining like you're begging citizens for help

4. Exactly.

If he really thinks the Fuhrer or ICE is going to listen to these type of appeals, he is out of his mind.

5. I hear ya, and yeah maybe that would work and I want him to send back a note that says "nuts" but...

That's why I'm sitting here and Tim Walz is sitting there.

I just gotta say I watched the Minneapolis mayor in a press conference and I thought he might cry. I sure did.

He said there are 600 city police on staff and 2000 ICE agents are in the city.

3. "This is not who we are." What's this "we," governor? What is "fan the flames"?

8. "This is who we always have been."

[Mister Ed]

6. Our Governor Walz is not the feckless fool that a few on this thread seem to think him to be.

He is a wise and resolute leader with a great burden of responsibility and a very difficult hand to play. He does not have the luxury of venting online like an anonymous internet poster.

Those who wish to hear a more inspiring message from him should view this video:

And seriously: the Minnesota National Guard is not going to engage in a bloody shooting war with the 3,000 ICE agents that have invaded our state. Those who think that they should or would are...greatly mistaken.

7. I'm so sorry this is happening.

9. "Governor Walz Speaks to Minnesota: Calls for Mass Resistance: Takes Your Breath Away."
