It seems that the utterly outrageous video released on Wednesday night by Minnesota’s quite unpredictable Democrat governor, Tim Walz, wasn’t received very positively at the White House.
In the video, Walz comes off less like a governor and more like a man cheering on the mob. Nearly foaming at the mouth, he urges Minnesotans to seek out activist groups that train agitators, to film every immigration enforcement action they can find, and to help compile a surveillance-style database aimed at targeting and prosecuting ICE agents.
In other words, he’s openly encouraging civilians to interfere with federal law enforcement and manufacture chaos — the exact kind of reckless behavior that leads to dangerous confrontations, including the one that ended with far-left agitator Renee Nicole Good dead. That isn’t leadership. It’s incitement dressed up as “activism.”

He actually said this:
ICE agents are going door-to-door ordering people to point out where their neighbors of color live. They’re pulling over people indiscriminately, including U.S. citizens, and demanding to see their papers. And at grocery stores, bus stops, even at our schools.
They’re breaking windows, dragging pregnant women down the street – just plain grabbing Minnesotans and shoving them into unmarked vans. Kidnapping innocent people with no warning and no due process.
Walz tried to launder his recklessness with a steady stream of “peaceful” buzzwords, but the message underneath was unmistakable: endanger yourself and everyone around you so violent illegal aliens can stay embedded in your neighborhoods. The sanctimonious language is pure camouflage, a smoke-and-mirrors routine designed to distract from the growing $9 billion Somali fraud scandal hanging over his administration.
Well, the president of the United States – that’s all states, including Minnesota – has had enough.
Trump’s response to Walz is equally clear: stop the attacks on ICE immediately or he’ll use the Insurrection Act to “quickly put an end to the travesty that is taking place” in Minnesota. Trump issued his warning in a Thursday morning Truth Social post that called on “the corrupt politicians of Minnesota” to “obey the law stop the professional agitators and insurrectionists from attacking the Patriots of I.C.E.”

The Insurrection Act comprises a collection of federal laws that empower the president of the United States to deploy military forces domestically to restore order during specific situations. This act represents one of the most significant emergency powers granted to the president by law.
If he chooses to go this route, Trump could deploy the U.S. military and National Guard to:
- Suppress insurrection, rebellion, or domestic violence;
- Enforce federal law when state authorities cannot or will not; and
- Protect constitutional rights when states fail to do so.
Trump isn’t bluffing or posturing. This isn’t a game of chicken. He’s telling Tim Walz exactly what he means: end the political theater, restore order, and do your job — or the federal government will step in and clean up the mess you refuse to handle.
In a rather ironic twist, Walz’s troubling video surfaced just as independent investigative journalist Nick Shirley unveiled a groundbreaking report exposing the fraud that occurred during Walz’s administration. We reported on it; you can see that report here.
