Anti-ICE agitators demanded amnesty with a specific suggestion about Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s manhood while he reaped the consequences for having initially “bent the knee to the woke mob.”
“… now they own him.”
Thus far falling short of resigning, the Democrat governor has proven he no longer holds cachet with the rabid rabble rousers who once supported him by suspending his re-election campaign. That didn’t stop them from trying to squeeze every last drop of fealty to their globalist agenda out of him as a new protest outside his residence demanded “legalization for all.”
As demonstrators held signs from the Minnesota Immigrant Rights Action Committee (MIRAC) in both English and Spanish, speakers backed by organizations like Twin Cities Coalition For Justice and the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) Minnesota, one argued, “Governor Walz, you have the power to stop this. You have the authority to enforce the law. You have the responsibility to protect families, not break them apart. We are demanding legalization for all. Not half measures. Not political compromises. Not silence dressed up as progress.”
“We truly hope that what we are witnessing now with Operation Metro Surge is the moment you finally grow a pair and do what is right before you exit the governor’s office,” she went on in demanding Walz take action outside of the purview of a state governor. “Legalization for all is not radical, it is necessary.”

The protest outside the governor’s mansion was only the latest such instance of the mob turning on Walz. At the end of January, joined by Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey (D) and others, the failed Democrat vice presidential candidate had met with President Donald Trump’s border czar, Tom Homan.
That meeting at the governor’s office had been disrupted by protestors with chants of “ICE Out!” while signs were waved with messages like “Justice Not Gestures.”
Similarly, Walz had been seen appealing to agitators days earlier at the governor’s mansion, speaking into a bullhorn from behind his gated fence. As U.S. Air Force veteran and comedian Vincent Oshana put it, “This photo sums up everything that’s happening in Minnesota.”
“Tim Walz, behind the gate of his mansion with security, telling his useful idiots to go die to distract from the billions of dollars of fraud in his state and to keep protecting illegals, aka Democrat voters,” added the actor.

Reactions on social media had little sympathy for the governor as they argued he’d earned the disruption: “No matter how far left they go, it’ll never be enough to satisfy the screaming jobless mob of welfare recipients and public school teachers.”
Others were surprised that, just as he’d previously dispatched the National Guard to the scenes of protests, Walz hadn’t used the service members again to provide coffee and donuts to the agitators outside the residence.

You spend years pandering and they still show up at your house yelling. That’s the coalition.

Surprised he hasn’t sent the Guard out with lattes and donuts

So they know he has absolutely no authority to do that? Bless their hearts 😏

Wait until they find out that he CAN’T legalize them.

He bent the knee to the woke mob and now they own him.
You can’t negotiate or reason with these overgrown toddlers. He should’ve known better.
