BREAKING UPDATE: A Minnesota lawmaker and her husband were killed in a "politically motivated assassination" by a suspect posing as police, officials say, and another state lawmaker and his wife were injured. A massive manhunt is underway. Follow live updates: cnn.it/3FWCwda
No law in USA?
MAGA HAVE LAUNCHED WAR!!!
💔
Walz must do whatever he can to keep the suspect, when caught, in state custody\state charges. Otherwise he’ll walk.
MAGA is a terrorist organization
Minnesota MAGA terrorist, Vance Boelter, has accomplices.He was having financial difficulties at the time of the shootings.He is an ardent Trump supporter according to friends.Trump said Sen Padilla looks like an "illegal". What would Trump say he looks like? www.thedailybeast.com/wife-of-minn...
I wonder why Tim Walz appointed the guy to the Minnesota Workforce Development Board and if the killing had anything to do w the victim being the lone Democrat to side w Republicans in cutting benefits to illegals in MN?
Because dems are dumb and attempt bipartisanship. Sorry the private security Christian nationalist was not a liberal. Nice try scum
The suspect was spotted wearing a MAGA hat and a Confederate flag handkerchief around his neck.
Interesting considering he was a Walz political appointee & killed the lone Democrat who sided w Republicans in cutting benefits to illegals in MN last week…
Is this what Kristi Noem meant by liberating democratic governments?
Hey CNN. - are you not allowed to say they were prominent Democrats ? Are you waiting for the ok
This is all on Trump and his MAGA cronies. Trump and all of you who have voted for him are disgusting and do not deserve to be called American.
The Republic Party is a domestic terrorist organization. Act accordingly.
💔💔💔💔
It's going to much much worse soon in our country, Buckle up, because we are now there, the red line has been crossed in my eyes.
They were Democrats, and your headline should say that. Facts are facts even if CNN doesn't believe in them anymore.

The right has been itching for the left to draw the first blood, and it looks like they’ve gotten sick of waiting
1) He may be a Proud Boy or Oath Keeper. You don't think they all went straight now do you? You know these groups have always existed. Our own government warned us a couple of years ago that the greatest threat to America was domestic terrorism. Not IMMIGRANT TERRORISM but WHITE TERRORISM. They've
2) ALWAYS known that there were white guys in the sticks, practicing and promoting the overtaking of the government. Holding ARMED drills. How long do you think they would let black people be out practicing to overtake the government? Are these people even under surveillance since leaving
3) prison? The Democrats and our TRUE Law and Order champions, throughout the the country, should think outside the box. Lock them up and DEPORT them to a prison outside of the country!! No person of color has their own FAKE POLICE CAR! We get pulled over in REGULAR ones. There is only ONE problem
3) we have. It has an orange face, a red neck, a black heart, and a rainbow of other descriptions. I just don't know what color is assigned to STUPID, or EVIL, COWARDLY, etc. HE killed these people! Good luck keeping everyone calm today at these rallies. God help us. But it's time to start policing
4)white men. It's time to start pulling them over because they have something dangling from the rear view mirror like has been used in so many traffic stops for people of color. THEY ride around with guns too. To borrow a line I heard somewhere, AMERICANS, "STAND BACK AND STAND BY"!! Stop this!

in this admin pardoning Jan 6th convicted felons who beat law enforcement officers set the stage of an already volatile us against the enemy mentality- really it is US citizens with. a difference of opinion-WE THE PEOPLE REJECT Russia's vision for america-let freedom ring!
THAT IS A PURE TERRORIST ATTACK AND MURDER!! TERRORISTS MUST BE IMPRISONED AND PUNISHED IMMIDIATELY!!
No need to wonder who will say first that BOTH sides need to tone it down: NONE OTHER THAN JAKE TAPPER, I do believe
skywriter.blue/pages/did:pl...
I expected this guy to be Republican only because it seems as though everyone who acts out in violence seems to be Republican even the people who attempt to assassinate Trump. Trump gives them permission to be violent because he's violent.
Laughing off violent political rhetoric / promoting conspiracy theories is DANGEROUS. Pardoning cop-beating insurrectionists (or shrugging it off) is disgusting. More people should be ASHAMED of themselves and the careless, proactively ignorant way they behave when they stumble into a voting booth.
What if he wasn’t “posing”?
CNN wanted this.
CNN left out that the terrorist who shot both Democrat officials is a registered Republican.
We should live in a world where politicians from both sides condemn political assassinations. Unfortunately one side including Trump will be silent or say something to make the situation wrong! I hope I am wrong.
why dont you mention that they are democrats in the headline?
I'm surprised you MAGAt sympathizers at CNN haven't come out and blamed the victims.
Fight or fascism! Make your choice.
How many people will be kidnapped by people posing as ICE?
nypost.com/2025/06/14/u...
Trump's Project 2025 leader: "We are in the process of the second American Revolution, which will remain bloodless if the left allows it to be” This was the Republican plan all along every single one of you is responsible, and we will hold you accountable
With this military parade, the army in California, repeated lies, Trump stimulates hatred and violence.
I am happy to see that none of the troops are carrying weapons.
You should be focusing on how Trump and his administration officials regularly call for violence against political opponents, how he pardoned far right extremists for the 1/6 insurrection, and how far right extremists are calling for violence this weekend www.wsj.com/politics/pol...
MAGA's intended purpose of the targeted political killings was to see cancellations of #NoKingsDay protest bsky.app/profile/raws...

This female is a monster 🤮
😔😓...
This falls in the lap of the GOP. As well as police departments and federal agencies that hid behind a mask and their badge. When will we learn to hold people accountable, specifically those in power so we don’t end up in situations like this. This also applies to corporations (ie UHC).
Why are reports saying the suspect was "cos-playing as police"? NO, HE WAS IMPERSONATING POLICE. This wasn't a game. It was calculated murder My guess is #trump pardons them because "they don't need their life ruined over one little thing"
In one article, they said “misrepresenting a police officer.” My sister made the statement - that it made her think he is a police officer who is “misrepresenting” the force. 🤨 she said the wording just got her.
Probably just a #MAGA terrorist‘s birthday gift for the fascist king of the #USA
"posing" MmHmm
trump's foot soldiers on the loose then & now; Fox commentator former FBI agent praises trump today but how they all forget JANUARY 6!
Well the solution, go shoot a Republican 🤷
CNN, are you seriously not saying “Democrats” in this headline? Even at this point in history?
MAGA = TERRORISTS. Nothing else
“If somebody comes to the door and they knock on the door claiming to be a police officer, please do a couple things: One, call 911 and confirm that the officer belongs there. …
If they are a police officer, dispatch will be able to confirm that that person is police officer,” Brooklyn Park Police Chief Mark Bruley said, addressing the community. 😂😂😂😡 How long do you think a police officer will wait while you check? Five seconds, then tear gas, guns, death.
Unfortunately, blood is on the hands of every single member in Congress for sitting back and allowing the heat and discrimination in our country since January shame on all of you Especially you CNN and FOX for always lying to the public
Shouldn't they be falling out of high rise windows??
You mean police are covering themselves?

It sounds like they have this killer the benefit of the doubt and believed them to be Leo. This is why ICE needs to better identify themselves. @schiff.senate.gov @schumer.senate.gov @booker.senate.gov @ossoff.senate.gov
Just as this twisted individual put so much premeditation into committing these assasinations, a likewise individual with different political beliefs just may do the same. Where does it stop? Does it even stop? Do we even have unified political leadership that wants it to stop?
umm, Hey Donnie? I know it's yer birthday and yer fucking around with tanks and shit, but could you and your band of dipshits figure out how to liberate Minnesota from murderous Republicans? Thank you for your attention to this matter!
They were assassinated. Words matter.
Weird to bury they were democrats.
Are we sure it wasn't just the police? The guy had a cop car
This is tRumplandia. We are in a fascist state and we live under authoritarian rule. America is lost.
@housedemocrats.bsky.social time to remove ice and declare Maga a terrorist organization in that they have a manifesto to assassinate democrats and are acting on it. Also hold all enablers accountable from top down.
Release the police sketch of suspect . The officers saw him include one who was shot. Let us hunt him down.
Will be interesting if felon Trump gave this terrorist/criminal a pardon??
We have been witnessing MAGA prove itself as an effective breeding ground for domestic terrorists, as expected. Trump is accelerating absolute power takeover by inciting violence among his craziest supporters and pushing the military to act illegally. Wake up, people.
Speaker Johnson should be censured for calling for political opponents to be tarred and feathered.
In light of this terrible tragedy it would be the right thing to do for the MORON in the WH to cancel his EGO Parade. This blood is on his hands. He's has allowed GOONS to run around the Country dressed as LEOs to terrorize people, this unspeakable crime is a direct result of that.
Horrible!! It's getting very, very nasty in the US! Never liked the thought to live in such a egocentric country, but now definitely not!
CNN you are one of the causes we have a violent political assassination attempt going on. It’s because it’s your trump propaganda that you push on your scumbag network!
This is Donald Trump's America. His persistent and unapologetic attacks of opposition and the people behind it have sowed such division that politically motivated violence became inevitable. This a tragedy. A truly terrible tragedy. God bless those impacted by this, may they stand strong.
Now put Scott Jennings on to explain it away you fuckin traitors.
Say it with me DEMOCRATIC lawmakers….
Put the party affiliation in the headline you fucking cowards
Assassinated - get your shit together and call it what it is.
Suspect is on foot, and will be caught!
The president, his cabinet, Republican representatives, governors and senators, and the Supreme Court are 100% responsible for this political violence. And they could stop it anytime. He wants Civil war
And the whitehouse says nothing ...... What fucking idiot the fat orange is.
YOU ENABLED THIS, @cnn.com Fuck you.
From CNN 35 minutes ago; “The Hoffmans are out of surgery at this time and receiving care, and we are cautiously optimally optimistic, they will survive this assassination attempt,” the governor said. Both lawmakers are members of the Minnesota Democratic–Farmer–Labor Party
Senator Thune, GOP majority leader, the time is now to speak up and out against the violence your party is creating. If you do, others will follow.
MAGA/Christian Terrorists
This is how the Trump administration and its supporters roll. “No Kings Day” protesters, be safe out there today!! THE FEAR AND INTIMIDATION OF THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION IS NOT WELCOME HERE!!
Is Kristi Noem rushing to Minnesota to help the shooter escape, or is she just going to celebrate in place? Republicans are violent fascists.
It was reported a dog was murdered too. Noem might be a hero to the murderer(s).
Trump has turned unstable people against their fellow Americans by gaslighting them into believing their fellow Americans are the enemy within.
Call it what Walz called it: an assasination.
If you are in a low risk group please try to find a way to get out there. #NoKings Thank you for your service Rep. Melissa Hortman DoD 6/14/2025
This is terrible, but typical of the times were hate rules, our politics, and a felon running the country. It wouldn't surprise me if the shooter wasn't someone Trump pardoned from January 6th.
When trying to determine his motivation for targeting DEMOCRAT lawmakers and source of his radicalization, the FBI should interview Donald Trump as a person of interest He habitually demonizes DEMOCRATS ("these people hate this country") and pardoned those who attacked the Capitol on January 6th
Important context: both lawmakers had just broke from their party and voted against free healthcare for illegal immigrants. Now carry on with your rants about Trump, fascism, and right wing extremism.
Important context, there was a full targeted list of people not just these two.
The REASON For The Political Violence Is The POLITICIANS Who Tell Their Supporters They Will PAY For Their Lawyers When They Commit Violence Against Their Opponents. These Politicians Keep Blaming Others When They Are The CAUSE. We MUST DEMAND THIS STOPS NOW!!!STOP VOTING FOR POLITICIANS WHO LIES!!
Assassination doesn’t need quotes and they are/were Democrats
Fix you're headline clowns.
Yeah, this asshole really values life.
This is maga trying to scare people away
MAGA killing
🕯
MAGA, the great disaster that many in US support
Why "posing" as police? The more likely scenario is that this WAS a police officer.
Assassinated. Diction matters.
Hey, Gov., sounds like you were right…it WAS politically motivated. Turns out, it may be one of your guys. How embarrassing for you. x.com/westernlensm...
Say the word: "TERRORIST".
Since your reporting is profoundly un informative please let this RN help you get this extremely important story out right: Two democrat lawmakers and their spouses were gunned down in their homes in MN by a Trump MAGA sycophant posing as a cop. It’s coordinated.
Maybe this will wake up the media to what is really going on instead of worrying about ratings and trying to be neutral and having the Trump apologist on to lie.
Now it’s just a matter of who outdraws who…
😡
Where is the reward money like Luigi had. Dead or alive right
This was the makeup of the MN Assembly as of yesterday, in case anyone was wondering why Republican MAGAts would do this:
??
@cnn.com when are you gonna inform people that those targeted were Democrats? People need to know that this is politically motivated domestic terrorism perpetrated against Democrats. Failure to be clear about that is journalistic malpractice.
