Scott Jennings Mocked For 'F**king Stupid' Take On Tim Walz Statement About Minnesota
HuffPost
The conservative commentator delivered what critics called an "unfathomably" dumb misreading of Gov. Tim Walz's clear call for peace in Minnesota.
Conservative commentator Scott Jennings on Thursday twisted Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s (D) clear call for peace, claiming the governor “believes he is seceding from the Union” — and online critics pounced on Jennings’ “unfathomably stupid” reaction.
Minnesotans have been protesting since local resident Renee Good was fatally shot by a federal immigration officer last week. President Donald Trump on Thursday threatened to invoke the Insurrection Act of 1807 to deploy the U.S. military against American citizens.
Walz hoped to alleviate local tensions Thursday with an assuring post on X.
“State investigators have been on the scene in Minneapolis,” the governor wrote. “I know you’re angry. I’m angry. What Donald Trump wants is violence in the streets. But Minnesota will remain an island of decency, of justice, of community, and of peace. Don’t give him what he wants.”
It’s unclear whether Jennings intentionally misconstrued the post when he reshared it and wrote, “‘Minnesota will remain an island.’ Walz cannot be more explicit — this buffoon believes he is seceding from the Union. We are well into Insurrection Act territory.”
