How Tim Walz was accused of letting Minnesota 'burn' during the George Floyd riots and was governor during a $250 million COVID fraud
Protests of George Floyd's death at the hands of Minneapolis police in May 2020 soon escalated into violence, as rioters burned and looted businesses in the Twin Cities.
Walz resisted sending in the National Guard to address the escalating violence in the city for three days but ultimately chose to do so after receiving heavy criticism from residents for allowing the city to burn after rioters overwhelmed the state and local police force.
At the time, Walz argued that calling up the National Guard to enforce order would only incite further rioting, and suggested that protesters needed the space to express their outrage.
=================================================
On Sunday October 1st, the Metro Area Sales Tax will rise 1%, a measure included in May’s final state budget agreement between state lawmakers and Governor Walz.
The 1% Metro Sales Tax hike is one of a slew of tax increases approved by the 2023 Minnesota Legislature and Governor Walz. The sales tax hike alone will cost small businesses, consumers, and taxpayers $3 billion over the next four years.
