Walz is the ‘confederacy’ in what he calls ‘civil war’ in Minnesota
Tiana Lowe Doescher, an economics columnist for the Washington Examiner, criticized Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz for describing unrest in the state as a “civil war,” saying on Fox News at Night that Walz is acting like “the confederacy” by trying to violate federal law. Doescher argued the conflict centers on immigration enforcement: whether ICE can operate as it does in conservative states to arrest criminal noncitizens, or whether sanctuary policies restrict those actions.
She also noted Walz told MS Now that former President Trump called him about protests over immigration enforcement, suggesting Trump did so because his poll numbers were slipping. Doescher said Trump understands voters’ appetite for avoiding public disorder and framed any federal action Trump offers Walz as a political concession rather than a legal entitlement.
Walz is the ‘confederacy’ in what he calls ‘civil war’ in Minnesota: Tiana Lowe Doescher
Washington Examiner economics columnist Tiana Lowe Doescher criticized Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) for invoking the idea that the events in Minnesota are a “civil war,” arguing he is trying to “violate” federal law.
“News flash Tim Walz in this case you are the confederacy because you are the one that is trying to violate federal law,” she said on Fox News at Night Thursday evening.
In an interview with MS Now Wednesday, Walz said President Donald Trump called him about the protest against immigration enforcement in Minnesota, because Trump’s “poll numbers” were dropping.
Doescher said Trump understands what the people want from the federal government.
“Anything Trump gives Tim Walz at this point is a concession because President Trump likes looking at the polls,” she said. “He understands Americans don’t necessarily have a huge appetite for these brawls in the streets.”
TIM WALZ SAYS HE WILL NEVER RUN FOR ANY OFFICE AGAIN
Doescher argued the debate about immigration isn’t about changing federal immigration law.
“President Trump already tried that in his first term doing DACA for the wall,” she said. “This is just about, does ICE get to do it the way they do in red states? Which is to go to the jails and get the criminal illegals, or because of sanctuary policies, are they forced to do these raids?”
“Anything Donald Trump gives Tim Walz is a concession, not a right,” she said.
