Glenn Beck exposes the REAL reason Tim Walz is fanning civil war flames — and it’s not Trump resistance
After the death of Renee Nicole Good — the woman shot and killed by an ICE agent in Minneapolis on January 7 after she struck him with her car during a large-scale immigration operation — Minnesota Governor Tim Walz (D), who publicly condemned the shooting as unnecessary, intentionally fanned the flames by issuing a warning order to prepare the National Guard for deployment.
The Constitution, specifically the Supremacy Clause, forbids state military forces from impeding, obstructing, or interfering with federal military or law enforcement officials carrying out federal duties, as federal law and authority are supreme over conflicting state actions.
Walz, says Glenn Beck, undoubtedly knows such a violation of this clause would mean serious consequences, so his words were clearly meant to accomplish a different purpose.
That purpose, he says, is to send a “signal” to “the Democrats’ own revolutionary guard.”
“Those are the people who have been so duped or … hate America because America is the worst place in the world … they’re on a mission to stop the federal government any way they possibly can,” Glenn explains.
In other words, Walz was stoking a “civil war.”
The following day, he went a step farther. At a press conference on January 8, Walz said, “When things looked really bleak, it was Minnesota First that held that line for the nation on that July 3, 1863, and I think now we may be in that moment, that the nation’s looking to us to hold the line on democracy, to hold the line on decency, to hold the line on accountability, and more than that, to rise up as neighbors and simply say, ‘We can look out for one another.”’
“What he’s doing here right now is just, it’s the most selfish thing I’ve ever seen. He is only protecting himself,” says Glenn, predicting that it’s a matter of time before Walz is behind bars for his almost certain complicity in the massive, mostly Somali-perpetrated fraud schemes uncovered in Minnesota.
“The guy is guilty,” he says frankly.
It’s this guilt — not anything related to Renee Good — that is fueling Walz’s recent statements, Glenn says.
“He, first of all, stole your money, gave it to people who were shipping it out of the country. He and his administration enabled and assisted in all of this, then turned a blind eye when everybody realized … something wrong is happening. They did nothing. Why? Because if they did something in the Somali community, it guaranteed that they would not be re-elected,” Glenn says.
“It was all about getting elected.”
Then when the fraud schemes started to catch up with him, prompting the massive influx of ICE officers into Minnesota, followed by protests and obstructions and eventually Good’s death, Walz saw an opportunity to take the spotlight off his own crimes by inciting radicals to resist federal agents, framing it as defending democracy and neighbors.
“He is calling for a civil war and making himself the white knight on the white horse, saying, ‘I’m just here to protect you’ … even though he’s the guy who enabled people to come into your house and steal all of your stuff,” scoffs Glenn. “He’s saying, ‘I’m here to protect you from the bad guys who are trying to put me in jail.”’
“He’s willing to have people killed. He is willing to see a civil war. For what reason? To keep him out of jail. I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything this selfish in my life.”

‘Despicable’: Woman accused of posing as grieving parent of dead Camp Mystic girl to bilk donors
Deadly flash floods swept the Lone Star State’s Hill Country region on July 4, killing at least 135 people, including 27 people at Camp Mystic.
Among those who perished at the Christian camp outside Hunt, Texas, was Chloe Childress, an 18-year-old counselor remembered by her family for her “contagious joy, countless friends, unending faith, and unimaginable energy.”
While Wendie and Matthew Childress were dealing with the sudden loss of their daughter, a Florida woman was allegedly impersonating the bereaved parents online in an attempt to make a quick buck.
‘This is bottom feeding.’
Maitlin White, a 28-year-old with ties to Crestview, Florida, has been charged with two felony counts of online impersonation. White allegedly pretended to be Matthew Childress and created SpotFund and GoFundMe pages where she solicited public donations to support the fallen teen’s family.
“Using a young woman’s tragic death to scam people is despicable,” wrote Harris County Precinct One Constable Alan Rosen.

Dane Schiller, a spokesman with the constable’s office, told MySA that Childress’ family reported the accounts, which first appeared on the crowdfunding platforms on July 8.
“Right out the gate, they [the family] called it to our attention and said, ‘We have nothing to do with this,'” said Schiller.
Rosen announced on July 11 that his office had launched an investigation into a case where a scammer was pretending to be Matthew Childress. While the fraudulent pages were promptly shut down, Rosen indicated the GoFundMe donation page had already brought in approximately $1,500.
After shutting down the pages, authorities reportedly tracked banking and online records back to White, who Schiller indicated admitted to the fraud scheme on a phone call with officials.
“This is bottom feeding, seeking to exploit people’s emotions and abuse the memory of a young woman who died in such a horrific tragedy all to make a quick and illegal buck,” stated Rosen. “Such cruelty to the family, as well as our entire community will not be tolerated.”
GoFundMe said in a statement obtained by KRIV-TV that it has “zero tolerance for the misuse of our platform and bad actors who seek to take advantage of the generosity of others,” adding that they “acted quickly to remove the fundraiser back in July, refund donors, and ban the account from future fundraising on GoFundMe.”
The crowdfunding platform indicated that the alleged fraudster was unable to access the funds.
White, who is reportedly not yet in custody, is hardly the only person who allegedly exploited the tragic flood.
For instance, a number of liberals tried to put a political spin on the deaths of American children, in one case insinuating that the parents of the dead were racists.

‘Most predatory corporate practices I have seen’
Fed Chairman Jerome Powell fears criminal indictment as Trump-Fed confrontation intensifies
In the latest escalation between the Trump administration and the Federal Reserve, the Department of Justice has issued grand jury subpoenas against the Fed, according to Chairman Jerome Powell.
On Sunday, the official Federal Reserve X account posted a video of Powell explaining the subpoenas and claiming that the DOJ was “threatening a criminal indictment related to my testimony before the Senate Banking Committee last June.”
‘The cost overruns are what they are.’
“That testimony concerned in part a multiyear project to renovate historic Federal Reserve office buildings,” Powell added.
In the video, Powell shows no sign of capitulating to President Trump’s calls to lower interest rates, dismissing these calls as merely the “preferences of the president”: “This is about whether the Fed will be able to continue to set interest rates based on evidence and economic conditions, or whether instead monetary policy will be directed by political pressure or intimidation.”

“I have served at the Federal Reserve under four administrations, Republicans and Democrats alike. In every case, I have carried out my duties without political fear or favor, focused solely on our mandate of price stability and maximum employment,” Powell said. “Public service sometimes requires standing firm in the face of threats. I will continue to do the job the Senate confirmed me to do, with integrity and a commitment to serving the American people.”
Powell said that the subpoenas were served last Friday.
During his testimony in June, Powell was asked about the cost of the renovations around the 36-minute mark of the hearing. He began by saying, “We do take seriously our responsibility as stewards of the public’s money,” but concluded, “The cost overruns are what they are.”
He also denied several of what he said were media inaccuracies, including reports of “special elevators,” new marble, “roof terrace gardens,” and “beehives.”
In a rare confrontation with Powell, President Trump, wearing a hard hat, visited the construction site in late July to challenge him on the “overruns.” Powell said he was “unaware” of the new numbers Trump presented to him.
Days before the July confrontation between Powell and Trump, Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.) sent a criminal referral for Powell to the Department of Justice.
On Sunday evening, Luna responded to the news of the grand jury subpoenas, repeating her allegations against Powell: “It’s good to see my criminal referral working in real time. You CANNOT lie to Congress. That is called PERJURY.”
No criminal charges have been brought against Powell at the time of writing.
The Department of Justice did not respond to a request for comment from Blaze News.

Defeated Democrat tries to revive her political career despite resounding rejection
Former Democratic Rep. Mary Peltola of Alaska is setting her sights on higher office after a failed 2024 re-election bid.
Peltola lost to Republican Rep. Nicholas Begich in 2024 despite having the advantage as the incumbent. In the aftermath of this political blunder, Peltola has now launched a senatorial campaign to challenge Republican Sen. Dan Sullivan of Alaska.
‘A defeated career politician turned lobbyist.’
Peltola has branded herself a moderate Democrat working against the D.C. establishment to fight for “fish, family, and freedom.” Peltola has also caught onto the political trend of the times, focusing her campaign message on affordability, housing, and grocery prices.
“D.C. people will be pissed that I’m focusing on their self-dealing and sharing what I’ve seen firsthand,” Peltola said in her launch video.

One thing her campaign video omitted was her far-left voting record during her brief stint in the House.
Peltola voted in lock-step with the Democrats against protecting women from transgender athletes in sports, even voting against an amendment to prevent taxpayers from funding sex-altering surgeries. Along with nearly every Democrat in the House, Peltola voted against the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, which would mandate medical care for babies who survive abortion.
Although her campaign claims to make cost of living a priority, Peltola reportedly “liked the concepts” of the Green New Deal, which would hike up energy prices and cost taxpayers trillions.

“Mary Peltola represents everything that is broken in Washington: a defeated career politician turned lobbyist who repeatedly voted against American energy independence, secure borders, and the Alaskan way of life,” Senate Leadership Fund Executive Director Alex Latcham said in a statement. “Democrats are desperately trying to revive a far-left politician, but Alaskans know why they fired Mary Peltola in the first place.”

4 violent robbery suspects arrested; but when jailer opens cell to check on 1 suspect, more violence — and an escape — ensues
Police in Sugar Land, Texas, said four males physically attacked a clerk at a CVS store in the 1400 block of Crabb River Road in the Greatwood area and made off with a bag of cash just before 2 a.m. Sunday. Sugar Land is just under 30 minutes southwest of Houston.
The clerk suffered minor injuries but required no hospital transport, police said, adding that four suspects in the aggravated robbery were soon located and taken into custody.
‘I hope they get the justice they deserve! Clearly they cannot be trusted to live in society!’
However, a police department jailer checked on one of the four prisoners later on Sunday — around 4:50 p.m. — and the jailer was assaulted when he opened the cell, police said.
With that, the suspect was able to release the other prisoners, and they all escaped, police said.
But the four suspects — 19-year-old Edmound Guillory, 18-year-old Devontae Simon, and 17-year-olds Desean Dillard and Clayton Johnson — were located around 6:20 p.m. and taken back into custody. KTRK-TV reported that they were found at the First Colony Church of Christ.
Police said their jailer was taken to a hospital and is in stable condition.
Police told KTRK that all four suspects will be transported to Fort Bend County Jail. Police said in addition to the initial charges of aggravated robbery, the suspects now face charges ranging from escape to attempted murder.
Commenters underneath the police department’s Facebook post about the jail escape weren’t thrilled with the suspects, to say the least:
- “Please put these idiots away,” one commenter wrote, adding that “we don’t need them on the street; that’s what’s wrong with things these days; [teenage] punks have no respect.”
- “Fathers please help your sons when they are young,” another user urged.
- “Oooh, that FAFO is about to come back on them,” another commenter remarked.
- “Thugs!” another user exclaimed before adding “prayers for the officer who was injured and for those who caught these incorrigibles.”
- “I hope they get the justice they deserve!” another commenter stated. “Clearly they cannot be trusted to live in society!”
