Tim Walz Responds to Trump’s Thanksgiving Attack as Immigration Clash Intensifies
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz pushed back at former President Donald Trump after Trump used a slur to attack him and Rep. Ilhan Omar in a Thanksgiving Truth Social post criticizing Democratic immigration policies. Walz responded by calling for Trump to release his MRI results, referencing a recent medical visit. Trump’s posts blamed immigration for crime, housing issues, and social dysfunction, and accused Somali refugees of overwhelming Minnesota—claims not supported by federal data, which shows about 705 Somali nationals hold Temporary Protected Status. The exchange follows Trump’s move to revoke protections for Somali nationals and his proposals for sweeping immigration restrictions, including halting migration from “Third World countries” and deporting those he calls “non-compatible with Western Civilization.” The heated rhetoric comes amid national attention on a recent deadly shooting involving an Afghan refugee.
