During a press conference on Saturday morning, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz (D-MN) said that the initial protests in Minneapolis over the death of George Floyd have devolved as a group of outsiders have seized on the situation in an “organized attempt to destabilize civil society.”
While Walz said the protests earlier in the week were largely peaceful, the situation on Friday evening was a “mockery of pretending” it was still about Floyd, with the governor noting that the subsequent riots contained elements of domestic terrorism, ideological extremism, and “international destabilization of how our country works.”
