'former' appointee... guess there were reasons he is no longer working for Waltz

According to the NYP, a former appointee of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz is the suspected shooter in the assassination of a state lawmaker and the shooting of another.

Records show Boelter, 57, was appointed by Walz in 2019, and served on the Governor’s Workforce Development Board.

According to law enforcement sources familiar with the matter who spoke to ABC, "The list included dozens of other Democrats from Minnesota, including Gov. Walz, Rep. Ilhan Omar, Sen. Tina Smith and Attorney General Keith Ellison."

Police are still looking for the suspected shooter, who was identified by police sources to the New York Post as Vance Luther Boelter, a former appointee of Governor Tim Walz.

He was twice appointed to jobs by Democratic governors, serving on the Workforce Development Council in 2016 under then-Gov. Mark Dayton, and appointed by Walz in 2019 to serve a four-year stint on the Workforce Development Board, documents show.

Despite being a Dem aide, voting records show that he registered as a Republican.

Boelter is reportedly the CEO of Red Lion Group, based in the Democratic Republic of Congo, and Praetorian Guard Security Services, according to Minnesota Africans United’s website.

"I have been doing projects in the Democratic Republic of Congo in Central Africa for the last three years with the Red Lion Group," Boelter wrote on his LinkedIn page last month, noting that he is currently open to work.

Boelter reportedly earned his undergraduate degree in International Relations at St. Cloud University, and obtained a Masters of Science in Management and Doctorate in Leadership for the Advancement of Learning and Service from Cardinal Stritch University.

Congo has been accused by the United States of high visa overstays, though other countries absent from the list have higher overstay rates. Meanwhile, Trump has called out “the Congo”—which is commonly used to refer to the neighboring Democratic Republic of Congo, one of the world’s poorest, most conflict-affected nations—for allegedly releasing prisoners to the United States.

The United States granted 2,163 visas to travelers from Congo.

Must've been sooooooo hard for you to share these reports to the board without adding your requisite TDS or biased conspiracies you have against the RW. Amirite?

What a buffoon.

 

[butters]

his linkedin page shows he was a supervisor for Nestle/Gerber, an operations leader at Johnsonville Sausage, a production system manager for Del Monte, a general manager for Greencore, and a general manager for 7-eleven before becoming 'CEO of Red Lion Group' whatever that actually is. He tenure in a job averages around 4 years and he is currently looking for work. Well, currently hiding out but....

not seeing him mention working for Waltz or the other dem before him.

don't get me started on his Praetorian Guard company (the name!) though it's hard finding much about it other than there are others dotted all over the US so I'm guessing some franchise or other; as for the Minnesota Africans United thing, all I get is 'there is no website yet for this domain.

 

[ChloeTzang]

This guy was all over the map....supported illegal aliens entering America but also pro-life and his own security company, and appointed by Walz as well

Weirder and weirder. You couldn't make this shit up if you tried.

how much of this above matches up with what he's supposedly got on the Praetorian Guards thing? they look like 2 very different people—or one telling a shit load of porkies.

Boelter possesses an extensive security background, with experience in situations in Africa, North America, Eastern Europe and the Middle East – including the Gaza Strip – according to Praetorian Guard Security Services’ website. He has reportedly received security training by members of the U.S. Military and private firms.

https://www.foxnews.com/us/suspect-...lter?msockid=3c1b141eb0a56499139b1ad9b1986507

Dig deeper:

Boelter was appointed by Gov. Mark Dayton in 2016, then reappointed by Gov. Tim Walz in 2019 as a private sector representative to the governor's workforce development council, with the term expiring in 2023.

not mentioned on his linked in page despite the timeline ending as 'current'

Boelter has extensive experience in security operations. His current employment includes being the director of security patrols at Praetorian Guard Security Services, a security company based in the Twin Cities metro. The company provides a variety of armed home security services, including residential security patrols, uniformed armed security and event security services, according to their website.

The company website highlights that Boelter has experience with security situations in Eastern Europe, Africa, North America and the Middle East – including the Gaza Strip. He also worked at the largest U.S. oil refining company, the world’s largest food company headquartered in Switzerland, and the world’s largest convenience retailer based in Japan.

and none of the above locations are mentioned there, either...it was all about the 7-eleven, gerber/nestle, greencore etc... and all in the U.S

Watching the left jerk themselves off trying to pin a terrible situation on a political party is nothing new. So full of hate.

You'd be singing a different tune about the suspect if he was a liberal, Ken.

I totally agree. The left hoping it’s a righty and the right hoping it’s a lefty. An individual snapped and committed heinous crimes. Unfortunately with all the violent rhetoric being thrown around it doesn’t take much to push some of them over the edge.

Always fun to see the MAGA fucks racing to blame Democrats. Obviously they care about victims and families of victims

 

[Lazaran]

It gets weirder and weirder......

Only because Chloe “Chicongo” Tzang is focusing on that one vote and the fact that Governor Walz appointed some rando to an advisory group (advisory groups usually include persons of all political stripes).



If the POS was targeting abortion providers, there’s a good chance that the POS targeted the lawmakers for their votes on abortion.

Of course, that ^ doesn’t align with Chloe “Chicongo” Tzang’s racist, liberal hating narrative, so Chloe “Chicongo” Tzang must ignore it.





We. Told. Them. So.

[Politruk]

Boelter's motives are clear enough:

A list of other possible targets was retrieved from the suspect's vehicle, authorities said. The list named Hortman and Hoffman and included dozens of other Democrats from Minnesota, including Gov. Walz, U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar, U.S. Sen. Tina Smith and state Attorney General Keith Ellison, according to law enforcement sources familiar with the matter.

The shooter’s list of potential targets also included the names of abortion providers and pro-choice activists, several sources told ABC News. Many of the Democratic lawmakers on the list have been outspoken about pro-choice policy positions, two sources said.

Chloe is the only member here trying to gin up conspiracy theories on a political party.

Congrats! At least 2 people here now consider you part of the hateful left! Yay!
