FBI Offers $50,000 Reward for Information on Minnesota Assassination Suspect

The FBI has issued a $50,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of Vance Luther Boelter, a 57-year-old suspect accused of orchestrating the targeted assassination of Minnesota House Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark.

The brazen attack, which also left State Senator John Hoffman and his wife injured in a separate shooting in Champlin, has sent shockwaves through the state and nation, with authorities labeling it a “politically motivated” act of terror.

Boelter was appointed by Walz in 2019 to serve on the Governor’s Workforce Development Board, and leads an international security firm.

According to the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA), at approximately 2 a.m. on Saturday, Boelter, allegedly impersonating a police officer and equipped with an armored vest and Taser, struck the Hoffman residence in Champlin. Just over an hour later, at 3:35 a.m., he targeted the Hortman home in nearby Brooklyn Park, where a vehicle resembling a police squad car with flashing lights was spotted in the driveway.

Brooklyn Park police, proactively checking on Hortman due to her proximity to Hoffman, encountered the suspect, who opened fire before fleeing on foot. Officers returned fire, but Boelter escaped, leaving behind a manifesto and a list of other legislators and officials, according to law enforcement sources.

“No Kings” flyers were also found inside of his vehicle.

The FBI’s Minneapolis Field Office, alongside the BCA, Brooklyn Park Police, and Champlin Police, has launched a massive manhunt for Boelter, who is considered armed and dangerous.

Drew Evans, superintendent of the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, said Boelter is 6’1’’ and weighs around 220 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes. He appeared to be wearing a latex mask during the shooting rampage. He was last seen wearing a “light colored” cowboy hat and a “dark colored” long-sleeved collared shirt.

“We still don’t know if additional people are involved, but this individual is the one that we’re looking as a person of interest right now, but there may be other people with him, and we would like to speak to anybody that may have had contact with him at any point in time,” Evans told reporters during a press briefing.

The FBI is urging the public to come forward with any information about Boelter’s whereabouts, offering a toll-free tipline at 1-800-CALL-FBI (225-5324) or the BCA tip line at 877-996-6222. Tips can also be submitted online at tips.fbi.gov or via email at bca.tips@state.mn.us.

“The public is asked to call 911 immediately if they see Boelter. Do not approach him,” the FBI warned.

Former AOC Campaign Organizer Arrested Over Terror Threats Against Jewish High School

A former campaign organizer for Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has been charged over alleged terror threats she made against a Jewish high school.

Iman Abdul, who previously worked as a youth organizer for AOC, was arrested on Friday for allegedly urging her 25,000 social media followers to “attack” the Leon M. Goldstein High School for the Sciences in Manhattan Beach.

“If anyone needs a public school in NYC to attack for whatever reason … Lexus driving Israhell (sic) loving Zionisits (sic) all attend here,” she wrote in a social media post, which has since been deleted.

“They’ve all gone on ‘Birthright,’” she added added, referencing a program that provides free 10-day trips to Israel for young Jews.

The post in question showed the location of the school on Google Maps so that her followers could locate it.

According to The New York Post, officers from the New York Police Department (NYPD) took Abdul into custody at her Brooklyn residence on Friday.

She was later charged with making her making terror threats, aggravated harassment, threatening mass harm, and endangering the welfare of children

In the summer of 2018, she was involved in the Democratic primary campaigns of progressive figures Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and state Senator Julia Salazar, even serving as a paid canvasser for Salazar.

Abdul’s post was first flagged by the online campaign group StopAntisemitsm, who said she should be “prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”

She later messaged the group directly, where she denied having made physical threats of violence.

“I never called for an attack on the school in the sense of mass organization or not even individual people attacking individuals, that’s literally stupid,” she wrote.

“I called for an attack on the school, the Zionist institution funded by our public dollars … we have every right to verbally attack the school.”

She has since deleted all her social media accounts and is expected in court at a later date.

Jimmy Kimmel Blames ‘Repulsive’ Liberal Activists For Trump’s Return to Power (VIDEO)

Late-night comedian Jimmy Kimmel has blamed “repulsive” liberal activists for enabling President Donald Trump’s return to power.

During an appearance on the Sarah Silverman Podcast on Thursday, Kimmel said without a shred of irony that “loud voices” had scared people away from the Democratic Party.

“I’s not the party. It’s not the majority,” Kimmel insisted. “ It’s the loud voices that scare people from saying what they believe and make you think twice about a joke or whatever.”

“You know, a lot of their points are valid, but a lot of them are also just repulsive, in that they repel people,” he continued.

“They go like, ‘Oh, you’re no fun. I don’t want to be around you.’ And I think that if you had to boil it down to one thing, that’s kind of what it is.”

It is not the first time that Kimmel, who is himself a committed left-wing activist, has accused humorless liberals of costing the Democrats the 2024 election.

“I think a lot of the outrage is completely manufactured, and it’s like, a lot of these people who are angry aren’t really angry,” Kimmel said back in April.

”I think these liberals who’ve done such a good job of viciously attacking comedians are a big part of the reason why Trump is the president right now.”

So Close, Yet So Far: Jimmy Kimmel Actually Nails 1 Reason Trump’s Winning

Following Trump’s victory last November, Kimmel choked up on air as he moaned about the “hard-working immigrants” who might be deported under the administration.

Last month, Kimmel had a social media meltdown after his fellow late-night comedian Stephen Colbert was canned by CBS.

“Love you, Stephen. Fuck you and all your Sheldons CBS,” he wrote at the time.

President Trump, meanwhile, warned that Kimmel may well be next on the chopping block.

“I absolutely love that Colbert got fired,” Trump wrote after hearing the news of Colbert’s firing. “His talent was even less than his ratings.”

“I hear Jimmy Kimmel is next. Has even less talent than Colbert!” he continued.

UK’s Lammy and US Vice-President Vance will host the European and Ukrainian ‘allies’ for a meeting today.

As we have reported previously, Vice President JD Vance’s holiday in the UK is actually filled with relevant work pushing President Donald J. Trump’s foreign policy.

Today, a meeting of National Security Advisers from the US, UK, as well as European ‘allies’ and Ukrainians, is being held, hosted by Foreign Secretary David Lammy and Vance.

The meeting is taking place at Chevening, Secretary Lammy’s ‘official country residence’ in Kent where Vance is staying during his days in the UK.

Daily Mail reported:

“The aim of the meeting is to bring together advisors from the US, Europe and Ukraine – it is understood to have been requested by the US.

A Downing Street spokesperson said that Keir Starmer and Volodymyr Zelensky agreed the meeting would be a ‘vital forum to discuss progress towards securing a just and lasting peace’.

‘Both leaders welcomed President Trump’s desire to bring this barbaric war to an end and agreed that we must keep up the pressure on Putin to end his illegal war,’ the spokesperson added.”

This meeting follows the news that Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin will hold a peace summit in Alaska on August 15.

“’The highly anticipated meeting between myself, as President of the United States of America, and President Vladimir Putin, of Russia, will take place next Friday, August 15, 2025, in the Great State of Alaska,’ Trump wrote. ‘Further details to follow. Thank you for your attention to this matter!’”

This stay by Vance highlights that Foreign Secretary Lammy has somehow managed to become closer to the Trump administration, having previously called the president a ‘Neo-Nazi sympathizing sociopath’.
