**Unforgivable Command Decisions: Walz’s Dismissal of National Guard Troops During Minneapolis Riots**
In a glaring display of mismanagement, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz's refusal to deploy the National Guard during the chaos of the George Floyd riots has recently faced renewed scrutiny.
Remember the Summer of 2020 when Minneapolis descended into lawlessness?
As riots raged, Mayor Jacob Frey urgently requested assistance from Governor Walz to restore order.
Instead of acting decisively, Walz callously dismissed the National Guard with an astonishing characterization of troops as merely “19-year-old cooks.”
His comments appear to deride the very men and women who stepped forward when their community needed them most.
Critics argue that Walz's attitude not only belittles the capabilities of the Guardsmen but also highlights his glaring failure as a commander in chief.
The timeline tells a disconcerting story: after the mayor's urgent request for troops, the first Guardsmen did not arrive until early Friday morning, far too late to prevent the devastation that had already occurred.
By this time, the Minneapolis Third Precinct had been overrun, and the city was in the clutches of chaos.
Military personnel are trained for a variety of roles, and it’s evident that dismissive attitudes towards their abilities can have dangerous repercussions.
As Governor, Walz should have been equipped with the knowledge that leaders must trust their troops to perform missions effectively—even unexpected ones.
A former National Guardsman himself, Walz's dismissive rhetoric reflects poorly on his judgment and leadership.
When asked to deploy forces needed to maintain peace and safety, he failed the very mission he swore to uphold.
This incident raises red flags about the competency of leadership when prioritizing political correctness over public safety.
Instead of deploying troops who could have assisted law enforcement, Walz's indecision resulted in a city in turmoil and a police department left to fend for themselves.
In contrast, Republicans often emphasize the importance of law and order, arguing that leaders should act swiftly in the face of civil unrest.
What would have happened had Walz trusted his Guardsmen to handle the situation?
In leadership, trusting and empowering your team is paramount—something that Governor Walz seems to have forgotten in a critical time of need.
As further investigations into these decisions continue, the citizens of Minneapolis deserve answers.
Will they receive accountability for the choices made in a time of emergency?
The evidence suggests a need for better leadership that prioritizes citizen safety over disparaging those willing to serve.
This troubling example may serve as a call to action for Republicans to champion law and order and ensure the safety of all citizens in the future.
