Whoa. If I understand his words correctly, Gov Tim Walz has issued a 'warning order' which is like a 'prepare for but don't execute yet' order for the National Guard to be prepared to kick ICE agents out of Minnesota if necessary.
um. wow.

In response to the governor’s warning order, Schaefer said the agency has begun preparations in the event the guard is activated, including equipment checks and notifying service members.
“To Minnesotans, on the National Guard, they’re there to protect you and protect your constitutional rights,” Walz said. “These are our neighbors. They don’t wear masks. They don’t bust in from somewhere else. They’re not here to cause hassles to you or what we saw today, the tragedy.”
“From here on, I have a very simple message: We do not need any further help from the federal government,” Walz said. “To Donald Trump and [Homeland Security Secretary] Kristi Noem, you’ve done enough.”
