Summary

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz Tim Walz warns that Trump may soon arrest political opponents and potentially groom one of his sons, likely Donald Jr., as a successor.

“It’s going to get very dark,” Walz told CNN, citing Trump’s defiance of a judge’s order on Venezuelan migrants and calls to impeach a federal judge as evidence of authoritarian tendencies.

He expressed concern that Democratic leaders underestimate Trump’s authoritarianism and public frustration with both parties.

Walz criticized Schumer’s handling of the GOP spending bill and questioned how Democrats will rebuild institutions damaged by Trump.

        From what I’ve heard, none of them have been confirmed to be gang members, and around half have been confirmed to not be gang members.
