Former Minnesota Vikings Star Blames Tim Walz’s Lack of Masculinity For Lawmaker Shootings

A former Minnesota Vikings football player has laid the blame for the tragic shooting of two Democratic state lawmakers at the feet of the state’s governor, and former Democratic vice presidential candidate, Tim Walz.

Jack Brewer, who also played for the University of Minnesota, said there is a lack of leadership and masculinity in the governor’s mansion, Fox News reported.

“We need to start calling this what it is. These people have lost their minds. I am heartbroken to see one of the most amazing states in America completely turned around under Gov. Tim Walz. Minnesota is confused,” he said in an interview with Fox News Digital after the tragedy.

“I played for the Vikings. I played for the Gophers. I lived in Minnesota for years. It was not like this. People were respectful. People could disagree and still have conversations. I still have a lot of family there, and it hurts to see what they’re living through,” the former NFL star said.

“Minnesota has become the capital of chaos in America. That’s not right. It’s not a reflection of the true people of Minnesota. There are a lot of good people there. But the liberal hub around Minneapolis and St. Paul has taken over, and it’s dangerous. Tim Walz is the leader of that. His attorney general, Keith Ellison, is right there with him,” he said.

“On this Father’s Day, I wish Minnesota would focus on restoring fatherhood — protecting women, protecting families. Tim Walz is the example of a weak, emasculated leader. That is not what God made fathers to be. It’s pathetic,” he said.

“It’s terrible. The root cause of all of this is evil. When you’re willing to attack, ridicule, riot and protest anyone who believes something different — even in your own party — you’ve gone too far. The Democrats have gone so far left that if you’re not a raging liberal, you’re under attack. They are forcing everyone in the party to conform,” the former Viking said.

“Whenever you give Satan power, he shows his face. That’s what we’re witnessing now,” he said.
