Gov. Tim Walz was a no-show Monday at a Memorial Day ceremony at Fort Snelling National Cemetery where he had been listed as a speaker, multiple people with direct knowledge first confirmed to Alpha News Monday night.

Meanwhile, footage showed Walz participating in events at George Floyd Square, including dancing during commemorations marking the sixth anniversary of Floyd’s death.

U.S. Rep. Tom Emmer, R-Minn., blasted the governor, writing on X: “Prancing and dancing at a George Floyd event on Memorial Day is a disgrace to our fallen heroes. This is shameful, [Tim Walz].”

Walz also posted about Memorial Day, calling on Minnesotans to “come together to remember the heroes who gave their lives for the freedoms and values that define our great nation.”

Separately, Walz, Klobuchar and Attorney General Keith Ellison Ellison attended a Memorial Day program at the Minnesota Veterans Home in Minneapolis, according to a tip and photos of the event received by Alpha News.

🚨 NEW: Congressman Brad Finstad is leading RSC Members in launching a major crackdown on Medicaid fraud after the DOJ charged 15 individuals in a massive scheme that stole more than $90 MILLION from taxpayers.

It’s time for Congress to ramp up oversight, enforcement, and accountability across Medicare, Medicaid, and every federal healthcare program. Fraudsters stealing from vulnerable Americans and hardworking taxpayers must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

Hey Governor Tim Walz, Lt. Governor Peggy Flanagan, Senator Nick Frentz, Representative Luke Frederick - one of the biggest fraud bust in Minnesota history took place this week and you guys said nothing

Shouldn’t you guys celebrate when fraud is exposed in our state and district?

Or are you upset because it was exposed? Silence speaks volumes.

It's time for new leadership in Minnesota.

Good to know...

The Blue Earth County Sheriff’s Office has partnered with Regroup to launch a new emergency mass notification system designed to keep the community informed during critical events.

The Regroup platform can deliver important messages through phone calls, text messages, and emails and includes social media and American Sign Language integration.

From customizable weather warnings to emergency and community alerts, the system provides real-time notifications that help safeguard families, businesses, and residents.

“We’re committed to keeping our community safe and informed,” said Sheriff Jeff Wersal. “This emergency notification system is another tool we can use to share critical information with the community, so everyone can take the right steps to protect themselves and their loved ones.”

On Wednesday, May 20th at 1:00 pm the Sheriff’s Office will send a test alert to our current Regroup database. Any/all messages from the Regroup notification system will come from the number 58339. Although we encourage everyone to remain subscribed, those wishing to opt out of the system can simply reply “STOP ALL” to the text message when they receive it.

The Blue Earth County Sheriff’s Office encourages residents to register today to stay prepared and connected. Learn more about the notification system and enroll at https://www.blueearthcountymn.gov/1693/Regroup-Notification-System.

Additional assistance is available by calling (507) 304-4920 or through email at [email protected].

Your safety is our priority and together we can build a more resilient and informed community.
