Governor on refugees: "The inn is not full in Minnesota"

Minnesota state government will continue to consent to refugee resettlement, Gov. Tim Walz said Friday, in response to a recent presidential executive order that requires consent from states and counties.

“The inn is not full in Minnesota,” the Democratic governor said in a letter to Secretary of State Mike Pompeo just ahead of the Christmas holiday.

Walz also said he rejects the intent of the executive order and reserves the state’s right to challenge its requirements.

“Minnesota has a strong moral tradition of welcoming those who seek refuge,” he wrote. “Our state has always stepped forward to help those who are fleeing desperate situations and need a safe place to call home. In keeping with this proud history, I offer my consent to continue refugee resettlement in the State of Minnesota.”

How many nations and states do the “Refugees” travel through before they find a safe homeland?

The DemocRAT Governor is inviting rapists in to rape the daughters of his citizens. Do those citizens get a voice?

Joseph and Mary were in Bethlehem as citizens, not as refugees.

OK, great. Then we allow the immigration of native-born Swedes, Germans, Norwegians, Danes, Poles, Austrians, Swiss, and any and all other European national and ethnic groups who have been displaced by the tsunami of Muslim Third-Worlders. Gonna love us some diversity then, ain't we, Guv?

Trump lost Minnesota by 44k votes. Put those South African farmers there. Interview them first. 44k would have been zero if Gary Johnson had not gotten 144k. Will the Trumpster win over the Libertarians?

Santa Walz announced this crap right after finding out the state was running a 1.2+ billion budget surplus.

Free stuff for all invaders!

If the inn is not full at Minnesota, governor, your compadre Governor Newsome of California has a few thousands of homeless folks he would like to send your way. You can pick them up at the bus station.

I’m just a few miles from Minneapolistan. I can tell you many people are fed up with all the crime from the somalians. They are no longer limited to MiniMogadishu in Cedar/Riverside area. They have been sending cells to the western suburbs and the people here are sick of it. They are destroying the schools and anything else they touch.

President Trump has a real shot here next year.

No, and Walz has told Minnesotans who don’t like the Somali invasion to leave the state!

The citizens do have a voice, and they use that voice to loudly declare that they support the DFL and any and all stupid decisions that members of the DFL make on their behalf.

Western nations could take in immigrants from almost any country in the world 🌎 successfully. — but instead they insist on enabling a Muslim invasion that will only lead to the subjugation and destruction of the west. Traitors in government. Traitors. Traitors. Traitors

I know someone who’s full of something.
1) Mary and Joseph had to move because of taxes.
2) Mary was a virgin.
3) Mary, Joseph and Jesus fled to Egypt to avoid the government trying to kill Jesus. Somalis are given other people’s money and go overseas to kill infidels (MN #1 state for radicalization).

Yeah, and when one of them reverts back to his reptilian state and kills an innocent woman from Australia, you and the other democrats will rush to forgive him and defend him.

There is no room at the Minnesota inn for innocent Whites.

“The people of Minnesota have too much money and not enough crime, so we are going to take their money and create a new criminal class just for them.”

Wonder if Roger and Diane Peterson would agree with him?

We'll never know because they're dead, killed by a "refugee" who was described by US News and World Report as a "Minnesota Man".

The Petersons:

And of course the saintly "refugee" who drove over them:
