Democrats slander President Trump for deploying troops to arrest violent criminals yet are not afraid to use soldiers to enforce their unconstitutional fascist edicts on Americans.

During the COVID-19 pandemic in May 2020, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz deployed the National Guard and Minneapolis Police Department to enforce lockdown measures, including curfews that restricted residents from leaving their homes. Reports indicate that the National Guard used paintball rounds to ensure compliance with stay-at-home orders. These actions occurred amid the broader context of the pandemic and the Black Lives Matter protests. Critics have described the enforcement as heavy-handed and unconstitutional, particularly when applied to individuals on private property who were not violating curfews. The use of such measures in Minnesota has drawn ongoing attention and debate regarding government authority and civil liberties during emergency situations.
