We are entering week three of unrest here, and the clashes between law enforcement and protesters are showing no signs of slowing down.

Governor Tim Walz also mobilized the Minnesota National Guard yesterday.
The Guard staged to support local law enforcement if needed.

But the Democratic mayor of Minneapolis, Jacob Fry, disagrees and is slamming Secretary Noem.
