Political Assassinations Have Begun
As national protests erupt alongside a Moscow-like military parade, a “politically motivated” murder changes the narrative
Last night, a gunman impersonating a police officer and wearing body armor, murdered Minnesota State Congresswoman Melissa Hortman and her husband, traveled to State Senator John Hoffman’s house and shot him and his wife. Both politicians are Democrats.
After the first shooting, MN State Police did a proactive check on Hoffman’s house and saw the suspect come out the front door and flee on foot.
Both Hortman and Hoffman are members of an extremely divided Minnesota Congress. By taking out a member of each house, the gunman effectively flipped the state from Blue to Red.
The suspect, Vance Luther Boelter, is the owner of a private security company in Minnesota called “Praetorian Guards” which he runs with his wife.


Boelter also describes himself as the CEO of “Red Lion Group,” a private security company in Democratic Republic of Congo, as well as associated with a number of hardcore fundamentalist Christian organizations.



However, the only known “Red Lion Group” operating in Congo is run by Horatiu Potra, a Romanian mercenary who runs a PMC in Congo, who was also in Erik Prince’s Whatsapp chats:
His hopes were shared by many other Off Leash participants, among them Horatiu Potra, a Romanian mercenary who has recently been operating in the mineral-rich, conflict-plagued Democratic Republic of Congo. “The globalists want to control the entire planet [and] the only chance to get rid of them is a spark from a great power (the USA),” Potra wrote. “Surely there will be a strong man like Erik who will initiate it, otherwise there is no chance of regaining our freedom. If this spark is started, all countries will follow suit.… We were waiting for the signal, the spark!!”
Potra is seen as the “Prigozhin” of Romania, but even more corrupt and incompetent. Below is a picture of Potra’s “Romeos” in Congo.
More recently, Potra was Romanian presidential candidate Calin Georgescu’s bodyguard. Georgescu was booted from the race after it was determined that he was a Russian asset using TikTok propaganda. Potra had a ticket to Moscow.


In the last several months, Elon Musk pressured the Congolese into allowing Starlink access, Donald Trump has repeatedly accused Congo of sending terrorists to the US, and Erik Prince won a contract to help the government “collect taxes” and “secure its mineral wealth.”
The gunman had nearly 70 targets on a list to murder including a number of abortion providers, and numerous other Democrats including Minnesota Governor Tim Walz.
Challenging the narrative of this event is the fact that in 2019 Tim Walz appointed Vance Luther Boelter to the bipartisan Minnesota Workforce Development Board, which Walz’s predecessor had also done in 2016. This perfunctory nomination by Walz is being spun by right-wing media into some sinister connection between the killer and Walz. Given that Walz was on a list to be murdered, it’s preposterous.
The killer also had a stack of shoddily made “No Kings” fliers in his car, which is also being twisted as “evidence” that he was actually on the side of the protesters—despite the fact that all of his targets were Democrats and abortion providers. Nevertheless, it’s being spun as some sort of left-wing assassination. It was not.


All of this is happening in the context of a very significant day symbolically. There are mass protests across the country. Here’s a compilation of just a few of the 2,000+ “No Kings” protests that are taking place. From the Villages to NYC to Salt Lake to LA. The sane world is standing up to what everyone sees now.
While millions of people are protesting, and a manhunt for an assassin of Democratic politicians goes on in Minnesota, Donald Trump is still putting on a $200 million birthday party for himself with our armed forces as decoration.
Moscow-style military parades and political assassinations of opposition lawmakers are the sort of thing that regularly happen in dictatorships and failed states. Same applies for arresting judges and lawmakers who stand up for the rule of law. And for the military occupation of opposition-run cities. It is time to face facts. America, as we knew her, has fallen.
However, like all great fighters, she will get back up. The founders of the Constitution had one rule, and it’s time to remind the world of it: No Kings. Not here. Not ever.
Long live a free America. Heroyam Slava.

Political murder is a feature of all countries where extremists are working to help a killer take over. I've been predicting it here for ten years since the main demagogue announced his intentions and his insects began crawling out from under their rocks. It was a feature in Europe in the 1930s and it not only helped the protagonists by removing troublesome resisters but it also traumatised the general public to the extent that they'd vote for anyone who promised the most persuasively to restore law & order. A facially deniable feature of the Putin regime too. It also normalizes political violence thus enabling the murdering side to blame similar false flag events on the other side. Stochastic is also the wrong, misleading term to describe political violence where freaks are manipulated by their side's disinfo propaganda to act on their own.
Erik Prince has been on the hazy part of the perimeter of radical right wing politics since he left the US Military. He, like Hegseth, claims his actions are informed by a strong Christian faith, and like Hegseth, the so-called faith is just a tool to give him entre, church cred, and justification for being in places where he doesn't belong and doing things outside the law. He should be surveiled at all times.
