Boelter went on to claim he had worked “off the books” for the U.S. military since his college years. He alleged involvement in covert projects in regions such as Eastern Europe, North America, the Middle East, and Africa.
But the letter took a stunning turn when Boelter pointed fingers directly at Democrat Governor Tim Walz, suggesting he was asked to carry out a political hit job.
“Recently I was approached about a project that Tim Walz wanted done, and __ ___ and ___ ___ was also aware of the project,” Boelter claimed. “Tim wanted me to kill Amy Klobuchar and Tina [Smith].”
According to Boelter’s bizarre tale, the motive was political ambition. He wrote that Walz wanted to become a U.S. Senator and didn’t believe Senator Tina Smith would voluntarily retire. Boelter claimed he refused the job and was subsequently threatened.
“I told Tim I wanted nothing to do with it and if he didn’t call off that plan I would go public. He said he would hurt my family if I didn’t play ball.”
Boelter then described a setup where he claimed Walz orchestrated a trap, but Boelter narrowly escaped. He claimed divine intervention helped him survive the encounter — and soon after, he launched the deadly rampage.
“So I went back a short time later and shot at both __ & __,” he admitted.
Chillingly, Boelter noted that he deliberately avoided harming law enforcement during the shooting:
“You should notice how I didn’t fire one round at any police officers and boy did I have plenty of opportunity.”
He closed the letter by daring authorities to investigate his connection to Walz, alleging that he once served on the Governor’s Workforce Board — a claim that, if true, would be a damning link.
“If he says he doesn’t know me or never met me, look in the files and you will see that Tim Walz personally approved me to be on his Governor’s workforce Board… It’s public record.”
In his final plea, Boelter insisted he acted alone and demanded protection for his family:
“I am willing to spill all the beans. I just want my family safe. They had nothing to do with [it?] and are totally innocent. This was a one person [op?].”
The media coverage following the tragedy, however, took a different path. Even before the facts had been gathered or victims identified, many on social media and in left-wing circles pointed fingers at conservatives, MAGA supporters, and even Christians — since Boelter had once been a preacher.
But the truth is far more unsettling and complicated. While Boelter’s manifesto reads like the paranoid scribblings of a disturbed man, the fact remains: he was capable of carrying out calculated violence while maintaining the illusion of legitimacy.
This was not a politically motivated MAGA attack, nor was it triggered by “right-wing extremism” as many headlines suggested. It was the act of a deeply disturbed individual, one who may have genuinely believed the delusions he wrote down.
The real issue here is not partisan politics — it’s the growing and dangerously ignored mental health crisis plaguing this nation. Until we stop using every tragedy as a political cudgel, we’ll continue to miss the warning signs right in front of us.
Instead of smearing half the country based on wild assumptions, it’s time the media and political leaders look hard at what’s truly broken — and start fixing it.
