In his Thanksgiving message, President Trump wrote that “hundreds of thousands of refugees from Somalia are completely taking over the once great State of Minnesota.”

Trump added that Somali gangs were “roving the streets” and seeking “prey,” while residents remained inside their homes.

“As an example, hundreds of thousands of refugees from Somalia are completely taking over the once great State of Minnesota. Somalian gangs are roving the streets looking for ‘prey’ as our wonderful people stay locked in their apartments and houses hoping against hope that they will be left alone,” Trump wrote.

Trump’s comments came shortly after two National Guard members were shot by an Afghan national in Washington, D.C. The victims were identified as Sarah Beckstrom and Andrew Wolfe.

Beckstrom died from her injuries, and Wolfe remains in critical condition.

Later in the day, Trump addressed questions about his recent medical evaluation. “I have no idea what they analyzed,” Trump said, adding that the outcome was “outstanding” and “as good a result as they’ve ever seen.”

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said the president underwent “advanced imaging” and “remains in exceptional physical health.”

A report published Tuesday by The New York Times challenged that assessment. The article referenced Trump’s schedule, stamina, shorter workdays, fewer public appearances, and recent instances in which he appeared to be sleeping during meetings.

In response to the report, Trump called The New York Times “an ‘ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE’” and referred to the reporter as “ugly.”

The exchange between Walz and the president marks the latest public clash amid ongoing debates over immigration, public safety concerns, and scrutiny of Trump’s medical evaluations.

Officials in Minnesota have not released additional statements following Walz’s brief post.
