White supremacists and drug cartels are playing off the George Floyd killing to create more havoc on the streets of Minneapolis, Minnesota's governor said Saturday.
Gov. Tim Walz confirmed he had received reports of hordes of white supremacists who joined in the looting of businesses, NBC News reported.
During a pre-dawn press conference, Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey laid out plans for quelling the violence that has rocked the city since Floyd's died Monday. A white police officer who was arresting Floyd and kneeling on the black man's neck, has been charged in his death.
On the marauding white supremacists, Walz told reporters: "my suspicions and what I've seen on this, yes."
"It gets worse than that," Walz said of the marauding racists. "The cartels, who are wondering if there was a break in their drug transmissions, are trying to take advantage of the chaos. That's why this situation is on a federal level."
Walz added he is working with the federal government to gather intelligence on who is taking part in the violence and whether they belong to organized groups.

Stranger things have happened. The Minn. Atty General says they have some evidence that white supremacists are involved in the "rioting" . We will see.
"White supremacists and drug cartels"
And I'll bet the "Russian Mafia" has a hand in it too !
I'll take "Simpleton Idiots are involved" for 10 bazillion Alex !
That shot his …. "SEEN" …… all to shit !
The "Before" Mind set .....does really "Stupid" things to ones "Brain" !
No doubt they are.
That’s how those pussies in antifa roll.
I would say send in the FBI but then the traitor Bill Barr would get involved.
They could always bring agents like Sztrok and Page back so you could get more of the lies you like to hear.
Doesn't look like it !
He might be called a "Racist" if he did actually ….. Handle It !
Wouldn't be good for "Re-Election" purposes !
Gotta save that "Political JOB". Even during Covid-19, you lose NOTHING in that type job.
Barr has the authority to stick his nose in FBI business if he wanted to. The DOJ is up the chain of command for the FBI.
It's still early.
White nationalist and white supremacist groups posting on FB to "go to Minneapolis and get your loot on" called out by MN governor and
as terrorists. Using community protests as cover to incite violence and cause harm to black people. Also happened in Ferguson MO.
