Vance Luther Boelter tells Blaze News he did not want to see his affiliations used against President Trump.
Minnesota assassination suspect Vance Luther Boelter is a Republican who voted for Donald J. Trump in 2016, 2020, and 2024, he told Blaze News.

“I am a Trump supporter and voted for him in all 3 elections,” Boelter wrote to Blaze News from the Sherburne County Jail in Elk River, Minn., where he is being held awaiting federal trial. “I am a Republican.”

Boelter, 58, of Green Isle, Minn., is charged in state and federal courts with 14 counts for the brutal slayings of Minnesota House Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman (DFL-Brooklyn Park), her husband, Mark Hortman, and the family dog, Gilbert. He is also charged with the attempted murder of state Sen. John Hoffman (DFL-Champlin), his wife, Yvette Hoffman, and their adult daughter, Hope Hoffman.

‘I didn’t want the press to use that to try and make attacks on Trump.’

Not shocking, despite the attempts by some to portray him as a diehard lefty.

Well, well, well... next thing you know, MAGA will claim they know more about Boelter than Boelter does. Just like they do with so many others.

As suspected, just another in a LONG line of politically motivated murders by the right.
