Questions and misinformation have spread on social media and other platforms about the political views of the man suspected of assassinating Minnesota House DFL leader Melissa Hortman, and any connections that alleged gunman had to Gov.

Boelter, a 57-year-old former appointee by Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, was sought by police for allegedly shooting Sen. John Hoffman and his wife Yvette and fatally shooting former Democratic House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband.

Walz condemned inflammatory rhetoric and suggested it was linked to political violence. However, he has a history of making incendiary comments himself.

Vance Boelter, the suspect in the assassination and attempted assassination of two Minnesota lawmakers, has been captured, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz confirmed in a news conference late Sunday.

The wife of Vance Boelter, the suspect in the Minnesota lawmaker shootings, was arrested after officials pulled over her vehicle in Onamia.

Several Make America Great Again (MAGA) figures, such as Laura Loomer, are criticizing Democratic Minnesota Governor Tim Walz over his ties to the suspect in Saturday's deadly shooting.Vance Boelter,
