About this episode
In the early hours of June 14, 2025, Minnesota was shaken by a series of coordinated, politically motivated shootings targeting elected officials. In this urgent and chilling episode, Jamie and John break down the timeline of events—starting with the attempted assassination of State Senator John Hoffman and the brutal double murder of former House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband.
The suspect? A man disguised as a police officer, armed, masked, and carrying a disturbing hit list with dozens of names, including prominent Democratic lawmakers and abortion rights advocates. With ties to fringe ideologies and a fabricated security background, Vance Luther Boelter’s story is one of delusion, radicalization, and deadly intent.
