In Minneapolis, "Operation Metro Surge" has drawn broad condemnation for excessive force used by federal agents, who fatally shot two protesters in January, and spurred calls across the aisle for more accountability and funding restrictions for the Department of Homeland Security."
"The Sonoma County Republican Party, which was not available for comment in time for the publication, criticized the protest movement that arose after last month's shootings. In its January newsletter, the party echoed conspiracy theories saying that the protesters in Minneapolis are funded by George Soros, and wrote: "It appears that the people fomenting the riots in Minnesota are not interested in the safety of the community.

Investigators are examining a letter for forensic evidence, including trace DNA potentially left on the envelope or paper. In Minneapolis, Operation Metro Surge has drawn broad condemnation for alleged excessive force by federal agents, who fatally shot two protesters in January. Those shootings spurred bipartisan calls for greater accountability and for funding restrictions on the Department of Homeland Security. The Sonoma County Republican Party criticized the protest movement that followed the shootings and repeated conspiracy claims that protesters were funded by George Soros. The party's newsletter stated that those fomenting riots are unconcerned with community safety and asserted that destroying legal government processes is the goal because that is how governments are brought down.
