"Hi Brad. I am sending you a post on socials regarding the trump walz conversation, this has been approved by staff. Will be using the picture attached and caption for all three platforms. Caption: Thank you, President Trump and Governor Walz. I am pleased to see these recent developments. The only way to a resolution is through productive conversations. Public safety shouldn't be partisan, and cooperation is how we deliver real results for our communities. Real leadership means putting law and order above politics."
"Imagine being a congressman from Minnesota and caring so little about what's happening here that you just copy and paste talking points,"
"If you're not writing your own statements and you're not holding town halls, what exactly are we paying you for?"
Rep. Brad Finstad accidentally pasted a staffer’s message above a social media statement thanking President Trump and Governor Tim Walz for de-escalating ICE-related tensions in Minneapolis. The pasted text indicated the message was approved by staff and included instructions for using an attached picture and caption across platforms. Social media users criticized the mistake as evidence that Finstad did not write his own statements and questioned his engagement with local carnage. Opponent Jake Johnson condemned the apparent reliance on talking points and absence of town halls. Observers also speculated whether the referenced "staff" included White House personnel.
