特朗普总统周四表示，在针对索马里移民群体的先前袭击事件之后，明尼苏达州居民应当“奋起反抗”。
President Trump said Thursday that Minnesotans should “fight back” against Somali immigrants following previous attacks against the group.
“曾经伟大的明尼苏达州正被索马里移民所控制。整个州都充斥着暴力、谋杀和混乱，”特朗普在Truth Social上写道，“明尼苏达州人民必须奋起反抗。”
“The once Great State of Minnesota is being taken over by Somali Immigrants. There is Violence, Murder, and Mayhem all over the State,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “The people of Minnesota must fight back.”
他还补充说，明尼苏达州的居民被州政府“抛弃了”，而明尼苏达州州长蒂姆·沃尔茨（民主党）则是一个“不想介入的无能窃贼”。
He added that Minnesota’s residents were “abandoned” by the state government, and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) was “an incompetent thief who doesn’t want to get involved.”
“[沃尔茨]只想尽可能多地偷窃后逃离这座城市，然后过一种安静的生活，”特朗普继续说道。“不能让索马里人逍遥法外。他们把你们视为软弱愚蠢的人。明尼苏达州，奋起反抗！如果需要，联邦政府会来拯救你们。”他最后总结道：“州长蒂姆·沃尔茨和明尼阿波利斯市长雅各布·弗雷必须立即请求联邦政府的帮助——剩下的事交给我们。”
“[Walz] just wants to get out of town with as much as he can steal, and then, lead a quiet life,” Trump continued. “The Somalians should not be allowed to get away with what they are doing. They view you as weak and stupid people. Fight back Minnesota, fight back! If you need, the Federal Government will come to your rescue.”“Governor Tim Walz, and Mayor of Minneapolis, Jacob Frey, must immediately ask for Federal help — and leave the rest to us,” he concluded.
由于在疫情期间发生了一起大规模欺诈案，索马里社区成为了特朗普政府的打击目标。该案件从联邦资助的营养计划中窃取了数亿美元。据报道，多起阴谋案共窃取了高达10亿美元的资金。
The Somali community has been targeted by the Trump administration due to a massive pandemic-era fraud scheme that stole hundreds of millions from a federally funded nutrition program. As much as $1 billion is reported to have been stolen in separate plots.
特朗普曾在2025年批评过索马里社区，称明尼苏达州众议员伊尔汗·奥马尔（民主党）是“垃圾”，并说索马里“臭气熏天”。
Trump previously slammed the Somali community in 2025, referring to Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar (D) as “garbage,” and that Somalia “stinks.”
特朗普政府于1月份终止了索马里籍人士临时保护身份（TPS）。当时，前国土安全部（DHS）部长克里斯蒂·诺姆表示，继续提供TPS保护“违背我们的国家利益”。2025年，沃尔茨指责特朗普“将明尼苏达州的索马里移民妖魔化”。
The Trump administration ended temporary protected status (TPS) for Somali holders in January. Former Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem said at the time that continuing TPS protections were “contrary to our national interests.”Walz accused Trump in 2025 of “demonizing” Somali migrants in Minnesota.
“至于将我们的索马里社区妖魔化这一点，或许他能在某些方面帮到我们，”瓦尔茨当时说道。“妖魔化整个社区是不对的——这些社区成员都是各行各业的精英，包括教育工作者、艺术家、医生、律师和企业家，他们为明尼苏达州这样的地方带来了多元性和活力。”根据世界人口评论的数据，明尼苏达州的索马里裔人口最多，占总人口的1.07%，主要集中在明尼阿波利斯-圣保罗地区。这些居民中的大多数是在20世纪90年代索马里内战期间作为难民来到美国的。
“As far as demonizing our Somali community, maybe, he could help us on some things,” Walz said at the time. “Demonizing an entire community, folks who are in the professions, educators, artists, doctors, lawyers, entrepreneurs, they bring the diversity and the energy to a place like Minnesota.”According to World Population Review, Minnesota has the largest population of Somalis at 1.07 percent concentrated primarily in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area. Most of the population arrived in the U.S. as refugees after a civil war in Somalia throughout the 1990s.
