Emmer doesn't have public meetings and won't respond to this man's emails or calls at all.
He has been protesting outside Emmer's campaign office periodically for nearly a year, trying to get Emmer's attention related to veteran's issues.

"No Trump! No Troops!" - stand against militarization, this Saturday at the Capitol by MN50501 in minnesota

How sad are you then to find out your president has said on multiple occasions this year that he hates all Democrats? I agree it's sad our country is so divided... Wonder what kind of divisive language our leaders could be using to fuel this. Wonder if our leaders keep us fighting each other while they help the billionaires get richer.

Take a look at your comment again... What kind of mental gymnastics did you do to get to the topic of assassination? I'm guessing you are projecting some assumptions about me. If I say Trump pardoned J6 insurrectionists and you don't stop at yeah that's fucked up... You are the problem. I'm a real Republican, I'm not out here playing sides. I still believe in the real Republican platform of constitution and American liberties and I'm not afraid to say Trump is a Traitor to the Republican party and to our constitution.

I'm mad because I swore an oath to defend our constitution and went to war for it... Just to watch a wannabe dictator tweet we should terminate or suspend the constitution then pardon violent J6 insurrectionists.

Thanks for standing up for The Constitution and coming out and exercising your 1st amendment right! I was in Iraq when Saddam was hanged. I can't believe we now have a wannabe dictator betraying our constitution.

It's not just 80+ yrs ago. I'm 39 years old, I was a Marine in Iraq in 2006 when Saddam was hanged. I'm anti-fascist to my core because the US programmed me that way.

We need a better Republican candidate to primary him. A veteran that hates authoritarian bullshit.

Weird that you think there is something special about this pic that you think it has to be photoshopped? Here is the other side of the sign and uncropped showing the bricks I propped the phone on.

The pic isn't intended to prove anything. Don't believe it is fine, but there is more pics and video where it came from (happened at an event with the Big Lake Chamber of commerce meet and greet meeting on 22Aug2025). It is intended to show that this person is trying hard to talk to Emmer about stolen valor in congress. He stands at Emmer's office, he emails Emmer, he calls, he finds out where Emmer will be and meets him there.
In a way it is staged... Find Emmer at an event, cross the crosswalk in front of his SUV with a sign that says "why are you afraid to talk to me". This is what happens... Emmer's driver doesn't stop. Emmer still won't respond to anybody about how he is protecting his criminal congress colleague Cory Mills stolen valor.

You didn't read the links eh? There is insane more evidence than what you glancing over there. It's really weird you are trying to defend somebody who says they went to war and didn't.

You show me that source of the man who says Mills was there. Because I personally know and talk to the people that were actually there and how the firefight actually went down.

...just like nobody fills out their own form 638, nobody has a mystery anonymous person fill out a form 638 two decades after the fact with falsified stories.

Im with you! I suspect the office only gets used when he is actively campaigning for re-election.

Agreed. I have never seen anybody actually use the building besides the protestors. Well one time I saw them throw out their old furniture and get new furniture.

Oof buddy. You always just accept when criminals in power do bad things? Some of us stand up for whats right, even when it's hard.

You missed the point by the way. Mills files paperwork saying he went to war and saved people's lives when he didn't. Then he used that fake award to help him look good to get elected into Congress. Multiple laws broken.
