    Published 8:45 am Saturday, June 21, 2025 Last weekend, a glory-seeking terrorist with delusions of grandeur killed a Minnesota politician and her husband, then shot another state legislator and wounded his wife, who used her body to protect young kids.

Here’s a story that will illustrate this point.
