A former NFL star is blaming Minnesota Governor Tim Walz for allowing chaos to reign in his state ... just after two local lawmakers were shot.

Jack Brewer -- a four-year player in the league who played two seasons with the Minnesota Vikings -- spoke to Fox News Digital about the current state of Minnesota ... and, he called it the "Capital of Chaos in America."

Brewer says it breaks his heart to see the demise of one of the nation's great states, adding he lived there a long time between going to school at the University of Minnesota and playing for the Vikings ... and, he says it wasn't always this dangerous.

Thousands, including celebrities, took to the streets across the country over the weekend for "No Kings" protests, a growing movement aimed at challenging President Donald Trump's administration’s immigration policies.

In Los Angeles on Saturday, Jimmy Kimmel joined the rally with his parents, sharing a photo on Instagram and praising the "inspiring and peaceful" turnout. "I met many people who still believe this country can be a force for good. Most of all, I’m grateful for my parents, who taught me to care about others."

Kerry Washington also posted, captioning her photos with: "#NoKings, just some QUEENS… fighting for democracy."

Donald Trump's massive military parade -- conveniently placed on his birthday -- took place in Washington, D.C. ... with many watching the action and cheering on.

More than 6,000 troops marched near the National Mall in honor of the Army's 250th anniversary Saturday ... with tanks and other massive military equipment taking part as well.

Among the highlights of the event ... President Trump swore in a group of new enlistees and current members reenlisting to the Army.

The FBI is offering a hefty reward for any information that might help them catch Vance Boelter ... a suspect in the shootings of two Democratic lawmakers.

The law enforcement agency announced a $50K incentive for anyone that could help lead them "to the arrest and conviction of Vance L. Boelter."

While they're looking for information to help them capture Boelter, the FBI is clear ... citizens should call 911 immediately and shouldn't attempt to approach him.

Vance Boelter -- the man authorities say is a person of interest in the fatal shooting of a Minnesota politician -- has training from military personnel and experience with security situations in foreign countries.

A profile for Boelter on the Praetorian Guard Security Services website lists him as the Director of Security Patrols ... and, it describes his various experiences in the security field.

According to the site, Boelter has "been involved with security situations in Eastern Europe, Africa, North America and the Middle East, including the West Bank, Southern Lebanon and the Gaza Strip."

The dispatch audio from just after the shooting of Democratic lawmakers Melissa Hortman and John Hoffman has been released.

TMZ has obtained the audio from minutes after Hortman -- the former Speaker of the Minnesota House of Representatives -- and Hoffman were shot ... and, in the case of Hoffman, first responders detail the extent of his and his wife injuries.

Listen to the audio for yourself ... Hoffman's wife was shot twice in the abdomen and once in the arm, paramedics say.

12:14 AM PT -- Gov. Tim Walz and U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar were also reportedly on the target list.

10:55 AM PT -- The hit list found in the Minnesota suspect’s car contained nearly 70 names. A law enforcement official told CNN the names included abortion providers, pro-abortion rights advocates and lawmakers in Minnesota and other states.

The official added law enforcement also found a Father's Day card addressed to the suspect in a bag full of ammunition.

The suspect on the run for the shooting death of Minnesota's Democrat State Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband reportedly wanted to slaughter even more lawmakers.

The gunman's manifesto was found in the SUV he drove to the Hortman residence before their murders, according to NewsNation's Brian Entin -- and the suspect had written down "names of many lawmakers and other officials."

Police also found flyers for planned "No Kings" demonstrations across Minnesota in the suspect's car ... and are now urging the public to avoid such gatherings "out of an abundance of caution."

Caitlyn Jenner is safe in Tel Aviv after traveling there for a huge Pride parade, according to event organizers in the city ... though missiles are still raining down on the city.

The reality star and former Olympian shared a picture Friday afternoon capturing the streaks of missiles in the night sky ... with smoke rising up from the city and flashes of light ballooning across the horizon.

She captioned the post, "A ‘quiet’ night in Tel Aviv. There is not a place I’d rather be, than with the brave people of Israel. God, please continue to shield and protect us."

Jeremy Fall isn't falling for President Donald Trump's game ... 'cause he says the only reason 47's having a military parade this weekend is to instill fear into Americans.

We caught up with the chef and restaurateur Friday, and he blasted the administration regarding Saturday's parade in Washington, D.C. to celebrate the Army’s 250th anniversary ... and happens to land on Trump's 79th birthday.

JF said it plain and simple ... "The military is not his personal puppet show that he can just throw out whenever he wants when people disagree with him."

Two people have been arrested for their alleged actions seen in a viral body-slam video from L.A.'s ongoing ICE protests this week ... TMZ has learned.

In the clip, two men are screaming at the riot-gear-clad deputies and getting in their faces -- before one reaches back and hurls a projectile at the deputy, hitting him in the side. He's hit with tear gas, and then demolished by a bystander, who tackles him and drives him hard into the concrete.

A rep for the L.A. County Sheriff's Office tells TMZ ... Javier Gonzalez and Bryan Mugarte were arrested following the viral incident where Gonzalez allegedly threw a 22-oz. canteen at a deputy.

Kevin O’Leary's weighing in on the Trump vs. Elon feud -- and he’s not holding back. Mr. Wonderful’s dropping truth bombs, no filter, no fluff.

TMZ caught Kevin mid-shade -- literally -- tossing on his sunglasses before diving into the Trump vs. Elon tiff -- explaining how the richest man on Earth and the most powerful one need to kiss, make up, and get over it ... 'cause like it or not, America needs 'em both.

Kevin dubs Elon the king of A.I., robotics, and all things space -- exactly the kind of genius Trump needs if he wants to keep the U.S. ahead of China. So this whole feud? Childish.

U.S. Senator Alex Padilla was detained and handcuffed by law enforcement after interrupting DHS Secretary Kristi Noem at a press briefing regarding the ongoing Los Angeles riots -- and there's dramatic video of the incident.

Check out the clip ... the California Democrat shouts he has questions for Noem, while trying to make a point about a "half a dozen violent criminals" as he's being forcefully pushed from the room by several men.

He's delivered to two FBI officers who were assisting the Secret Service -- who were protecting Noem, law enforcement sources tell TMZ. Padilla appears to resist when asked to put his hands behind his back -- prompting officers to force him nearly face-down to the ground while they handcuff him.

Reality TV stars, singers and actors aren't the only public figures who know showin' more skin grabs the win ... Can you guess which political player donned this red-hot silk dress?

She's not quite royalty, but she is a powerful partner ... back in 2000, this First Lady posed nude on her (then future) husband's plane for a magazine cover, and she was also a Sports Illustrated model.

12:48 PM PT -- The Craigslist post has been officially debunked as fake -- Fight Fight Fight LLC via GetTrumpMemes telling TMZ ... they know nothing about it.

An ad posted to Craigslist calling for seat-fillers for the U.S. Army's 250th anniversary parade this weekend -- AKA President Trump's birthday bash -- has gone viral ... but it has all the makings of a total hoax.

Here's the deal ... an ad posted this week on the D.C. website page with the headline "Seat Fillers Needed - June 14th - Constitution Avenue - DC" claims patriotically dressed seat-fillers would be paid a freaking grand -- in crypto -- to show up and cheer their butts off Saturday.

But .. there are some red (sans white and blue) flags with the post ... for instance, the alleged coordinator -- T-Mellon Events -- doesn't appear to exist, so far as TMZ could find while searching for business records. What's more -- on ALL of Craigslist in the U.S., T-Mellon Events only appears on this single listing.

Oh, the misery ... this can't be how President Trump envisioned opening night for his revamped Kennedy Center going -- a vocal battle between boo birds and his supporters -- and that was even before the curtain came up on "Les Misérables."

As the prez and First Lady Melania Trump strode to their balcony box seats, they were hit with a chorus of boos and excited cheers ... the theatergoers went back and forth for a bit before the "USA, USA!!!" chants won -- and Trump celebrated the small victory by throwing up a raised fist.

Clearly, the audience wasn’t shy -- one woman in the crowd made sure Trump heard her loud and clear, waiting for the crowd to quiet before repeatedly shouting "convicted felon!"

Conservative commentator Michael Knowles tore into Gov. Gavin Newsom on "TMZ Live" -- ripping his response to the L.A. ICE protests and claiming it was such a mess, Trump had no choice but to step in.

Knowles pointed to torched cop cars, assaulted officers, and even an 'illegal alien' allegedly tossing a Molotov cocktail as proof L.A. was in serious trouble -- blaming the chaos on Newsom and Mayor Karen Bass' failure to act accordingly, which forced Trump to bring in the National Guard and send in the Marines.

When our hosts pushed back -- noting the chaos was limited to one small area -- Knowles doubled down, saying Trump’s actually showing restraint in the matter... and this kind of tough crackdown is exactly what voters are begging for.
