Social media reacts to Fox News saying Milwaukee is in Minnesota: 'I know it well'

Rejoice Minnesota Vikings fans living in enemy territory.

Apparently, Milwaukee is part of Minnesota. This, according to Fox News' Laura Ingraham.

"If you know Minnesota well, and I know it well — especially Milwaukee — it's changed," she said during her program on Wednesday. "It has never recovered from 2020 and it is not the same place. And Tim Walz was empathizing with all the DEI initiatives that were swirling about."

Ingraham and her panel were discussing positions of diversity, equity and inclusion that Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz holds. Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic presidential candidate, picked Walz as her running mate on Tuesday. During his time as governor, the murder of George Floyd and subsequent riots happened in Minneapolis.

What followed was a national racial and social justice movement that emphasized diversity, equity and inclusion. Many organizations, both public and private, adopted initiatives or policy changes that they believe helps bring about more diversity, racial equity and inclusion.

There are those that oppose such initiatives, believing they sow division and hate. Fox News is politically a right-wing network and is also the most watched network in all of television in weekday primetime, according to Nielsen.

Ingraham's remark caught the attention of many on social media. Here are some reactions:
