Trump reveals who he blames for Minnesota water cyberattack – and it’s not Iran | 31 July 2026 | President Donald Trump dismissed speculation that Iran was behind a cyberattack targeting dozens of water systems in Minnesota, blaming instead the state’s “corrupt governor,” Tim Walz, and the state he runs destroys. “I just want to mention that we heard in Minnesota there was a cyberattack, and they blame it on Iran,” he said at the start of a Cabinet meeting Friday at Camp David, Maryland. “I don’t think so. I think I blame it on Minnesota because they’re grossly incompetent,” Trump said. “There was a cyberattack of 30 water plants, and I would blame it on Minnesota and the governor, the corrupt governor of Minnesota. They like to say, oh, is Iran? Iran should be so lucky. Iran’s got bigger problems than worrying about Minnesota.”
