Tim Walz

Timothy James “Tim” Walz (born April 6, 1964, age 62) is the radical left and communist-aligned Democrat Farm Labor party governor of the state of Minnesota, having served in that position since January 2019. His tenure as governor has been described as a "disaster for Minnesotans", with Walz presiding over a 70% increase in homicides in the state.

Walz has a history of making false and misleading statements and is perhaps best known for inciting mob violence. During the the 2020 Leftwing riots in advance of the 2020 presidential election, Walz made no effort to quell the Black Lives Matter and fascist Antifa terrorists who were looting businesses, setting vehicles on fire and murdering at least 2 people in Minneapolis-Saint Paul. Walz peddled a conspiracy theory that drug cartels and white supremacists were behind the violence.

Kamala Harris picked Tim Walz as her running mate for the 2024 US presidential election on August 6 that year. At the time, he was facing an accusation of "stolen valor", as when he was running for governor in 2018, Walz embellished and selectively omitted facts about his military service; for example, his official bio claimed that Walz "retired as a sergeant major in 2005", whereas Walz actually failed to meet the conditions of his promotion to this rank, rendering it null and void.

Walz, reportedly headlined a Chinese Communist Party influence group's 2019 national convention.

As Nancy Pelosi attempted to play down Walz's extreme liberal record, Republicans, were quick to attack Walz on his record, particularly his oversight of Minneapolis, the epicenter of the 2020 George Floyd riots and destruction.

Walz allowed the city of Minneapolis to be burnt down by his voter base before calling in the National Guard to defend lives and property. A Twin Cities resident wrote to the Pioneer Press/Dispatch:

The fact is George Floyd was killed in Minneapolis, by a Minneapolis policeman. He was not killed by a federal agent in a community of white supremacists.

Minneapolis has been dominated by Democrat mayors for more than 40 years. If systemic racism exists in the Minneapolis police force it has been enabled by Democrat leaders for more than 40 years. Make no mistake, Gov. Walz, Mayor Frey, Attorney General Ellison, Police Chief Arradondo, Rep. Omar, Sens. Klobuchar and Smith – you own this situation. You have all run on platforms promising you would rid our community of this type of heinous behavior.

Liberal politicians’ show their cynicism when, while in control for decades, they express their outrage that racism is a systemic problem in the police department of our largest city. Each of these leaders has expressed support for the protesters, as if they are sympatico with their cause. Where is the self-awareness? These people are not supporting your leadership, they are protesting against your failure to deal with systemic racism while you are empowered to make real change.

Tim Walz is our governor; not George Wallace

Jacob Frey is the mayor; not Lester Maddox

Keith Ellison is attorney general; not Jeff Sessions

Amy Klobuchar is our U.S. senator; not Strom Thurmond

Medaria Arradondo is police chief; not Bull Connor

Enough of the empty accolades for the protesters. Don’t pretend you are in agreement with their cause. Your actions, while in power to make real change, demonstrate otherwise. The correct response on your part is not to insult the community with feigned emotion, your responsibility was to prevent this from happening. You have all failed miserably.

Sen. Kamala Harris solicited money for the MFF to bail out Antifa terrorists who burnt down the Minneapolis Police Station.

Gov. Walz estimated the cost of the damage to more than 1,500 businesses in Minneapolis and St. Paul at over $500 million. Walz stood idly by while looters and rioters burned businesses and neighborhoods to the ground. Walz did nothing and continued to do nothing as public property and monuments were defaced and destroyed. As his own citizens begged for protection, Walz turned a blind eye to liberal Democrat socialist terrorism while forcing taxpayers to shut down their places of business and churches because of “COVID concerns.”

Kamala Harris, the Democratic nominee in the 2024 US presidential contest after incumbent Democrat führer Joe Biden withdrew due to his apparent cognitive decline and dementia, selected Tim Walz as her vice presidential pick. The decision is highly unpopular.

Walz was picked over the leading contender Gov. Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania as a concession to the violent and anti-Semitic pro- (genocidal ) Hamas and pro-Palestinian elements of the Democrat party.

Reacting to the events, Florida governor Ron DeSantis is quoted as saying: "Harris-Walz: most left-wing ticket in American history 'Minnesota was ground zero for the BLM riots of 2020. Harris egged it on and Walz sat by and let Minneapolis burn."

Speaker Mike Johnson, another former colleague of Walz called him the 'most liberal 'nominee' to ever appear on a presidential ballot.' He 'has now chosen a progressive running mate who has voiced support for socialism, supports sanctuary cities, and wants to give driver's licenses to the millions of illegal aliens Kamala Harris has allowed into our country.' Adding: 'No amount of spin from the campaign or the media can distract from the objective facts and the disastrous records of Harris and Walz.'
