I’m not sure if there is a leader. Seems like whoever the leading terrorist is runs things. The country has a long history of piracy and theft and barbarism.

In his Democrat campaign speeches and during the October 2024 vice presidential debate as Democrat Kamalas’s pick, Tim Walz encouraged support for the daycare industry and emphasized the need for affordable child care. He views addressing the child care crisis as essential for workforce enhancement and family stability.

Key Points from Democrat Walz’s Position

Federal Assistance: Democrat Walz advocated for federal programs to help with child care affordability and accessibility, including support for paid family leave, citing Minnesota’s program as a model.

Industry Support: He stressed that it should be easier for individuals to enter the child care business and that child care workers, who are often underpaid, should earn a decent salary. The state of Minnesota has invested in grants to boost provider wages.

Funding Mechanism: Walz argued against using tariffs to fund child care initiatives, stating they would raise consumer prices and burden families financially.

Bipartisan Agreement (on the problem): While he and then-vice presidential candidate JD Vance proposed different solutions, both agreed that the lack of affordable child care is a national crisis straining American families.

Recent Daycare Controversy

In late December 2025, Democrat Walz has faced criticism and calls for accountability amid controversy and fraud allegations related to Minnesota’s social service programs, including those involving daycare centers. A viral video by an independent journalist raised questions about a specific Minneapolis “learning center” that appeared inactive despite receiving millions in state funds.

Democrat Walz has pushed back against some of the allegations and defended his administration’s record, stating that those who commit fraud will be prosecuted regardless of their background. State officials maintain that investigations are ongoing and reforms are being implemented to improve oversight.
