Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s wife once admitted she kept the windows of the governor’s residence “open as long as [she] could” to smell the burning tires from the violent 2020 riots in the wake of George Floyd’s death — as her husband’s handling of the protests is back in the spotlight.

Gwen Walz described her husband’s struggle to grapple with the outcry following the May 25, 2020, murder of Floyd by a Minneapolis police officer in a sit-down with KTSP in June of that year.

Gov. Walz’s response to the fiery Black Lives Matter riots in the Twin Cities is facing scrutiny again after the former National Guardsman was picked to be Kamala Harris’ running mate on the Democratic tick

I wanted this story on the FR sidebar. Other threads will not appear on the sidebar because posters use only topics like chit-chat.

Kind of like the wives of the Nazi’s in Auschwitz leaving their windows open to smell the burnt flesh of the ovens.

Walz is a despicable fraud and pro-Gaza. I can see why Dem activists like him.

The left truly are sick sick people

Winnie Walz misses the nostalgic, beautiful smell of necklacing.

I hope she enjoys the Convention in Chicago.

I wonder what the people who lost their businesses think about that...

She should move to South Africa. They’ll burn one right under her chin for her to smell.

Seriously? This woman is mentally deranged and needs major therapy—but that probably would not cure the permanent brain damage she suffers from. Liberalism is a serious mental disorder-——damaged beyond repair.

she’s weird.

[Salman]

Was she really close enough to smell it, or just virtue signaling?

It's not just wives doing this, husbands too...

She ought to move Los Angeles
