Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz said Wednesday that his time as an elected official will permanently end when he finishes his term as governor.
“I will never run for an elected office again. Never again,” Walz, the 2024 Democratic vice presidential nominee, said in an interview with MS NOW.
Walz had said this month that he would not seek re-election as governor — sending shock waves through state and national politics — but he did not go so far as to say he would not consider another elected position down the line.
In explaining his decision Wednesday, Walz talked about the scenes unfolding in Minneapolis between residents and federal officers. He said he found that there are “heroes on the streets that we don’t know their names.”
“They’re never going to run for office, and those grass-tops leaders brought this administration to their knees this week to do something about it. So there’s other ways to serve, and I’ll find them,” he said.
Walz’s earlier announcement that he would not seek a third term as governor came amid heightened scrutiny of Minnesota's handling of alleged child care fraud. It also came months after Walz said he wanted to run again.

Instead, he’s going to open a “Learing” Center and steal millions from taxpayers.
Does that mean he’s retiring? Or does he have a future in some big foundation or NGO?
Prison certainly can alter your future political plans.
He plans to a string of day-cares in Blue states ?
... and observe all the other terms of his parole?
Well, it’s not like people would want him for dog catcher after all of the fraud being discovered, not to mention the mayhem that took place.
What a petulant whiner. Thank God he isn't in the White House.
WTH are "grass-tops leaders"?
He's the Lucy of national politics...
He’s being recalled to China.
I think President Trump had a meeting with him recently.
About 18 months earlier, Walz was thrust into the national spotlight when Vice President Kamala Harris picked him as her running mate in the 2024 election.
Will there be a “dead cat” bounce?
Copilot Search Branding
A dead cat bounce is a term used in investing to describe a temporary recovery in asset prices after a prolonged decline or bear market, followed by a continuation of the downtrend. This phenomenon indicates that the initial recovery is not a sign of a reversal in the overall trend, but rather a brief respite before prices fall again.
sending shock waves through state and national politics “
Yeah shock waves right.
“Instead, he’s going to open a “Learing” Center and steal millions from taxpayers.”
That’s what I got. He’s going to tear down the country from the outside rather than the inside.
Hard to campaign from a jail cell.
Beat me to it.
Does he think that will exempt him from Fraud and Sedition charges? Actually, it makes it easier to bust and jail him.
He’s 61 going on 80, but sounds like a deal letting him off prosecution.
I don’t think you had a choice in the matter, Tim.
