One of the new books currently being pushed by journalists desperately trying to pretend that they weren’t part of the cover-up of Biden’s decline, claims that Minnesota Governor Tim Walz was terrified to face then Ohio Senator JD Vance in the vice presidential debate last fall. Anyone who was watching that debate knows that this was a major turning point in the election. Tim Walz seemed completely unprepared to answer difficult questions about his past and his record. He truly looked like a deer in headlights. JD Vance, on the other hand, was calm, cool, and collected. Vance answered questions...

The Hennepin County Attorney’s Office has decided not to file criminal charges against a 33-year-old man who admits inflicting more than $20,000 in damage to six Teslas in Minneapolis over a few-day span last month.

The Hennepin County Attorney’s Office has decided not to file criminal charges against a 33-year-old man accused of inflicting $21,000 in damage to six Teslas in Minneapolis over a few-day span. Instead, the office will file for Dylan Bryan Adams, of Minneapolis, to be entered into an adult diversion program meant for first-time, low level offenders. “Our main priorities are to secure restitution for the victims and hold Mr. Adams accountable,” said Hennepin County Attorney’s Office spokesman Daniel Borgertpoepping, in a statement. “As a result, we will file for pre-charge diversion to best facilitate both of those goals. This is...

Video at link. EXCERPT: WALZ: “I have come to understand what Donald Trump, what pops into his head and he says, he's going to carry it out. I -- once again, he talked about the tariffs. He talked about, you know, he's going to deport people. And this whole thing with Mr. Abrego Garcia, it's that old wisdom and terrifying is if you're not speaking up for this man, there will be no one left to speak up for you.

Tim Walz’s record as governor of Minnesota grows more troubling as the consequences of his policies have played out. Americans have seen a lot of Tim Walz lately as the failed vice-presidential candidate has held town halls nationally criticizing national Republicans. In a telling interview, he admitted to the New York Magazine this week, “90% of the time, I can be really good, but about 10% of the time, I can be a train wreck.” And in an interview with Jake Tapper that was itself something of a train wreck, he rejected the conclusion that every American with a pulse...

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz gets booed and heckled off stage by a group of veterans as his Elon Musk Protests backfire in a hilarious moment of payback. While Walz has been trying to launch his 2028 campaign by staging townhalls and protests against Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and DOGE, he hilariously faces a moment of poetic justice after the very veterans who accuse him of "stolen valor" confront him on his lies in the same style that Democrats have done at Congressional Townhalls to protest against the Trump Administration.

Democratic Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz recently admitted that he can sometimes be a “train wreck” because he speaks “from the heart.” Minnesota’s Manic Marxist also told New York Magazine, in an interview published March 31st, that the Democratic Party lost the 2024 presidential election because it is too “timid.” Wow, never heard that one before. Tampon Timmy also claimed that Democrats should have doubled down on DEI and other forms of wokeness. This is the same guy who, when pressed during the vice presidential debate about patently false statements he had made regarding his presence at the Tiananmen Square protests...

A group of state workers protested over the weekend, outside the Governor’s residence in St. Paul, after a new policy was announced requiring employees to be back in the office more often. “They are mad — we’ve been doing our work from home for the last five years during the pandemic, and we’re more productive at home, “said Megan Dayton, president of the Minnesota Association of Professional Employees. “We don’t understand why this is happening.” Last week, Governor Tim Walz announced the policy change that will require most Minnesota state agency employees to work in-person for at least 50% of...

First he was a “knucklehead”; now he’s a “smarta--.” Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, a Democrat, said Saturday that he was making a joke when he made a comment last week mocking Tesla and its CEO Elon Musk for the company’s recent downward trend in the stock market. Walz attempted to clarify his comments during a town hall in Rochester, Minnesota. “This guy bugs me in a way that’s probably unhealthy,” Walz said, referring to Musk. “I have to be careful about being a smarta--. I was making a joke. These people have no sense of humor. They are the most...

Governor Tim Walz (D-MN) claimed Thursday on MSNBC’s “The Rachel Maddow Show” that schools could segregate without the existence of the Department of Education. Maddow said, “What’s your reaction to closing the Education Department today?” Walz said, “Well, we knew it was coming, but it’s still a day that I dreaded. I dreaded it as a teacher, as a parent, certainly as a governor now. And the sad part for me about this is Donald Trump doesn’t know anything about education. This has been a long time dream of the far right to crush the public education system, to take...

The radical left’s violent fantasies toward President Trump and his supporters extend to the party’s last VP nominee. Minnesota Governor Tim Walz went on California Governor Gavin Newsom’s podcast in an episode released on Tuesday to discuss how Democrats could win back voters lost to President Trump. As expected, the two were long on gripes but short on actual solutions. Then, things soon took a bit of a turn. After both Newsom and Walz said that it was important to show some decency to the other side to help the Democratic Party’s brand recover, Walz sent a message that could...

Ex-veep nominee Tim Walz slammed President Donald Trump for creating economic chaos on Wednesday ― but he also blamed himself and presidential nominee Kamala Harris in an MSNBC interview. Walz told host Chris Hayes that Trump was the “worst possible business executive that I have ever witnessed.” He also thanked the Wall Street Journal for its scathing editorial on Trump’s tariff war. He said it could help spur the Democratic Minnesota governor’s GOP constituents to rethink their support of Trump. “I think Americans have had it,” Walz explained.”… Look, I own this. We wouldn’t be in this mess if we’d...

On Wednesday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “All In,” Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) responded to plans to eliminate the federal Department of Education by claiming that “Ruby Bridges needed to be escorted into those schools and the folks who went into Little Rock because we didn’t have an Education Department that ensured her civil rights were respected. That’s gone now.” And stated that “when Trump says it’s a bunch of bureaucrats interfering with your local schools, give local control, we’ll give you the money, it sounds pretty good. And we have not provided what that alternative looks like.” Walz said, “What...

HELENA, Montana — Tim Walz thinks he and Kamala Harris played it too safe last year. He thinks they should have held more town halls. He thinks they didn’t have time to get their feet under them. And he thinks Democrats should have taken more risks and gone to more places. “We shouldn’t have been playing this thing so safe,” the Minnesota governor said in an interview with POLITICO before speaking to nearly 1,000 Democrats here at the Helena fairgrounds last weekend. ... His prescription for Democrats now and in the midterms, he said, is that Democrats “should be everywhere.”...

During an interview on MSNBC on Tuesday, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) declared that the problem in 2024 was “not enough Americans believed that, we, as Democrats or Vice President Harris and myself, were on their side, and we are. Our policies are popular. But that didn’t resonate.” .. I think the thing I learned is, is we need to be in every space, everywhere. Saturday night, I was up in Helena, Montana.

A high school in Minnesota was forced to cancel a field trip scheduled only for students who 'identify as a person of color' after a civil rights complaint was filed. Mark Perry, a community member and retired professor in Twin Cities in Minnesota, saw information on the field trip, which allegedly only was available to students who identified as students of color, on social media. The trip for Highland Park High School offered a chance for students to be exposed to digital marketing and advertising careers, according to Perry. Perry told the Star Tribune that the event, which has been...

“I see the pundits on TV [asking], ‘what’s wrong with the Democratic Party?’ What’s wrong is our country is being stolen by fascists and Nazis and we’re trying to do all we can to try and [stop] that,” Walz said according to the recording... “We spent three days, you know, having them try to debate whether President Musk gave a Nazi salute,” Walz told MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow during a Jan. 28 segment. “Of course he did. But that is a distraction.”

Mark Zuckerberg announced on Friday that his Meta company, which operates Facebook and Instagram, had abandoned its DEI practices. As part of that move, the company told facilities managers to remove the tampons from the men's bathrooms. "That same day at Meta’s offices in Silicon Valley," The New York Times reported, "Texas and New York, facilities managers were instructed to remove tampons from men’s bathrooms, which the company had provided for nonbinary and transgender employees who use the men’s room and who may have required sanitary pads, two employees said." Some people could hardly beleive that this had been the...

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) endorsed Democratic National Committee vice chair candidate David Hogg on Friday, marking the latest big name endorsement for Hogg. “David Hogg represents exactly the kind of bold, dynamic, and courageous leadership the Democratic Party needs right now,” Walz said in a statement. “After campaigning with David throughout the country, I know firsthand his unique ability to connect with the American people and to speak to the strengths of our party,” he continued. “This is exactly what we need right now: experienced, thoughtful, and energized leadership that meets people where they are and takes bold action...
