Several Minneapolis police officers have expressed dismay over Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) running for vice president during the 2024 election. Speaking with Blaze Media for the fifth anniversary of the Black Lives Matter riots that were sparked by the murder of George Floyd, police officers said that Walz’s poor leadership made the situation worse. “I think he made some comments leading up to the last election to make it sound like he supports law enforcements, but I think his actions and indecision … back in 2020 proved otherwise,” one officer told the outlet.

Rep. LaMonica McIver (D-NJ) announced that she has rebuffed an offer of a "plea deal" from Interim US Attorney for New Jersey Alina Habba. "It says right in the Constitution that members of Congress are immune from arrest," she boasted. "It also says members of Congress shall not be questioned in any other place. Court is where Ms. Habba wants me to go to answer her questions. Well, I'm not going and she can't make me." Habba said "for one thing, we have video of Rep. McIver body-slamming an ICE agent. For another, I think she is misinterpreting what the...

Minnesota’s Democratic Gov. Tim Walz told an audience of graduating students that the nation’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents are “Trump’s Modern Gestapo.” The Gestapo was the secret police created by Adolf Hitler’s National Socialist regime in the 1930s. The name is an abbreviation of a German noun, Geheime Staatspolizei [Secret State Police], which was used to murder a vast number of people throughout Europe. In contrast, ICE protects Americans’ borders, communities, and livelihoods from the destructive mass migration encouraged by Walz and other Democrats. For example, ICE raids often ensure market wage raises for ordinary Americans, so reducing...

To belabor the Tim Walz U-M law school graduation speech, the descriptions and headlines of his rant don’t do it justice. Here’s what he said to the graduates,Donald Trump’s modern-day Gestapo is scooping folks up off the streets, they are in unmarked vans, wearing masks, being shipped off to foreign torture dungeons, no chance to mount a defense, not even the chance to kiss a loved-one goodbye, just grabbed up by masked agents, shoved into those vans, and disappeared. To be clear, there’s no way for us to know whether they were actually criminals or not, because they refuse to...

Democrat Minnesota Governor Tim Walz recently criticized the Trump administration's immigration policies during his State of the State address. He focused primarily on the deportation of individuals suspected of criminal activity, including alleged MS-13 gang member Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia. Walz called the administration’s approach a threat to American values and fundamental rights, sparking boos from the audience.

National security adviser Mike Waltz and his deputy, Alex Wong, will be leaving their posts in the Trump White House, according to multiple sources familiar with their departure. They are expected to leave Thursday, sources say. The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Journalist Mark Halperin first reported the departures. In March, Waltz came under scrutiny after he put together a Signal chat and mistakenly included The Atlantic's Jeffrey Goldberg, disclosing discussions with top national security officials about plans for a military strike on Houthi targets in Yemen. Goldberg published his account, and he initially...

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz made an appearance at the Harvard Kennedy School this week and told people that he was picked to be Kamala Harris’ running mate because he could ‘code talk’ to white guys. That strategy didn’t work out too well for the Harris campaign, did it? Democrats lost men of all races by a wide margin. In fact, the Democratic party is struggling to figure out how to win back male voters who have deserted them in record numbers.

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...

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton warned "if they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone. Americans of conscience must stand against this now." Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Ma) warned that "if President Donald Trump's administration can deport Kilmar Abrego-Garcia, they can 'disappear' you. This is the time for the American people to start fighting back for our country." Rep. Debbie Dingell (D-Mi) said "I did three town halls in a 24 hour period. One was in a very conservative part of my district that voted for Trump,...

Well, when the governor gives the green light to go out and commit crimes for political purposes, it's not surprising that one of the 37,000 people working for him will happily do so. As you may recall, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz was giddy about the drop in Tesla stock price driven by the Democrat-funded domestic terrorist campaign against Elon Musk. What do you expect? He was the Democratic Party candidate for Vice President, who loves to pal around with the radical billionaires who toss their money into groups like Indivisible, and gives rousing speeches to the Antifa-loving crowds who still...

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.

Kamala’s VP Tim Walz sent his tyrannical agents into Minnesota neighborhoods to shoot citizens with paintball guns during Covid Do we really want someone like this running our country?

My hope is that this case results in a solid legal repudiation of the tyrannical, extra-legal policy of Gov. Walz, and sets a precedent against future abuses of this kind," Stewart said. ...

Pilgrim Lutheran Church in St Paul, MN, is a trainwreck of a congregation. Led by impastor Jen Rome, they are an Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) congregation that exemplifies all the most heretical parts of the denomination. Notably, a recent article by RNS identified this as Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s (who is Kamala Harris’ radical Vice President pick) denomination and parish. The church, which checks off all the usual pro-choice/ pro-LGBTQ boxes, uses the “Inclusive Bible” for all scripture readings and say they are committed to: * Antiracism work, de-centering whiteness, and making reparations for race violence * LGBTQIA+...

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...

On Wednesday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “All In,” Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) defended his comments about taking glee in Tesla’s stock — which his state’s retirement fund owns shares of — falling and stated that “It’s a little bit personal.” But it’s also because CEO Elon Musk is “attacking the portfolios of working Minnesotans and working Americans who’ve paid into these programs that he calls a Ponzi scheme.” Walz said, “It’s a little bit personal. I don’t want to be disingenuous. The guy does bother me. It’s a little bit personal. But look, my beef on this is, is that...

Failed Vice Presidential candidate Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) framed Democrat-aligned Susan Crawford’s Wisconsin Supreme Court election win on Tuesday as the state overcoming billionaire Elon Musk, who tried to boost her conservative opponent Brad Schimel. “Wisconsin beat the billionaire,” said Walz in a post to X. Walz notably campaigned for Dane County Circuit Court Judge Crawford, along with Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and drag queens.
