Tim Walz’s disparaging comment reveals his unusual behavior compared to others on the left

Tim Walz referenced his “weird” comment against Republicans once again this week when he was announced as Kamala Harris’ VP candidate. 

He takes pride in the fact that his remark on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” gained attention a couple of weeks ago and played a role in securing his position as a running mate. 

“These guys are creepy and, yes, just weird as hell,” Walz remarked about Donald Trump and JD Vance in his debut speech in Pennsylvania on Tuesday. 

The irony is palpable. 

Let’s examine the oddities of the Democrats’ new leadership: 

It’s peculiar that Walz mandated tampons in boys’ bathrooms in Minnesota schools. 

It’s peculiar for the party that touts itself as the protector of democracy to appoint its leaders without an election. 

It’s peculiar that Walz hesitated for three days while Minneapolis was engulfed in flames before calling in the National Guard during the 2020 BLM-antifa riots.

He abandoned the city’s Third Precinct police headquarters when it was overrun and set on fire.

Walz justified his strange inaction as a way to avoid being “oppressive” to the rioters who had experienced “generations of pain” and “fundamental, institutional racism.” 

It’s peculiar that Walz’s wife kept the windows open “as long as I could” during the riots to be able to “smell the burning tires” and savor the historic moment. 

It’s peculiar that Walz allowed his then-19-year-old daughter to leak the National Guard’s deployment plans on Twitter so that rioters could continue to ransack Minneapolis. 

It’s peculiar that Harris and Walz base their campaign on “freedom” yet he was the most authoritarian governor in the country during the pandemic, ruling by decree for 15 months, enforcing draconian shutdown orders, mask mandates, and curfews. 

It’s peculiar that Walz tells Republicans to “mind your own damn business” when he created a COVID telephone “snitch line” for people to report on their neighbors who violated his draconian COVID restrictions. 

It’s peculiar that Walz defended the censorship of COVID dissenters by stating on MSNBC: “There’s no guarantee to free speech on misinformation or hate speech especially around our democracy.” 

It’s peculiar that Walz signed laws allowing teenagers to be sterilized and genitally mutilated without parental consent and referred to it as “gender-affirming care.” 

It’s peculiar that Walz signed into law a new definition of “sexual orientation” that removed an exemption against pedophilia. 

It’s peculiar that Walz transformed Minnesota into a “trans refuge” with a law that removes children from parents who do not consent to their kids’ sex-change surgery and hormone treatment.

Even transgender Minnesota state Rep. Leigh Finke described the bill as “beautifully weird.” 

It’s peculiar that Walz turned Minnesota into an “abortion mecca” with no time limit up to the moment of birth and sometimes beyond, and no requirement for minors to inform their parents. 

It’s peculiar that Walz is portrayed as the epitome of decency and “Minnesota nice” and yet his first national speech included a crude sex joke about Vance and a couch cushion created by internet trolls. 

It’s peculiar that Walz visited China around 30 times, even spending his honeymoon there.

“No matter how long I live, I’ll never be treated that well again,” he remarked after his initial visit in 1990.

“They gave me more gifts than I could bring home.” He might want to share experiences with the Bidens. 

It’s peculiar that Walz and his wife, Gwen, selected June 4 as their wedding date to commemorate the violent anniversary of China’s crackdown on democracy protesters in Tiananmen Square.

“He wanted to have a date he’ll always remember,” Gwen explained. 

It’s peculiar that Walz left the National Guard when he was about to be deployed to Iraq, then claimed he had been to war. 

It’s peculiar that Walz suggested providing ladders to illegal migrants so they could cross over Trump’s border wall. 

It’s peculiar that Walz claims “one person’s socialism is another person’s neighborliness.” 

It’s peculiar that Harris and Walz assert they are defending “democracy” but he signed a law to grant driver’s licenses to illegal aliens, a first step to voting illegally in elections. 

It’s peculiar that Walz criticizes Trump for his stance on law and order while crime in Minneapolis has surged under his leadership. 

It’s peculiar that he presents himself as a “folksy” common-sense working man with “Midwestern dad vibes” who hunts and wears camo caps.

Yet he governs like a zealous, green-haired radical, with taxes among the highest in the country and residents fleeing the state as rapidly as possible. 

It’s peculiar that Walz is a teacher married to a teacher, the son of a teacher, and claims education is a priority, yet under his watch, Minnesota student average reading and math scores have dropped below the national average, according to the National Assessment of Educational Progress. 

Despite increased spending, for the first time, majorities of K-12 students in Minnesota are not meeting grade-level standards, as found by the Minnesota Center of the American Experiment.

Minnesota’s CNBC education ranking has plummeted from fifth to 19th place in the country since he took office as governor. 

It’s peculiar that Harris has not conducted a single interview since being named the presumptive Democratic nominee for president over two weeks ago. 

It’s peculiar that she laughs at her own jokes. 

In psychology, attributing your own flaws to others is called projection, and Walz and Harris seem to exhibit a notable case of it.

New Hunter bombshells

One of the reasons Democratic decision-makers opted to replace Joe Biden became apparent in the recent bombshell court filings in First Son Hunter’s upcoming tax trial, which for the first time reference potential violations related to foreign lobbying. 

While prosecutors for special counsel David Weiss state that the government “does not intend to reference allegations that the defendant violated FARA or improperly coordinated with the Obama administration,” they do mention that Hunter was employed by a Romanian oligarch in an effort to influence US government agencies. 

Furthermore, they indicate that the approximately $1 million Hunter received from Romanian oligarch Gabriel Popoviciu during his father’s vice presidency was structured in a way to hide the true nature of his work and prevent it from causing political consequences for Joe. 

The filings suggest that if the trial proceeds next month in California without Hunter accepting a plea, it will implicate his father in the family’s influence-peddling activities. 

The ramifications of Hunter’s lucrative dealings in Romania, Ukraine, China, and beyond would have harmed his father’s reelection chances if he was still the candidate. 

Regardless of previous statements from the president, it is highly likely that he will pardon his son before leaving office.
