Kamala’s Incompetent, Deranged, Radically Leftist Running Mate
On the night of Wednesday May 27, 2020, BLM supporters held a racial justice protest at a Target store near the Third Precinct police station in Minneapolis. After they completely ransacked the Target, the mob began surrounding the police station itself. Everyone in the city knew what was about to happen: Either the authorities would defend the police station, or they’d let it burn.
At 6:23 p.m, the mayor of Minneapolis, Jacob Frey, received an urgent phone call from the chief of police. He preferred to defend the police station, and he told Frey that because the riot was now so large and out of control, the National Guard would be required to do so.
Five minutes later, the mayor’s spokesman texted several other employees in the mayor’s office. He wrote: “Mayor just came out and said the chief wants him to call in the national guard for help at Third Precinct. Mayor appears intent on doing.” Frey’s policy director quickly added: “He called the governor just now.”
That was a reference to the governor of Minnesota, Tim Walz, who was the only one in the state with the authority to deploy the National Guard. Frey passed along the police chief’s message. And before midnight, Frey made his own explicit request to Walz for the deployment of the National Guard.
Keep in mind, Frey is about as far-Left as they come. He’s the kind of mayor who doesn’t resist a single opportunity to pander on the basis of identity politics. He would go on a few days later to performatively weep while kneeling at George Floyd’s golden casket. But in this case, letting a police station burn was just too much, even for Frey.
Yet Walz refused to grant Frey’s request. As the mayor’s spokesperson texted later in the evening: “Walz was hesitating.”
Around 11:00 a.m. the next morning, as reported by the Star Tribune, Frey’s office put their request for the National Guard in writing, citing injuries to first responders as well as, “widespread looting and arson.” Frey wrote that “the ongoing situation is well-beyond the capability of our police and fire departments to respond.”
But Walz hesitated once again. His daughter, a Left-wing activist, posted on social media that the National Guard hadn’t been deployed, which emboldened the rioters further. By the time the governor finally activated the National Guard at 2:30 p.m., the police station had already been evacuated. Rioters stormed in and lit the building on fire.
The police precinct was the most prominent of the 164 arson attacks that took place in Minneapolis from May 27 to May 30 of 2020. As Tim Walz kept the National Guard away from the city, rioters used Molotov cocktails to indiscriminately torch small business, cars, and government buildings.

All of this has been public knowledge for a while now. Walz himself has called his response to the riots an “abject failure.” But that doesn’t explain why he let Minneapolis burn for several days. For years, Walz’s defenders have argued that the situation at the police station was somehow ambiguous, or that he was somehow unaware of what was happening all over Minneapolis — even though it was being broadcast live on national television.
But there’s another explanation that actually makes sense. And it’s that Walz, like so many other Left-wing elites, welcomed the violence. He wanted Minneapolis and the rest of the country to burn. At a deeply personal level, he enjoyed all the death and destruction.
That was certainly the view of the First Lady of Minnesota, Gwen Walz. We know that because she admitted it. In an interview, Gwen Walz says she kept her windows open as long as possible during the riots in order to savor the smell of the burning tires. It was a profound moment for her, because no one was burning down anything she owned. She has bodyguards to prevent that sort of thing. So only the plebs suffered. And as they suffered, Gwen Walz did everything but pull out a fiddle. Watch:

She didn’t call her husband and ask him why he was allowing arson in the street outside her window. She didn’t display any concern for the people who were losing their businesses and their livelihoods. Instead, she went with the single most psychotic option available, which was to revel in the suffering and destruction of other people.
And apparently, the media was fine with this response. There was no national outcry after this interview. When Melania Trump wore a light-hearted jacket during the fake “kids in cages” controversy, it was a five-day news cycle. Imagine if she had done something like this. Imagine if she said she rolled down her window so she could take in the sounds of all the migrant children crying. That’s effectively what we’re seeing here.

And we know Tim Walz endorsed this sentiment, for a couple of reasons. It’s not just that he stalled the deployment of the National Guard, or that he never condemned his wife’s comments. Walz came out and said directly that the riots were a justifiable reaction to America’s failure to fully embrace the principles of DEI. So all those businesses had it coming. The people who died during the riots had it coming too. The tens of millions of dollars of property damage in Minnesota was all worth it, according to Tim Walz. Watch:

“A society that does not put equity and inclusion first will come to this result.” In other words, if you don’t fully support DEI, the government will allow mobs to destroy your business and maybe kill you. And you’ll deserve whatever happens to you.
When I covered the riots in the UK, I made the point that leaders who fail to enforce the law — say, by opening the borders — shouldn’t be surprised when lawlessness eventually breaks out. That doesn’t make lawlessness good, but it does make it understandable in that context.
What Tim Walz is saying is very different. He’s saying that leaders should embrace lawlessness and destruction as a means of compelling people to support his party’s agenda. He doesn’t regret violence. He wants more of it. Terror can be an effective motivator in the voting booth. Keep in mind, Tim Walz said all of this while Derek Chauvin was supposedly receiving a “fair trial” in his state. That jury knew very well that, unless they found some reason to convict Chauvin, the city would burn again.
This is how things are done in Minneapolis. And by picking Tim Walz over a more moderate option like Josh Shapiro, Kamala Harris has signaled very clearly that she wants the Minneapolis model of governance to go nationwide. This is a model where voters are instructed to endorse Democrats’ ideology, or they’ll lose everything.
That includes potentially their children. Last year, Walz signed a law that encourages children to flee from their parents in order to obtain puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones and genital surgeries. The law also allows the state to use these procedures as a means to remove children from the custody of their parents.
From The National Review:
Tim Walz signed a bill in April 2023 that made his state a sanctuary for child sex-changes, promoting tourism for such radical medical interventions in defiance of states that restrict them. … Dubbed the Trans Refuge Bill by supporters, the law grants legal protection to children who travel to Minnesota for so-called gender affirming care, including puberty blockers, reconstructive genital surgery, and hormone therapy, as well as the medical practitioners who provide it. … The law makes seeking gender-transition procedures for minors a factor in some assessments for whether a Minnesota court has jurisdiction to make an initial determination in child-custody cases.
This kind of law is so extreme that even California governor Gavin Newsom vetoed a bill last year which would have required custody courts to consider whether parents are “affirming” the gender delusions of their children. But Tim Walz has no problem with tearing apart families on this basis. In fact, he wants these broken families to come to Minnesota.
In my documentary “What is a Woman?” I spoke to a Canadian father who lost custody of his child after a hospital began administering cross-sex hormones to his daughter without his consent. At the time it seemed like a story that you’d only hear about in Canada. Tim Walz now wants to make that the reality in all 50 states.
And because projection is the Democrats’ platform at this point, Tim Walz will accuse conservatives of hating “freedom” while he works to rip children away from their parents. This is from his big announcement rally yesterday in Pennsylvania. Watch:
What Walz is counting on is that no one in the media will ask him an adversarial question in the next three months. That’s really the only explanation for this. He’s hoping he’ll get the same treatment from the press as Kamala Harris. And frankly that’s probably a safe assumption at this point.
There is nothing about Walz’s tenure as governor that suggests, even remotely, that he would allow people to mind their own business about anything. During COVID, Walz established a Soviet-style “stay at home” hotline to allow people to snitch on their neighbors for violating his lockdown rules. Hundreds of people called in to report that they saw people who weren’t standing six feet apart, or who kept their mask off at a restaurant even though they weren’t mid-bite.
Here’s one of the complaints that was emailed in:
Good morning! I don’t feel people are being compliant with the stay at home order. [At the] convenience store in White Bear Lake, in-store traffic is the same. Customers are coming and saying, I’m bored and need to get out of the house. They buy lottery tickets, a candy bar, a soda etc; those items are not essential. And the traffic flow is the same as it was a month ago. … The stay at home order is not being followed and needs to be stricter.
NY Post
This is the kind of antisocial behavior that Tim Walz encouraged just a few years ago in Minnesota. He didn’t want to send rioters to jail. But he did want to encourage people to rat on their neighbors so that they’d face hefty fines and potentially a jail sentence for disobeying his lockdown orders, which had no scientific basis whatsoever. And now he’s going to lecture conservatives about freedom, because he’s betting that facts don’t matter anymore. His base wants to hear lies and distortions, so that’s what he’ll deliver.
And these are not subtle lies and distortions. At the same rally, Walz invoked the JD Vance “couch” meme, which is based on a fake passage from JD Vance’s book “Hillbilly Elegy” that was uploaded by a random Twitter user a few weeks ago. This is now an attack line that Walz used at his rally — a fabricated page from someone on the internet that has no basis in reality. And the base loved it. Watch:

After watching that clip, and the other ones I’ve showed, there’s not really a point in going into any further detail about Walz’s policies or life story.
Yes, he says he’s proud of his role in passing Obamacare, which has tripled the average family’s health insurance premium.
Yes, the very first executive order that Tim Walz signed created something called a “DEI council” that would address the problem of “whiteness.”
Yes, he was in the military, at least until he abandoned his unit before they deployed to Iraq.
Yes, he wants to give illegals a ladder to climb the border wall, and then he wants to give them driver’s licenses when they get here. He also supports abortion until the moment of birth and putting tampons in the boy’s bathroom at school. Oh, and he thinks that one person’s socialism is another person’s neighborliness.
But it’s not even necessary to go into detail about any of that, because they’re all exactly what you’d expect from a stock far-Left-wing politician. More to the point, Kamala Harris didn’t select Tim Walz to govern anything. She selected him because she thought he’d help him win the election. And she did that because of the belief — pushed by Kamala Harris yesterday, and by the media as well — that Walz is a down-to-earth, blue-collar guy because he knows how to fix a car and likes to hunt.
And this is maybe the most flagrant misrepresentation of all. Blue-collar people aren’t impressed with any of that stuff. That’s obvious to anyone who’s grown up around working-class families, or anyone who’s turned on a television since 2016. Donald Trump is about as non-blue collar as it gets. He probably hasn’t driven a car in 40 years, much less fixed one. He wouldn’t know how to hunt for deer if his life depended on it. But blue-collar voters love him.
That’s because Donald Trump projects an image of someone who loves his country and cares about Americans. Walz, on the other hand, let his middle-class communities burn while his wife enjoyed the smell from the window of their mansion. That is a contrast that Kamala Harris has just embraced.
And if there are still a critical mass of voters in this country who still want to live in America, instead of burning it down, it’s a decision that will cost Kamala Harris the White House in November.
