U.S. citizens: Demand Congress investigate soaring excess death rates
(LifeSiteNews) — Kamala Harris’s pick to be her vice presidential running mate, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, is an aggressive leftist who since taking office has instituted a program to bribe teens with $200 VISA cards to take the COVID-19 jab while also offering a chance to win a $100,000 scholarship; signed an executive order making Minnesota a sanctuary for gender transitions; and signed into law a “right” to unlimited abortion putting the North Star State on par with the likes of North Korea according to pro-life leaders.
Walz bribed teens to take a dangerous experimental drug
In 2021, Walz announced that teens in his state who get their first COVID shot before November 30 were eligible to receive a $200 VISA gift card.
The program, aimed at 12–17-year-olds, is titled “Kids Deserve a Shot,” also includes a chance to win a $100,000 scholarship to attend a public or private Minnesota college.
The governor’s attempt at bribery was aimed at persuading kids who were otherwise disinclined to do so to take the COVID-19 jab which had already shown to have heightened risks for young people.
Without mentioning the documented risks, Walz encouraged young people via social media to go ahead and get vaccinated.
“Minnesota teens: Not only are you eligible to get vaccinated, but starting today, you can also get $200 AND a shot at a $100,000 college scholarship,” shouted a tweet from Walz.
“Tell your friends and head to [the Minnesota vaccine rewards website],” he urged.
Walz defended abortions until birth
In early 2023, the second term governor signed into law the so-called Protect Reproductive Options (PRO) Act which asserted a woman’s “fundamental right” to “continue the pregnancy and give birth, or obtain an abortion, and to make autonomous decisions about how to exercise this fundamental right.” The law declared that this “right” is contained in the Minnesota Constitution’s “principles of individual liberty, personal privacy, and equality;” and forbids localities from “regulat[ing] an individual’s ability to freely exercise the fundamental rights set forth in this section in a manner that is more restrictive than that set forth in this section.”
Pro-life activists were quick to denounce the new law.
“Let’s be clear: The PRO Act would mean it’s legal for any baby to be aborted, for any reason and at any time up to birth,” said Minnesota Citizens Concerned for Life co-executive director Cathy Blaeser. “The absolutist extremism of this bill would put Minnesota in the company of just a handful of countries worldwide, among them China and North Korea. Mothers and babies deserve a far more humane and compassionate approach.”
Under the law, “a school counselor can take a student to an abortion clinic without their parents’ knowledge,” warns Tim Miller, executive director of Pro-Life Action Ministries Action. “An unborn child can be murdered up to one second before they leave their mother’s birth canal. There will be no requirement for an abortion to take place in a clinic setting and a doctor is no longer needed.”
Walz turned Minnesota into sanctuary for ‘gender transitions’
A few months later in 2023, Gov. Walz signed an executive order making the North Star State a sanctuary for gender transitions, including for residents of other states with more conservative laws.
“As states across the country move to ban access to gender-affirming care, we want LGBTQ Minnesotans to know they will continue to be safe, protected, and welcome in Minnesota,” Walz declared at the time. “In Minnesota, you will not be punished for seeking or providing medical care. This Executive Order delivers the urgent action that our LGBTQ Minnesotans deserve.”
Walz: A long history of leftist governance
As soon as the Harris camp let it be known that Walz was her VP running mate choice, social media lit up with posts drawing attention to his dark track record since becoming Minnesota Governor in 2019.
Former gubernatorial candidate Mike Murphy who challenged Walz in 2022 posted a video montage from his campaign which recounted what he deemed to be Walz’s “first term failures,” including locking down his entire state during the COVID-19 pandemic and permitting BLM riots to destroy Minnesota cities.
Murphy didn’t mince words, declaring on X that Kamala Harris had chosen “the worst, most careless Governor in history” as her running mate.

‘Weird dudes’
Walz, who previously served in Congress for 12 years, is credited with coining the odd phrase identifying all conservatives and Republicans as “weird dudes.”
“How often in 100 days do you get to change the trajectory of the world?” asked Walz during a recent “White Dudes for Harris” fundraising call. “How often in 100 days do you get to do something that’s going to impact generations to come?”
“And how often in the world do you make that bastard wake up afterwards and know that a Black woman kicked his a**, sent him on the road?” Walz asked.
