As a Minnesota resident I have known and loathed Tim Walz as a governor for years, but most of America is just getting to know him.
Not that he is helping introduce himself. Aside for awkwardly shouting about 'minding your own business" and waving like a doofus at rallies, he has followed the Harris strategy of not saying a word to the media.
Perhaps that is because he, like Kamala Harris, is a radical leftist who makes Karl Marx look sane and moderate.

You may know and loath Walz for his stolen valor, his aiding and abetting the burning of Minneapolis, and for pushing gender transition on children.
You may even know that he is a big fan of murdering children and passing a law allowing abortion until birth. He signed a law turning Minnesota into a "sanctuary state" for child gender transition, pledging state resources to defend noncustodial parents who kidnapped a child to get their children sterilized and mutilated.
But did you know that he is reworking the curriculum in our state, turning it into a radical anti-American propaganda tool?
Nope? Well, he is. Stanley Kurtz has the story in the National Review.
Brian Lozenski, an associate professor of urban and multicultural education at Macalester College in Saint Paul, Minn., was appointed by Governor Tim Walz’s state education department to help write the statewide “implementation framework” (similar to a curriculum) for Minnesota’s new “ethnic studies” standards. It now emerges that Lozenski has called for the “overthrow” of the United States.
Lozenski is no outlier. On the contrary, he has been the leading voice advocating the addition of a radical version of “ethnic studies” to Minnesota’s social-studies standards (citizenship and government, economics, geography, history, and now ethnic studies). Lozenski is also the key organizer and thought leader for the radical leftist advocacy groups that Governor Walz has effectively put in charge of rewriting Minnesota’s social-studies standards. While Lozenski’s call for the overthrow of the United States is the clearest expression of his radical stance to date, it’s hardly surprising. For years, conservative voices in Minnesota have sounded the alarm over the extremism of Lozenski and his allies. Maybe now, Walz will have to answer for putting Lozenski and his friends in charge of education in the state.
Walz has been pushing Critical Race Theory and alphabet ideology into the public schools, so it is no surprise that his appointees are all about destroying America.
He believes the country to be fundamentally, systemically, and endemically racist, sexist, and homophobic, and his goal has been to turn our state into the People's Republic of Minnesota.
As Vice President, his goal will still be more ambitious: to upend American society.
Don't get me wrong: Walz is not really smart enough to accomplish this goal. That's why he surrounds himself with radical activists who are at least marginally more intelligent than he. Like Kamala Harris, his job is to be the frontman for radical technocrats (who would have guessed such people would ever exist?) who infiltrate our bureaucracies to push this crap.
Minnesota’s version of ethnic studies, known as “liberated ethnic studies,” is more radical than that of any other state. The scholars and teachers who created liberated ethnic studies are based in California, but even California governor Gavin Newsom has distanced himself from the extremism of their approach. As a proponent of liberated ethnic studies, Lozenski was the founding organizer of Education for Liberation Minnesota, the first and only state-level branch outside of California of the liberated-ethnic-studies movement. Lozenski also provided legislative testimony instrumental to passing the 2023 bill that added ethnic studies to Minnesota’s education standards. On top of that, Lozenski’s scholarly work and opinion pieces have set the tone and agenda for ethnic studies in Minnesota.
Lozenski’s 2022 book, My Emancipation Don’t Fit Your Equation: Critical Enactments of Black Education in the US, is his most important academic work. On May 27, 2022, Lozenski recorded a Zoom video, posted to YouTube, about his book. That video event was called “Education in the Blacklight: Fugitivity, Abolition, and Accommodation.” The entire video is of interest, but the comments calling for the overthrow of the United States can be found from 54:30 to 57:00, during a discussion of the debate over critical race theory (CRT). A quick look at Lozenski’s treatment of CRT in his book will help to make sense of his video remarks.
The curriculum has already been written and was supposed to be released this month for public comment. Yet for some strange reason its release has been delayed, despite a statutory deadline of October 31st.
I wonder why the most radical guidelines for teaching ethnic studies in the nation are being withheld.
It's a mystery. A total mystery. I would think the Harris/Walz team would be proud to show off their education agenda. It's for the children, you see. And the children of the community belong to the community.
Kamala Harris: "The children of the community are the children of the community."

One of the obstacles to convincing people that Harris and Walz are so radical is that their public rhetoric--in carefully choreographed speeches read off teleprompters--is so greatly at variance from their actions and policies. If you listen to their speeches, you think little more than that they are vapid moderates who love the middle class.
Stupid, but not dangerous.
Stupid they are, but they are very dangerous. They are surrounded by a lot of smart people with horrible intentions. College professors, activists, and political advisors, all backed by a media propaganda machine creating a Truman Show in which it's always sunny and people are always nice.
Except mean MAGA Republicans, who all secretly wear Nazi uniforms at home and who need to be disposed of.
Behind the scenes, these people believe and even say that they hate America, hate the middle class, and that the yokels must be controlled.
As Walz said, there is nothing but "rocks and cows" outside the Blue areas.
I’m proud to be Rocks and Cows
