The Minnesota governor unexpectedly announced this month that he wouldn’t run for re-election.
Walz had said this month that he would not seek re-election as governor — sending shock waves through state and national politics — but he did not go so far as to say he would not consider another elected position down the line.
In explaining his decision Wednesday, Walz talked about the scenes unfolding in Minneapolis between residents and federal officers. He said he found that there are “heroes on the streets that we don’t know their names.”
“They’re never going to run for office, and those grass-tops leaders brought this administration to their knees this week to do something about it. So there’s other ways to serve, and I’ll find them,” he said.



To be honest good. The way he folded on every single one of the things he claimed to believe in during his run for VP turned me off to every wanting to see him hold significant power.
This man is a fake progressive bootlicker of the state. Sent in the National Guard to protect people brutalizing and executing his citizens. A feckless waste of space.
I anticipate down votes because the liberals are going to talk about some modest reforms he got in place. But did any of the systems actually change? Do you trust someone who is letting you get murdered in the streets to run your state? I expect pearl clutching by liberals at my statement but the deference to this man should be killed now. He is not your ally. He does not care about you.
Tim got women tampons, that excuses the fascist murderers he refuses to do anything about. He’s a good man.
I don’t even know how to engage with this comment what an insane thing to say.
He is literally using his power as governor to defend these ICE thugs because he is a feckless democrat who has no theory of how to change this country for the better unless it is incremental and within the bounds of what our corporate overlords have authorized.
