Ever since he was selected by the Anointed One, Kamala Harris, to be her running mate in the 2024 presidential election, Tim Walz has come in for his share of heat — and he’s pretty much had all of it coming. But, you know, it has to sting just a little more when that heat is coming from Minnesotans.
The Minnesota State Fair is going on this week, and among all the rides and vendors is the “Never Walz” booth, run by Action 4 Liberty MN, and they are giving the governor a piece of their minds — and drawing crowds while doing it.
“Never Walz,” reads a massive sign on a booth at the state fair, which has attracted long lines of people waiting to receive “Never Walz” fans and T-shirts, Fox News Digital has learned.
The booth was set up by conservative nonprofit Action 4 Liberty MN, which allows attendees of the nation’s second-largest state fair to spin a wheel to win “Never Walz” signage and apparel.
“Our amazing supporters spin the wheel for a chance at a free T-shirt and a ‘Never Walz’ fan. We’re a nonprofit organization that promotes liberty by exposing the RINOs and Leftists when they betray liberty, and we work to mobilize our grassroots army of supporters and train them on how to wield their individual political power as effectively as possible,” Action 4 Liberty leader and former Republican Minnesota state Rep. Erik Mortensen told Fox News Digital on Tuesday.
Those sound like pretty good goals to me. And Mr. Mortensen, speaking for Action 4 Liberty, has some pointed things to say about Governor Walz.
“Action 4 Liberty has been leading the effort in MN for years in exposing Gov. Walz’s thirst for power. In 2021, our state fair booth was themed ‘Never Again’ referring to Walz’ unconstitutional lockdowns, mask mandates and vaccine mandates. The booth was used to promote my ‘Never Again’ bill that would remove the governor’s ability to unilaterally declare an emergency and anoint himself the ‘King of MN.’ We Minnesotans know Walz best. He pretends to be some folksy Midwesterner, but he’s a thin-skinned, power-drunk tyrant that has destroyed our state and has repeatedly violated Minnesotan’s liberties,” Mortensen said when asked about the motivation and history behind the booth.
But wait! There’s more!
“Walz has signed legislation to strip parents of parental rights if they refuse to allow their minor children to get sex change surgeries. Walz signed the most extreme abortion bill into law that has NO limits on abortion. Because of Walz, 13-year-old girls can now get taxpayer-funded, late-term abortions in Minnesota without even telling their parents,” Mortensen said of Walz’s record.

If you want to know all about who a person really is, go to those who know him best. Minnesotans know Tim Walz, who was little-known on the national stage until recently. They know him as the governor who authorized cops to shoot paintballs at people who had the nerve to stand outside on their own front porches during the COVID-19 mess. They know him as a guy who strips parents of their rights to make medical decisions for their minor children. He’s a serial liar, about his military record and about other things as well. Minnesotans know that, and now we know it, too. Imagine what a guy like that could do on a national scale.
Granted, this booth is amusing, but on the scale of this year’s presidential election? Well, Minnesota is almost certainly going blue again anyway. The last time Minnesota went for a Republican in the Electoral College was in Richard Nixon’s 49-state landslide in 1972, and the RealClearPolitics polling average in that state has Harris leading Trump by eight points. But that doesn’t mean things like this aren’t worth doing. Any thumb poked in the collective eyes of the Harris/Walz campaign is worth the effort, and if one such thing distracts them for a few minutes, then it’s a good idea. And, as I’m fond of saying, the world’s got no shortage of windmills to tilt at.
