Tim Walz’s ‘Mind Your Own Business’ Jab at GOP at Odds With His Draconian COVID Stances
“In Minnesota, we respect our neighbors and their personal choices that they make. Even if we wouldn’t make the same choice for ourselves, there’s a golden rule, mind your own damn business.”
Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz has been a trainwreck VP pick for presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris, as evidenced by troubling details emerging about his military service claims, which have sparked “stolen valor” allegations from other veterans.
“Well, I wonder, Tim Walz, when were you ever in war?” GOP vice presidential nominee JD Vance, a Marine who served as a military journalist in Iraq, asked during a press gaggle Tuesday, as Legal Insurrection reported. “When was this — what was this weapon that you carried into war, given that you abandoned your unit right before they went to Iraq and he has not spent a day in a combat zone?”
Walz has since taken heat over a statement he made during his debut as Harris’ pick during their Philadelphia rally, where he declared that Democrats, unlike Republicans, abided by the “golden rule” of “mind your own damn business.”
“Some of us are old enough to remember when it was Republicans who were talking about freedom,” Walz stated as Harris looked on. “It turns out now what they meant was the government should be free to invade your doctor’s office.”
Moments later, Walz proclaimed “In Minnesota, we respect our neighbors and their personal choices that they make. Even if we wouldn’t make the same choice for ourselves, there’s a golden rule, mind your own damn business.”

The problem here is that Walz’s record on that so-called “golden rule” is quite clear, and like most Democrats, he’s anything but a “mind your own damn business” type:
Conservative activists have pushed back on Walz’s self-characterization, pointing to his track record on issues such as COVID-19 lockdowns, parental rights, and more.
“He should take some of his own advice, because during COVID not only did he lock down schools and mask children, he encouraged neighbors to snitch on each other if they were taking their kid to the playground,” said Tiffany Justice, Moms for Liberty co-founder.
Conservatives on the Twitter/X machine also weighed in:
Walz set up Covid snitch service👇during Covid medical tyranny so neighbors could rat each other out for having dinner parties, but sure “mind your own damn business.”

"In Minnesota we respect our neighbors and the personal choices they make."
Guy set up snitch line to report neighbors exercising in parks and buying non-essential candy bars.
It sounds like Democrats don't know what they're saying because they still won't admit what they did. https://t.co/bHlfzdwEWs

“Mind your own damn business,” says the guy who set up a COVID hotline so people could tattle on their neighbors for playing sports in the park, and who threatened violators with $1,000 fines & jail time. Whatever your politics, that never made sense. Miss me with this. https://t.co/t4rZPPdIs4

“Mind your own damn business” except when mostly peaceful rioters are literally burning it down.
“Mind your own damn business” but here’s a covid snitch line to report on your neighbors.
“Mind your own damn business” but we’re going to trans your kids without your consent. https://t.co/Pmw0iBsPZL

Remember, too, that “One person’s socialism is another person’s neighborliness,” according to Walz:
“One person’s socialism is another person's neighborliness.”

When all is said and done, Walz may go down in history as one of the worst vice presidential picks ever made – right alongside Kamala Harris.

“One person’s socialism is another person’s neighborliness,”
I will need a very large fence.
What a freaken liar
Nothing new however, business as usual
We could pay off the national debt if we set up a raffle where the winners got to smack this stupid, smug c*nt right in his co*ksucking mouth.

Vile Walz is such a transparent hypocrite, like all Dhimmi-crat apparatchiks.
He spouts propaganda about his political mantra allegedly being the midwestern credo of people minding their own business, when he and his wretched party of totalitarian apparatchiks constantly hand down obnoxious and tyrannical diktats telling people what foods they can eat, what cars they can drive, what subject matter their kids are taught, what kinds of straws and shopping bags they can use, what kind of energy American companies can produce; etc., etc.
Here I was thinking neighborliness is when you use your own resources to help out your neighbor when he might need a bit of a hand. I didn’t think neighborliness was when the government comes and steals from you in order to give that to someone who didn’t work for it
To Democrats, minding your own business applies only to killing your unborn baby. Otherwise…smile for the telescreen, citizen.
