Minnesota Gov. Walz’s ‘Small Town PAC’ Draws Mockery Amid Fraud Scandal, Foreign Criticism

There’s an old rule in small-town America: if a man burns your barn down, you don’t let him bid on the rebuild. Somebody should pass that along to Tim Walz.

It’s been a rough stretch for Minnesota’s governor — though “rough” might be generous. The former high school football coach turned congressman turned 2024 Democratic vice presidential nominee has spent the last year and a half watching his political brand curdle in real time. The massive fraud scandal on his watch — billions in taxpayer dollars siphoned through sham daycare operations — eventually forced him to abandon his re-election bid.

When Minnesota Republicans tried to impeach him and Attorney General Keith Ellison over it, Democratic legislators closed ranks and killed the effort. So much for accountability.

Then came the overseas tour. Just weeks ago, Walz appeared at a leftist political forum in Spain and called President Trump a “feeble-minded, trigger-happy president” who “plunged us into a war where no threat was present.” He labeled the Iran conflict “fascist-curious.”

This while American servicemembers were actively deployed. There was a time when politicians understood you don’t trash a sitting commander-in-chief on foreign soil during military operations. Walz apparently missed that day in class.

So what does a governor with collapsing rural approval ratings, a fraud scandal around his neck, a state that fought federal immigration enforcement at every turn, and a fresh reputation for badmouthing his country abroad do next? He launches a political action committee called the “Small Town PAC.”

You read that correctly. The man whose progressive policies drove rural Minnesota voters away in historic numbers now wants to be the Democrat Party’s ambassador to small-town America.
