Just when you thought it couldn't get any weirder.
Just some of Donald Trump and JD Vance’s weirdest campaign moments (so far) Between the sexist blather and weird moments, Donald Trump and JD Vance have left lots of Minnesotans feeling a little…unnerved.
See you at the state fair.
People from all of the country are flocking to Minnesota for so many reasons... we just get it.
🏆 We’re out here collecting medals like it’s nobody’s business. We’ve racked up more Olympic gold than entire countries.
Thanks to Governor Tim Walz, students in Minnesota can now enjoy free universal school meals. How do they feel about it? Their faces say it all.
From a high school Geography teacher to the Vice Presidential nominee! Governor Tim Walz remembers where he came from, and so do his former students.
As Governor of Minnesota, Tim Walz doesn't just talk the talk. He walks the walk.
Here's a look at some of the biggest accomplishments he can take with him on the VP campaign trail.
WARNING: Trump's extreme agenda is coming for your reproductive rights! As president, Donald Trump overturned Roe V. Wade and now he plans to enact Project 2025's far right policies, including banning abortion pills and IVF. With our reproductive freedoms on the line, it’s more important than ever that we tell Donald Trump and J.D. Vance to keep their dangerous, anti-choice policy agenda out of Minnesota. Read the rest of the blog to learn how to help us hold conservatives accountable.
Donald Trump Will Enact Many of Project 2025's Extreme Policies Donald Trump accepted the nomination as the Republican candidate for president and outlined his agenda that includes rolling back reproductive rights nationwide, cutting taxes for large corporations, and enacting many of the far-right goals of Project 2025.
Governor Tim Walz is the official running mate of Vice President Kamala Harris! And he's bringing his love for Minnesota food on the campaign trail. We couldn't be more proud ❤️
"Kamala Harris, herself a rare politician who is good with food, may have considered the appeal of two food-loving candidates on the ballot. (It doesn’t hurt that Walz also has his stamp on significant actual food policies, like guaranteeing free universal school breakfast and lunch.) Back in Minnesota, meanwhile, we’ll be waiting to see if Juicy Lucys and tater tot hotdish ascend into the national culinary spotlight, now that Walz has been selected as VP."
VP Pick Tim Walz Can’t Stop Name-Dropping Midwestern Food The Minnesota governor is stumping for Harris, sure — but he’s also stumping for cheese-stuffed Lucys and hotdish
Throwback to when Governor Tim Walz, in a single day, signed three major bills into law that:
✅ Protect people seeking or providing abortions in Minnesota
✅ Ban the harmful practice of conversion “therapy”
✅ Protect access to gender-affirming health care
Vice President Kamala Harris announced Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her presidential running mate! Governor Walz has a nation-leading record of protecting abortion rights, holding corporations accountable, and putting families first.
We couldn't be more thrilled. Congratulations, Governor!
