I understand that this rumour is very inconvenient for some. We will see whether there is any substance to it.
The likelihood of there being any truth to this rumor is very low - because there are zero other allegations, he has been vetted several times and has been in the public eye quite a bit - when he was chosen I predicted they would connect him to Jerry Sandusky on these boards. Either way, it will give Trump something to talk about other than tracking down immigrants and deporting them. Even with zero substance, it isn't good for Harris - but hard to know how much impact it will really have other than being red meat for those already voting for Trump. If I were a major network - I would reach out to Newt Gingrich and ask him how it feels to **** and marry his high school teacher - he has been through that.
No, because I really don't know. I have no opinion of my own yet on whether I believe all of this or some of it or none of it. But the rumour is out there, Walz can choose to react or not to react, maybe the alleged victim will come forward, as was said he would - it's newsworthy at this point, I think.
If there was verification of anything, it might be. Again if there is credible evidence, then arrest him. I haven't seen anything credible.
Suffice it to say, that account and its posts have a number of red flags. From what I can gather after a quick skim, Walz and his wife, both teachers at the school at the time, were supporting a kid who was being bullied in school for being gay.
So no credible evidence over a rumor that wasn’t even brought up in any of his other races. But hey least throw it out anyway!
That Hunter Biden laptop was an unfounded conspiracy also. I know because the same people told us so here.
Also Hunter Biden’s laptop has never been the bombshell that the Right things it is. They couldn’t even get an impeachment vote in a Republican house over it.
I'll just wait for confirmation or invalidation of the rumour. I neither regard the original tweets as gospel nor propaganda articles which try to bury the rumour.
The other thing I am interested in finding out more about are Walz's and @rocketsjudoka's connections to the CCP lol.
Yep me and Tim Walz are agents of the CcP. We’re having our weekly lunch today at Mandarin Kitchen in Bloomington.
So I don’t believe it but I’m just going to post it. and you wonder why our politics and culture are so messed up.
The appropriate reaction to a Twitter rumor from an account like the one you posted is to assume it’s BS until there is confirmation from a legitimate source. That’s how social media works. It amplifies unfounded BS from bad actors. Just because you see it all over your feed from accounts with little blue checks next to them, don’t mistake that for thinking there is some legitimacy to it.
Maybe and is why I left it alone in August and thought if it comes up again then maybe there is some truth, so I'm thinking there is. But in today's time, "legitimate" sources are often slow or there are legitimate sources people dismiss if they don't like the story coming out. One big example was the throwing water police shooting. Everybody here in the DD was saying she didnt throw water and the shooter didn't have his body cam on (because that's what the legit news sources said right), until I posted the bodycam of the cop who shot showing the water being thrown. Then all the posts here was "oh we heard his cam was off". I say that to say, don't just dismiss something because you dont like the source or outcome. Look into it more instead if you got the time
You are thinking there is some truth to it? Let's get it on record now. Also the cop that shot the woman with the water was wrong and that cop is a criminal. His body can footage didn't change that.
This article provides some background on Walz and his time as a teacher supporting gay students. It’s from August: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/08/20/...ytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare
Sure he is but people here including yourself were saying "she never threw water" and "his body cam was off" because your favorite legit news sources said this but the truth was she did throw the water and his body cam was on. This is an example of why I don't need to wait for a "legit" news sources to tell me if a story is true or not because they put too much spin on things and often times are wrong.
That it comes up again in the month before the election on some social media account with all kinds of red flags really shouldn’t sway anyone into thinking there is some truth to it. The whole point of this is to manipulate gullible people into thinking “maybe he’s a pedophile”. Wait for a legit source or for the student(s) in question to come out with accusations against Walz. All I’ve seen so far from actual gay students was that Walz was a friend and supporter. In our political climate, being kind and supportive of gay students is enough reason to demonize a teacher.
