Holocaust Memorial Museum Lambasts Walz for Anne Frank Comparison 

The 🏛️United States Holocaust Memorial Museum took issue with comments Minnesota Gov. 👤Tim Walz (D) made when he compared United States 🛂Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers to Nazis.

The governor claimed the next “Anne Frank” would be a little girl in Minnesota threatened with deportation, per the Daily Wire.

The museum posted its response on X where it said Walz’s words went too far.

“Anne Frank was targeted and murdered solely because she was Jewish. Leaders making false equivalencies to her experience for political purposes is never acceptable,” the museum posted. “Despite tensions in 📍Minneapolis, exploiting the Holocaust is deeply offensive, especially as antisemitism surges.”

At a recent press conference following a fatal shooting involving Border Patrol agents, Walz said, “We have got children in Minnesota hiding in their houses, afraid to go outside. Many of us grew up reading that story of Anne Frank. Somebody is going to write that children’s story about Minnesota.”
