Tim Walz Claims America Was Stolen ‘By Fascists And ‘Nazis’

Former vice presidential candidate and Democratic Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz was caught claiming that America is being stolen by “fascists and Nazis,” according to an alleged recording of his statements.

Walz defended the Democratic Party’s loudprotests against President Donald Trump and Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) overseer Elon Musk by stating that his party wants to protect the U.S. from so-called “Nazis,” according to a recording obtained by Alpha News. The outlet claimed to have received the recording from Republican Minnesota State Sen. Nate Wesenberg, who said the remarks were made at a Minnesota Nurses Association event.

“I see the pundits on TV , ‘what’s wrong with the Democratic Party?’ What’s wrong is our country is being stolen by fascists and Nazis and we’re trying to do all we can to try and that,” Walz said according to the recording.

Walz, who was former Vice President Kamala Harris’ running mate in the 2024 presidential election, has previously invoked the Nazis when talking about Trump and Musk. He accused Musk in January of performing a Nazi salute during the inaugural parade at the Capitol One Arena in Washington, D.C., which Musk himself has repeatedly denied.

“We spent three days, you know, having them try to debate whether President Musk gave a Nazi salute,” Walz told MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow during a Jan. 28 segment. “Of course he did. But that is a distraction.”
