Will the real Tim Walz please stand up?

Mainstream media portray Tim Walz as a folksy white Midwesterner liable to blush and gush "golly gee, shucks" at a compliment, or as a benign grandfather open to friendly debate on his front porch.
But, despite the media hype and his skinning and grinning on the campaign stage, there's no doubt Kamala Harris' 60-year-old running mate is a radically-aggressive progressive – a candidate scary to the extreme for any God-fearing voter.
"Tim Walz is doing whiteface in a reverse minstrel show where Kamala is the high status person for whom he's performing a travesty of his low status tribe. Total cultural op to formalize white humiliation." – Jack Posobiec, political commentator
On no issue is Walz's extremism clearer than on the wholesale murder of unborn babies.
When he ran for governor of Minnesota in 2018, Walz actually bragged that he's so pro-abortion, Democratic kingmaker Nancy Pelosi – herself a radical pro-abort – recommended he moderate his stance.
"My record is so pro-choice Nancy Pelosi asked me if I should tone it down," he said. "I stand with Planned Parenthood."
Some months prior to being tapped as the Dem's VP candidate, Walz stood at Harris' side as she visited a Planned Parenthood facility in Minnesota as part of her so-called "Fight for Reproductive Freedom Tour."
Harris waxed on about a supposed "reproductive health care crisis" while afterward, to CNN, Walz pontificated in a fashionably self-deprecating way about how "old white men" need to learn how to talk about the murder of unborn babies "a little more."
Pro-lifers denounced the visit as the "normalization of evil."
"Tim Walz is an abortion fanatic." – Emily Erin Davis, Susan B. Anthony Pro-life America
After a tenure as a seemingly wholesome high school social studies teacher and football coach, from 2007-2019, Walz represented Minnesota's 1st Congressional District in the US House of Representatives. Since 2019, he has served as governor of the North Star State. Over that period, Minnesota's GOP gradually lost its grip on abortion policy.
"But if anyone is a pro-abortion extremist, it's Tim Walz. He removes any pretense that Democrats are the moderates on this issue." – Michael J. New, National Review
In January 2023, Walz enthusiastically signed the Protect Reproductive Options Act (PRO Act).
The PRO Act – Dems have a penchant for making hellish things sound positive – set into Minnesota law a "fundamental right to ... obtain an abortion" at all stages of pregnancy for any reason and prevents local governments from limiting it.
Midwestern Minnesota is one of seven states, plus Washington, DC, that allow abortions throughout all nine months of pregnancy for any reason.
BUH-BYE 'INFORMED CONSENT'
In May 2023, Walz signed yet another deleterious bill cutting deeper into his state's remaining pro-life protections.
Among other things, the bill chipped away at "informed consent" clauses that protected abortion-minded women and their unborn children.
One section of the bill redefined "medically necessary" abortions to include those "determined to be medically necessary by the treating provider," disempowering the mother and child in favor of a "provider."
It also deleted language that confirmed the expecting mother voluntarily agrees to the abortion, i.e., that "the patient has given her consent to the abortion in writing unless the patient is physically or legally incapable of providing informed consent to the procedure."
Walz's bill also repealed a section, previously built into Minnesota law, that made it unlawful to perform abortions without a woman being given "a full explanation of the procedure and effect of the abortion."
In other words, in Grandfather Walz's post-2023 Minnesota, no longer are pregnant women seeking an abortion required to be told of the medical dangers and risks of abortion, or of their rights to receive state assistance or child support from fathers.
Add to that change the stipulation that "if you are under the age of 18 and seeking 'abortion care,' you do not need to notify your parents or legal guardians." As one pro-lifer put it, "His [Walz's] law is so radical, he even stripped parental consent, so a minor can get an abortion without their parents ever knowing."
INFANTICIDE
Prior to Walz assuming the gubernatorial reins, Minnesota law required a physician to be on hand to save the life of a baby born alive after an attempted abortion.
The legislation on the books since 1976 read: "All reasonable measures consistent with good medical practice … shall be taken to preserve the life and health of the child."
But, the bill Walz signed into law in 2023 revised the phrase from "to preserve the life and health of the child" to "to care for the infant who is born alive."
The change from "preserve" to "care" rightly elicited condemnation from pro-lifers, who understand the new legislation allows a baby – who already has survived the agony of a murder attempt – to be denied appropriate lifesaving measures.
As many point out, "care" can be interpreted to simply mean "providing a blanket."
Further eroding pro-life protections and diminishing accountability, the law repealed requirements for keeping records of instances when children were born alive after a botched abortion.
In 2016 – before Walz was at the gubernatorial helm – Minnesota's abortion-reporting requirements were ranked by the Charlotte Lozier Institute, a pro-life research organization, as the second best in the country.
The reports included valuable information about the number of babies who survived abortion attempts and what treatment they received. In one fell swoop, Walz put an end to the reporting.
"There's absolutely nothing 'benign' or 'charming' about who Walz is or what he's doing." – online commenter
Walz also put the kibosh on funding for pregnancy centers, once famously telling Planned Parenthood staff during a visit to one of their abortuaries, "I've got your back."
The governor and his Democrat pro-death cronies eliminated Positive Alternatives, a popular grant program that provided over $3 million to pregnancy resource centers throughout Minnesota and helped women who had decided against abortion, aiding them before, during and after giving birth.
Indeed, in late 2022, state attorney general Democrat Keith Ellison issued a "consumer warning" against pregnancy resource centers saying they are "private organizations" and that "the information about abortion and contraception they offer may be inaccurate or misleading."
WALZ'S ABORTION 'SANCTUARY'
Pro-abort Minnesotans tout their state's abortion refuge reputation with women traveling from other states to take advantage of Walz's radical, anything-goes (except pro-life) abortion policies.
"Before the Dobbs decision ... I'd often care for patients from nearby states like the Dakotas or Wisconsin," said the chief medical officer at Planned Parenthood North Central States, which performs 70% of the abortions in Minnesota.
"But now, for the first time ever, I regularly care for patients from Texas, Alabama, Wyoming, Oklahoma, Louisiana, and the list goes on and on."
The number of abortions, i.e., the death toll of unborn babies, in Minnesota has risen almost 36% since the overturning of Roe v. Wade in June 2022, according to some reports.
"Walz is a ridiculous but wicked & dangerous wh*re – the problem is too many white folk think he's totally noblesse oblige &, therefore, ultimately harmless or even on their side." – online commenter
In light of his radical promotion of the murdering of the unborn, of doing all he has done to make abortion available to as many women as possible inside and outside Minnesota, Walz's over-animated antics and exaggerated jubilance on stage, with and for Harris, take on a morbid and macabre quality.
It could rightly be seen as a hideous performance — a dance of death.
Who is this man feigning propriety and popularity? More importantly who would vote for such a candidate knowing his pro-death agenda?

Kamala Harris represents the most extreme left wing of a Democrat party already captured by anti-Christian, Marxist elements. Throughout the run-up to the election, Souls and Liberty will be sounding the alarm against her candidacy and arming you with the information you need to take action in the public square to stop the takeover of our republic, and even Western Civilization.
The Ds celebrate abortion, pedophelia, and school control of children - out of the hands of their parents it has to remain for their vise grip to continue.
The first 'female' president could be the very face of the destruction of the USA's future; the children.
