Sen. Ted Cruz Runs a Mean Pick 6 After Tim Walz Throws a Self-Unaware ‘Freedom’ Brag Up for Grabs – Twitchy

One of the positive signs for the Republican Party moving forward is that Minnesota governor and former Kamala Harris running mate Tim Walz seems determined to remain on the national political scene. Walz also dabbles in unintentional comedy, as evidenced by this post in which he pretends to be all about freedom: 

Texans, flee the nanny state and come up north to enjoy the land of the free. https://t.co/HUu3HXPyCi

Remember when Walz was totally relating to the average midwestern male demographic ahead of the 2024 election by playing Madden football with AOC and said she could “run a mean pick 6”? Walz sure does know his sportsball!

In any case, Sen. Ted Cruz provided a couple of reminders as to why Walz should give his “freedom state” brag a rest: 

Tim, you let your state burn to the ground as you opened a hotline to encourage Minnesotans to snitch on each other for not wearing a mask.

Sit the “free state” debate out. https://t.co/prJ3ZkAjW7

The only thing Walz made absolutely sure people were “free” to do in his state was to burn down a Minneapolis police station while his wife enjoyed the scent of the riot smoke wafting through the windows of their home. 

This is like Newsom bragging about California.

Tim “snitch line” Walz has either zero shame or zero self-awareness. Perhaps both.
