WATCH: 10 Times “Tampon Tim” Walz Told Us EXACTLY Who He Is

The media is trying to paint Kamala Harris’ VP pick Tim Walz as a lovable, folksy “midwestern dad.” But Glenn dug through the archives to find who Walz actually is. Glenn reviews 10 moments from Walz’s time as governor of Minnesota that prove he’s a radical socialist: He joked about investing in a “ladder factory” in response to Trump’s wall, he wants to protect trans kids’ “right” to genital mutilation, he had more COVID-19 nursing home deaths than Andrew Cuomo, he told Minnesotans to rat out their neighbors, he praised socialism as “neighborliness,” he wants no gas cars in Minnesota by 2035, his bathroom policies have garnered him the nickname “Tampon Tim,” he said it’s “ageism” to question Biden’s age, he denied shutting down schools, and he has no problem becoming a “sanctuary state” for illegal immigrants.

GLENN: Joining me today, is Pat Gray from Pat Gray Unleashed. Pat, I listened to your show today. And Chewing the Fat with Jeffy. And you guys were on quite a roll with Tim Walz. You like him about as much as I do.

PAT: Oh, man!

Hmm. He's quickly risen to the top of my list of people that I dislike with a very intense disliking.

GLENN: Sure. What do you mean? You don't like -- I didn't get that impression from you, earlier at all.

PAT: I was a little subtle. Maybe I was too settle.

GLENN: Maybe.

PAT: Because I mentioned I disliked him with all the intensity of a trillion white hot suns.

Maybe that's not enough.

GLENN: I'm not sure what you were saying with that.

Now, could it be.

Could it be because he says things like this.

Cut 11, please. Here's Tim Walz.

VOICE: And I think seeing a plan that's out there, talking about it with folks. Knowing, that he's not going to do thinking.

He talks about this wall. I always say, let me know how high it is? 25 feet, then I'll invest in the 30-foot ladder factory. That's not how you stop this.

PAT: Oh, jeez.

GLENN: Huh.

Is it because of stuff like that?

PAT: Yeah, it's stuff like that. And worse, actually. Stuff like that, and worse.

GLENN: Here's cut ten. Could it be this?

PAT: Uh-huh.

VOICE: And what we want to say, we're there to protect children. We're there to understand, in Minnesota, you're going to be protected. I want to be clear. I will never understand what goes into the thinking of these folks, to bully these children. They're not impacting them in one bit. And making it a living hell for children, for families, for adults. For folks just trying to bring themselves in.

So in Minnesota, we're making it very clear. We're not going to cooperate with these folks. We're not going to extradite people. We're going to say that this a place where you can come and make these decisions. I'm -- this is -- the community, the trans community is -- is as terrified as they've ever been. We've seen attacks across the nation, even here in Minnesota. And we're -- we're now saying, we have to be much more proactive.

We have to be much more aggressive about making sure folks are protected.

PAT: Yeah. Folks are protected in getting their noodles cut off. That kind of thing.

GLENN: Children are protected. Children have a right to have their noodles cut off. Or their breasts removed.

PAT: If they're six and don't feel comfortable. Cut off their noodle. Who am I?

Not nobody.

GLENN: Yeah. Who are you? What kind of monitor have you become? You know, I mean, it's really -- it's really, really bad.

PAT: Uh-huh.

GLENN: He's also -- you know, he was big on COVID. He was --

PAT: Yeah.

GLENN: Well, when I say he was big on that. He had more nursing home deaths in his state, than they had in New York. Under Cuomo.

PAT: Yeah.

GLENN: So, but he was -- it wasn't that he was a total dictator. It was just that he was a total authoritarian.

And locked everything down. But he went the extra mile. Here he is. Cut 28, now.

Here he is on -- on a new way, to be neighborly.
(music)

VOICE: Hello, you have reached the Department of Public Safety, stay-at-home hotline. The information you leave is considered public information. At the tone, please leave the following information. Your name, your callback number. How the stay-at-home order is being violated. And where the stay-at-home order was violated.

Thank you.

VOICE: Record your message at the tone. When you're finished, hang up and press pound for more options.

PAT: And that's, of course --

GLENN: So congratulations.

PAT: That's where you snitch on your neighbor. Hey, I just saw my neighbor pull out of their driveway. They're going somewhere. I think you need send a S.W.A.T. team right now. Please, because they left their house. They left their house.

GLENN: That's just being neighborly, isn't it?

PAT: That's all that is.

GLENN: It's just being a good neighbor. Here's cut 29.

PAT: But we can get out there, reach out, make the case. And for one thing, don't ever shy away from our progressive values.

One person's socialism is another person's neighborliness.

GLENN: Amen. Amen. Amen.

Now, they just don't understand how the left wants, you know, freedom.

And the right is just trying to take rights away.

You know, like they're not taking rights away H.W. Bush they want to take your guns.

They're not taking rights away, when they lock you in your house. And tell you, you can't go anywhere.

They're not taking any rights away. When they're saying, you have to inject this into your body.

They're not taking any rights away at all.

In fact, it's just good neighborly stuff. To be able to snitch on your neighbor.

That's so American. So folksy.

PAT: It is.

GLENN: So folksy. And not weird, I'll tell you that.

Not weird at all.

PAT: And when they tell you, that you shouldn't be driving SUVs. That doesn't -- that doesn't limit your choices on what you can drive.

Not at all.

GLENN: No. He's not taking away your right at all.

PAT: No. No.

GLENN: He's just saying, that there will be no gasoline cars in the state of -- by 35. That's all he's saying.

PAT: So is that a bad thing?

GLENN: In ten years, nobody is driving gasoline cars. Because he's also not taking your right away. He's not. He's definitely not when he says, we're going to shut down the oil industry. Giving you all kinds of choices. You can have solar panels. Or you can have, you know, wind-powered electricity.

PAT: There's two choices right there. What do you want?

GLENN: How many choices do you need, do you know what I mean? Man, it's just so crazy what people are saying about him. Now, so he's -- I would like to call him the name that people call him in the state occasionally, and that's Tampon Tim.

Which I think is very dignified, and shows what he's for, and that is: Tampons in boy's restrooms. You know, he -- you know, who are you to say, you shouldn't have -- you should use the restroom, you know, designated for the sex you were born with. That is so bigoted. So weird.

PAT: Uh-huh.

GLENN: So weird. This is folksy. You know, you have your boy, go in, and shove a tampon, up where he's bleeding.

That's normal!

PAT: Yeah.

GLENN: Hello!

PAT: If that's not Middle America, I don't know what is.

GLENN: No. No. And as he said, one man's socialism is another man's neighborliness. And, you know, when I think of a good neighbor, I think of Stalin. I think of Mao.

PAT: Yeah! Yeah.

GLENN: I think of the good neighbors that were turning Jews in, you know, in Germany.

I think of those neighbors. They were neighborly. National Socialist Party! Yeah, in Germany.

So it is -- it is. Some people would say, that's socialism, you know, where you rat on a neighbor.

Hey, there's a Jew living next door.

And other people just think that that's -- that's just neighborly. You know, that's not socialism.

It's just neighborly. And I love it.

He's also a man of truth.

If you look at cut 12 here, he was telling you the truth here the whole time. He was way ahead of the curve. Listen.

VOICE: I've spent a lot of time with the president. And he's great. We're chatting and talking. And I think we all get a little older. That's what happens.

But you also gain that insight, and I think, when it comes to those issues. Working across the aisle to get things done, you see the president just doing this with dignity, doing it with class. Getting up every day.

Doing the work. So I think he's just doing what he does, and I think it's incumbent upon all of us -- look, my mom is 88, still living on the farm, drives herself.

PAT: Is she the president though?

VOICE: Folks are able to do this. So I think this little bit of ageism that goes to this, if it's not that, it would be something else. They attack all of us on something. This is part of it.

PAT: That's right. That's all.

GLENN: Yeah. Absolutely. How folksy of him.

PAT: Yeah. Yeah.

GLENN: He's not lying there. He's just being folksy. He's just telling a story.

And it turns out, that he was absolutely right. He's totally just like his mom, able to drive his car. You know, Tim, I want you -- when you get to Washington, you're not going to need a car. Because you'll have Secret Service driving you everywhere. Why don't you just hand the could you see over to Joe, of your car. And tell them just to -- hey. Joe.

Why don't you just take it. Park it in the garage. Around the corner.

You're going to be fine.

Because I don't think. You know, his mom could drive a car.

PAT: Sure. Yeah. She's 88.

That's older than Joe. She's 88. Now, she's not running the country.

GLENN: Exactly right.

PAT: But I'm sure she has just as important a position. And it doesn't -- it doesn't mess her up at all, getting old.

GLENN: Well, I will tell you, that there's a couple of other things that I think are really, really good. There -- Minnesota, there's room in the inn.

And in fact, let me just -- let me just play Tampon Tim here, on sanctuary cities.

Cut 13, please.

VOICE: Could you have done the schools differently. I think lots of parents are upset about what happened with the schools. Do you think you could have made any other choice.

VOICE: Well, just to be clear. 80 percent of our students miss less than 10 days of in-class learning. The vast majority of students were in. It depended again on population density. Many of these positions were being made by local folks, to be able to do what was necessary to keep them there.

I think again, in hindsight, if we could have known, that we would get vaccinations out as quickly as possible.

We prioritized teachers and the staff in school to get there. We're doing it differently now.

And since, May of 2021, almost every one of our students has been in, the entire time, and been doing that.

So I think with hindsight, at 2020, perhaps we could have tailored a little bit careers than that.

The fact of the matter, making the case that we couldn't have done anything, is simply wrong.

GLENN: Yeah. Simply wrong. By the way, that was about him shutting down all of the schools, which apparently never happened, Pat.

Never happened. Let's go to cut 13, please.

And that's --

VOICE: If the definition of that is that the federal government enforces immigration law, and local laughter, enforces local law. Then yes.

VOICE: Should cities be allowed to be sanctuary cities?

VOICE: Yes. Local control.

GLENN: Local control. Local control.

PAT: Wow.

GLENN: I mean, he's not for local control on anything else. But when it comes to sanctuary cities. As he said, there is -- there is room in the inn, you know, for more Somalis and everything else.

And he has taken -- I will give you just a little track record, when we come back here, on Tim.

Because he has taken the state of Minnesota. And just, I mean, it's just taken off.

It's an entirely new state to him.

PAT: It's a rocket ride to the moon. With Tim Walz.

GLENN: You know, I think, Pat. Now, you can disagree with me.

But I think you put a team together, like Kamala Harris.

From California.

PAT: Uh-huh.

GLENN: And bring in those California things right to America.

And then tampon Tim's Minnesota -- what he's done to that state.

My gosh. I mean, America is fixed.

PAT: Imagine kind of on a nationwide kale.

GLENN: Yeah. My dog is fixed as well. But it's going to be -- it's going to be fantastic.

GLENN: Now, J.D. Vance is weird.

Because he went to Yale.

And, you know, Walz said, look, I grew up in a small town, and its small town values.

And he said, yeah. J.D. Vance grew up in a small town, but he eventually attended Yale Law School. J.D. Vance talks about this in Hillbilly Elegy.

None of my hillbilly cousins went to Yale. Yeah, maybe because your hillbilly cousins either don't have the aptitude or the interest to go to Yale.

I mean, Yale is really not for everybody. You know, not everybody has to go to Yale. In fact, a lot of people would really hate Yale. I for one, went to Yale. And hate Yale. But gosh darn it, I just -- I won't give any money to Yale.

Why not?

Man, I'm weird. Anyway, J.D. Vance worked hard. That's something called meritocracy. And that doesn't happen in socialist countries.

No. Everybody has an equal outcome. Everyone is equally miserable. Well, I shouldn't say that.

Except for the people at the very top. They tend to get very, very rich and powerful. And not so folksy. You know, not quite so folksy.

So J.D. Vance just doesn't know anything about small-town America.

Because, you know, he went to Yale, after his.

Yeah. Yeah. He did. He earned a scholarship

Because he decided to work hard. He made that choice. You should watch the video or read the book. It's really interesting. Tampon Tim.

THE GLENN BECK PODCAST

Is the EU Plotting to “SABOTAGE” Trump? Heritage Foundation President Sounds Warning

Are European Union elites working to “sabotage” President Trump’s plans for the West? Glenn speaks with Heritage Foundation president Kevin Roberts, who makes the case that Trump is trying to reset the West and stop the “managed decline” of the World Economic Forum’s Great Reset. But many European leaders are so embedded into that old system that they won’t go down without a fight. Glenn and Kevin also discuss Trump’s negotiations with Mexico and Canada, whether former UK Prime Minister Liz Truss was right to call Britain a “failed state,” and why Kevin believes Trump’s cabinet, JD Vance, and one other thing are Trump’s biggest wins.

Tim Kennedy Unveils Grim Truth: World Instability and Christian Killings Surge

Former U.S. Army Special Forces Sniper Tim Kennedy joins Glenn to warn that “real instability” is coming across many parts of the world, including the Middle East, Haiti, Congo, and other parts of Africa. And one of the main signs of this is “the killing of Christians” at high levels in those regions. With a civil war brewing in Afghanistan, “genocide” level attacks in regions of Africa, and more trouble on the horizon, predictive models have found that things could very likely boil over soon. But Kennedy details how the Trump administration, especially Tulsi Gabbard, Kash Patel, and Pam Bondi, are working overtime to “get ahead of what we know is coming” and keep Americans safe.

GLENN: We're talking to Tim Kennedy. Talking to the president about the border, and what's going on with the border this week. And I said, you know, if I were, you know, a Mexican citizen. And knowing that my government was in bed with the cartels. I would be hoping that some special forces just showed up in the middle of the night. And started killing people. In these cartels. And I said, well, that would be news breaking if I said that was a good idea.

You know, I hope it doesn't come to that. It was clear, that that is on the table. I mean, that really has to happen. Does it not?

I mean, that is a collapsed narco state in Mexico. Isn't it?

MATT: Yeah, we -- the rules of war that we'll be experiencing for the next five to ten years are not the traditional maneuver warfare that people remember from Korea and from Vietnam, and from even -- you know, we know who our enemy is. These are going to be businesses.

These are syndicated criminal organizations, that do not fight fair, and the cartel owns both the businesses, the corporations, and the criminal networks that are involved in that.

So, yes. It's absolutely on the table. And a group of people that are sitting on like the go button, are absolute savages, Mr. Beck.

GLENN: They are. I know some of them. I know some of them.

And they're just like -- and they're just -- they're just champing at the bit to go, I know. I know.

TIM: That's the truth.

We're in conversation with the cartels right now. And the cartels are saying, hey, we don't want to die. We don't want to be wiped off the face of the planet, which we know is not going to happen. So, you know, are there other options. Hey, what if we stopped human trafficking?

What if we stopped fentanyl production entirely?

What if -- what if all of that just goes away. What if we stop and seal the border on the south side. What are you -- will we maybe be allowed to transport some cocaine and some marijuana?

I'm totally fine with this. If we stop fentanyl. Human trafficking. Gun smuggling. And we stop the invasion of our border, I'll -- and we don't have to do a while bunch of killing.

You know, whatever.

But they know they're on the brink of --

GLENN: I hope they do.

TIM: Of existence.

GLENN: I hope they do.

You know, when you look at what's happening here.

And what they're bringing over here.

I mean, it has to stop, dead in its tracks.

It has to stop.

And it has to stop soon. The president is dealing with these courts. Which I just think is judicial insurrection as Mike Lee puts it. And it has to stop.

The president has to protect our borders, and has to protect our cities. This is -- you know, this is the opium wars, done to China by the English.

You know, 200 years ago. 150 years ago. And now they're doing it to us.

That's what -- that's what is happening.

TIM: Yeah.

GLENN: Tell me about the Christians and genocide, that you believe is on the horizon.

TIM: Just yesterday.

Back at the White House yesterday.

Listening to some brief about -- there's some brilliant companies that are able to do predictive modeling.

Using literally every public and classified source of information.

And there's these events that are pretty predictable.

You know, they predicted what would happen in Afghanistan. Predicted what would happen in Ukraine.

They see regionally that on the very near horizon, as soon as like late summer.

We are going to see real instability throughout CENTCOM and the Endo-Pacific region.
And some of those things -- some of the catalysts that are -- the data points are what are the killing of Christians.

And it's happening all over CENTCOM.

And --

GLENN: Explain CENTCOM. Explain CENTCOM for anybody who doesn't what CENTCOM means. Explain that.

TIM: Just imagine the Middle East starting kind of in north Africa.

And western Asia. And everything that has lots of deserts. And lots of Muslim countries -- just -- by coincidence, there's also Israel. That's in CENTCOM.

One of the few non-Muslim democracies, in that whole entire region.

Ask, you know, the Houthis and Hamas. And Hezbollah.

And then in former countries, like in Syria and Iraq, Afghanistan, those places, it's just a massacre of Christians, right now.

GLENN: So let me take a one-minute break.

Come back, because I want to talk to you more about that. Because you've been involved. We've been with you with Mercury One, and trying to help. And I know what we're gearing up for.

And I want to see if there's anything that you need and you would recommend, besides told prayers for Christians.

And I want to go deeper into what this predictive model is showing in just a second.

First, let me tell you about Preborn.

You know, if you were in the room with a woman who was thinking about giving up her baby.

What would you say?

If a scared young woman looked you in the eye and said, I don't think I could do this.

I'm alone. I don't know if it's really a baby yet.

What would you do?

Would you yell at her? Would you say, you can't do that! You'll go to hell.

Or would you tell her, you're strong enough. You are. Show her pictures of your kids maybe. Talk about miracles?

Talk about God? Talk about anything?

Anything. We're here for you. Would you just wait.

None of us would show her pictures of an aborted baby. None of us would yell at her.

Okay? The truth is, we'll never be in that room. Most of us. But Preborn will not be in that room. They don't argue or shame.

They do something really simple. It turns out, it's very persuasive. Just offer her a free ultrasound. And when she hears that tiny heartbeat. When she sees the image on the screen, everything changes. More than half the time the mom chooses life, the rest of the time, she's like, I -- I just -- I'm alone. I can't afford.

And that's where they come in, after that. They take care of mom. This saves two lives. This saves the life of torture for that woman, and the baby's life.

Please, donate your best gift today.

Go to #250. Say the key word baby for Preborn. It's #250. Key word baby. You know, just a few bucks pays for an ultrasound, and it just changes lives. Saves lives. Preborn.com/Beck. Sponsored by he Preborn. Preborn.com/Beck. Ten-second station ID.
(music)

GLENN: So, Tim, maybe we'll have you on -- we're doing a big benefit for the Nazarene Fund.

This fall.

I don't even have details on it. I just heard about it yesterday.

What that is, we go and rescue Christians. Or we pay and help people like you, go rescue Christians.

We just empower people like you, to help.

I would love to invite to that. When we get closer, I will.

Tell me about this predictive model. Why is it saying that it's going to get so bad? What's coming our way?

TIM: Yeah.

The Nazarene Fund, and Mercury One, just for -- love you guys.

I don't -- you know, we publicly can't say a lot of the things that we do at save our allies.

But none of it is possible without you, quite frankly.

Like if you look at me, and our team in Afghanistan. Or in Ukraine. Providing humanitarian aid. And pulling people out of the war zones.

Although to the Far East, as far as I possibly can get in far Russia.

Every place that we have been, has been because of you, quite frankly. Mr. Beck.

GLENN: Please. Stop calling me Mr. Beck.

Give credit. This audience is so gracious. They are so gracious.

TIM: Yeah. They just have an understanding.

Samaritan purse. Mercury One. Nazarene Fund.

We see you guys every single place, in the worst, most dire condition. So, you know, Glenn, thank you so much.

To your question, you know, we are -- if you just look in the past month, you know, you can look to Syria. You can look to the -- next to our bill.

You can look to the Congo.

Where you see thousands of Christians being killed.

You see Muslim converts, that were being specifically targeted. Down in Congo just last week.
Another 29 Christians were killed. In 2025, in like the region in Syria. There was like this region of violence. Another thousand were killed.

And so if you take -- if we're going to look for similar areas in the region, and try to predict the instability of a particular administration or government.

There's a whole bunch of -- and we can take historical data from the past 50 years. And start looking at, okay.

Economically, what is happening for instability?

What is happening culturally?

What is happening on -- in the markets?

What's happening in like -- really clear data points. And we have this bell curve of what's normal. And then you have these outliers that are -- that then keep occurring, every time there's a coup. Or every time there's genocide.

Or every time -- and there's enough data now, where we -- especially with AI. And we can scrape all of history.

We can then very accurately start, you know -- all the special operations side. I'm trying to find somebody in space and time.

It's -- that's -- used to be a difficult thing, to predict where a human is going to be.

So I could maybe bring them to justice, and if we look at the first 95 days of the president in office, and our intelligence community specifically, that told them they're going to work. With, you know, Kash Patel, enabling them. Pam Bondi.
45 Americans that have been illegally detained abroad brought home.

You know, we're knocking on the door of 100 radical terrorists, want to do harm to Americans. Dead.

And we are trying to get ahead of what we know is coming. Which is, complete near Civil War in Afghanistan.

Trying to get stability in Congo -- obviously, we see what's happening in Haiti.

And every time one of these places starts becoming less secure and stable, that is the breeding ground for radical adversarial groups, that are funded by our adversaries, like and mine Iran.

To then conduct attacks on Americans.

But they're not doing it direct.

It's like via proxy.

But Haiti, if we don't pay attention to it, China will use it.

Congo will --

GLENN: Yeah, I know.

TIM: And it just keeps happening.

GLENN: Tim, I can't thank you enough for what you do. You're really a remarkable man. It was such an honor to see you at the White House.

And as usual, see you at the White House and you're serving. Serving veterans.

So thank you for everything, Tim.

God bless you.

TIM: Yeah, you're amazing. Always in your corner. Let me know what you need.

GLENN: You've got it. Thank you, Tim Kennedy. US Army Special Forces. He's a sniper. Former UFC fighter, and really a servant to our vets.

Next year, it's going to be a tough year. All the way around us the world.

It's going to be very tough. What he's saying, is coming.

I -- you know, people say, I think Donald Trump will say for a reason, to save the republic. I'm not sure, that we understand God's mind.

It may have just been to postpone and give us more time to prepare. I'm not sure.

I hope we save the republic. But it might be time to prepare. Because things are very, very dicey in the world, and we just need to be prayerful.

Thoughtful. Jesus-like people.

THE GLENN BECK PODCAST

Will Violent Activists Go to Jail? DOJ’s Harmeet Dhillon UNLEASHED | The Glenn Beck Podcast | Ep 255

Is there really a “bloodbath” in the Civil Rights Division of the Department of Justice? Harmeet Dhillon, assistant attorney general for civil rights at the DOJ, joins Glenn to discuss firebombing at Christian churches, “violence” against free speech, and the fate of the innocent people persecuted under the Biden administration. Harmeet reveals how the FACE Act doesn’t just protect abortion centers but pro-life pregnancy centers as well, says it’s time for violent activists to be prosecuted, and explains why “you don’t have to sue everybody.” Then, she and Glenn break down anti-Semitism on college campuses, her focus on the Second Amendment, and her advice to Congress to prevent a repeat of COVID-19 government tyranny.
