Walz: Here in Minnesota, freedom means several things. It means freedom from hunger and poverty. That means freedom to worship or not. It means the freedom to be who you are anyway you choose, and that is a birthright..

May Day, May Day General Strike-5/1/25!
Shut it all down, unions wobble, airlines, manufacturing, retail, trucking, transportation, shipping! tRump, vAnts, johnson must resign.
It’s the freedom to worship—or not—and to live your truth unapologetically. That’s not a privilege. That’s your birthright. And when we protect that for one another, we all rise.
He could’ve been replacing that with “Here in the US …”, but too many people we once called “fellow Americans” fell for the lies. I feel like we don’t even know our country anymore.
And that good and simple message drives the right wingers nuts. What a shame that those 'pros' from the Dem party tamped down this man's good message, and got Harris to 'stick with Biden' and campaign with Liz to try to 'reach out' to those imaginary 'reasonable' Republicans.

Absolutely, anti-democracy conservative rhetoricians have been having a field day playing with terms like "freedom" and "liberty," it's time others got involved, because terms like that mean nothing with the details, whose freedom, to do what, and how are affected others involved?
I almost became one! And on this short yet accurate post by Anita, I bid all my fellow Liberals a very good night. Tomorrow we continue the resistance and fight on!
It angers me to my very core that he’s not our VP right now. Instead we’ve got the person who negatively impacted the Pope with his mere presence. Ugh. That’s crazy insane.
Ahaha 🤣 I didn’t want to say it. But folks know exactly what I mean. LOL. I mean he literally had a heart attack right after he looked Vance in the face. My god. That’s some creepy crazy sh*t 🤯
You're also free to starve to death, and/or die, due to lack of Healthcare. THIS is now trumps' state of affairs, and it's a state of a lot of confusion.
FDR said that the "four essential human freedoms" are freedom of speech, freedom of worship, freedom from want, and freedom from fear. We need to put his words into action.
And then he added the "economic bill of rights" in 1944 to go into depth on freedom from want and fear. FDR died before he could pursue his aspirations after the war.
Bernie and AOC understand FDR's thoughts and echo them when they speak of economic rights being human rights. Walz gets it too.
That are loud words and nonsense. What if the one likes mass shootings? Has he/she this freedom? Or the one chooses not to work, so tax payers must give him their dollar to free him of poverty? There must be some balance between the law and freedom, who chooses bring no value shell not be supported.
If you red carefully and got my point you would find out that it was not about "someone's family helping" in a random solitary instance. It is about people who choose not to work for life and get paid for this from your pocket embodying their free life. Just remember that when you pay taxes
Iwe owe 5000 a year after paying into 12000 thousand in federal taxes every year. And I'm okay knowing we are helping someone. And I don't have any kids in school. And we pay 10,000 Year in realestate taxes. And 7000 in state taxes. But it's okay.
Look, helping people is right thing to do, however at some point they start to think that you obligated to pay them since they are so poor and can do nothing except bringing children. If you a grown person having no issues with health and no job, than it rases questions.
I was just wondering the same thing. Missed opportunity? Well, I'd never heard of him before he was nominated for VP but now that I've listened to him he'd easily get my vote if he decided to run for President in the future.
And what’s your hero Trump doing to resolve the situation in Gaza? Oh, right, absolutely fucking nothing… Other than endorsing full-scale genocide so he can turn it into a Mediterranean resort paradise, but feel free to ignore that, you hypocritical scumbag.
Freedom is not a birthright, but rather something over which you must watch constantly. We are in this particular leaky boat because we have taught our children that freedom just miraculously is. We must store freedom in a Knox from those who would eagerly sell it to the highest bidder.
He'd be a great president. But the American system is so twisted that even a president like him or like Obama then or like Biden last time can't govern properly. Because Congress always prevents liberal presidents from governing, and even steals from them (see McConnell) and the media destroys them.
It’s still fucking revolting that half of each chamber are soulless Rs. WTF! My rep is R and that sickens the crap out of me. He barely won, but naturally if he won, it was legit. 🙄🙄🙄
Exactly.. I've often felt that Americans have forgotten what a wonderful country this is.
And it's not your place to force others to live under your opinions or religion.
I like him.
I trust him.
I think he'd make an excellent president.
and wish we had a congress full of people willing to fight for improving our lives like he does.

I am so proud of you…. Please schedule speeches in all states. I do have special gifts and strong intuition ( I am not a witch… smile ) . The near future seems to await you…. @timwaltz.bsky.social
Ready to answer the call to action 🍃🎼💙🦋🇺🇸
And all the Repubs stayed seated. They are saying "you deserve to starve. You don't have rights. Only those with mucho money have rights." Like a Banana Republic.
Look at those fucking republicans sit on their hands.
Will they ever learn that we don’t want their drive to an authoritarian government?
Yet their cowardice and willingness to bend the knee to one man, ignoring the voters who put them there is exactly why they won’t be there long.
America, you could have had this guy, but you wanted to own the libs, stop immigrants from 'eating cats and dogs', and stick it to brown folk & trans people. Congrats! You fucked yourselves & now you're gonna lose your snap benefits, social security, Medicare, and your jobs. Republicans are dumb AF.
The Republicans in this room are dispicable. I could understand if he was spouting party politics. But he's voicing basic human rights. And they sit there silent, with their hands clasped.
We should enshrine these rights - right to education, healthcare, bodily autonomy, personal identity, basic income into our Constitution so we can really get somewhere and the conservatives can stop pretending that’s not all included already in “life liberty and pursuit of happiness”
Feeling grateful to have Governor Walz at the helm. Meanwhile, the GOP shit-gibbons who vote to let children, the elderly & disabled go hungry sit there in their pouty pants trying to look relevant. 😵💫

You got that right, 100%.
Let no laws be made that take away those rights!
It’s NOT a birthright it’s a human right. It’s afforded to everyone on earth 🌍.
Right in this video. #Republicans

WSJ showing wealth gap continuing to increase significantly. Rich need a tax cut?! SS & MC funding problem?
No surprise low income HH’s crushed by rising costs & tax burden.
Also oligarch problem & money-party control loud & clear!
Are Arabs not fully human to you or something?
