Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz is nervous about Tuesday evening’s vice presidential debate against Sen. JD Vance, R-Ohio, according to CNN. 

Tim Walz is telling people he’s just as nervous about facing JD Vance as he was the Sunday afternoon in August when he warned Kamala Harris in his running mate interview that he was a bad debater,” the corporate media outlet’s Edward-Isaac Dovere, wrote Monday. 

“Maybe more nervous, according to multiple people who’ve spoken to him,” the reporter added. 

Walz has good reason to be nervous. The face-off is most likely the last debate of the presidential campaign cycle. Much is at stake. Vance, former President Donald Trump’s trusty running mate, has only solidified his reputation as extremely sharp, well-spoken, and quick on his feet. 

Walz is also an unrepentant liar, and liars by their natures are a nervous lot. They have to be. They spend a good deal of time and energy trying to hide and explain their lies. 

And if we don’t have a repeat of last month’s blatantly biased presidential debate, Walz will have a lot of explaining to do. Don’t hold your breath but perhaps CBS News, hosting Tuesday’s debate, has taken stock of ABC News’ fiasco in which moderators David Muir and Linsey Davis formed a hydra-like media-candidate throuple with Harris to bolster the Democrats’ babbling presidential candidate and politically bludgeon Trump. The debate was more than one-sided — it was an in-kind contribution by ABC News to the Harris-Walz campaign, complaints filed with the Federal Election Commission and the Federal Communications Commission charge. 

Lots of Lies

Walz should be made to answer why he:

Embellished his rank in the U.S. Army National Guard.

Stole the valor of fellow service members by falsely claiming that he carried a weapon in a combat zone. 

— Downplayed his 1995 drunken and reckless driving arrest, with his congressional campaign claiming that Walz hadn’t been drinking and his failed sobriety test was the result of a misunderstanding caused by his hearing loss during his time in a Guard artillery unit. 

— spun a story about his and his wife’s struggles with fertility and the use of the less invasive intrauterine insemination process to falsely attack Vance for working to eliminate in vitro fertilization. Vance and Trump have publicly supported IVF. 

— Boasted that he was in Hong Kong during the Chinese Communist Party’s brutal crackdown of the 1989 student protests in Tiananmen Square. He was in Nebraska. 

Radical Record

More so, Walz should have to defend his far-left record as governor of blue Minnesota. He should tell America why a politician painted as a moderate in flannel shirts is a very late-term abortion kind of guy. Last year, Walz signed a bill that ends the state requirement that physicians must try to save the life of babies who survive abortions. 

“So ‘care’ can mean ‘let die,’ if one’s conscience permits,” Washington Post columnist Kathleen Parker wrote in late August. 

The faux centrist should explain why he turned Minnesota into a “trans refuge,” making it a sanctuary state for the sexual mutilation of children.  

Let’s see him twist and contort his way out of the lockdowns that severely restricted the liberties of his fellow citizens under the cover of Covid and his failure to quickly dispatch National Guard troops amid the Black Lives Matter riots, resulting in portions of Minneapolis burning down. 

How about his troubling alleged connections to the Chinese Communist Party? On Monday, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-K.Y., issued subpoenas to the Department of Homeland Security for related records, Fox News Digital reported.

If CBS News moderators don’t allow for an honest examination of Walz’s leftist record, Vance should press the governor at every turn. 

Between his lies and his far-left political resume, the vice presidential candidate should be a bundle of nerves.
