The ideology is increasingly unpopular among ordinary Americans
Gov. Tim Walz signed a law that strips parental protections from out-of-state teenagers and children who claim to want irreversible transgender medical treatment in Minnesota.
He also signed laws that install tampon-dispensing machines in K-12 schools to broadcast the state’s claim that teenage girls can choose their legal sex, and also a law that allows pedophilia to be someday legally protected under existing state anti-discrimination laws.
President Donald Trump’s campaign is eagerly spotlighting Walz’s pro-transgender advocacy, and is describing him as “#TamponTim.”
“As a woman, I think there is no greater threat to our health than leaders who support gender-transition surgeries for young minors, who support putting tampons in men’s bathrooms in public schools,” campaign spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt told Fox News on Tuesday. “Those are radical policies that Tim Walz supports.”
“Kamala Harris’s selection … of Tim Walz as her running mate sends a clear message to America: the Democrat Party is all in on its far-left cultural agenda,” said a statement from the American Principles Project. The project has promised to spend $18 million during the 2024 election to spotlight the Democrats’s pro-transgender priorities.
Rep. Walter Hudson, the GOP representative in Minnesota’s District 30A, described the law that strips parental protections — HF146 — in an April tweet:
The Democrat legislator who championed the parent-stripping law is Rep. Leigh Finke, a man who insists that he is a transgender woman. He promotes the “trans refuge” law to encourage more irreversible transgender surgeries and hormone treatment for children and adults in the state.
Minnesota’s media described the pro-surgery bill, which Walz signed in March 2024, as a bill to “protect gender-affirming health care access.” Multiple studies, however, show that “transgender” surgeries and hormones increase the suicide rate of damaged people.
Walz dismissed the bill’s opponents as irrational haters, saying, “In this state, hate has no home. In this state, love and acceptance is what we preach and we will live by that.”
Similar parent-stripping laws have been adopted in other Democratic-run states, including Kamala Harris’ adopted state of California.
Harris is also a long-standing supporter of the transgender ideology. The ideology says the government should enable adults and children to freely change sexes, regardless of the many biology-based civic norms developed to help the two equal, different, and complementary sexes.
Democratic politicians back the bills because their base of liberal supporters fervently believe governments must help adults and children become what they prefer to be, even if those goals are dangerous and disruptive to other Americans.
The ideology is increasingly unpopular among ordinary Americans. For example, a November 2023 poll of 1,000 likely California voters showed that 62 percent of respondents believe that a person’s sex is either male or female, not “transgender.”

Tim Walz’s deep links to China: Kamala’s VP pick taught and went on honeymoon in the country… and oversaw a scholarship program funded by Beijing
“No matter how long I live I’ll never be treated that well again.”
Tim Walz, Kamala Harris‘ running mate, has a deep affection for China after being one of the first government-sanctioned Americans to teach in the country.
Walz, 60, went to China straight after college through a program set up by Harvard University and taught in Guangdong province, shortly after the Tiananmen Square massacre in Beijing in 1989.
He would later honeymoon in China with his wife Gwen, bringing a group of 60 young people with them
In the 1990s the couple set up a business which took high school students to China every summer for around a decade.
Walz has been to China dozens of times, including on trade missions, and has called his experiences there ‘amazing’.
His admiration for the country opens the door for him to be attacked by Donald Trump and Republicans as the U.S, and China enter a period of increasing economic and military rivalry.
Walz, who speaks some Mandarin, said recently he did not accept that China had to be an ‘adversary’.
He said: ‘I’ve lived in China and, as I’ve said, I’ve been there about 30 times. If anyone tells you they’re an expert on China they’re probably not telling you the truth because it’s a complex country.
‘But it’s critically important for us. I don’t fall into the category that China necessarily needs to be an adversarial relationship, I totally disagree.’
…
Following his first trip to China, teaching at Foshan Number One High School, Walz told his local newspaper, the Alliance Star-Herald in Nebraska: ‘No matter how long I live I’ll never be treated that well again. They gave me more gifts than I could bring home. It was an excellent experience.’
He said ‘China was coming, and that’s the reason that I went,’ and expressed his admiration for how hard his Chinese students at Foshan No. 1 High School worked.
He said: ‘If they had the proper leadership there are no limits on what they could accomplish. They are such kind, generous, capable people. They just gave and gave and gave to me. Going there was one of the best things I have ever done.’
As a teacher back in the United States, Walz had a Chinese banner in his office.
According to a report in the Alliance Times-Herald in 1993, while students raised money for that summer’s trip to the country, Chinese authorities paid ‘a large part of the cost’.
Walz reportedly told the students to ‘downplay their American-ness’ on the trip.
A Chinese university was reportedly helping with expenses for food, rooms and transportation.
The following year seven students reportedly received $800 ‘scholarships’ to help with the cost.
The scholarships were sponsored by Walz, his wife, and ‘the Chinese government’.
