Tim Walz just earned major points with me

Yes, I tuned in to the rally yesterday afternoon. My verdict: I already like this guy! His progressive policies are one reason, how obviously genuine he is is another, but that GSA story... wow. As someone who grew up queer and desperately closeted in the small town Midwest at the turn of the millennium? So. much. respect.

And yes, I dearly want to see a Walz-Vance debate. I want to see J.D. Vance get a verbal kick or several in the J.D. pants.

Yes, he (and the DFL, the Minnesota Democrats) have made Minnesota a trans sanctuary state. To the point where Russian refugees have moved there just because they have heard about its reputation as such.
