News of Tim Walz Hosting Pro-Hitler Imam Gets Worse With Unearthed Footage (VIDEO)
Last Friday, days after he was selected as Vice President Kamala Harris’ running mate, it was reported that Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) had hosted Asad Zaman, an imam who spoke out against Israel on October 7 and shared pro-Hitler propaganda. While the Harris-Walz campaign claimed that Walz had no personal relationship with Zaman, a new report is out showing otherwise.

On Tuesday morning, the Washington Examiner’s Gabe Kaminsky, who previously reported on the relationship, posted footage of remarks from Walz about Zaman. A longer version of such remarks has been shared to YouTube.
The video shows Walz expressing his thanks for the imam as he also notes, “I am a teacher. So when I see a master teacher, I know it. And, um, over the time we’ve spent together, one of the things, uh, one of the things I’ve had the privilege of is seeing the things in life through the eye of a master teacher to try and get the understanding.”

A write-up from Kaminsky notes that such footage is from 2018, when Walz was running for his first term as governor. The event in question took place on February 16, 2018 and was hosted by the Minnesota’s Muslim American Society, which Zaman is affiliated with.
