These are beyond serious allegations, it sounds like typical MAGA bullshit to drum up hate, out of curiosity I Googled to try and see where the rumor started. And nothing came up, there were a few hundred MAGA replies already saying how he needs to be punished and they had a feeling about him. 1 even replied they know it was a boy because something something something about Walz being gay himself.

I'd never heard of the guy who posted it, but Googling him surprise surprise he's a Republican from NV. I see nonsense rumors spread all the time on X by MAGAs so that's nothing new, but this one's especially bad. And it has over a million views and has been reposted over 8,000 times. My rule of thumb, if I hear a rumor, I Google it. If not a single thing comes up it has to be bullshit, that seems easy to understand. But the MAGAts are foaming at the mouth over a rumor with zero basis. I replied that's there no proof, and questioned people who instantly run with what's clearly a made up story and a friendly neighborhood MAGA replied calling me a Pedo lol. The post he quoted with the allegations sounds like a MAGA fantasy.

Also BREAKING: rumors sound dumb as hell, I've heard BREAKING: news.

I believe in free speech, to a point, so I won't lock this, BUT, OP, please question the advisability of giving oxygen, and therefore some measure of credibility, to an obviously false rumor. Your ZERO POINT infraction is just to get your attention.

Here's the "proof" lol

I love how he brought up that Walz lied about being a coach when he was really an assistant coach. Call me dumb, but that's still a coach? I mean he never referred to himself as "head coach Tim Walz"

Meanwhile a video could surface of Diaper Don fondling a teen girl and they would ignore it. But a rumor from Black Insurrectionist? BEST PROOF EVER

You think that might have mattered when Walz ran for Governor. A position of actual power and authority. Of meaning and consequence.
You think Harris's selection team would have dug into the backgrounds.

It'll take far more than Nazi filth to make any claim credible.

Doesn't matter how credible it is...just that it gets the attention of people.

So you’ve looked into this, have you? Done some research into the validity of this accusation?
Absolutely none. It's one idiot on X making wild claims without producing any evidence. Why would I bother looking into it? But it will produce much gnashing of teeth and cries for censorship. This has entertainment written all over it. If it turns out to be true, which seems extremely unlikely, it will be a shit show of biblical proportions.

Old enough to remember weeks ago all the "inside information" on X that Harris was going to replace Walz because nobody liked him while Vance was stepping on his own dick with golf cleats daily. MAGA fever dreams.

It's a cult!

And it knows no bounds.. investment bankers, armed forces, millionaires, billionaires, genx males without any savings, incels anyone looking to lash out and turn the world upside down.. Trump is their weapon!

So the party of (checks notes) "personal responsibility" and "law and order" is perfectly fine with libel and slander and considers any action against those to be censorship.
