Tim Walz is publicly celebrating a 40% drop in the stock value of Tesla since the beginning of 2025. This is a HUGE slap in the face to countless Minnesotans because their state pension plan is heavily vested in Tesla stock. 

In a recent ‘Walz for President 2028’ campaign tour stop, that looked more like a stand-up comedy routine than a political gathering, Walz joked about the Tesla stock therapy he uses to “give him a little boost during the day”.

Unfortunately, Walz’s “little boost” is at the expense of the people he is supposed to be looking out for… hard working, liberty loving folks like you.  

In our state we have various retirement funds, trust funds, and cash accounts managed by the Minnesota State Board of Investment (SBI). An SBI report from June 30, 2024 shows a little more than 1.6 million shares of Tesla stock in it’s portfolio and that stock has plummeted over 40% since Jan 1.

In his disgustingly insensitive “little boost” comment, Walz shamelessly cheered AGAINST the state’s success and flagrantly celebrated the PAIN of Minnesotans.

Even former MN Rep. Dean Phillips, who referred to Walz as “my Governor and my friend” during a News Nation interview, said he’s “appalled and shocked” at Walz’s statement. 

Dean went on to say, “I feel like we’re living in the twilight zone. I really don’t recognize my party, I don’t recognize its principles”. And the fall of Tesla stock has “hurt a lot of Minnesotans who have their money in pension funds”.

Shark Tank’s Kevin O’Leary hit the nail on the head when he told The Hill, “That poor guy didn’t check his portfolio and his own pension plan for the state. It’s beyond stupid what he did.”

O’Leary continued, “What’s the matter with that guy? He doesn’t check the well-being of his own constituents.” 

The answer to that question would be a resounding NO!

The people of this state deserve a Governor who truly cares about their welfare and their future. Action 4 Liberty will not relent in the fight for a stronger and better Minnesota.
