Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Walz, in his last campaign for Minnesota governor, touted an endorsement from a pro-Kremlin conspiracy theorist who called 9/11 a "false flag operation" and allegedly said the Navy SEALs "deserve to lose a few guys" in Iraq.
In October 2022, Walz said he was "thrilled" to receive an endorsement from Jesse Ventura, the former pro wrestler, ex-Minnesota governor, and former host for Moscow’s propaganda outfit, RT America. "Since leaving office, I’ve rarely endorsed a candidate for office in Minnesota of any political persuasion," Ventura said in a video released by the Walz campaign.
Ventura, who won a third-party bid for Minnesota governor in 1998, endorsed the Kamala Harris-Walz ticket in a CNN interview Friday, saying he wanted to "see a woman president." And he lauded Walz on his podcast Sunday.
"Tim Walz is very much a Jesse Ventura," Ventura said.
