Tim Walz is citing weapons he never carried in wars he never fought to justify his radical anti-gun policies. 

Walz wants universal background checks, government sponsored anti-gun research, Red Flag laws, an end to concealed-carry reciprocity and the confiscation of ARs, which he calls “weapons of war.” 

“I spent 25 years in the Army, and I hunt … I’ve been voting for common sense legislation that protects the Second Amendment, but we can do background checks. We can do CDC research. We can make sure we don’t have reciprocal carry among states, and we can make sure that those weapons of war, that I carried in war, is the only place where those weapons are at,” said during a 2018 speech that was posted this week on social media by the Harris-Walz campaign. 

Kamala Harris has no gun-control policies – or policies of any kind – currently listed on her campaign website, but she plays an integral role in Joe Biden’s war on guns and gun rights. In the past, she has called for mandatory buybacks of “assault weapons.” This is nothing more than political-speak for forced confiscation of private property by armed agents of the government, which violates the Second, Fourth, Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments. 

The Harris-Walz campaign’s radical anti-gun views have drawn praise and support from other likeminded radicals, especially David Hogg. 

Hogg’s anti-gun apparatus is already sending text messages to millions of young people fundraising for Harris and Walz:

Hi, I’m David Hogg, co-founder of March for Our Lives and Leaders We Deserve.

The work to mobilize young people across the country to support Vice President Harris and Governor Tim Walz is happening right now – not in September or October.

Young voters’ excitement across the internet and in battleground states is palpable, but we must turn this enthusiasm into votes. That means supporting folks on the ground doing the work to highlight the contrast between their hopeful vision for the future, and Trump’s agenda that would take us backward.

I’m determined to do everything I can to ensure Kamala and Tim are elected in November – and I’m asking you to join me.

They’re going to need every single one of us to rise to the challenge. Will you rush a $20 donation to Kamala and Tim’s campaign right now and be part of this historic moment?

Together, we can make a difference.

The hyperlink whisks potential donors straight to ActBlue, which claims it has raised more than $14 billion since 2004 for “Democratic candidates & progressive causes across the country.”

Deserving Leaders PAC

Hogg described his Leaders We Deserve PAC as “a grassroots organization dedicated to electing young progressives to Congress and State Legislatures across the country to help defeat the far-right agenda and advance a progressive vision for the future.”

“Young Progressive candidates face systemic barriers. At every level of government, the average politician is older than the average American. Our political system is stacked against young people – in favor of those who are older, wealthier and white,” his website states. 

Hogg claimed his PAC will “identify and endorse young, dynamic, diverse, exceptional progressive candidates who are 30 years old and under for State Legislature, and 35 years old and under for Congress. 

Hogg does not say how Kamala Harris, 59, or Tim Walz, 60, could be described as youthful, audacious or charismatic. 

Leaders We Deserve has posted only two times on its Twitter/X account since it joined the site in July 2023. Its Facebook page has 6,500 followers, but it too has only two posts. 

Its 60-person advisory board is made up of committed anti-gun Democrats, including Senator Chris Murphy, Representatives Jamie Raskin, Ayanna Pressley, Rosa DeLauro, Jamaal Bowman and Eric Swalwell. Randi Weingarten, president of the American Federation of Teachers, former Washington D.C. police officer Michael Fanone, actress Alyssa Milano, Gail Schwartz, chair of Ban Assault Weapons Now, Ashley Lantz, executive director of Brady PAC, and Kate Moore, political director of Giffords also serve on the board. 

Like his texts, the Leaders We Deserve donation page routes donors to ActBlue. It has no presence on Guidestar or other nonprofit navigators. 

Hogg’s better-known nonprofit, March for Our Lives, was incorporated in 2018 and has more than $1.3 million in assets, according to Guidestar

“Born out of a tragic school shooting, March for Our Lives is a courageous youth-led movement dedicated to promoting civic engagement, education, and direct action by youth to eliminate the epidemic of gun violence,” the site claims. 

According to its 2022 IRS form 990, Hogg received an annual salary of $56,974 for a 10-hour workweek. The nonprofit’s executive director, Lamia El-Sadek, received $62,074 for a 40-hour workweek. 

Clearly, Hogg’s claims that he will help elect “young, dynamic, diverse” candidates are bunk. He supports gun-grabbers regardless of their age. Harris and Walz are using him to target young people. They want their money. 

Joe Biden may have been the most anti-gun president in the history of the country but based upon their radical policies and access to funds, Harris and Walz would be far worse.

  1. “Will you rush a $20 donation to Kamala and Tim’s campaign right now and be part of this historic moment?”

    Yes! For the low low price of $20.00 you too can be a ‘Hogg Boy Space Cadet”.

    I guess if ya don’t send ’em $20.00 you will not be a good Marxist.

    • When Gun Control zealots lay Muskets on the table you lay Musket Black Powder used to make bombs on the table. They just didn’t shoot red coats back to england they blew red coats back to england ol’ chap…Always keep powder horns away from sparks, etc.

      d.hogg had his behind handed to him many times but it doesn’t matter to him because he is a paid mouthpiece. It goes without saying the fools who contribute to his Gun Control rot are as dumb as a box of rocks. Contributors are kept in the dark and never exposed to the underbelly of Gun Control. Gullible contributors assume Gun Control is recent without a history and that’s a very dangerous assumption…

  2. Hoggboy wasn’t even in the Florida school building at the shooting. Just like tampon tim never carried a gat in I-Rak. This bs could turn into a most un-cIvIL war🙄

    • I find it interesting that David has a Bloomberg funded protection team armed with the very same tools that he wants us to give up.

    • Fake survivor pushing fake narrative to drive donations to fake candidates all covered by fake news……..it is impressive in a way and cue the fack check hall monitor for the “aksually”

    • Attention Hogg was home that day playing with his pal, Jarron Bloshinsky’s alias “Jazz Jennings’, vienna sausage.

  3. “We need to ban guns.” -04 August 2024 email from Mr. Hogg. LWD’s position doesn’t get much straighter than that.

    If one has a strong stomach, it is interesting to get on Everytown’s mailing list and see how they portray anyone who doesn’t endorse their restrictions as “gun extremists”, how they crassly exploit every tragedy as reason to send them money, etc.

  4. The third reich had some common sense Gun laws too, Sieg Heil tampon tim.

    On the other hand observe what happens when an Agenda Rooted in Racism and Genocide infects the minds of Gun Control History illiterates…Not to worry the bigotry of johnnyboy and the stupidity of lampsht will motivate protesters to denounce Gun Control…NOT.

  5. “…and we can make sure that those weapons of war, that I carried in war, is the only place where those weapons are at.” – Walz

    The 2nd Amendment is precisely about protecting the right of the People to keep and bear weapons of war. WTF does this guy thing a militia is, anyway?

    • Unitas,

      And the execrable Miller “decision”, for all the harm it did, and the abject stupidity that it enshrined, DID get one CONCEPT right (although they applied it stupidly) – the arms that the 2A was intended to protect are EXACTLY those used in combat by our military. NO ONE, in the 1790s or early 1800s, would have done anything but laugh at a proposal to ban hunting weapons. It (the 2A) was ALWAYS about protecting citizens’ access to the tools they would need to oppose an invading army or (watch for the Leftist/fascist head explosions!!) to kick a government become oppressive to the curb. Anyone who doesn’t understand that is either stupid, ignorant, or a liar (but, embrace the healing power of “and”!!).

      • Now calm down Lamp…ya know Kamala wants you to have joy and feel good vibes and suspend reality and just cackle along.

        😊

        • .40 cal,

          I would say something like “Kamal-toe can suck my *$?!”, but . . . I wouldn’t let that smelly skank anywhere NEAR my nether regions. I don’t think Trump is much of a “conservative” or a “libertarian”, but . . . if the Left is accusing him of being “extreme right wing”, at LEAST HE’S being honest about it!! Kamala Knee-pads and stolen valor Tamon Tim are lying through their teeth about being anything but full on socialist/communist, Leftist/fascists. I hate all politicians, but one can make distinctions about “degrees of dishonesty”.

    • we should check campaign finance docs next reporting period and make fun of how little he brought in. because i agree this is a loser issue and most voters don’t give a shit or actively disagree with hogg. the sooner dems get this through their thick skulls the better for them. meanwhile they keep dragging around dead hogg meat.

  6. When will Attention Hogg succumb to the ravages of HIV/AIDS? I’m tired of hearing about this grifting, noodle-armed, pencilnecked offspring of a Very Fake News CNN producer mommy and FBLie crisis simulator daddy.

  7. And what weapon did JD Vance carry in Afghanistan serving in a Public Relations Battalion…

  8. What has WALZ’s stance of FIREARMS got to do with the fact that he did not see COMBAT [neither did VANCE] by the way?
    The fact is that neither have over 80% of all US Service Personnel seen combat and probably never will. Neither did I in any meaningful sense though was where it happened in ADEN and in CYPRUS and I served in the UK Forces [ much of the time as a Sergeant Smallarms Instructor and Musketry Coach] and in the UK INFANTRY RESERVES for nearly two decades . But WALTZ did have extensive training in their use and himself was an ARTILLERY INSTRUCTOR.
    EXTENSIVE training is as far as the majority of MILITARY Personnel ever get
