Joe Rogan criticized Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as a “dangerous son of a bitch” during a recent episode of his podcast. He suggested that the timing of protests against ICE coinciding with allegations of fraud in Minnesota was significant.
Rogan described Walz as “a dangerous guy” after comedian Andrew Doyle highlighted the governor’s inaccurate statements regarding the First Amendment during a 2024 vice presidential debate with J.D. Vance.
“He’s acting really strange,” Rogan noted, commenting on Walz’s theatrical behavior on stage. “It’s all very fake and performative, but honestly, I don’t know anyone who isn’t sort of dangerous these days.”
The host implied that there was a clear reason Walz exited the gubernatorial race. “I suspect he’s been aware of this cheating issue for quite a while,” Rogan speculated, suggesting that “if it weren’t for that Nick Shirley kid and the video,” Walz might have remained a candidate.
Rogan stated, “This stuff comes to light and becomes a major news story. It’s not a coincidence that riots happen where these wrongdoings are being uncovered.”
“ICE is everywhere,” he added, indicating that the “most violent interactions” tend to occur in areas where misconduct is exposed. “This seems deliberate,” he asserted, claiming that Walz was aware of the situation beforehand.
Rogan pointed out, “One indicator is his resignation. He clearly doesn’t plan to run for governor again. He was in the race, but he’s decided to step away from public service entirely.”
He offered a theory: “Maybe the federal government warned him, saying, ‘If you don’t come clean, you’ll face prosecution. We know what you did.’ Or perhaps he intends to minimize the evidence against him.”
Rogan raised a broader concern, suggesting that a reality where “Elon doesn’t buy Twitter, Kamala Harris wins, and Tim Walz becomes Vice President” illustrates how fragile freedom can be. “And this situation explains why many people are drawn to Donald Trump,” he added. “It’s a shift from what we all thought was going to happen.”
