Recent social media posts by right-wing activist Laura Loomer have sparked widespread speculation about Jeff Walz, brother of Democratic Vice Presidential nominee Tim Walz, and his alleged support for former President Donald Trump. Loomer’s posts, which have gone viral, claim that Jeff Walz donated to Trump’s 2016 campaign and expressed disdain for the Biden administration, referring to the U.S. as a “third world banana republic” on Facebook.
Loomer shared an unverified photograph purportedly showing a donation slip from Jeff Walz to Trump’s campaign, intensifying the debate. In a subsequent post, she alleged that Jeff Walz has distanced himself from his brother’s political ideologies, stating that he hasn’t spoken to Tim Walz in eight years and is “100% opposed” to his views.
The claims have yet to be substantiated, but they have ignited discussions across social media platforms, with many questioning the authenticity of the evidence provided by Loomer. Jeff Walz’s public comments suggest a strained relationship with his brother, and he has hinted at the possibility of endorsing Trump’s re-election bid.
Laura Loomer, known for her inflammatory rhetoric and controversial statements, remains a divisive figure in political circles. Her allegations have added a new dimension to the ongoing discourse surrounding the upcoming election.
