This month’s first Bi-Monthly PUNK OF THE MONTH to the man who President-Elect Kamala Harris has made her running mate for Vice President of the United States of America.  A very Rad Guy MR TIM WALZ is the Governor of Minnesota. He is very close pals with Senator AMY KLOBUCHAR who is also from Minnesota.

TIM WALZ  is Minnesota’s 41st Governor. He was first elected Governor in 2018 and won re-election in 2022. Born in a small town in rural Nebraska, Tim’s parents instilled in him the values of public service, generosity toward your neighbors, and working for the common good that guide his commitment to Minnesota today. After high school graduation, TIM enlisted in the Army National Guard. He attended Chadron State College and graduated with a social science degree in 1989. TIM spent a year teaching abroad before returning home to serve full-time in the Army National Guard and eventually accepting a high school teaching and coaching position.

While teaching, TIM met his future wife, Gwen Whipple, who taught at the same school. They moved to Mankato in 1996, where they worked at Mankato West High School. In addition to teaching social studies, Tim helped coach the Mankato West football team that won the school’s first state championship. After 24 years in the Army National Guard, Command Sergeant Major Walz retired from the 1-125th Field Artillery Battalion in 2005. TIM won his first election to the United States House of Representatives in 2006 and was re-elected for another five terms serving Minnesota’s First Congressional District in Southern Minnesota.
