A Minnesotan grandmother, Lisa Hanson, called Governor Tim Walz (D) “evil” after she was jailed in 2021 for violating his COVID-19 mandates.
“This is the story that America needs to hear, that Tim Walz is not some cuddly, joyful coach, like all the things that the MSMs are calling him,” Hanson told Fox News. “That is not who this man is. This man would like to take your rights away. He will take your rights away. Because what happened to me could have happened to anybody. What happened to me will happen to you.”
Hanson, formerly a wine and coffee bistro owner, defied Walz’s shutdown order. She initially obeyed the order, but later re-opened her business when she saw the prolonged closure of businesses considered “nonessential.”
“He shut down a lot of the mom-and-pop shops, those folks that were just trying to make a living and provide a great product and a great service,” she said. “In contrast, he allowed big-box stores, etc., to stay open. Really incredible, an incredible use of tyranny against the people.”
Hanson was jailed for 90 days in December 2021 due to her noncompliance, missing Christmas, the birth of one of her grandchildren, and her wedding anniversary. Her sentencing was later reduced to 60 days.
“I can never have that time back. That time was stolen from me. My business was destroyed. My business is gone,” the grandmother told the outlet. “After everything that happened, Tim Walz and Keith Ellison destroyed my business. They wrecked my life.”
“[L]et America know you do not want Tim Walz as vice president. You do not want tyranny at this level,” she urged. “I have seen firsthand, we, the people of Minnesota, have seen what Tim Walz, the type of evil he orchestrates if he is elected as vice president of this country. He, in lockstep with Harris, who is also evil, will perpetuate this same type of evil on the American people. We do not want that. So, this is the truth about Tim Walz.”
“He’s not done wrecking lives. He’s going to continue to wreck lives,” Hanson added. “I don’t use that word loosely, ‘evil.’ But the evil person that he is, it’s no wonder that the evil Harris picked him to be her running mate.”
