US EditionWalz calls Trump a ‘tyrant’ who is trampling Americans’ rights and violating the rule of law
- Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, the 2024 Democratic vice presidential candidate, criticized Donald Trump during his address at the University of Minnesota’s law school commencement ceremony on Saturday.
- Walz condemned Trump for declaring a national emergency and consistently disregarding legal boundaries, encouraging graduates to challenge the misuse of authority amid the intense political divisions following Kamala Harris' defeat in the 2024 election.
- In his speech, Walz criticized Trump's aggressive immigration policies, such as sending alleged gang members to a harsh prison in El Salvador without legal protections, and referenced the controversial gift of a private jet from Qatar’s royal family to the president, describing these events as examples of the deteriorating rule of law that the nation’s founders warned against.
- Walz described large law firms as "feckless" and "cowardly" for acquiescing to Trump, called lawyers "our first and last line of defense," and urged graduates to refuse work with firms failing to uphold their legal oaths.
- His remarks drew strong applause, highlighting Democratic dissatisfaction with the party’s leadership and direction. Among those considering a 2028 presidential run, Walz has been visiting states that hold early voting, while critics argue that Democrats have not mounted a strong enough challenge to Trump.
