Tim Walz’s daughter, 24, shares furious foul-mouthed response after Trump called her dad the R-word… before quickly deleting the video

The daughter of Minnesota Governor Tim Walz posted a profanity-laced video on Saturday attacking President Donald Trump for calling her father ‘seriously retarded.’

Hope Walz, 24, quickly deleted the video from TikTok, but social media users were able to salvage copies before it was wiped from the platform.

In the video, she accused Trump of inspiring his ‘cult members’ to name call and attack her family, specifically her brother Gus – who has a non-verbal learning disability.

‘The president calling my dad what he did has unleashed a f***ing s***storm regarding offensive language towards me and my family,’ she said.

‘You can call me whatever you want, you can call my dad, my mom. When it’s Gus, f*** to the no. F*** to the no. He dealt with people calling him that last August and now there’s a resurgence.’

She was likely referring to the viral moment during last year’s Democratic National Convention, where Gus was seen crying and saying ‘that’s my dad’ as Walz accepted the vice presidential nomination.

‘I have people DMing me saying absolutely horrendous things. When I was home last week, somebody drove by and screamed that we were R-words,’ she added. ‘What world are we f***ing living in.’

Trump called Walz ‘retarded’ after The New York Times reported that criminals, mostly from Somali communities, stole more than $1 billion from Medicaid-funded social programs being run by the state of Minnesota.

‘The seriously retarded Governor of Minnesota, Tim Walz, does nothing, either through fear, incompetence, or both,’ Trump wrote on Truth Social on Thanksgiving.

During an appearance on Meet The Press last weekend, Walz said Trump’s use of the term is ‘just so damaging’.

‘He’s normalized this type of hateful behavior and this type of language,’ Walz said. ‘And mainly, look, at first, I think it’s just because he’s not a good human being.’

Federal prosecutors say of the 86 people that have been charged in the Minnesota fraud schemes, 59 have been convicted so far.

One central case involved the nonprofit Feeding Our Future, which claimed to serve tens of thousands of meals to low-income children during the pandemic.

Prosecutors allege most of those meals never existed, and instead, the taxpayer money went to luxury homes, cars, jewelry and real estate abroad.

Walz began shutting down the state’s housing initiative in the last few months, admitting that it was beyond saving.

The fraud reached such a scale that that program ballooned from an expected $2.6 million to $104 million, mostly due to fake billing. Hundreds of providers were reimbursed for services that were never provided.

Another program that was supposed to provide therapy to autistic children did nothing of the sort, according to prosecutors.

They say providers found children in Minneapolis’s Somali community and falsely certified them as qualifying for autism treatment. In return, the parents were paid kickbacks for their cooperation and their silence.

Critics of Walz claim a key reason the fraud wasn’t stopped was due to a reluctance from civil servants to go after the criminals due to their race, and being fearful of alienating the Somali community, according to the New York Times.

Walz has defended what has gone on by saying his administration erred on the side of generosity during the pandemic and prioritized getting money out to people as quickly as possible

In 2020, Minnesota Department of Education officials were drowning in a flood of applications for new pandemic feeding sites.

As the number of providers exploded and invoices skyrocketed, staff started questioning the authenticity of invoices for meals that supposedly went to tens of thousands of children.

Feeding Our Future, the largest nonprofit participating in the program, warned that if the state didn’t fast-track approvals for ‘minority-owned businesses,’ it would face a lawsuit accusing officials of racism.

The state backed down. Feeding Our Future filed suit anyway, and despite mounting red flags, the state’s education department kept approving feeding sites and reimbursing claims for months afterward.

On Friday, Dr. Oz, the Administrator for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), threatened to withhold Medicaid funding from Minnesota if the state does not get serious about rooting out fraud in its social safety net.

In a letter Oz sent to Walz, he demanded that the Minnesota provide ‘weekly updates’ on its progressing auditing 14 programs that were identified as suffering from fraud by CMS.

By the end of December, Oz wants a detailed plan on how to prevent future fraud from state regulators.

‘By the end of January 2026, if your administration has not taken sufficient corrective steps, CMS may initiate actions to withhold federal Medicaid funding for expenditures related to the fourteen identified high-risk programs,’ the letter said.
