Megyn Kelly ridiculed Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, referring to him as “Tampon Tim.”
Megyn Kelly attacked Tim Walz, the governor of Minnesota, labeling him “the most radical” candidate to be Kamala Harris’ running partner. In another trolling move, she called him “Tampon Tim” for giving males complimentary menstruation cups.
Since yesterday, Walz has been on my mind. During her Wednesday broadcast of “The Megyn Kelly Show” on SiriusXM, Kelly stated that “he’s the most radical they could find on the trans issue.”
Kelly’s comments are related to the fact that during Walz’s governorship, Minnesota was designated as a “refuge state,” providing legal protection to children who travel there for gender-affirming medical care, including hormone therapy, reconstructive genital surgery, and puberty blockers, as well as to the medical professionals who conduct the procedures.
Kelly likened Walz to California Governor Gavin Newsom, who enacted legislation designed to conceal parents from learning their children’s gender identity. “There’s hardly any difference, if any, between those two,” the speaker stated. “I find him frightening because he has the potential to be both the vice president and the president.”

‘I see why she chose him’
This week, Walz accompanied Harris to her rally in Philadelphia. Kelly implied that he was a stronger speaker than Harris by remarking, “He had that rally in the palm of his hand.” “He is far more productive than either Joe Biden or she is.”
Kelly said that she experienced “a feeling of fear rise up in my throat” when she saw Walz speak at the gathering. “Because I am aware of the things he is allowing concerning children in Minnesota,” she remarked.
“Tampon Tim is the name,” Kelly stated in a post on X. That concludes it.
The article refers to Wal-Mart’s policy of giving elementary school students—including transgender students—free menstruation supplies.
Tampon Tim is the name. That’s it. https://t.co/TpCFhDTE5X

Several states led by Republicans have outlawed providing gender affirming care for kids. In many states, medical practitioners who carry out these treatments risk losing their license to practice medicine.
“Children are important to me. Kelly said of Walz, “And he is pedal to the metal, full steam ahead on all of it.” Thus, I recoiled when I saw him sparkle last night. I’ve been honest about not wanting to vote for him. I understand her choice in him.
