EDITOR’S NOTE: We first brought you this story yesterday with the caveat that we were waiting on confirmation that the account in question is legitimate. Breitbart is now reporting it is, so we’re updating this story with the additional reporting from Breitbart. Truly a stunning report, enjoy!
Little is known about Kamala Harris’ VP, Tim Walz’s siblings, especially his apparently estranged brother, Jeff Walz.
However, there are some Facebook posts circulating online, which were allegedly posted by Jeff.
And, they are absolutely scathing towards Tim.
According to the posts rumored to be from Tim Walz’s brother’s account, Kamala’s VP is “not the type of character you want making decisions about your future.”
Furthermore, the posts claim that Jeff Walz is considering teaming up with…Donald Trump!
To stop his OWN BROTHER from becoming second-in-command of our country!
Take a look:
JUST IN: Tim Walz's brother says he is considering joining forces with Trump, says his brother is "not the type of character you want making decisions about your future."
Jeff Walz's Facebook profile was discovered by @LauraLoomer who found several stunning posts.

This all started when Laura Loomer uncovered recordings that appear to show that Jeff Walz is a Trump supporter:
NEW:
🚨🚨🚨
Tim Walz @GovTimWalz and @KamalaHarris are such a bad Presidential ticket that Walz’s own BROTHER is supporting Donald Trump instead.

She later posted an update that said Tim Walz responded to her report with these posts, condemning his brother and supporting Trump:
EXCLUSIVE UPDATE:
🚨 Tim Walz’s brother Jeff responds to my report by condemning all of Walz’s ideology and saying he’s thinking about getting on stage at a Trump rally to tell stories about his brother Tim Walz and his poor character🚨

Now, we can’t say for sure that this account really does belong to Jeff Walz.
Times Now addressed the rumors:
With the US election approaching, a post by conservative commentator Laura Loomer has gone viral. A MAGA supporter, Loomer claimed that Jeff Walz, the brother of Democratic Vice President nominee Tim Walz, supports Donald Trump, the Republican Presidential pick. Posting a photograph of what looks like a donation slip, she claimed that Jeff had donated to Trump in 2016.
However, Times Now Digital cannot verify the authenticity of Laura Loomer’s claims and the evidence she has attached.
It could be a troll account.
But, if these posts are real, they are absolutely DAMNING to the character of Tim Walz.
His own brother doesn’t even support him.
More than that, his brother backs the OTHER SIDE!
If these posts are legit, then I would really like to see Jeff Walz do what he says he is considering doing and join Trump onstage at a rally!
Wouldn’t that send a powerful message?
What are your thoughts? Do you believe this is real?
And now for our update…
Breitbart is reporting the account as real and the story as authentic:
The brother of Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) revealed that Vice President Kamala Harris’s running mate is “not the type of character you want making decisions about your future.”
In a Facebook post from March 2023, Jeff Walz, one of the Minnesota governor’s siblings, responded to comments from people telling him to talk to his brother and to “help MAGA.”
“We’ve just become a third-world banana republic,” Jeff Walz wrote in his post at the time.
One of the commenters on the post told Jeff Walz to “have a talk” with his brother.
“Haven’t spoke to him in 8 years,” Jeff Walz claimed in a comment. “I’m opposed to all his ideology. My family wasn’t given any notice [that] he was selected and denied security the days after.”
In another comment, a person told him to “Help MAGA” and “Get on stage with President Trump and endorse him.”
“Help save this country,” the person added.
“I’ve thought hard about doing something like that,” Jeff Walz responded. “I’m torn between that and just keeping my family out of it. The stories I could tell. Not the type of character you want making decisions about your future.”
Walz, who was named Harris’s running mate at the beginning of August, has faced criticism and accusations of stolen valor after he previously listed in his official biography that he retired at a rank higher than the one he had actually retired at.
The NY Post has also confirmed:
Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Walz is not the “type of character” who should make decisions about America’s future, his older brother warned in a series of damning Facebook comments this week.
“I’m 100% opposed to all his ideology,” Jeff Walz declared Friday evening about the far-left Minnesota governor and running mate of Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris.
And he has so little faith in his kid brother, Jeff Walz is now considering publicly endorsing former President Trump’s White House run, he told a Facebook poster who urged him to “Get on stage with President Trump and endorse him.”
Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Walz is not the “type of character” who should make decisions about America’s future, his older brother warned.“I’ve thought long and hard about doing something like that! I’m torn between that and just keeping my family out of it,” the 67-year-old Floridian wrote in a response which notched 449 likes.
“The stories I could tell. Not the type of character you want making decisions about your future,” he added.
Besides Jeff, Tim Walz, 60, has a sister, Sandy Dietrich, 63, who lives in Nebraska, where the Walz clan grew up. Another brother, Craig Walz, 44, died when a tree fell on him during a storm which ripped through a Minnesota campsite in 2016.
Jeff and Tim Walz haven’t spoken in eight years, Jeff Walz wrote.
