Minnesota Governor Tim Walz recently spoke out against former President Donald Trump and Ohio Senator JD Vance for their comments on immigration during a rally in Durham, North Carolina. Walz accused Trump and Vance of spreading false conspiracy theories about immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, and Aurora, Colorado, putting them 'at risk.'

Walz specifically referenced Trump's claims about Haitian migrants eating pets in Springfield, which were debunked during a Univision town hall. He criticized Vance for his unwavering support of Trump, stating that Vance's loyalty lies with the former president rather than the Constitution.
