Vice presidential candidate and Democratic Minnesota Governor Tim Walz is getting applause online after a viral video showed him convincing frat boys to vote for him and Kamala Harris.

With more and more men, including young men, shifting ever further to the right, the importance of Walz's impact cannot be overestimated.


And his success in reaching these young men ultimately came down to something very simple—a discussion of core values.

In the video, one of the young men told Walz that he and most of his fraternity brothers were undecided until they watched the September 10 debate between Harris and former President Donald Trump. Pointing to his friends, the young man said:

“This guy was undecided, so was this guy, and they’re both coming out for you."

Walz used the moment to teach the frat boys an important lesson about voting and American politics—and a vitally important one in these times.

“It’s not about agreeing on every single core issue. It’s about that core belief."

He then listed off a series of beliefs that have all but become anathema to Republicans these days.

"This whole idea that you can’t agree that the election was fair, this whole idea that people should have personal freedoms, which is kind of like the politics are turning over.”

Walz was presumably referencing the shockingly intense lurch rightward that conservative politics, which purports to be about personal responsibility and "freedom" above all else, has made in recent years, and contrasting it with the Democrats' more open-minded—and Constitutional, for that matter—approach.

He then urged the young men to try to inspire their friends to engage with the election and go to the polls.

“Talk to your friends. Some of them are just gonna say, ‘Look, I’m not that into politics.’"
"The answer to that is, ‘Too damn bad! Politics is into you.'"

On social media, people applauded Walz for reaching young men, which could be a vital paradigm shift in the election at large.








Here's hoping Walz's influence on these young men is contagious.

Controversial Republican President Donald Trump's MAGA movement took a major hit in the midterms.

For some inexplicable reason, Bari Weiss' CBS News decided Katie Miller, the wife of Trump White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy and the Homeland Security Advisor Stephen Miller, was the expert to consult on why Tuesday's results went so badly for her husband's boss and her husband's Project 2025 Christian nationalist, White supremacist agenda.

Dems Share Important Reminder As Trump's 'One Big Beautiful Bill' Is Set To Take Effect In January

After Democrats swept midterm election races to win back both the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate in a clear repudiation of the Trump administration, people are sharing reminders that President Donald Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill" is set to take effect in January and that Americans could blame Democrats for stipulations Republicans put in the bill.

According to The Washington Post, the bill "includes the biggest reduction of funding for the federal safety net since at least the 1990s, targeting more than $1 trillion in social spending." The Post noted that the $3 trillion package "partially pays for its large price tag by slashing spending on Medicaid and food stamps (SNAP), which congressional Republicans maintain are rife with fraud."

Texas Election Results Reveal Just How Badly James Talarico Beat Ken Paxton—And We Love To See It

While election results in Texas have still not been fully tallied, the unofficial results have revealed that the election between Democrat James Talarico and Republican Ken Paxton in the race for the U.S. Senate was over before Election Day even hit because Talarico received more early votes than Paxton received in total.

The scale of Talarico’s victory was evident in the early-voting figures. He received 5,444,982 votes overall, including 4,397,474 cast before Election Day.
