Out of Control Tim Walz Pardons, Releases Illegal Child Rapist, Now ICE Likely Can’t Deport Him
The content criticizes Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, attributing to him a legacy of incompetence and shame. It highlights his controversial decision to pardon Tou Lue Vang, an illegal alien who was convicted of repeated sexual abuse of a 10-year-old girl and had his criminal record cleared through a pardon issued by Walz and other officials. The article emphasizes that this pardon may hinder deportation efforts and prevent justice for the victim. It also criticizes Walz for his political decisions, including his opposition to ICE enforcement and his announcement of not seeking re-election, implying that his actions and policies have negatively impacted community safety and justice.
Minnesota Democratic Gov. Tim Walz’s legacy will be one of incompetence, bringing shame to the office he still holds until the end of this year.
Walz has made the decision to pardon an illegal alien sex offender, and this could impede deportation efforts by Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
The Department of Homeland Security issued a news release Wednesday about 42-year-old Tou Lue Vang, a Laotian national who repeatedly sexually abused a 10-year-old girl between 2002 and 2004. He was convicted of first-degree criminal sexual conduct in 2006.

Vang first came to the United States in 1994, residing in California. He’d been granted legal status by the Clinton administration, but upon his conviction, this was revoked.
The New York Times noted the Minnesota pardon was granted by a board consisting of Walz, Minnesota Democratic Attorney General Keith Ellison, and the state’s chief Supreme Court Justice Natalie Hudson.
Vang had submitted a letter regretting his actions, hoping the board would assist him in staying with his wife and six children.
Vang was 18 at the time of this crime, outrageously trying to justify his vile behavior as cultural, saying, “it is a cultural thing… to marry and have sex with girls as young as 12.” He also tried blaming the victim and said she should be arrested too.
Acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis remarked that “this pardon will take away this child rapist’s qualifying convictions that made him removable from the United States.”
The New York Times noted that Vang now effectively has a clean record because of the pardon.
Without the crime being a factor, deportation will be difficult.
This isn’t only about justice for the little girl he hurt. It’s about the safety of the community in which Vang dwells.
Walz is going to make his final months in office as painful as possible.
In January, as the governor fought ICE officers trying to enforce the law after a scandal broke involving Minnesota’s Somali population stealing tax dollars to start daycares and home health companies, NBC News reported that Walz said this was his last year in politics.
“I will never run for an elected office again. Never again,” he said, seeing the writing on the wall.
Can you imagine if this person had become vice president?
The country truly avoided a disaster with President Donald Trump’s return to office.
