Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, the Democratic vice presidential nominee, is facing intense scrutiny over his repeated associations with Muslim cleric Asad Zaman.

The Washington Examiner's report details at least five instances where Walz hosted Zaman, including sensitive meetings on mosque security and a state address invocation.

Zaman openly celebrated Hamas' brutal October 7 attack on Israel and shockingly promoted a film glorifying Adolf Hitler. His social media is riddled with antisemitic content and unapologetic support for Hamas, raising alarming questions about Walz's judgment.

The Anti-Defamation League has sounded the alarm, urging public officials to cut ties with Zaman immediately. Critics are outraged, pointing to Zaman's sickening justification of the October 7 attacks and his promotion of neo-Nazi conspiracy theories as clear red flags that Walz seemingly ignored.

As Walz campaigns alongside Vice President Kamala Harris, this scandal threatens to derail their message.

The governor now faces mounting pressure to explain his relationship with Zaman and address these deeply troubling associations that have left many voters stunned and demanding answers.
