Gwen Walz, the wife of Democratic vice-presidential candidate Tim Walz, recently took to the campaign trail with her “teacher voice” to scold J.D. Vance for daring to criticize teachers and fertility treatments.
During a solo event in Virginia, Walz had her moment in the spotlight, delivering a sharp rebuke to Vance’s comments about family and reproduction. And in true teacher fashion, she dramatically placed her glasses on the edge of her nose and told Vance to “mind [his] own business.” The crowd ate it up, of course, because nothing riles up the base quite like a good scolding.
For those keeping score, this all started when Vance—who’s not exactly known for holding back—criticized left-wing leaders like Randi Weingarten, head of the American Federation of Teachers, for having no children of their own while pushing progressive education policies. Vance’s point, blunt as it may be, was that people without kids shouldn’t be the ones shaping the minds of other people’s children. Naturally, this didn’t sit well with the Walz camp, who are now portraying Vance as some sort of anti-family villain for his stance on IVF and his critique of childless teachers.
But let’s be clear here—Vance isn’t attacking all teachers or families struggling with infertility. What he’s pushing back on is the hypocrisy of elites like Weingarten trying to “brainwash” kids with their leftist agendas while having no personal stake in the matter. It’s not exactly the same thing as what Gwen Walz would have you believe. And speaking of selective outrage, Walz conveniently glossed over the fact that she and her husband didn’t actually use IVF—they used IUI, which carries far less political controversy. But in the heat of the moment, who needs facts when you’ve got a juicy narrative to spin?
She’s not going to help her husband with this kind of attitude. There’s nothing worse than a snarky woman who’s got the stage.

Oh, and if Gwen’s Friday event wasn’t enough drama, she also decided to drag Donald Trump into the mix, accusing him of putting access to IVF at risk nationwide. Never mind that this whole conversation started because her husband was trying to paint Vance as anti-IVF without much basis. The Walzes seem more focused on scoring points than actually addressing the issue.
And now, she’s done it again. Insert eye roll…are these people for real?
NEW: Tim Walz’s wife talks to Kamala Harris voters like children, puts her teacher glasses on and says she has an “assignment due on November 5.”
“I’m here with an assignment for you today. It’s due on November 5th.”

What we’re left with is another round of political theater where facts take a back seat, and emotional manipulation is front and center. It’s classic Democratic playbook stuff—stoke outrage, twist the narrative, and hope no one notices the contradictions. Meanwhile, Vance, unapologetically direct, is the one being painted as the bad guy for having the audacity to point out the uncomfortable truth: sometimes, the loudest voices in the room are the ones with the least skin in the game.
This is @Tim_Walz’s unhinged wife @GwenWalz competing for the role as runner up to the First Gentleman of the United States of America. At the risk of stating the obvious, this woman is a mental case. Leftists have succeeded at promoting and normalizing mental illness, and Gwen… pic.twitter.com/HUuRWRXSt4
