Laura Loomer who is known as a far-right internet personality and an activist from Florida is notorious for her inflammatory rhetoric dropped a bombshell when she alleged that Jeff Walz, the brother of Democratic Vice Presidential nominee Tim Walz, supports Donald Trump.
Her recent social media post has stirred a big controversy.
Laura Loomer claims Jeff Walz supported Donald Trump 2016
Laura Loomer claimed that Jeff Walz donated to Trump’s 2016 campaign but the veracity of the claims remains unverified.
Jeff Walz who is more known as Tim Walz’s Brother is largely anonymous and there is very little information available about him apart from his connection to Tim Walz and his residence in Florida.
Tim Walz has four siblings but one of his brothers, Craig Walz tragically died in a storm.
Jeff, is one of his siblings who lived in Florida but there is very little public information about his background or political affiliations.
Loomer wrote in the post:
“Tim Walz @GovTimWalz and @KamalaHarris are such a bad Presidential ticket that Walz’s own BROTHER is supporting Donald Trump instead. According to these FEC records, Jeff Walz, the brother of VP candidate Tim Walz, donated to President Trump’s presidential campaign in 2016. Jeff Walz lives in Florida. Perhaps I will go interview and ask him about his support for Donald Trump.”
According to the information available in the public domain Jeff Walz, the Walz family member who donated to, and apparently, still supports Donald Trump was Born and raised in Nebraska.
All the siblings including Tim Walz, his brother Jeff Walz, and his sister Sandy Dietrich all received their degrees from Chadron State College.
While Dietrich is mentioned as being in Alliance, Nebraska, and Jeff Walz lives in Florida in 2019.
In 2016 tragedy struck the family when Craig Walz, his younger brother was killed when a tree fell on his tent during a strong storm close to Duncan Lake in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area.
Craig Walz was the football coach at St. Charles High School in Minnesota in addition to being a chemistry, mathematics, and geometry instructor.
