Summary
Former Los Angeles mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt criticized Minnesota Governor Tim Walz for defending the pardon of a convicted child rapist. Pratt’s post on social media was widely praised by conservatives, with many calling Walz’s defense “insane” and saying he has “zero morals.” Walz had argued that the rapist’s deportation did not make the US safer and that people should not be judged by their worst day. The pardon was granted by the Minnesota Board of Pardons, which includes Walz, the state Attorney General, and the state Chief Justice. The rapist, Tou Lue Vang, was convicted of repeatedly raping a 10-year-old girl and was scheduled to be deported before the pardon.

The pardon board’s decision was again scrutinized, and the victim’s story was retold. In the end, the scene felt like a familiar rerun, with each side playing their expected roles.
