Minnesota Governor Tim Walz is facing a wave of drive-by taunts at the governor’s mansion in St. Paul, with motorists slowing down to shout “retard.”
The comments echo President Donald Trump’s recent jab, calling him “seriously retarded” in a post on Truth Social on Thanksgiving.
The trend really kicked off after Walz whined during a press conference earlier this month, calling Trump’s use of the word “shameful” and claiming that people were driving by his house and shouting it.
“This creates danger,” Walz told reporters on December 5. “And I’ll tell you what. In my time on this, I’d never seen this before: People driving by my house and using the R-word in front of people.”
The driver appears to yell toward the gated property before speeding off. While audio is muffled in circulated clips, the context and reports confirm they shouted “retard.”
The footage, first shared widely on X, has racked up hundreds of thousands of views and sparked heated debates.
An account called “American Papa Bear” posted the clip on X, writing, “TIM WALZ IS NOT SAFE EVEN ON CHRISTMAS!”
“More Patriotic Americans record themselves yelling r*tard outside of the Minnesota home of Tim Walz!” the post added. “I love this energy!!

The video had over 7,000 likes as of Saturday evening.
Liberals and media figures have slammed the behavior as “bullying,” including CNN’s Jake Tapper, who urged people to “stop being awful.”
Everyone really needs to take a breath and stop being awful, stop rewarding awfulness, and stop promoting awfulness with your algorithms.
Happy & fulfilled & confident people don’t spend time doing any of this. https://t.co/Gv9yvOMxb8

“Everyone really needs to take a breath and stop being awful, stop rewarding awfulness, and stop promoting awfulness with your algorithms,” Tapper complained. “Happy & fulfilled & confident people don’t spend time doing any of this.”
This isn’t the first time Walz has faced public backlash. His tenure has been marred by controversies, including billions in alleged fraud tied to Somali-linked programs and criticism over his COVID policies.
The drive-by heckling is a sure sign of frustration in Minnesota.
