The wife of Minnesota NFL star Adam Thielen is publicly bashing the selection of Gov. Tim Walz by Vice President Kamala Harris to be her running mate, saying he has been nothing but “bad, bad news” for the state since first taking office.
Caitlin Thielen, high school sweetheart and wife to the wide receiver since 2015, didn’t hold back from sharing how disastrous Walz has been for residents in her home state where she said crime has spiraled out of control. “Oh man.. bad bad news. He has run Minneapolis into the ground,” she tweeted on Tuesday just minutes after news of Walz’s selection broke. Earlier in the morning she reposted a video from downtown Minneapolis following the Black Lives Matter protests of 2020, where an epicenter of outrage led to violent confrontations, a massive police presence, and billions of dollars in damage to public and private properties.

Her feelings were summed up in a post by Turning Point USA’s Charlie Kirk that Caitlin Thielen retweeted. In it, the conservative influencer states to Walz, “You helped ignite the George Floyd riots, the worst the country had seen in decades. While Minneapolis burned, you stalled on deploying the National Guard for an entire day, blaming the city for not submitting the right paperwork. You let your daughter leak the Guard’s deployment plans online, so that rioters would know how long they had to loot the city with impunity. Minneapolis is a war zone because of you.”
Welcome to the race, Tim Walz!
Let’s make sure America knows who you are.

Kirk continued: “Just days after the attempted murder of Donald Trump, you called him and his supporters “fascists,” egging on the same rhetoric that led to him being shot in the first place.”
Caitlin Thielen was still busy highlighting the posts of other Minnesotans as of late Tuesday morning, including one by podcaster Michele Tafoya. “I have lived in Minnesota since 1994. It has gone from being one of the safest, prettiest places in the US to — under @GovTimWalz — one of the saddest. Police morale has plummeted. More people have left than moved in,” Tafoya wrote. “Walz is a an excellent liar. He let our cities burn, has lost over half a billion taxpayer dollars in the last four years to scandal, blamed the spread of Covid on youth sports, I could go on…”

Adam Thielen played for Minnesota State before signing with the Minnesota Vikings for 10 seasons. He is with the Carolina Panthers for the second half of his career, though he and Caitlin continue to call Woodbury, MN home, a suburb about 20 miles east of Minneapolis. Unlike his wife, Adam has been much more reserved about his political leanings. He was among a dozen Vikings members to visit a George Floyd tribute memorial in 2020, according to CBS, but otherwise has remained silent about the 2024 presidential election.
