Megyn Kelly blasts ‘Tampon Tim’ Walz over hjs ‘radical’ trans policies: ‘He’s another Gavin Newsom’

Megyn Kelly blasted Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as “the most radical” choice for Vice President Kamala Harris’ 2024 running mate — mocking him as “Tampon Tim” for providing free menstrual products to boys.

“I’ve been thinking about Walz since yesterday. He’s the most radical they could find on the trans issue,” the former NBC and Fox anchor said during her Wednesday broadcast of SiriusXM’s “The Megyn Kelly Show.”

Under Walz’s governorship, Minnesota was declared a “refuge state” that offers legal protection to children who travel there for so-called gender affirming care, including puberty blockers, reconstructive genital surgery, and hormone therapy as well as for doctors who perform the operations.

Kelly likened the progressive Walz to Democratic California Gov. Gavin Newsom, who recently passed a controversial a law designed to keep parents in the dark about their kids’ gender identities.

“There’s just almost no daylight between those two, if any, at all,” she said, adding: “He scares me because he actually could become the vice president and potentially the president.”

In a separate post to her X account Wednesday, Kelly called Walz “Tampon Tim” — a reference to his policy of providing free period products to elementary school children, including transgender kids.

The law signed last year requires that tampons and other products be made available in boys’ and girls’ bathrooms at schools for children between grades 4 and 12.

Walz was tapped by Harris on Tuesday and later joined her at a rally in Philadelphia.

“He had that rally in the palm of his hand,” Kelly said, adding that he outshined Harris as an orator.

“He’s way more effective than she is, or Joe Biden is.”

Kelly said that watching Walz speak gave her “a feeling of fear rise up in my throat.”

“Because I know what he’s permitting in Minnesota when it comes to children,” she said.

Several Republican-run states have banned gender affirming care for minors. Medical professionals who perform the procedures run the risk of losing their medical license.

“I care about children. And he is pedal to the metal, full steam ahead on all of it,” Kelly said of Walz.

“So when I watched him dazzle last night – I’m not going to vote for him, I’ve been honest about that – but I recoiled… I see why she chose him.”

The Post has sought comment from Walz and the Harris campaign.
