The Meidas Touch reports:
Tim Walz loves dogs. He posts photos of himself with dogs all the time. He also loves his dog, Scout, and frequently takes him to dog parks and posts photos from the park. This has led the a new right-wing conspiracy today, which is International Dog Day.
Yes, the same people who spent weeks trying to create fake “stolen valor” claims out of nothing, are now trying to create a new conspiracy about Walz’s dog.
The conspiracy was started by Dustin Grage, who lists himself on his Twitter bio as “Minnesota GOP Hype Man” and a columnist for the right-wing website TownHall.com. In his post, Grange claims that Walz is lying about taking his dog Scout to a dog park because the dog on the photo is not Scout.
Read the full article. Walz regularly posts photos and videos of the dogs he meets when he’s out walking Scout. Grage’s post has nearly 5 million views at this writing.
Can someone @CommunityNotes this guy?
They’re deceptively trying to say that the dog that Tim Walz is petting at a dog park is his, when his dog Scout is clearly in the video.
They’re so desperate.

Theory one: In Oct. 2022, Walz made a dad joke about having fun with another dog (not Scout) at the dog park, while also releasing video of Scout playing w that dog.
Theory two: Scout has been replaced by Scout II, a CCP spy, and the scheme has been busted by patriots. pic.twitter.com/a2bB1Us2ri

Yes, this is Tim Walz tweeting about his dog Scout. Only problem is that these are two completely different dogs. pic.twitter.com/NkRgbQQm76
