Walter Hudson, a Minnesota state legislator, posted several comments on his social media account on September 19, 2025, questioning standards of free speech and the handling of alleged misinformation in public discourse.
In a post published at 17:32 UTC, Hudson challenged recent calls to "resist," asking "Resist what? Not being able to knowingly lie on national television? Not being able to wish people dead and keep your job? Sit down."
Later that day, at 17:52 UTC, he addressed Governor Tim Walz directly with a rhetorical question about free speech and misinformation. Hudson wrote, "This you, Tim Walz? By your own standard, 'there's no guarantee of free speech on misinformation.' Jimmy Kimmel knowingly lied and pledged to continue lying after being instructed by his bosses to apologize. Your hypocrisy is off the charts."
In a third post at 20:01 UTC, Hudson expressed skepticism regarding an incident involving staff or volunteers after a review of security footage. He stated, " It wasn't any staff member or volunteer, they say. They reviewed security footage and made that determination. Okay. So. Who was it then? Did nobody notice? Why did it take social media noticing to address it?"
Hudson has previously engaged in discussions about public accountability and transparency in government communication. As a Minnesota legislator known for his active presence online, he frequently comments on matters concerning free speech and political conduct.
