Walz posts video changing his car's air filter while warning of Project 2025

 Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz posted a video of him changing the air filter on his car while warning of the consequences of Project 2025, the policy proposal authored by conservatives that the Harris campaign has sought to frame as the road map for a possible future Trump administration.

In the video, Walz leans over the open hood of a turquoise truck parked at his home in St. Paul, Minnesota, where he inspects the car’s “old school carburetor” and its air filter.

“You can always tell something about somebody’s maintenance when how clean their air filter is,” he said.

Walz then drew a comparison between the owner’s manual of the vehicle and Project 2025, which he said provides instructions for former President Donald Trump and Ohio Sen. JD Vance to “stick it to the middle class” through policies he says would provide tax cuts to wealth Americans.

“They didn’t create that Project 2025 just to have it sit around as a doorstop,” he said. “We know who these guys are. We know they got a playbook to rig the economy. Let’s make sure it doesn’t.”

Walz ended the video by referring back to his car’s mechanics, holding his car’s air filter while suggesting that someone who’s car has a clean air filter indicates they “do good maintenance.”

“And you can always tell again, somebody, if they keep a clean air filter, they do good maintenance,” he said.
