A new photo of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s family shows some of those supporting his November challenger.
Eight members of Walz’s family posed for a photo wearing “Nebraska Walz’s for Trump” T-shirts while standing in front of a flag that read “Trump 2024 – Take America Back.”
The photo was initially shared by a family friend with a representative for former Nebraska gubernatorial candidate Charles W. Herbster, who first posted the image on X on Wednesday.
The people in the image are members of the Minnesota governor’s family through his grandfather’s brother, Herbster’s contact confirmed to DailyMail.com about the identities of the individuals and their relationship to Gov. Walz.
“Tim Walz’s family in Nebraska wants you to know something…” Herbster captioned the image.

The photo quickly went viral among MAGA users, who say her own family’s opposition to her candidacy is proof that people should be careful about voting for a Harris-Walz ticket.
The Kamala Harris-Tim Walz campaign did not respond to DailyMail.com’s request for comment on the image and the growing number of family members demonstrating in support of the Republican ticket of Donald Trump and JD Vance.
The latest faction of pro-Trump Walz family members comes after it was revealed that the Democratic vice presidential nominee’s brother warned against people allowing him into the White House.
Jeff Walz, 67, lives in Florida and is the older brother of Kamala Harris’ running mate. Last week, he posted a message on Facebook about his brother’s character.
“I am 100% against his entire ideology,” he said in one of the posts.
But Jeff now admits he had no intention of influencing voters with his social media activity.
“It was not my intention, it was not our intention as a family, to put something out there to influence the general public,” Jeff Walz told NewsNation.
“I was getting a lot of comments from my friends, old acquaintances, thinking that I felt the same as my brother on those issues, and I was trying to clarify that only to my friends,” he continued.
“I used Facebook, which was not the appropriate platform to do so, but I must admit that I do not agree with their policies.”

A growing number of Walz’s relatives are opposing his vice presidential bid, with Kamala Harris leading the Democratic ticket.
Tim Walz’s estranged brother, Jeff (pictured left with his wife Laurie), said on Facebook last week that the Minnesota governor “is not the kind of person you want making decisions about your future.”
Other Facebook users urged the married father of two to support Trump’s campaign.
Jeff, who lives in Freeport, Florida, with his wife Laurie, went on to respond to others who told him to “speak up… at this crucial time in history.”
“I’ve thought a lot about doing something like that. I’m torn between that and just leaving my family out of it,” Jeff replied.
“The stories he could tell. He’s not the kind of character you want making decisions about your future.”
He noted that it has been eight years since he spoke to his younger brother Tim.
