Lisa Zarza ran several successful bars in Minnesota before Tim Walz's draconian COVID rules forced her into bankruptcy.

Walz was such a tyrant that during the pandemic, he ordered police to shoot residents with paintballs if they dared to leave the confines of their homes to sit on their porches.

The Gateway Pundit reported on the hundreds of millions of dollars scammed from taxpayers under Walz' watch.

Walz bragged about leaving his 87-year-old mother, who had just undergone heart surgery, alone in her home to fend for herself.

He even set up a snitch hotline for neighbors to report their neighbors for violating his draconian COVID restrictions.

According to The New York Post, when shelter-in-place and business closures first went into effect in March 2020, Lisa said she did everything she was supposed to.

But as the months wore on and the state slowly reopened, salons, bars and restaurants remained closed under Walz's orders.

In October 2020, Zarza and a group of fellow bar owners defied the order, an uprising that was quickly crushed by the Walz regime.

"I was threatened with arrests, I was threatened with fines. At the end of the entire lawsuit, my lawsuit including Attorney General fees was over $300,000. I filed personal bankruptcy," she said.

Meanwhile, it was business as usual around much of the state, the bar owner raged.

"Everything else, literally Target, Walmart, Home Depot. Everyone was open 100 percent. The same exact order that shut us down, opened them all up," Zarza recalled.

"He took away rights from the American people and from Minnesotans that he did not have a right to take."

She said she was stripped of her licenses to operate and has moved her business to Wisconsin.
