Walter Moist, a queer-identified activist, has been subject to 78 legal charges, including domestic violence and stalking. This man has been endorsed by the Democrats. He is running for your school board. And did we mention that he has a "trans kid?”

WHISTLEBLOWERS in McHenry County have been working to expose a very disturbing situation unfolding in Crystal Lake, Illinois. Democrats have endorsed a dangerous man for the school board. Walter Moist, who is running for the D155 school district board, describes himself as a "queer" veteran who has a "transgender child." Moist has proudly attended Pride marches with his child and openly supports gender ideology, seeing no issue with emotionally vulnerable children transitioning. His child has clearly been groomed to believe that he is no longer a boy, and Moist proudly uses him for favor in his campaign.
Alarmingly, investigations have uncovered that Moist has an extensive criminal record, having been charged 78 times. A simple search on the McHenry County Circuit Court Clerk website yields 78 results for "Moist, Walter.” Among these court entanglements, his wife obtained an order of protection against him, including an emergency order that was granted and later extended. They are currently involved in an ongoing custody dispute.
Moist has been charged with stalking, disorderly conduct, drug paraphernalia possession, and more—yet he is being endorsed by the Democratic Party. His most well-known reported crime was fabricating a police report about child abuse. According to a 2017 arrest report from Crystal Lake, Moist was arrested for filing a false child abuse report, with his bond set at $10,000. A newspaper clipping from the Northwest Herald, McHenry County's only daily newspaper, confirms the same information. Filing a fraudulent child abuse report is unacceptable behavior for a Democrat-endorsed school board candidate, and not someone the citizens of Illinois should be expected to trust with their children.

The state has pursued felony charges against Walter Moist for:
- Filing false child abuse reports
- Criminal trespassing
- Theft
- Disorderly conduct
These cases have cost him thousands of dollars. Additionally, Moist has been charged with:
- Illegal consumption of alcohol by a minor
- Domestic battery
- Battery causing bodily harm
- Three charges of contempt in family court
- Interference with the reporting of domestic violence
- Possession of cannabis (multiple times)
- Driving under the influence
- Possession of drug paraphernalia (multiple times)

Some of his reckless driving charges may seem minor, but the sheer number of violations speaks to Moist's instability and impulsive mindset:
- Driving with a suspended license (multiple times)
- Driving with his lights off
- Tampering with a motor vehicle
- Driving with a suspended registration (multiple times)
- Improper use of registration/title
- Unlawful parking (multiple times)
- Speeding (multiple times)
- Driving without a license
- Illegal stopping
- Operating an uninsured vehicle (multiple times)
- Driving without a seatbelt
- Unsafe backing on a roadway
- Overloading an axle
- Improper turning at an intersection
- Improper traffic lane usage
- Failure to reduce speed
- Leaving the scene of an accident
- Disobeying weigh signs
- Failure to yield
- Failure to stop at a stop sign
- Driving while using a phone
Further displaying his erratic behavior, Moist arrogantly boasted on Facebook about sending an unsolicited photo of his penis to "troll a racist" and has publicly posted about chastity sex toys and BDSM.

A video taken from a McHenry County board meeting, captioned "People done pissed me off with their faux pride declaration," shows Moist claiming that McHenry County has been an "overt bastion of racism, bigotry, and discrimination" for as long as he can remember. In his public speech, he stated, "Christians, you get your pride months twice a year—it’s called Christmas and Easter… we ask for the right to be proud of who WE are … the same as those who believe in chemtrails and lizard people."
Moist went on to claim that we live on native land and cited indigenous cultures that believe in masculinity and femininity as one. This "two-spirit" concept has been widely discussed within trans activism. However, the term was unheard of until the 1990s, and many historians have debunked its historical legitimacy. In fact, Canadian Indigenous scholar Cherry Smiley, Ph.D., explained that the term "two-spirit" was coined by American activists in the 1990s. Many Indigenous communities do not appreciate their culture being misrepresented to justify contemporary beliefs about “gender fluidity” and other concepts that simply did not exist until recently. Walter Moist, however, believes otherwise.
Walter Moist is a deeply concerning individual seeking a position of power in McHenry, Illinois. We fear that he would abuse his role in schools to commit crimes or engage in other nefarious activities. The people of Illinois deserve to know what kind of man may be playing a major role in their children’s education. Moist is clearly not mentally stable enough to have influence over educational institutions for our kids. Mainstream media is afraid to touch the Walter Moist scandal. We, on the other hand, are not. Our RADAR News team investigates the criminals trying to infiltrate the government and education system, and we publish our own independent reports. Parents must know what is actually going on and who these people really are. Residents need to express their opposition before April, either in person or by phone at 866-262-6663 or 217-782-4321.
Gays Against Groomers DEMANDS that Walter Moist be REMOVED from the race for the D155 school district board—no excuses, no delays.
The Democratic Party of McHenry County, Illinois, is on notice: Withdraw your endorsement of Walter Moist immediately, and while you're at it, consider issuing a public apology to the moms and dads of Crystal Lake for allowing this to go unchecked.
