Kamala Harris’s VP Selection Is Another Failed Leftist
Washington, DC – The Republican Jewish Coalition released the following statement in response to VP Kamala Harris’s selection of MN Governor Tim Walz as the Democrats’ vice presidential candidate. RJC CEO Matt Brooks said:
Today, California radical Kamala Harris selected far left liberal Tim Walz as her running mate. This is the same guy who famously said, “One person's socialism is another person's neighborliness.” Seriously?
This isn’t the Democratic Party of your parents or grandparents. Let’s be clear: if elected, the Harris-Walz ticket would be, by far, the most left-wing President and Vice President in US history.
Of particular concern for the American Jewish community is Governor Walz’s embrace of the most vicious anti-Israel and antisemitic Member of Congress, Ilhan Omar. Walz has endorsed and supported this notorious Squad member for years, championing her as a “progressive leader” in Congress. This is the same disgraceful Ilhan Omar who has trafficked antisemitic conspiracy theories, falsely accused Israel of genocide and apartheid, and voted against funding for the Iron Dome missile defense system that is currently protecting countless innocent civilians in Israel from terrorist rockets.
Governor Walz’s failed record in Minnesota also includes:
- Going completely AWOL in the summer of 2020 when he let rioters burn sections of Minneapolis to the ground.
- Signing a bill to reduce prison sentences for violent criminals.
- Gaslighting parents and business owners during draconian COVID lockdowns, saying that it, “Wasn’t that bad.”
- Covering up Joe Biden’s obvious mental decline, saying it was "ageism" for Americans to be concerned about Biden's health and stamina.
- Signing a bill to give illegal immigrants free tuition, drivers licenses, and health benefits; and saying he should invest in a "ladder factory" to help illegal immigrants climb the border wall.
And that’s just what he did while serving as Governor of Minnesota - imagine the far Left nightmare that he and Kamala Harris would unleash on America if the Democrats win in November.
Our country is at an inflection point, and we need strong conservative leadership now more than ever. Clearly Kamala Harris’s priorities are not our priorities, and the American people will reject her and Tim Walz’s extremism in this election.
