On Tuesday morning, the identity of Kamala Harris's pick for running mate leaked to the public. According to several sources close to the matter, the pick was none other than the radical Democrat governor of Minnesota, Tim Walz.

Remember when the loony liberals who became Democratic Party presidential nominees tempered their looniness by choosing moderate running mates? In 2000, for instance, the environmental-apocalypse-mongering lunatic Al Gore chose the bland-yet-respected moderate Democratic Sen. Joe Lieberman of Connecticut. On Tuesday, however, prominent conservatives on the social media platform X used...

Vance provided more input to the announcement. "My view on it is it just highlights how radical Kamala Harris is," Vance said. "This is a person who listened to the Hamas wing of her own party," he continued. "This is a guy who has proposed shipping more manufacturing jobs to China, wants to make the American people more reliant on garbage energy instead of good American energy, and has proposed defunding the police just as Kamala Harris does," he added. "Tim Walz allowed rioters to burn down Minneapolis in the summer of 2020 and the few that got caught, Kamala Harris helped bailed them out of jail," Vance noted.

His supporters touted his record of accomplishing progressive goals in Minnesota, despite a razor-thin Democratic majority—as well as his success in a midwestern state—as reasons why he would make a strong vice president. The Trump campaign reacted to the news in a statement. "It's no surprise that San Francisco Liberal Kamala Harris wants West Coast wannabe Tim Walz as her running-mate – Walz has spent his governorship trying to reshape Minnesota in the image of the Golden State," the statement reads. "While Walz pretends to support Americans in the Heartland, when the cameras are off, he believes that rural America is 'mostly cows and rocks.'" The statement continued, "From proposing his own carbon-free agenda, to suggesting stricter emission standards for gas-powered cars, and embracing policies to allow convicted felons to vote, Walz is obsessed with spreading California's dangerously liberal agenda far and wide. If Walz won't tell voters the truth, we will: just like Kamala Harris, Tim Walz is a dangerously liberal extremist, and the Harris-Walz California dream is every American's nightmare." "This is what happened to Minnesota while Gov Tim Walz was in charge. Never forget," Libs of TikTok wrote. WATCH: This is what happened to Minnesota while Gov Tim Walz was in charge.

During the Floyd riots, he allowed a mob of thugs to burn a police station to the ground right in the middle of Minneapolis. Everything you need to know about him can be seen here. A thousand words, as they say," Matt Walsh commented. This is the image that defines Tim Walz.

Tim Walz faces new scrutiny on how he handled the George Floyd riots, as Vice President Kamala Harris has selected him as her running mate for the 2024 election. Protests of George Floyd's death at the hands of Minneapolis police in May 2020 soon escalated into violence, as rioters burned and looted businesses in the Twin Cities. Walz resisted sending in the National Guard to address the escalating violence in the city for three days but ultimately chose to do so after receiving heavy criticism from residents for allowing the city to burn after rioters overwhelmed the state and local police force. At the time, Walz argued that calling up the National Guard to enforce order would only incite further rioting, and suggested that protesters needed the space to express their outrage. 'I want to just be clear there's philosophically an argument to be made that an armed presence on the ground in the midst of where we just had a police killing is seen as a catalyst,' he said during a press conference. After the third night of rioting, where a police precinct was set on fire, Walz admitted they had failed to properly respond to the violence.

Gov. Tim Walz is the new running mate for communist Kamala Harris. He is the furthest left of the VP picks, and his selection makes one thing clear: the hardcore left is going for it. They will move quickly to finish us off.

The Democrats who did not make the cut in the veepstakes spoke out on Tuesday after Vice President Kamala Harris picked Minnesota Governor Tim Walz to be her running mate. Walz edged out Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear, Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ), and Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg to join Harris’ ticket. Walz and Shapiro were reportedly the final two frontrunners. In a lengthy statement, Shapiro said he had the opportunity to speak to the vice president on Sunday about her “vision for the role and the campaign ahead.” After noting that the choice of running mate was a ” deeply personal decision” for himself and Harris, Shapiro said he still has work to do while serving as Pennsylvania’s governor. “I know that Governor Tim Walz is an exceptionally strong addition to the ticket who will help Kamala move our country forward. Lori and I consider Tim and Gwen to be good friends of ours and we are excited for them and for the country to get to know the great people we know them to be,” Shapiro said. Shapiro, who insisted that Harris has his “enthusiastic support,” concluded, “Over the next 90 days, I look forward to traveling all across the Commonwealth to unite Pennsylvanians behind Kamala Harris’ campaign to defeat Donald Trump, become the 47th President of the United States, and build a better future for our country.” WATCH THE TRAILER FOR ‘AM I RACIST?’ — A MATT WALSH COMEDY ON DEI Harris and Walz are expected to make their first appearance together as running mates in Philadelphia later on Tuesday. Shapiro indicated he would be in attendance, saying on X, “See you tonight in Philly.” Beshear said on X that it was an “honor” to be considered in the process. Walz “is a great friend and a great choice,” Beshear said, adding that he “fully” supports the ticket and will work to get Harris elected president. Also on X, Kelly said Harris and Walz “are going to move us forward” and are “already building a campaign to unite our country.” Kelly added that he and his wife, Gabby Giffords, are “ready to do everything we can to help them win.” Like Kelly, Buttigieg did not mention the vetting process in his first public statement about the Harris-Walz ticket. He said on X, “Tim Walz is an exceptionally effective governor – and also great to work with. I’m excited for what his Midwestern voice, military experience, and common-sense values will bring to our winning ticket, and for everything the Harris-Walz administration will deliver for Americans.”
