ai generated text

Kamala Harris has chosen Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her running mate for the 2024 presidential election. Walz, a former teacher and member of the US Army National Guard, has been a frontrunner in recent weeks due to his effective attacks on Donald Trump and JD Vance. Harris announced Walz's selection in a text message to supporters on Tuesday, citing his "battle-tested leadership" and "incredible track record of getting things done for Minnesota families." Walz has been a progressive leader in Minnesota, signing bills to legalize cannabis, increase worker protections, and expand background checks for gun purchases. He has also been a vocal advocate for issues such as free school meals and climate change. Harris and Walz will appear together in Philadelphia at an evening rally, with Harris set to formally clinch the nomination.

1. The first major decision a party nominee makes is their choice for vice president. And Kamala Harris has made a great decision in choosing Governor Tim Walz to be her running mate.
2. I've known Tim Walz for nearly two decades, first during his time in Congress and as Governor.A husband and father, he's been a school teacher and a high school football coach. He served for 24 years in the Army National Guard and became the highest ranking enlisted soldier to ever serve in Congress. As Governor, he's been a strong, principled, and effective leader.

1. And how often in the world do you make that bastard wake up afterwards and know that a Black woman kicked his arse and sent him on the road?
2. Israel is our truest and closest ally in the region, with a commitment to values of personal freedoms and liberties, surrounded by a pretty tough neighborhood.
3. These are weird people on the other side: They want to take books away. They want to be in your exam room.

7. They keep talking about the middle class. A robber baron real estate guy and a venture capitalist trying to tell us they understand who we are? They don't know who we are.
