From Fox News: Former Education Secretary Betsy DeVos issued a warning about Kamala Harris’ running mate Tim Walz after American Federation of Teachers union president Randi Weingarten celebrated him joining the Democratic ticket.
The U.S. secretary of education under Trump made the comment in response to a video posted on the ATF X account of Weingarten expressing her elation that Harris selected a “teacher and a union member” as her pick for vice president.
“We’re so excited…we have known him for years as a social studies teacher, as a vet, as a union member, as a congressman, as a governor, he cares about working people. We’ve seen it,” a visibly eager Weingarten says in the clip. “He knows how to get things done. It is such a great day for America that we’re going to have Kamala Harris and Tim Walz on the ticket for the future, for freedom, for opportunity, for America, for American families.
“Anyone who makes Randi this excited is a 5-alarm fire for parents and students,” DeVos wrote on X Tuesday.
