Elated Democrat lawmakers are celebrating after Kamala Harris announced she has chosen a progressive, far-left Democrat governor to be her running mate.
“As a governor, a coach, a teacher, and a veteran, he’s delivered for working families like his. It’s great to have him on the team,” Harris declared Tuesday morning, as she announced Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her VP choice.
Meanwhile, Walz, who just last week voiced his support for socialism, has been exposed as one of the most radical picks Harris could have made.
But Democrats are cheering in support of Walz.
Somalian refugee Rep. Ilhan Omar (Minn.) wrote, “Congratulations to our next Vice President @Tim_Walz 🥳. Our North Star state Governor has signed universal school meals, paid family and sick leave, marijuana legalization, and protections for reproductive rights into law. Bringing Minnesota nice to the ticket 💪🏽.”

Democrat socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY) cheered, “Vice President Harris made an excellent decision in Gov. Walz as her running mate. Together, they will govern effectively, inclusively, and boldly for the American people. They won’t back down under tight odds, either – from healthcare to school lunch. Let’s do this 💪🏽.”

Socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) wrote, “.@Tim_Walz is a great asset to @KamalaHarris’ winning campaign & administration. He is a former public school teacher, football coach, and strong union supporter. As governor, he delivered for working families in MN. As VP, he will deliver for the working families of the US.”
