Kamala Harris selects Team Walsh as her vice presidential candidate

Kamala Harris has chosen Tim Walz as her vice presidential running mate.

Harris’ running mate is now making headlines in America. Tim Walz, the governor of Minnesota, who surpassed the likes of Josh Shapiro, the governor of Pennsylvania, and Mark Kelly, the senator from Arizona, as a seasoned figure in Congress known for years of House representation. Until the day he succeeded in leveraging his popularity as someone who won a seat in a conservative district for the Democratic Party to become the governor of his state. In Minnesota, he gained fame for his response to the challenges of the COVID era and his efforts to assist the people. He was also a staunch advocate for public closures, which critics of strict COVID policies see as a negative point.

The story of public protests following the murder of George Floyd by a police officer, a supporter of Trump, unfolded in his state. His defense of the civil and social rights of African Americans and his relentless efforts to bring the killer officer to justice have left a mark in the civil rights movement. Walz is a farmer’s son who lost his father in his early years and is familiar with pain. He is among the highest in terms of military and law enforcement service among American representatives and politicians.

He has been a school teacher and also a sports coach. Interestingly, he was a fan and lover of weapons and hunting until the day he joined the politicians’ efforts to restrict gun control due to the crisis of public massacres caused by the National Rifle Association. During his service in the National Guard, he was a member of the organization defending the rights of LGBTQ+ individuals in the army and National Guard.

These are parts of the adventurous life of Valz. He is an attractive and eloquent person who has reached the top of the Democrats’ political scene in just two weeks. He threw the term ‘Weird’ at Trump and Pence, gaining special popularity for it. Valz, whom Biden likes, Nancy Pelosi likes, progressives like Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez like, and even Senator Manchin, who dislikes progressives, has officially supported him. He has made one of the most unique ascents in the history of American politics.
