Deep dives

Kamala Harris's VP Selection

Kamala Harris has chosen Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her running mate for the 2024 presidential election, a decision that left some political analysts surprised, as many believed a more moderate choice, such as Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, would be favorable. Harris's choice raises eyebrows not only due to Walz's radical political stances but also because of the growing anti-Semitism within the Democratic Party. Some commentators suggest Harris may have avoided choosing Shapiro due to his strong Jewish identity, which may not fit the progressive narrative of the party. The decision reflects a significant shift in the party's alignment, as it increasingly embraces far-left ideologies, exemplified by leaders like Ilhan Omar.
