#VicePresident #KamalaHarris has #brilliant #economic #pitch.
Harris is drawing a clear distinction between her and Trump, because her #plans will actually #provide #practical #help for the poor and #middleclass.
#VicePresident #KamalaHarris is zeroing in on #high #foodprices as #inflation remains a big #issue in the #presidential #race
Harris is putting particular #emphasis on rising #meat #prices, which she says account for a large part of rising #grocery #bills.
#VicePresident #KamalaHarris’ sudden #political #rise echoes that of another #female #politician, #NewZealand’s #JacindaArdern
Ardern’s #whirlwind #campaign and #tenure also shows some #pitfalls other #Female #leaders, like Harris, might face, including being compelled to appear as #competent and #likable while fending off #hateful #attacks.

#VicePresident #KamalaHarris’s #Vibes Are #Great, but Vibes Won’t Cut It on #Israel #Policy.
Unless Harris takes some steps to break from #President #JoeBiden’s #Israel #policy, the same issue that helped tank him could put major #obstacles in her #path to #victory.

In a #video published to #socialmedia on Wednesday, Harris could be seen telling Walz, “I called you, Tim. I called you, Tim. You didn’t answer, Tim.”
“Yes. I know. I know,” he replied.
#Minnesota #Governor #TimWalz Believes in the #CommonGood.
Since Walz surged into #competition to be #VicePresident #KamalaHarris’s #runningmate, a certain #photo started appearing everywhere. In it, a #smiling TimWalz is being #hugged by #happy #children.

#Trump seeks to #delay his #hushmoney #sentencing on 34 Felony Counts until after the #election
His #lawyers say they are seeking to have the #conviction #overturned on #immunity #grounds.
But in reality, in a detail the #journalistic #story left out, Trump wants his #sentencing #delayed until after the #election in hopes he can #pardon himself.

Seeing #Falling #PollNumbers, #Trump turns to #targeting #Trans People in #Montana.
#DonaldTrump took the #stage this week in #Montana for his first #rally since #VicePresident #KamalaHarris chose #TimWalz as her #RunningMate.
Spreading #hate and #bigotry towards #Transgender #people was the main focus of his #ire.

The #GOP is attempting to weaponize #TimWalz’s support for trans people.
#Conservatives are reframing Walz’ #protrans stance as somehow #harming #society, but #Minnesotan #trans #legislator #LeighFinke remains #unbothered by the #noise.
#DonaldTrump #lies to #Rally #crowd: falsely #claiming #TimWalz let the #Minesotta “#kidnap #children to #change their #gender”.
The #law they're referring to prevents #Redstate #courts from #removing #custody from a supportive #parent because they #allowed their #kid to get perfectly #legal #genderaffirmingcare.
