The lower right is Gov #Walz posing with his kids, their dog and cat.
One of these things is not like the other.

The truth hurts, right #WeirdDonOLD?

The #Harris-#Walz attacks seem to be getting under #Trump's skin.
"I'm very angry at her ... I think I'm entitled to personal attacks. I don't have a lot of respect for her. I don't have a lot of respect for her intelligence … She certainly attacks me, personally. She actually called me weird. 'He’s weird'. It was just a sound bite. And she called JD and I weird."

Tim #Walz at Boston fundraiser, per pool:
“I feel like one of my roles in this now is to be the anti-Tommy Tuberville, to show that football coaches are not the dumbest people.”
Watching the tape of #Walz campaigning in #Nebraska today. Seeing the Nebraska crowd - a crowd that in many ways looks and sounds very different from the crowds in places I’ve lived - so happy and enthusiastic for #HarrisWalz gives me hope for this country. People all across the country are fighting for a Democratic administration this November. Let’s gooooo!

Remember when John Kerry was Swiftboated by Chris LaCivita who is doing it to Tim #Walz now? Guess who funded it? Harlan Crow, the billionaire who has been lavishing freebies on Clarence Thomas.
Griffin:
NBC News has now obtained the audio of #Trump praising Gov. #Walz for his handling of protests of the death of George Floyd.
In the audio, Trump told a group of governors that Walz "dominated" and was an "excellent guy."
"I know Gov. Walz is on the phone, and we spoke, and I fully agree with the way he handled it the last couple of days."
"I was very happy with the last couple of days, Tim."
ABC News first obtained the audio.
🎯Griffin:
Gov. #Walz tonight in Milwaukee: "You know, it was only a month ago that the Republican Party gathered here for their convention, right here on this very spot. It doesn't sound like any of you watched it, but in case you didn't, after promising us a speech that was going to be about unity and promising that he was a changed man, Donald #Trump subjected us to 92 minutes of ranting and raving insanity."
Via Emptywheel:
Sadly makes it less likely #Walz will be picked, just as we've all fallen in love with his State Fair updates and aggressive support for kids.

The best poll for Kamala #Harris this week?
SUSA has her leading 50% to 40% against Trump in Minnesota.
Their last poll: Biden was up 47/41. He won by 7% in 2020. https://kstp.com/kstp-news/top-news/kstp-surveyusa-poll-harris-takes-lead-over-trump-in-first-minnesota-poll/

BREAKING: #Minnesota Supreme Court rejects a right-wing lawsuit and unanimously upholds a law signed by Gov. Tim #Walz in 2023 that restores voting rights to over 55,000 Minnesotans with a previous felony conviction.

Chucky, Tim had already completed his 20 yrs. Second, you only went (for six months!) bc you were a doing PUBLIC AFFAIRS work / press releases there. You were a glorified bitch w a clipboard and a pen and, of course, your eyeliner.
#JD Vance:
You know what really bothers me about Tim #Walz?
When the US Marine Corps asked me to go to Iraq to serve my country, I did it.
Via Alexander S. Vindman:
#JDVance enlisted & served 4 yrs, including 6 months in Iraq in 2005 as a reporter w/ a Public Affairs section of a Marine Aircraft Wing 👍🏻
#Walz served 24 yrs earning 8 promotions & ending as a Command Sergeant Major, the highest NCO position. I don’t think JD wants to compare records but if he insists…
Acyn:
Vance attacking Walz: What’s bothers me about Tim Walz is this stolen valor garbage. Do not pretend to be something that you’re not.
Via Scott MacFarlane:
Per the campaign, “In the first 24 hours since Governor #Walz was announced as Vice President #Harris' running mate, Team Harris-Walz has raised $36 million dollars” #HarrisWalz2024

George Floyd's brother, Philonise, just endorsed the #Harris-#Walz campaign.
Floyd says of Gov. Walz: "He's built for this. He's built for this fight that he's going to go through and I think he can do it."
"If it wasn't for Gov. Walz, we would not be able to walk around and say that we got some accountability." https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-election/george-floyds-brother-endorses-harris-walz-says-minnesota-governor-bui-rcna166023
#Harris selects Minnesota Gov. Tim #Walz to be VP running mate, sources say
https://www.cnn.com/webview/politics/live-news/kamala-harris-trump-election-08-06-24?cid=ios_app
WOOT!! #BREAKING I literally just woke up to this news!🥱☕️🥳
Democratic presidential candidate Kamala #Harris selected Minnesota Governor Tim #Walz to be her running mate, choosing a progressive policy champion and a plain speaker from America's heartland to help win over rural, white voters, sources told
Tim #Walz said that when he signed the school lunch bill he was at an elementary school, in a classroom, and he was explaining to the kids what it meant. He said "now all your friends can eat." And they mobbed him because they immediately knew exactly what it meant and why it mattered. That's the backstory of the ecstatic photos with the kids. You don't need much more than that to know why you should #VoteBlue. Bringing back the joy. #HarrisWalz2024

Governor Tim Walz will be a fantastic VP. #HarrisWalz2024 #politics #Walz
I hear he also likes cats. 🐈
While we're all giggling at how well the #WeirdGOP mocking is working and infuriating the #GOP
And while we're exulting in #Harris choosing #TimWalz for her #Veep
Make note that #Walz started the #Weird moniker 🤭
"Meet Kamala Harris’s running mate Tim Walz, the first one to call Republicans ‘weird’
...
These are weird people on the other side,” he said on MSNBC last month. “They want to take books away. They want to be in your exam room.”
