Yesterday, Kamala Harris announced her running mate, Tim Walz. The same Tim Walz that:

  • Tried to increase the gas tax by 70%.
  • Supports sanctuary state status for Minnesota.
  • Opposes the construction of a border wall, calling it "ridiculous."
  • Supports driver's licenses for illegal immigrants.
  • Endorsed taking money away from law enforcement and shifting police funding to community groups.
  • Supports allowing biological men to play in girls' school sports.

To name a few…

Given these radical ideals, you think it'd be easy for so-called moderate Jared Golden to denounce. But instead? According to the Main Morning Star, "The spokesperson for Maine's other Democratic member of Congress, Rep. Jared Golden, said he is out of reach for the next few days canoeing the Allagash with his parents. "The trip was a Christmas gift for his mom and has been on the schedule for months," the spokesperson said."

The lengths Jared Golden will no go through to avoid answering basic questions often asked of elected officials is staggering, but we will say canoeing is a new one!

"Jared Golden dodging literally every political question asked of him in recent months is no profile in courage, it's an obvious show that Jared has gone Washington. His unwillingness to give the voters of Maine an answer on where he stands is disqualifying." - NRCC Spokeswoman Savannah Viar
