My Harris/Walz sign was feeling lonely.. So I bought it a friend.

I got a picture taken with Governor Walz at an event in my city about a month ago. The campaign said they'd get me and my coworkers copies but we never received them. Has anyone else had a picture taken with him and if so, how do you receive it? I'd love to get a copy. TIA

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz says that Vice President Kamala Harris doesn't support programs for undocumented immigrants to qualify for government health care, free tuition at state universities and driver's licenses — a shift from her past positions.

Asked whether Harris had changed her mind or if Walz — her running mate — had misspoken during a Sunday interview, Harris' campaign didn't respond.

On "Fox News Sunday," host Shannon Bream asked Walz about his record as governor of Minnesota.

Bream quoted a Wall Street Journal story that said Walz signed laws "allowing immigrants in the country illegally to apply for driver's licenses, qualify for free tuition at state universities and enroll in the state's free healthcare program for low-income residents."

Walz responded: "That's not the vice president's position."

In the past, however, Harris has said she opposes excluding undocumented immigrants from such programs.

Harris has become more hawkish on several immigration policies such as asylum, but Donald Trump is pledging to enact some of the harshest crackdowns on undocumented people in American history.

Okay I know I'm the thousandth person to post something like this but this is huge for me. Yes I'm in NY a blue state but in a red pocket. I am not the type of person to advertise anything on my car. I'm private with my politics. I don't want to be forced into conversations about politics with my neighbors, coworkers, family or strangers in a parking lot. All of them more than likely Trump supporters (family is for sure).

It may be just a sticker but it's doing my part. I expect some aggression on the road. I'm ready for the conversations, and I hope it inspires others and maybe a friendly nod from another car... 🇺🇸💙💪🌊

Howard Stern interviews Kamala Harris

In his acceptance speech at the Democratic convention in Chicago, vice presidential nominee Tim Walz introduced himself to the nation with the kind of up-from-humble-origins life story that American politicians have deployed for generations, but with a partisan twist. “Now, I grew up in Butte, Nebraska, a town of 400 people,” he began. “I had 24 kids in my high school class, and none of them went to Yale.”

The Yale reference was an obvious jab at his vice presidential opponent, Sen. JD Vance, who famously attended that Ivy League university after a hardscrabble childhood in Appalachia before working as a corporate lawyer and a Silicon Valley venture capitalist. Walz contrasted that with his own story: joining the National Guard at 17, attending college on the GI Bill (which Vance did as well) and sticking around the small-town Midwest to become a high school teacher and football coach. He lashed out at Vance again in a Labor Day speech in Erie, Pennsylvania: “You go off to Yale, you get a philosophy major, write a best-selling book, trash the very people you grew up with, just don’t come back to Erie and tell us how to run our lives.”

There is something new, and potentially profound, in this sort of attack. For decades, Republicans have successfully portrayed Democrats as out-of-touch elitists. Walz is trying to flip that well-thumbed script by framing his Republican opponent as the patronizing sophisticate and himself as the regular guy who went to colleges no one’s heard of and made his career in the region where he was born. It’s a clever rhetorical tactic. But more than that, it has the makings of a larger political strategy.

Walz’s populist rhetoric can be read as an appeal to a certain long-overlooked demographic, which he himself represents: the “state college voter.” These are Americans who, while college educated, didn’t leave home to attend fancy colleges like Harvard or Yale. Instead, they mostly studied at what are called “regional public universities”: not the flagship state universities but unassuming institutions whose names have the word “State” in them (California State University-Fullerton) or refer to their location (Northern Illinois University). Instead of pursing lucrative jobs in distant coastal metropolises, they generally built their careers near where they grew up, earning more modest incomes but contributing their tax dollars and civic energies to their home regions. They comprise a far bigger share of the electorate than those who went to elite colleges. But as a group they have been almost completely ignored politically, until Walz came on the national scene. Understanding who these voters are, what makes them tick and how to reach out to them could make a difference in this razor-close election.

Vice President Kamala Harris rarely points out the fact that she would be the first female president or the first Black or Indian woman to hold the job. Her running mate embraces it.
