Barack Obama is always seeking more power. He wants to be involved in the radical Left’s schemes as much as possible.
And Obama’s dark and disturbing ties to the Harris campaign have finally been revealed.
In 2006, before his rise to national prominence, Barack Obama was already scoping out potential in up-and-coming political figures. One of the earliest beneficiaries of this foresight was Tim Walz, a school teacher and veteran making his first foray into national politics.
At a time when few high-profile Democrats were willing to take a chance on an unknown, Obama made the journey to Minnesota to support Walz’s congressional campaign. This moment would prove to be a significant milestone in both men’s careers.
Reflecting on that day in 2017, Walz recalled standing on stage with Obama, alongside then-Hennepin County Attorney Amy Klobuchar. After the event, a supporter asked to capture the moment in a photograph. That image, depicting “a future congressman, a future senator, and a future president,” as Walz would later describe it, became a cherished memento, prominently displayed in his home.
While Obama’s support was instrumental in Walz’s successful bid for Congress, the future governor’s campaign trail was not without its bumps. Another prominent Democrat, then-Senator John Kerry, had been scheduled to join Walz but canceled last minute after a controversial remark sparked backlash.
Despite the challenges, Walz won his seat in Congress, a victory that set the stage for his subsequent political ascent, culminating in his election as Governor of Minnesota in 2019.
Obama and Harris: Radical Leftist Partners in Crime
Fast forward to 2024, and Tim Walz’s political journey has reached new heights, with the Minnesota Democrat being tapped as Vice President Kamala Harris’s running mate for the White House.
Harris, like Walz, shares a deep connection with Obama, having been one of the first elected officials to endorse his presidential bid back in 2008.
Her early support, at a time when much of the Democratic establishment was behind Hillary Clinton, marked the beginning of a long-standing political relationship with Obama.
Over the years, Harris has often been compared to Obama, earning the moniker “the female Obama” as she ascended from San Francisco district attorney to U.S. Senator and ultimately Vice President.
Barack Obama’s Long History of Supporting Walz and his Radical Ideas
Although Walz’s relationship with Obama hasn’t always been in the public eye, the former president has been a consistent supporter of Walz throughout his career, offering endorsements during his gubernatorial campaigns and praising his leadership.
In 2018, Obama endorsed Walz’s run for governor, commending his commitment to unifying Minnesota and advocating for affordable healthcare, quality education, and economic opportunity for all. This endorsement was echoed in 2022 when Obama once again voiced his support for Walz, highlighting the governor’s achievements in balancing the state budget, cutting taxes for the middle class, and investing in public safety and education.
The respect and admiration between Walz and Obama have been mutual. Walz backed Obama over Clinton during the 2008 primaries, and in 2019, he declared March 13 “Michelle Obama Day” in Minnesota, in recognition of the former First Lady’s so-called contributions to the nation. This gesture highlighted the deep respect Walz holds for the Obamas.
Harris/Walz Campaign Looks to Obama for Momentum
As Harris now leads the Democratic ticket following President Biden’s departure from the race, she has surrounded herself with key figures from Obama’s political orbit. From David Plouffe, who managed Obama’s 2008 campaign, to Eric Holder, Obama’s former attorney general, Harris’s campaign team reflects a deep connection to the 44th president’s legacy. With Tim Walz as her running mate, the ticket combines political experience with a commitment to the radical ideas that Obama championed during his time in office.
Obama’s endorsement of the Harris-Walz ticket came with enthusiastic support, describing Walz as a leader with integrity, values, and the ability to connect with people on a human level. He highlighted Walz’s achievements as governor, particularly his work on pandemic recovery, establishing paid family leave, and enacting gun safety measures.
However, the former president must have forgotten or simply doesn’t care that Walz oversaw some of the harshest pandemic lockdowns during the COVID-19 outbreak. These lockdowns did more harm than good and were a clear attack on Minnesotan’s freedoms as American citizens.
But next week, Obama, along with other prominent Democrats, will rally in Chicago to support the far-Left Harris-Walz ticket as they prepare to face a formidable opponent in the upcoming election.
