In Michigan, Vice President Kamala Harris declared that Americans should be free to make personal decisions — without having “their government telling them what to do.”
In Arizona, Gov.
Tim Walz of Minnesota admonished Republicans: “I don’t need you telling me what books to read. I don’t need you telling me about what religion we worship. And I sure the heck don’t need you to tell me about my family.”
And in Philadelphia, as the Democratic presidential ticket made its debut, Mr. Walz seemed to make common cause with the “old white guys” he saw in the audience, noting, “Some of us are old enough to remember when it was Republicans who were talking about freedom.”
“There’s a golden rule,” he added. “Mind your own damn business!”
Democrats are making an aggressive new effort to challenge Republican claims to the language and symbolism of liberty.
Using traditionally right-leaning words and phrasing, they are portraying themselves as the true champions of universal American values, and their conservative rivals as proponents of deeply intrusive policies that threaten fundamental freedoms.
.Here are the top political news stories for today.
Over the last 6 months, we've witnessed one of the greatest shifts towards liberty within a major party that Americans have seen in over a decade.
While the GOP leans into authoritarianism, the DNC is moving away from it.
That's good.
Literally, nothing changed in the democrat party. The DNC are RELENTLESS in challenging 3rd parties in the courts, and passed new rules to prevent anyone from running against Biden.
There was no shift. Nothing changed. They just switched the figurehead of the party.
Limiting speech, arresting and jailing political dissidents, lockdowns, attacks on the Judicial branch. Oh wait, that’s what the leftists are doing
