To the editor:

It is unfortunate that most of the media is in bed with the Harris/Walz (HW), Democratic candidates for president and vice president. A more careful vetting of HW, shows that they are radical left-wing liberal candidates, and not moderate. Here are a few examples.

The HW candidates are part of the Biden administration. They are directly responsible for the open borders and the resulting crimes of murder, rape, abductions, and the like committed by many of the illegal aliens. Why has Harris not done something about it the past 3 ½ years? Why don’t Harris and Biden just admit that they are planning to make the millions of illegal immigrants into voting members in order for the Democrats to stay in power? Campaign aides are reporting on numerous flip flops by Harris from the past. Harris has had no press interviews since her vote-less candidacy.

Think about the disasters in Minnesota in 2020. Walz, failed as a man and did nothing to stop the riots, looting, and burning of the third precinct and hundreds of other buildings, in what was called “mostly peaceful rioting.” Walz let Minneapolis burn and at the same time asked people to snitch on their neighbors who walked around outside. Harris helped bail out criminals. Walz’s honesty is in question when he embellished his service in the National Guard by falsely saying he carried a gun in combat in Afghanistan, and he did not. He claimed a command sergeant major title rank, but didn’t complete the requirements for it. He is guilty of stolen valor, an affront to those who served faithfully.

The HW candidates are condoning the killing of unborn children right up to birth (partial birth abortion). Did HW ever thank their own parents for not killing them while in the womb?

After serving as a teacher, Walz showed little to no concern for learning during the COVID years by mandating masks to children and mandating the 6-foot distance. He encourages teacher’s unions to indoctrinate students with the LGBTQ issues, but does not allow parents and Christians to exercise their religious freedoms, calling them bigots. Tampons in boys’ bathrooms? Weird. Boys on girls’ sports teams? Ridiculous. These are just a few radical ideas of HW. HW cannot be trusted. Are we better off now than four years ago? No.

Did you notice how many speakers acknowledged God at the Republican Convention? Will God be even mentioned at the Democratic Convention? Our democracy hangs in the balance. Vote Republican.
