Khizr Khan, the father of a slain Muslim Army captain who gained national attention by pointedly criticizing former President Donald Trump during the Democratic National Convention in 2016, announced in an exclusive interview with NBC News that he is endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign and plans to act as a campaign surrogate for her.
In 2016, Khan denounced Trump’s treatment of Muslims and other minorities while holding a pocket-sized U.S. Constitution and challenging Trump to read the document. In his interview with NBC News on Saturday, Khan said Trump has “gotten worse” and that he fears the former president will become a dictator and end democracy as Americans know it.

Trump and Walz even teamed up to give police more funding to forcibly remove oil pipeline protesters
more war funding, more police funding, more funding to restrict our borders, no plan to improve workers’ rights, no plans for universal healthcare, no raising the minimum wage, no plans to care for our planet better

wording is different but the meanings are clear and very much alike
^ check this guy’s history and decide whether he’s got an axe to grind, and maybe a Lada to earn.
trying to depress turnout while claiming voter suppression is not a big deal. chef’s kiss.
Democrats are as allergic to factual information as the Republicans are
anything that shatters the Democrat fantasy must be some Russian paid troll thing tied to the Republicans
Republicans have a similar bitch with different wording but again meaning is the same
both parties support elections based on showmanship, hot air, and fluff without any progressive goals that would benefit the people
anything that shatters the Democrat fantasy must be some Russian paid troll thing tied to the Republicans
Did you miss the announcement like two days ago that a shit ton of right wing douchebags were “unwittingly” on Russia’s payroll?
As unwitting as one can be. When they Google time in Moscow trying to figure out why someone supposedly in Paris isn’t responding.
Though to be fair it isn’t just the right wing. There are those on the left as well. And I’m sure ole verdant checks some of them daily to get their information. I think the only difference is that no one is going to pay any of the ones on the left tens of thousand to hundreds of thousands per podcast episode to push out misinformation. Probably just a few nickel-plated commemorative Stalin pins.
This is a post about Khizr Khan. Go shit up the internet with copypasta trash somewhere else.
edit: just wanna remind everyone that blocking users is super easy.
and in particular why Khizr Khan is endorsing Harris Walz
if you read the article his gripes about the Republicans are things the Democrats have come out strong on too like securing the border to the extreme and arming Israel
Khan also said he wasn’t an expert on the Afghanistan war and didn’t want to “second guess” the actions of the Biden-Harris administration.
“Second-guessing the decisions of our leadership, our military leadership, is not a good idea,” Khan said. “It is not in national interest. Guess who is going to exploit this difference and Republicans’ exploitation of this issue? Our adversaries — and it does not benefit our country. It does not benefit our national security.”
Khan is just talking out his ass
both parties are warmongers who support fascist ideas like closed border policies

What about abortion? Tax cuts for the super rich? Environmental protection? Consumer protection from telecoms and credit card providers? Access to food and nutrition for children and the disabled? The broken financials of our universities and their students? Paid leave to start a family? Basic shit like being able to unsubscribe from things online if you signed up online?
Those are just a subset of real, actual laws that are improving lives in democrat-run states.
