If she wins the Democratic nomination and is elected president, a Kamala Harris administration would be “Biden-plus,” a Texas congressman says.
A Harris administration would mean a further “move towards socialism and a more liberal government,” says Rep. Nathaniel Moran, R-Texas, adding, “and that’s further away from that conservative value system, that conservative foundation that we want to see restored back in our government.”
One day after kicking off her campaign for president, Harris on Wednesday chose to skip Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s address to a joint session of Congress. Harris’ absence was a “snubbing,” according to Moran. Vice presidents typically preside over such joint sessions.
It’s a “big deal,” the Texas lawmaker said, for “one of our most strategic allies, in a moment of history, where they are under siege by Hezbollah, Hamas, and Iran, besieged at every, every point in their country,” to travel to the U.S. and speak to Congress. Harris’ decision to skip the speech “shows little support on the Democratic side for Israel.”
Instead, Harris spoke at the biennial Zeta Phi Beta sorority national convention in Indianapolis. Her office said the speech was scheduled before Netanyahu’s address to Congress was planned.
Moran joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” to discuss Harris’ record as President Joe Biden’s “border czar,” and what issues are most on the minds of voters ahead of the November presidential election.
