Long lines are forming in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, ahead of Kamala Harris and Tim Walz’s rally, with attendees eagerly awaiting their appearance. Alongside Harris and Walz, Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers, Senator Tammy Baldwin, and musician Bon Iver are also expected to attend the event. In a rival rally, JD Vance is set to hold an event in the same area, hoping to attract a good turnout. Videos posted on social media show a thinner crowd at Vance’s earlier campaign stop in Michigan.
Vance has criticized Harris’s selection of Tim Walz as her running mate, accusing her of aligning with radical policies like defunding the police and having open borders. He also accused her of not securing the border effectively, leading to issues like fentanyl smuggling and high inflation. Vance has not been shy about attacking Harris, commenting on her failure to do interviews since being selected as the Democratic vice presidential candidate.
Amidst the political events in Wisconsin, there is news of turmoil in the far-right playbook Project 2025, with the release of a potentially fiery new book being postponed until after the presidential election. The book, with JD Vance writing the foreword, includes controversial proposals such as firing federal government workers and disassembling longstanding agencies. Vance’s appearance at his event in Eau Claire was accompanied by the playing of the Village People’s ‘YMCA’, a favorite of former President Donald Trump.
