Rep. Hunt warns against Harris

Rep. Wesley Hunt (R-TX) has voiced strong opposition to Vice President Kamala Harris, claiming that her election would spread the “lawlessness” seen in California to cities nationwide. During an appearance on Fox News’s Hannity, Hunt linked Harris to the “defund the police” movement that gained traction following George Floyd's death in 2020, arguing that her leadership during the unrest in California and Minnesota exemplifies a radical agenda at the forefront of the 2024 Democratic ticket. Hunt emphasized the importance of recognizing what he describes as radical elements within the Democratic Party, asserting that they aim to divide the nation. He called for unity among Americans to counteract what he perceives as a threat to the country’s foundational values. “This November is so important,” he stated, urging citizens to come together to prevent the radical Left from undermining the nation’s fabric. The congressman also referenced a blog post authored by Harris in 2020, which encouraged donations to a bail fund for demonstrators. He criticized her actions during the riots, suggesting they reflect a broader agenda that seeks to incite division based on race. Hunt highlighted the diversity within law enforcement in Houston, Texas, as a counter-narrative to the divisive rhetoric he attributes to Harris and her allies. As Harris steps in as the Democratic Party’s 2024 nominee following President Biden's campaign suspension, Hunt noted a surge in her polling and fundraising, asserting that this support must change to safeguard the future of the country.
