As Part of the VP Candidate Vetting Process, Kamala Harris's Staff Asked Josh Shapiro If He Was a Double Agent for Israel

People whose only loyalty is to a resurrected Soviet Union sure seem overly bothered by "dual loyalty" paranoia.

Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro was already irritated by what he describes as "unnecessarily contentious" questions from the team vetting him to be Kamala Harris's running mate when a senior aide made one final inquiry: "Have you ever been an agent of the Israeli government?"
The question came from President Biden's former White House counsel Dana Remus, who was a key member of Harris's vice-presidential search team.
Shapiro, one of the most well-known Jewish elected officials in the country--and one of at least three Jewish politicians considering a run for the 2028 Democratic presidential nomination--says he took umbrage at the question. "Had I been a double agent for Israel? Was she kidding? I told her how offensive the question was," Shapiro writes in his forthcoming book, Where We Keep the Light, a copy of which The Atlantic obtained ahead of its release on January 27.
The exchange became even more tense, he writes, when Remus asked whether Shapiro had ever spoken with an undercover Israeli agent. The questions left the governor feeling uneasy about the prospect of being Harris's No. 2, a role that ultimately went to Minnesota Governor Tim Walz. After Harris and Walz lost to Donald Trump, many Democrats were critical of her decision to bypass Shapiro, the popular governor of the nation's largest swing state. In his book, Shapiro says that the decision may not have been fully hers; he says he had "a knot in my stomach" throughout a vetting process that was more combative than he had expected. Shapiro wrote that he decided to take his name out of the running after a one-on-one meeting with Harris that featured more clashes, including about Israel.

The Biden/Harris "antisemitism envoy" objected to the question.

Should we also ask Muslims if they are loyal to "the Caliphate"? Actually, question retracted. We certainly should.

The great thing about America is that an actual paid foreign operative (for Qatar) can become a citizen and five minutes later lecture us on who counts as a loyal American https://t.co/0s65wQLq5S

52 Odds that Shapiro invented or exaggerated this to drum up interest in his book? I'd say north of 50%.

Sure, he wasn't chosen (mostly) because he was Jewish in a party that's crawling with vocal anti-semites. But I doubt he was asked whether he was an agent of Israel.

63 Funny story from Portland - half the Portland city council is affiliated, officially or unofficially, with the Democratic Socialists of America, which hates Israel.

They are thinking of passing a city ordinance forbidding anyone in Portland from selling arms to Israel, and kicked the only representative of a Jewish publication off of an online press conference denouncing Israel.

It turns out that the big star for the Portland Trailblazers at the moment is Israeli and has served in the IDF, and these people haven't made a peep about it.

Apparently they aren't feeling politically powerful enough yet to start denouncing Portland's basketball team.

71 The normalization of Jew-Hate/Israel-Hate is probably a combination of a few things. One of course is the importation of Jew-haters for purposes of voting, and a second is the emergence of Israel as a bulwark against the post-modern lunacy that has gripped the left. Israelis are patriotic, fight for their country, and are relatively religious...all things that the left despises!

I'm rewatching the Victoria series with the luminous Jenna Coleman as the queen. The Brits who were anti German kept accusing Prince Albert of being a secret Papist, apparently. Someone joked that he as going to cross himself when he entered a Church of England cathedral.

I found it ironic, with the rumors that King Charles is now a secret Muslim. Allegedly.

the preacher is an ICE field office manager. This is not citizens attacking citizens, this is citizens attacking feds/gestapo at a place he thinks he's safe, just like he does to vulnerable people every day.

It amuses me how you think your nation is such a glass house a reporter filming something you don't like is communism and in the batshit scenario it was you'd consider that a threat.

227 The question of dual loyalties is contentious and sensitive, but not totally unfounded.

During WWII, a German-American was more likely to spy for Germany than any other nation.

Same with the Japanese-Americans.

I am well aware that the Japanese-American regiment earned many, many medals for valor in the European campaign. And many German-Americans served loyally in our armed forces.

None-the-less, dual loyalty is a real concern.

Chinese-Americans are more likely to spy for China against us than some other random country.

Now...the dual loyalty charge against Jewish-Americans can and has been used unfairly against them. But it is not something that has absolutely no basis in factual probabilities.

Larry N. Freedman (Hero) vs Jonathan Pollard (not a hero) for a case in point.

If they're a good muslim, they'll say "No" because Islam commands them to lie to advance Islam.

If they're a bad muslim, they'll also say "No" because they don't really believe all that crap.

So it's sadly a useless question, because no one will ever answer yes as a candidate. (Now, random muslim on the street will be far more truthful, though, as they want to act like conquerors already.)

Have a Shapiro-lookalike. Have an HR-looking person at the desk. Have them exchange greetings. Pleasantly, even. Congratulate Shapiro on being on the short list for the VP slot. Then HR-person notes that the team just needs answers to a few questions to help in their decision making.

"Number one: Are you, or have you ever been, a Jew?".

And just roll on from there.

289 Hey, what do you think would happen if over 100 Million Americans filed under the False Claims Act (Fraud) and named the various Governors of those states enabling fraud as defendants. Getting around the sovereign immunity aspects of government depends on proving direct harm from a government employee's wrongful act or omission, not just general policy failures, and involves strict procedural steps and time limits.

Arguably, were we able to show Walz, Frey, Newsom, Pritzker etc. purposefully overlooking fraud, or even contributing to it, the Agency requirements would have been met. That allows for the filing of a civil suit in which showing damages is pretty damn easy in that we all presumably pay taxes that end up in the Medicare/ Medicaid/ HHS programs.

There is obvious mismanagement and time will likely show participation.

I say we bankrupt these guys for the rest of their miserable lives. Plus, it would be entertaining.

A crucial piece of Reconstruction-era legislation ... making it a federal crime to interfere with civil rights, allowing presidential use of the military, and holding state officials accountable for civil rights violations, all under the umbrella of enforcing the 14th Amendment.

Key Provisions & Significance:
Federal Enforcement: It made interfering with voting rights and other civil liberties a federal offense, targeting Klan violence like intimidation, conspiracy, and masked terrorism.

Presidential Power: Authorized the President (Ulysses S. Grant) to use federal troops to enforce the law and suspend habeas corpus if necessary.

Holding Officials Accountable: Made state officials liable in federal court

Understand that Portland itself is 600k out of 2.4M. Probably less than 20% of the (expensive!) seats at the blazers games are occupied by city residents. The area is definitely leftist, but the radical population is concentrated in the city proper.
Ignoring that elephant is tactical. The city needs the income generated by the team, the team doesn't need the city. I'm sure that Gresham, Hillsbore, Beaverton, or Tigard would welcome them. Hell, they could move across the river to Vancouver (WA).

The FBI is so corrupt, incompetent and traitorous that they practically hand-off select-fire "assault weapons" to gang bangers and self-doxx themeselves and the entire operation.

And the BATFE, the red headed step child of law enforcement, is the one who makes the collar.
