We’re covering Kamala Harris’s choice for vice president, and a new political leader for Hamas.

[Kamala Harris and Tim Walz hold hands on a stage in front of a crowd,] Vice President Kamala Harris with Tim Walz in Philadelphia on Tuesday. Hiroko Masuike/The New York Times Harris and Walz made their debut in Philadelphia Kamala Harris appeared for the first time alongside her newly announced running mate, Gov.

And that’s the kind of vice president he will be.” Walz responded, beaming, “Thank you for bringing back the joy.” Democrats proved quick to embrace their new ticket on Tuesday, and the Harris campaign said it had raised more than $20 million in the hours since Walz’s selection became official. Background: Born in Nebraska, Walz served for 24 years in the National Guard, taught social studies and coached a high school football team. He got his start in politics in 2006 by winning a congressional race in a rural, largely conservative district of Minnesota.

Politics: After his election as governor of Minnesota, Walz has worked to enact an ambitious agenda of liberal policies: free college tuition for low-income students, free meals for schoolchildren, legal recreational marijuana and protections for transgender people. He has also championed climate issues but has faced criticism for his response to the George Floyd protests.

Sinwar will replace Ismail Haniyeh, who was killed in an explosion last week in Tehran. Hamas and Iran blamed Israel for the assassination, although Israel has not publicly taken responsibility. Sinwar has served as the leader of Hamas in Gaza since 2017 and is widely believed to be hiding out in tunnels under the enclave. Born in the Gaza Strip, he spent two decades in Israeli prisons before his release in a prisoner exchange with Israel in 2011. He is viewed by Israeli officials as a sophisticated strategist with a keen understanding of their society.
