Arizona senate candidate says Mark Kelly would give Harris 'jolt' as VP
Rep Ruben Gallego says Sen Mark Kelly would energize the Democratic ticket as vice president
 By Chris Pandolfo Fox News
Published July 25, 2024 2:00pm EDT

Arizona Democratic Rep. Ruben Gallego praised Sen. Mark Kelly, D-Ariz., as a "great" prospective choice to run with Vice President Kamala Harris on the party's presidential ticket.

In an interview on CNN Wednesday, Gallego said Kelly would give Harris a "jolt" ahead of the November election, when Democrats will face off again against former President Trump.

"Adding Kelly to the ticket will add that extra jolt to the campaign," Gallego told CNN's Manu Raju.

"And I think it’d be great for Democrats across the country… again, as a border state senator, [Kelly] understands border issues; as an astronaut, married to Gabby Giffords… It’s a good combination right there," he said.

Anyone who would vote for Kamala, with or without Mark Kelly, has a screw (or several) loose!

There are plenty of other things in this world that would give Kamala Harris a “jolt”

Sorry, folks. There are a lot of these headlines that are low hanging fruit

Buried at the bottom of a loooong puff piece in the NYT about the supposedly perfect resume of Mark Kelly as potential Kamala VP pick is this rather significant problem:

How did Mark Kelly get to be so wealthy?

“Kelly has a lot of metaphorical fingers in metaphorical pies, but one of the most worrying is his stake in a company that’s received significant investment from Tencent, a tech firm that has ties to the CCP.”

Western Journal:
Quote
... Eight years later in 2019, Kelly had to file his first financial disclosures for his run against GOP Arizona Sen. Martha McSally. According to The Arizona Republic, his net worth was between $10 million and $27 million. (It’s now between $9 million and $27 million, the paper said, citing a financial disclosure report filed in August.)

This would, as The Republic reported, be “an amount that would make him among the wealthiest people in Congress at the time.”  ...

How did he get to be so wealthy? Kelly has a lot of metaphorical fingers in metaphorical pies, but one of the most worrying is his stake in a company that’s received significant investment from Tencent, a tech firm that has ties to the Chinese Communist Party. ...

Kelly’s ties to Fertitta and to Tencent are seen as two of the reasons why he wouldn’t offer much support for the Hong Kong protesters other than telling a newsletter called the Yellow Sheet Report that he “supports those protesting for democracy in Hong Kong.”

The McSally campaign, meanwhile, has seized upon Kelly’s ties to China. She “and her allies have cast Kelly as a partisan mercenary willing to make money from sometimes-unsavory sources,” The Republic reported. ...
