Anti-Israel activists started a “No Genocide Josh” movement to pressure Kamala Harris not to choose Josh Shapiro as a running mate
With Tuesday’s announcement that the presumptive Democratic nominee, Kamala Harris, selected Minnesota Governor Tim Walz rather than Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, some have characterized the snubbing of Shapiro as motivated by antisemitism or at least caving to antisemites.
Josh Shapiro is governor of key swing state Pennsylvania and was considered by many to be the favorite in the shortlist of running mates for Kamala Harris.
Shapiro is vocal in his support for Israel, particularly in the war against Hamas following the October 7th invasion, and was highly critical of the mishandling of antisemitism on college campuses.
