Civil war breaks out in the Democrat Party after one Leftist was caught in a brutal lie

Leftists are extremely fractured right now. It’s hard to see how they recover.

And civil war has broken out in the Democrat Party after one Leftist was caught in a brutal lie.

Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro has strongly pushed back against claims made about him in Kamala Harris’s new memoir, 107 Days. The book, which covers her short-lived presidential campaign, includes passages that Shapiro says are simply untrue.

Shapiro was one of the finalists Harris considered for vice president last year. In the book, she describes him as overly eager for the trappings of the office and difficult to work with during the vetting process.

Among other things, she writes that he was focused heavily on the vice presidential residence and how it would look with him living there.

When Tim Alberta of The Atlantic read those sections aloud to Shapiro during a recent interview, the governor reacted with clear anger. “That’s complete and utter bulls—t,” he said. “I can tell you that her accounts are just blatant lies.”

Harris also wrote that Shapiro wanted to be involved in every major decision and often had to be reminded that the vice president does not share equal authority with the president. Shapiro dismissed the entire portrayal as fiction.

During the interview, Shapiro suggested the former vice president is using the book to shift responsibility for her election loss. “I mean, she’s trying to sell books and cover her a**,” he said at one point, before adding, “I shouldn’t say ‘cover her a**.’ I think that’s not appropriate.”

The memoir revisits the chaotic weeks after President Biden’s poor debate performance and the hurried search for a running mate that followed. Harris reveals that Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg was her first choice, but she ultimately decided against him since he is g*y.

“We were already asking a lot of America: to accept a woman, a Black woman, a Black woman married to a Jewish man,” Harris wrote. “Part of me wanted to say, ‘Screw it, let’s just do it.’ But knowing what was at stake, it was too big of a risk.”

In the end, she selected Minnesota Governor Tim Walz instead.

Shapiro’s sharp response has drawn attention at a time when many Democrats are already looking ahead to the next presidential cycle.

The Pennsylvania governor, who won re-election in 2022 by a wide margin, is frequently mentioned as a possible contender in 2028.

The public dispute between two prominent figures in the same party highlights the lingering frustration inside Democratic circles after the 2024 defeat.

Harris’s book appears intended to explain what went wrong during her 107-day campaign, but passages like these risk deepening divisions rather than healing them.

For his part, Shapiro has made it clear he will not let the claims stand unanswered.

The exchange serves as a reminder that the wounds from last year’s election are still fresh, even among those who were once allies.

As Democrats search for a path forward, episodes like this one show how difficult it will be to unite behind a single message or leader.

Whatever happens in the years ahead, Josh Shapiro has ensured that Kamala Harris’s version of events will not be the last word on what took place during that vice-presidential search.
