Tim Walz Takes Center Stage at DNC as VP Nominee

Minnesota governor emphasizes unity, middle-class advocacy, and personal values in acceptance speech.

• Walz, dubbed 'Coach Walz,' used his speech to highlight his background as a teacher, coach, and National Guard member.
• He focused on themes of community, freedom, and support for the middle class, contrasting his values with those of the Republican ticket.
• Walz's family, including his son Gus, who has a nonverbal learning disorder, played a prominent role in the evening's events.
• Pro-Palestinian demonstrators staged a sit-in outside the convention, calling for a ceasefire in Gaza and an arms embargo against Israel.
• Walz's speech avoided foreign policy issues, instead focusing on domestic policies and personal anecdotes.
