80/20: Senator: The Founders Were Same as Ayatollahs?
Senator Tim Kaine may seem like a nobody–he is so relatively anonymous that Saturday Night Live spoofed him right before the election as forgettable. But if you can remember all the way back to 2016, you might remember that he came close to becoming the Vice President of the United States.
Yes, that was a long time ago–back when Hillary Clinton was somebody, sort of. But it’s true. The Democrats put this man on the ticket because he was seen as a moderate who could appeal to middle America.
Moderates no longer exist in the ranks of the Democratic Party elites. Being at or near the top of the pile means rejecting basic American values.
This is one of the most embarrassing things I’ve ever seen from a Senator.
Tim Kaine apparently just discovered the idea of inalienable rights and thinks the defining principle of the Declaration of Independence is “extremely troubling”. https://t.co/k1im7y8cF6

Kaine made his remarkable performance in which he rejected the founding principle of the United States, as enunciated in the Declaration of Independence, before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. He was chastising Riley Barnes, a Trump administration appointee to the State Department.

Scott Rasmussen just sent me the results of a poll he recently did on this issue:
🚨78% of voters say people have “natural rights” that cannot legitimately be taken away by any government.
✅Just 15% disagree and say Individual rights and freedoms come from the government@NapolitanNews survey of 1,000 RV conducted by @ScottWRasmussen June 17-18, 2024 https://t.co/Z8x4Tk4KGj— Scott Rasmussen (@ScottWRasmussen) September 4, 2025
We need a complete and total shutdown of Virginia until we can find just what the hell is going on there:
Between Tim Kaine mocking a basic principle of the Declaration of Independence (authored by another former Virginia governor) and Mark Warner delivering mail for a criminal illegal alien (https://t.co/DGrkjmLkQm) it’s clear that sane people in Virginia don’t have a senator. https://t.co/UWigwrNj6s

This afternoon, I visited Kilmar Abrego Garcia and other detainees at the Farmville Detention Center to deliver letters from his family.

I’d like to respond to a disturbing contention from Senator Tim Kaine, during a recent confirmation hearing. pic.twitter.com/hvaYlQQybi
