Democratic Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro has claimed in his forthcoming memoir that 2024 Democratic nominee Kamala Harris’ campaign asked him if he had ever worked as a “double agent for Israel” while vetting him as a potential running mate.
Shapiro, who is Jewish, wrote in “Where We Keep the Light” that he told his interrogator, former Biden White House counsel Dana Remus, that he found the question offensive and was told, “Well, we have to ask.”
According to the New York Times, which obtained an advance copy of Shapiro’s book, Remus then asked if the governor had ever “communicated with an undercover agent of Israel.”
“If they were undercover, I responded, how the hell would I know?” wrote Shapiro, who is thought by some observers to be a contender for the 2028 Democratic nomination.
Shapiro’s account of the questions posed by Remus refer to antisemitic tropes that Jewish politicians, and Jews in general, are more loyal to Israel than the US.
While the Keystone State governor declined to directly criticize Remus, who he said was “just doing her job,” Shapiro wrote that the line of questioning “said a lot about some of the people around the VP.”
“I wondered,” he admitted in the book, “whether these questions were being posed to just me — the only Jewish guy in the running — or if everyone who had not held a federal office was being grilled about Israel in the same way.”

Remus then asked if the governor had ever “communicated with an undercover agent of Israel.”
“If they were undercover, I responded, how the hell would I know?” wrote Shapiro.
Sophistry... clearly that means someone -known to you- to be undercover. It would be irrational to ask that he have some supernatural ability to ferret out who among those he speaks to are “undercover”.
Walz was a money generator. There was a giant infusion of cash when he was announced. Now with the Somali and other massive fraud in Minnesota, we know where that cash came from.
Ive worked with people with various mental health problems that used past trauma as an excuse for violently lashing out and doing things to people around them.
One of the worst things you can do is to feed into that behavior because it only encourages more of it.
No group other than AWFULs is buying the special victim mentality any more from anyone.
Not this Jewish Person: Foe me Iit’s Messianic Jews, Jewish people, Jews everywhere.
It’s a valid question. They already have double agents and don’t need to overstack the deck.
There’s plenty of drugs, alcohol and porn connected with crazy behavior from Gentiles and Jews alike including the paranoia and fear that drives the need to control things so something bad doesn’t happen again.
"SECRET! A-gent Jew! ... SECRET! A-gent Jew!"

Good find.
It is not yet known whether Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro is a dual citizen
of Israel, and could be an indication he is taking measures to hide the facts of his citizenship.
We do know that Shapiro was a volunteer in the Israeli Defense Forces. Shapiro’s serving in a foreign military is very troubling. Shapiro also worked as a public affairs officer in the Israeli Embassy. Note well that working for the Israeli government requires the individual to be an Israei citizen.
A vetting for Vice President involved questions from the Democrat Harris team about
his ties to Israel and whether Shapiro is now, or had ever been, a double agent for Israel.
Shapiro’s family has strong Jewish roots.
During vetting for the possible Democrat Vice President nod, Shapiro himself recounted questions from Kamala Harris’s team about his relationship with Israel, asking if he was ever an agent for the Israeli government.
Shapiro has reinforced his Jewish Identity & his relationship to Israel. As a prominent Jewish politician, Shapiro has strong connections and undeniable support for Israel, particularly for sending Israel billions of US tax dollars.
It is not yet known if the Israeli government enlisted Shapiro’s support to facilitate sending mega-billions of US tax dollars to the aid-dependent Israeli government.
Shapiro’s Jewish faith, his strong pro-Israel stance and his condoning sending mega-billions of tax dollars to Israel.........leads to probing questions about his connection to Israel and whether he holds dual citizenship.
However, the Harris team rejecting Shapiro as the VP nominee could be a troubling indication of Shapiro’s Israeli connections.
An individual needs to be an Israeli citizen to work in the Israeli government,
especially for roles requiring security clearance or military service in the IDF.
We do know that Pennsylvania Democrat Shapiro (a) served in the Israeli Defense
Forces. Democrat Shapiro’s serving in a foreign military is very troubling.
(b) Shapiro also worked as a public affairs officer in the Israeli Embassy.
Note well that working for the Israeli govt requires the individual to be an Israeli citizen.
Key Requirements & Considerations——Citizenship is Key: Most sensitive government roles, especially those in defense or requiring deep integration, necessitate Israeli citizenship, often linked to mandatory IDF military service.
IDF Military Service is Mandatory for citizens; exemptions are few.
Military/government integration is complex and non-existent for non-citizens.
In summation, Israeli citizenship is the standard requirement for government employment in Israel.
Meant to say: Messianic Jews and America equally , then Jews everywhere after.
GOD brought Israel back. This doesn’t mean we have the do everything they say, but GOD brought it back into existence , just like he brought the United States into existence.
