Nearly a week after verbal stumbles in the only vice presidential debate, Democrat Tim Walz used his debut campaign appearance on a Sunday news show to try to fend off criticism of his stand on abortion rights and 香蕉视频直播渙wn up香蕉视频直播� to past misstatements.

The interview on Fox News Sunday reflected a broader media blitz by presidential nominee Kamala Harris and her running mate as the Democrats seek to garner public attention in the final 30 days of the campaign against Republicans Donald Trump and JD Vance.

Harris has taped an interview with CBS香蕉视频直播� 60 Minutes that will air Monday night. She is booked Tuesday on Howard Stern香蕉视频直播檚 satellite radio show, ABC香蕉视频直播檚 The View and The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on CBS. Her interview on the podcast Call Her Daddy is scheduled to be released later Sunday. Walz will be on Jimmy Kimmel香蕉视频直播檚 ABC show on Monday.

Walz香蕉视频直播檚 Fox appearance also touched on the turmoil in the Middle East, with anchor Shannon Bream pressing the Minnesota governor on whether Israel has a right to preemptively attack Iran香蕉视频直播檚 nuclear and oil facilities in response to Tehran香蕉视频直播檚 firing of missiles against Israel. It was a question that Walz did not fully answer during his debate this past week with Vance, an Ohio senator.

Walz said Sunday that 香蕉视频直播渟pecific operations will be dealt with at the time香蕉视频直播� and he spoke of 香蕉视频直播渃onsequences for what they do.香蕉视频直播�

He said Israel has a right to defend itself and that Harris worked with Israel this past week to repel the Iranian attack. President Joe Biden said last week he would not support an Israeli strike on sites related to Tehran香蕉视频直播檚 nuclear program.

Walz defended a law that he signed as governor to ensure abortion protections, saying it 香蕉视频直播減uts the decision with the woman and her health care providers.香蕉视频直播�

Trump has said he would not sign a national abortion ban into law, and during the interview Sunday, Walz was asked whether he was calling that 香蕉视频直播渁 flat-out lie.香蕉视频直播�

香蕉视频直播淵es 香蕉视频直播� of course,香蕉视频直播� Walz said.

On the economy, Walz said Harris香蕉视频直播� proposals would make life more affordable for the middle class by helping with the construction of 3 million new homes and expanding tax credits for parents. He said tariffs floated by Trump could increase costs by an estimated $4,000 a year on a typical family.

Walz also faced questions in the interview about misstatements pertaining to his military service, drunken driving arrest, infertility treatment for his family and claims to have been in Hong Kong before the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre in China.

香蕉视频直播淚 will own up when I misspeak,香蕉视频直播� Walz said. 香蕉视频直播淚 will own up when I make a mistake.香蕉视频直播�

He said he believes voters are more concerned by the fact that Vance could not acknowledge during their debate that Trump lost the 2020 election to Biden and that there could be restrictions on the infertility treatment of intrauterine insemination that his wife, Gwen, received.

香蕉视频直播淚 think they香蕉视频直播檙e probably far more concerned with that than my wife and I used IUI to have our child and that Donald Trump would restrict that,香蕉视频直播� Walz said. 香蕉视频直播淪o I think folks know who I am.香蕉视频直播�

Bream noted that Trump has come out in support of fertility treatments, even as he has said that abortion questions should be decided by states.
