In an interview with The Intercept, Omar said that Walz has "failed to lead" during the pandemic and that he has "sided with the police against the people."
Omar's criticism of Walz is a sign of the growing divide within the Democratic Party between progressives and moderates. Progressives have been critical of Walz for not being progressive enough, while moderates have praised him for his leadership during the pandemic.
Progressive women's groups have been silent on the recent revelation that Doug Emhoff, the husband of Vice President Kamala Harris, had an affair while he was married to his first wife.
The revelation has sparked outrage among some feminists, who argue that Emhoff's behavior is hypocritical given his support for women's rights.
However, progressive women's groups have remained silent on the issue. It is unclear why the groups have not spoken out, but it is possible that they are trying to avoid alienating Harris, who is a popular figure among progressives.
