CHICAGO – In a prime-time speech at the Democratic National Convention, former GOP Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) announced his support of Kamala Harris’s campaign, encouraging other Republicans to “stand up to one weak man.”

“Some have questioned why I’ve taken the stand I have. The answer is simple: We must put country first. And tonight, as a Republican speaking before you, I’m putting our country first,” Kinzinger said to applause.
