Vice President Kamala Harris said the public should no longer use the terms "radical Islamic terrorism" and "illegal alien" during a speech she gave at a Los Angeles mosque in July 2016. "We must have the courage to object when they use that term, ‘radical Islamic terrorism,’ which ignores how Muslims have overwhelmingly been the greatest victims of terror," she told the crowd at the Islamic Center of Southern California. "We must also have the courage to reject the term ‘illegal alien.’" Harris’s remarks, which are available on her Facebook page, are yet another example of her history

'Heels-Up Harris' apparently does not like it when people tell the truth about a large part of her voter base.

English is a wonderfully rich language. It can be exceedingly direct. For decades the left has been nudging us away from telling the truth. They make up phrases......." affirmative action " sounds so much better than reverse discrimination, "undocumented migrant" instead of felon. " Transgender " ? There is no such thing. They have already criminalized free speech with " hate speech " as a crime. It is not. I have ever right to offend you as you have to offend me. Don't play their game.

But she is right. Muslims HAVE been the greatest victims of terrorism. What she lies about by way of omission is that the terrorists are always other Muslims. Islam is by its nature an evil creed which preys upon others - even if other Muslims when no one else is available.

Just curious, what planet is Kamala from? Because she clearly knows nothing of the 1,400 years of unbroken, radical Muslim aggression against the West, and Christians in particular, such as: Muslim conquests of N.Africa, Near East, Middle East (600's AD) Muslim conquest of Spain (711-720 AD) Battle of Tours, France (732 AD), Fall of Byzantine Empire (1453 AD), Battle of Vienna, Austria (1683 AD), The Mahdist War against Egypt and Britain (1880s) 9-11 Destruction of the Twin Towers, NYC, and the murder of 3,000+ innocent civilians (2001) Hamas' murder of 1,400 civilian Israelis (Oct 2023) or any one of thousands of other examples of radical muslim aggression over the centuries. Or, how about any one of the thousands of honor killings, rapes and enslavements of bacha-baz boy toys or female POWs and kidnapping victims, forced genital mutilations, and the highest rates of consanguinity in the world?

"Muslims have overwhelmingly been the greatest victims of terror" ? Could we have her data/notes on that? It is true if we include Muslim-on-Muslim terror, yes, such as Hamas attacking Gazans and Syrians attacking each other. Otherwise what it shows is that terrorism aimed at Jews and Christians just does not register with Kamala. She doesn't care and she doesn't notice.

Kamala has no right to ban anything, including our rights under the First and Second Amendments. I will continue to use those perfectly descriptive terms and will mispronounce her name in as many ways as I can. Camel-face will soon be forgotten and become a footnote to the failed presidency of Joe Biden, nothing more.

The left tries to use focus-group tested terminology instead of plain direct language. Their purpose is to misguide/mislead people who make the mistake of listening to them. "Climate Change," "Pro-choice," and "undocumented workers" are classic examples of their chicanery.

We must have the courage to speak directly & honestly, not use word salads to confuse & conflate issues. The term illegal alien is exactly what it says, a person who entered a country without permission & is not a naturalized citizen of the country in which they reside. Maybe not all Muslims are terrorists, but from what I see most terrorists ARE radical Islamists. So they are both perfectly good terms.

An Unprecedented Situation in the Biden

President Wilson’s incapacity for office in 1920 was concealed. In contrast, President Biden’s incapacity for office is being celebrated by the mainstream press and his party, while they simultaneously prop him up to remain in office as the titular commander in chief. It is his vice president and potential successor who is sent forth to read a speech rebuking a close American ally (Israel) and setting the foreign-policy terms for the future. An anonymous coterie in the White House will be making the key decisions for the next five months. There is no precedent for this.

A rocket attack Saturday on a soccer field in the Israeli-controlled Golan Heights killed at least 11 people and wounded several others, including children, Israel said, hours after an Israeli airstrike on south Lebanon killed three members of the militant Hezbollah group. The strike, the deadliest attack on an Israeli target since the fighting between the two foes erupted in October, raised fears of a broader conflagration in the region. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was returning home as quickly as possible after a trip to the United States, his office said. Hezbollah said it struck a military base in the Golan Heights in retaliation

Don't believe your own eyes. That was the message from the far-left following the assassination attempt on Donald Trump as they spread conspiracy theories that he wasn't actually shot. Claims ranged from "it was glass" to the entire shooting being staged. That's expected from the BlueAnon lunatics. It's less expected from the head of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. As RedState reported, FBI Director Christopher Wray decided it'd be a good idea to spread the left-wing conspiracy theory that Trump wasn't hit by a bullet.

Many people are wondering how and why the protests against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu got so out of control on Wednesday. In addition to the vandalism, tearing down of the American flag, and general violence, the police trying to control the crowd were violently attacked. Well, there is a simple answer: there were only 29 Park Police who could defend the sites against the rampaging mob, and the Department of the Interior was unwilling to help those guys out. Dealing with a violent mob consisting of thousands of Antifa and pro-Hamas proto-terrorists, they were outmanned beyond belief.

Consider this the wrap-up to what likely will be the final day of whatever honeymoon Kamala Harris has. The Obamas literally phoned in an endorsement this morning, which means that unless Democrats dig up the corpse of FDR, the potential sugar highs from endorsements have come to an end. Harris may get brief news-cycle boosts from her Veepstakes pick and at the convention, but this introductory week held the most real potential to change the race from the hole Joe Biden dug. And according to CNN polling analyst Harry Enten last night, that potential went largely unrealized. And in fact, Trump had a pretty good week -- again:

Donald Trump’s campaign on Thursday announced that he is not yet ready to agree to the details of a debate with Vice President Kamala Harris, stating: Given the continued political chaos surrounding Crooked Joe Biden and the Democrat Party, general election debate details cannot be finalized until Democrats formally decide on their nominee. There is a strong sense by many in the Democrat Party — namely Barack Hussein Obama — that Kamala Harris is a Marxist fraud who cannot beat President Trump, and they are still holding out hope for somebody “better.” Therefore, it would be inappropriate to schedule things with Harris because Democrats very well could still change their minds.

Harris significantly improved on Biden’s performance in a Wall Street Journal poll from earlier this month when he was down 6 points to Trump. That poll was conducted shortly after Biden’s disastrous debate performance, which sparked the calls for him to leave the race. Biden dropped out last weekend after weeks of turmoil

The statement comes two days after FBI Director Christopher Wray, whom Trump nominated to his post in 2017, told House lawmakers that "there’s some question about whether or not it’s a bullet or shrapnel that, you know, hit his ear."

President Joe Biden is reportedly planning to unveil a dramatic Supreme Court reform next week in an attempt to overhaul the high court. Two people familiar with the matter told Politico that the president is likely to endorse establishing term limits for justices, and bring in a code of ethics. The 81-year-old is expected to push for an amendment that would limit immunity for presidents and other officeholders. His amendment would come directly after the court ruled that presidents are shielded from prosecution for officials acts, in a case brought by Donald Trump. According to the outlet, the specifics remain unclear and could still change sources said.

It's been a week since Joe Biden left the presidential race, and he's barely been seen in public. After a fumbling Oval Office address on Thursday in which he failed to offer any explanation for his sudden departure, the president headed off to Camp David. That would be the same Camp David he hid out at before the debate performance that exposed his worsening mental and physical condition. In other words, his heading back to hunker down there is a pretty big sign of how bad off he is. Biden just suffered the most embarrassing moment of his career, clearly due to worsening health.
