Kamala’s moment: The pantsuit is truly empty
Posted By: Moritz55, 8/23/2024 2:09:32 PM
When Joe Biden picked Kamala Harris as his running mate four years ago, he said he did so because she could assume the office “on day one.” More than 30 days after becoming the presumptive nominee, Harris still does not seem ready to be the Democratic Party’s nominee, let alone president. She is an empty pantsuit, basking in the glow of positive media coverage and unburdened by accountability. Her acceptance speech confirmed that. Harris has now officially accepted the Democratic Party’s nomination. Her nomination was “historic,” as liberals like to say, but not because of her ethnicity. Rather,

Democrat-turned Independent Tulsi Gabbard, the former congresswoman from Hawaii, has endorsed former President Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential race against Vice President Kamala Harris. "We as Americans must stand together to reject this anti-freedom culture of political retaliation and abuse of power. We can't allow our country to be destroyed by politicians who will put their own power ahead of the interests of the American people, our freedom, and our future," Gabbard said at the National Guard conference in Detroit on Monday.
Gabbard's endorsement came on the third anniversary of the suicide bombing
Grieving Gold Star parents tore into the Biden-Harris administration Monday as the nation marked three years since the terrorist attack at Afghanistan's Kabul airport claimed the lives of 13 U.S. service members. Though the scrutiny has largely remained on President Biden in the years since, one Gold Star dad who lost his son in the Abbey Gate attack was determined not to let Vice President Kamala Harris off the hook.
"She owns this as much as he [Biden] does," Mark Schmitz, father of late Marine Lance Cpl. Jared Schmitz, told "Fox & Friends."

Many conservatives have marked the third anniversary of the deadly Abbey Gate bombing that killed 13 Americans during the Biden administration's Afghanistan withdrawal by unearthing poorly aged comments by Vice President Kamala Harris. Monday marks three years since the Aug. 26, 2021 suicide bombing at Hamid Karzai International Airport, which killed 13 American service members and more than 100 Afghans. Islamic State terrorists claimed responsibility for the attack.
The economic case Trump needs to make
4 replies
Last week, Vice President Kamala Harris unveiled her long-awaited economic plan telling supporters, “We were facing one of the worst economic crises in modern history” when she and President Joe Biden took the oath of office. Even liberal economists panned it.
Despite the bad reviews, her new communications director Monday doubled-down, claiming that back then, “the economy was in the ditch.” But was it? Obviously, the Harris strategy is to offset the economic failures of her administration by blaming greedy corporations and the “other guy.” But the other guy has plenty of actual data to refute what amounts to economic disinformation if he chooses to use it.
The Biden-Harris administration has been conditioning funding at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to advance research in Science, Technology, Engineering, Math, and Medicine (STEMM) on "diversity statements" and equity requirements in what academics are calling a "politicized litmus test." From day one, the Biden-Harris administration announced it would overhaul every single agency with the ideals of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI). It ensured there were DEI bureaucracies in place to impose its agendas regularly.

shortage, operating crews will be redistributed: report 13 replies
The Navy will reportedly sideline 17 vessels due to a manpower shortage that makes it difficult to properly crew and operate ships across the fleet. There just aren't enough Merchant Marines to keep all the ships going at once, according to Rear Admiral (Ret.) Mark Montgomery, senior director of the Center on Cyber and Technology Innovation for the Foundation for Defense of Democracy, told Fox News Digital. Merchant Marines operate the many support vessels needed to keep the Navy running.
"The problem, of course, is the ships are at sea, away from home port 12 months of the year," Montgomery said. "So you need two crews … we're desperately short
Wednesday night at the Democratic National Convention, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz accepted his party’s nomination to be their candidate for vice president. While he pitched himself as a moderate Midwesterner, Conservatives should be ecstatic over this choice. Walz’s radical policies mark Kamala as an even more polarizing figure and hurt her chances to win swing states.
Leading up to the announcement, rumors suggested that Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro was a lead contender for Harris’ VP pick. Shapiro has a lot of things going for him. He is young (51), popular, and broadly viewed as a moderate. In addition, adding Shapiro to the ticket would help Harris

High rent costs and living expenses have forced a Connecticut mother of two to move her family from an apartment into a hotel, adding to the list of unconventional living situations America's working class has been compelled to take on to make ends meet. Her story comes as Democrats, including party Chair Jaime Harrison, sell a message of "hope and joy" as VP Kamala Harris takes the reins for the 2024 nomination, "Fox & Friends First" host Todd Piro noted.
"Hope and joy is not paying my bills," Suzanne Hayes told Piro when asked about the DNC's message to voters.
No One Is Buying It

No one is buying what Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and the Democratic Party are selling these days.
Earlier this week, on the opening night of the demonic confab in Chicago that Democrats call their national convention, the outgoing commander-in-chief explicitly denied that he was "angry at all those people" who said he should "step down" following his catastrophic faceplant at the June presidential debate. There is not a single soul who actually believes this. For weeks following the debate, while the corporate media and Democrat elites circled like piranhas, the White House defiantly stood its ground and insisted it wasn't going anywhere.
With multiple reports confirming speculation that Vice President Kamala Harris will back President Biden’s tax hike plan, reactions have started pouring in from prominent figures in political and economic circles. "It would be devastating to the economy," former CKE Restaurants CEO Andy Puzder said Thursday on "The Evening Edit."
"You're going to give up revenue, you're going to lose companies. We're going to lose business," he continued.
"You need to understand, a 25% increase in unrealized capital gains means, theoretically at least, if your house goes up in price, in value, the government can step in and say: give me the money,”
A Message From the Vice Principal
2 replies
Did you hear that, America? Vice President Kamala Harris says, “The consequences of putting Donald Trump back in the White House are extremely serious.” Extremely serious consequences. She sounded more like a vice principal than a vice president.
The only people who ever warn about extremely serious consequences are those who lack the power to impose them. It is a phrase used by high school administrators, HR ladies, and other figures of pseudo-authority who have to put on grave faces in order to stop the person on the other side of the desk from laughing.
Will the real Kamala Harris please stand up? Promises to “chart a new path forward” and “be a president for all Americans” are so boilerplate, they ought to be outlawed.
After three nights of political hosannas in which she was depicted as a cross between Eliot Ness and Mother Teresa, Harris finally took the floor to speak for herself Thursday night.
She spoke well and forcefully and electrified the Chicago convention hall, but color me as confused as ever. Other than not being Donald Trump or Joe Biden, who is she?
What does she really believe and what would she do as president?
If she knows the answers, she’s keeping them a secret.

Do you think the DNC went well? I'm not sure the Democrats did. Reading between the lines of what was said and done between all that "joy," I think the Democrats are panicking, and for good reason. They aren't selling themselves well. If you think this is good, I've got sour news for you. This is the kind of thing that spurs Democrats into action. They live by the mantra "by any means necessary," and if the Democrats are the cornered animal they're hinting they are, then they're about to resort to some really brutal tactics to hold onto power.

Europe is experiencing a crisis evidenced by a “wave of populism” that threatens European universality, Pope Francis warned Saturday.
In a message to participants in the European Alpbach Forum, an Austrian nonprofit foundation advocating a strong and democratic Europe, the pontiff said that Europe is “experiencing a time of crisis,” a time “in which various populist movements are enjoying great popularity.”
In Europe, “as a result of this ‘wave’ of populism, some ideals have vanished and some principles, with regard to behavior towards the weaker members of society, have been sidelined,” he added.
Last week, the parents of 150 students from Stoughton Public Schools, a school district outside of Boston, were informed that a lack of funding and a shortage of buses and drivers have left them without school bus service.
According to the Boston Herald, the news comes at the same time that the state has started paying for the buses of students of more than 200 migrant families.
A letter sent to parents from Superintendent of Schools Joseph Baeta read, “Finalizing the bus routes and the list of students riding the bus is one of the signs the start of the school year is near.”
The Washington Post published an op-ed on Friday calling Vice President Kamala Harris’ husband Doug Emhoff a “progressive sex symbol.”
"Move over, Ryan Gosling. The modern female fantasy is embodied by the man who might soon become our first First Gentleman," Catherine Rampell wrote in the piece.Rampell added that Emhoff is a “hunk” because he is “smitten with his wife” and her career ambitions and is "secure enough with his own masculinity to sometimes prioritize his wife’s ambitions over his own.”
Rampell brushed off Emhoff’s “previous marital drama,” which includes Emhoff conceding that he had an affair during his first marriage.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. officially lost his U.S. Secret Service (USSS) protection on Monday, just days after his withdrawal from the 2024 presidential race.
Kennedy's press secretary confirmed the change in a statement to CBS News. Kennedy had gone through a long process to receive USSS protection in the first place, with his initial requests being denied earlier in the cycle.
It was not until the assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump in July that President Biden ordered that Kennedy receive Secret Service protection as well.

While Robert F. Kennedy Jr's family has been attacking him over his political beliefs for at least the last year, their behavior since he announced his support of the Trump/Vance presidential ticket has been shameful, to say the least. RFK Jr's wife, actress Cheryl Hines, is standing by her husband even though she doesn't agree with him politically and even though she undoubtedly will pay a heavy professional price for her loyalty and love. It's no secret that her "Curb Your Enthusiasm" co-star Larry David has one of the more severe cases of Trump Derangement Syndrome in Hollywood, and her other colleagues are right there with him.

In a move that will surprise no one, Kamala Harris is now pushing for major rule changes at the ABC News debate. That comes after her campaign spent weeks insisting that any deviation from the Biden-negotiated event would represent cowardice on the part of Donald Trump.
According to Politico, Harris wants to do away with the muted mics seen in the CNN debate so that the candidates can have "uncensored" exchanges.
The holdup? Whether or not the candidates’ microphones will be muted when it isn’t their turn to speak.

Hezbollah launched hundreds of rockets and drones against Israel on Sunday in retaliation for the assassination of a senior commander in Beirut last month.
The Lebanon based militant group launched over 320 Katyusha rockets towards Israel and hit 11 military targets, according to the group.
Israeli intelligence had been aware of the impending attack, causing Israeli jets to start an airstrike campaign across southern Lebanon as an act of self-defense before Hezbollah could strike first.
After engineer and data scientist Kim Brooks worked on cleaning the voter rolls in Georgia for a year, she realized she was on a stationary bicycle. She’d clear a name for various reasons, dead, felon, stolen ID, living at a seasonal campground for twenty years, duplicate, moved out of state, 200 years old, etc., and back it would come within a month. At that juncture she realized that a program within the Georgia voter registration database was methodically adding back fake names.

A year into Barack Obama’s presidency, Sarah Palin, a former Alaska governor and John McCain’s 2008 running mate, mockingly asked a Tea Party gathering a question: “How’s that hopey, changey stuff working out?”
The roomful of conservatives howled with laughter because by then, Obama’s dreamy campaign motto of “Hope and Change” had been replaced by hard policy lurches to the far left.
The Palin question is a piece of history 2024 voters should keep in mind as they assess Kamala Harris.
The parallels between then and now are striking.
Like Obama, the Democrats’ current nominee has been maddeningly elusive about what she would do as president.
Just when you thought California under the impeccably coiffed Gavin Newsom and the lunatic asylum that is the Democrats in the California state legislature couldn't get any more ridiculous, someone sets the bar even lower. Now we see that the legislature's Democratic supermajority is likely to pass a bill providing a home-buying subsidy for first-time real estate buyers of up to $150,000.
That sounds like a stupid enough idea all on its own, doesn't it? Not only is this wildly inflationary, not only will it make homes even less affordable for your average Californian,
