Kamala Harris's border security weakness

When it comes to identifying her policy weaknesses, Kamala Harris has a blind spot the size of the Grand Canyon. Harris's policy blind spot is border security. It's manifested by her silence when Bret Baier asked her about the U.S. Citizenship Act of 2021

. According to the article, "It started when Baier, the host of Special Report on Fox News, asked Harris how many undocumented immigrants she thinks the Biden administration 'has released into the country over the last three and a half years.'" While Baier was finishing his question, Harris interrupted with the intent of shielding herself from Baier's question. She said "Bret, let's just get to the point. The point is that we have a broken immigration system that needs to be repaired." On Baier's first question, VP Harris wanted to immediately jump to her scripted reply about our "broken immigration system" without having to admit she helped Joe Biden break the system. The voters aren't interested in politicians who aren't willing to admit that they've made mistakes. Watching this is painful: If Harris didn't rely mainly on pre-scripted replies on border security, she might get the opportunity to restore a little of her credibility. Because she's rejected coming clean, she's lost what little was left of her credibility. Rita Panahi's commentary pon the interview is enjoyable:

What's enjoyable, if you're in the right frame of mind, is Harris's constant attempts to avoid responsibility and avoid answering the question. She kept returning to her go-to line of "I'm not finished." Baier brushed that line aside like it wasn't there. The fact that her go-to line didn't work like magic must've bothered her. After that opening exchange, VP Harris got angry. She wanted to talk generically about border security. The last thing she wanted to do was talk substantively about the topic. The truth is, I'm not certain that she's capable of that.

Tim Walz's Confederate Flag Fiasco

Image
After Minnesota's Democrats shoved the most controversial progressive legislation down Minnesotans' throats, gossip started popping up about Gov. Walz being interested in running for president . That's died off but Gov. Walz is still making headlines, this time for all the wrong reasons. First, Gov. Walz isn't the brightest bulb in the chandelier. Still, Gov. Walz is fighting against Minnesota's history. This Alpha News article quotes David Hann, the chairman of Minnesota's Republican Party, as saying " The flag the DFL has eliminated was a version of the historic flag our regiments fought under during the Civil War. Minnesota was the first state to offer troops to the Union cause in 1861 , beginning a long tradition of leading the nation in confronting injustice. The DFL quest to erase our history is repugnant and should be rejected." Gov. Walz, though, sees things differently. He's quoted as saying "Minnesota is a diverse state, it continue

What is Kamala Harris afraid of?

Image
Apparently, Kamala Harris suddenly loves debating. Let me rephrase that. Harris loves debating as long as the moderators are partisan hacks. She wants nothing to do with a debate moderated by Fox's Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum. She's afraid of Bret and Martha because a) they'll either fact-check both her and Trump or they won't fact-check either of them and b) Bret and Martha aren't afraid of asking follow-up questions. To a candidate whose answers are scripted and who isn't quick on her feet, the last thing you want is a follow-up question. Kamala fears follow-up questions like vampires hate wooden stakes, sunlight and holy water. Why has Kamala Harris avoided Fox News like the plague? The moderators/propagandists fact-checked Donald Trump aggressively but didn't fact-check Harris . Why didn't David Muir and Linsey Davis fact-check both candidates equally? Is it because Harris doesn't like fair fights? Perhaps she's just afraid of getting exp

Blistering Barack's butt (bigtime)

This past weekend, Barack Obama tried spreading the blame around for Hamas's murderous rampage of Oct. 7. This blistering op-ed hints that Mr. Obama isn't the effective communicator that he once was. Obama initially insisted that "nobody's hands are clean" from the Oct. 7 Massacre. Liel Leibovitz, the Editor at large of Tablet Magazine wrote this op-ed questioning Obama's intellectual honesty. After Obama said that nobody's hands are clean, Mr. Liebovitz wrote wrote "Nah, man. Not all of us are complicit. It's just you. It's you, because you're the one who gave that stentorian speech about red lines in Syria and then sat by and did nothing as those red lines were crossed and Assad continued to slaughter his own people, allowing the Iranians and the Russians to creep in and fill the vacuum left by your devastating lack of leadership." In short, Mr. Liebovitz isn't buying what Mr. Obama is peddling. Let's question Mr. Obama a
