Since http://KamalaHarris.com still has no policies posted on it, the Trump campaign has created http://Kamala2024Policies.com to lay out her platform for voters.

Trump campaign trolls Harris, releases policy website for her after weeks of silence https://trib.al/MeSjFWz
12:01 PM · Aug 21, 2024 //
"Kamala Harris has yet to tell voters what her policies are, so we thought we’d help them out. Kamala Harris wants to open the borders, raise taxes, and free criminals," a Trump campaign national press secretary told Fox News Digital about the website.
The site, kamala2024policies.com, launched Wednesday morning on the third day of the Democratic National Convention (DNC) and takes viewers to a website declaring, "Kamala Harris' dangerous policies are nothing to laugh about."
"The gap that I see in all these speeches -- as good as they were -- [Kamala Harris] is in the White House right now. Democrats have controlled the White House for 12 of the last 16 years, and for all of the talk about division and the problems in the country, and people are hurting, Democrats have mostly controlled this country.
Trump had it for four, the Obama's and Biden had it for the rest of the time, and somehow, it’s still all Trump’s fault, and somehow, she hasn’t been at the center of it. To me, that is the glaring hole in this campaign that hasn’t yet been solved at the convention. How do you explain all of the problems that will be solved by the person who is currently in there for the last three and a half years, and who is supposed to be already working on solving it?"
"Friendly" is an understatement. From Walz' teaching days in Nebraska until now, the Minnesota governor has all the leanings of a Manchurian Candidate. In this 2016 interview with Agri-Pulse, Walz calmly admits that he traveled to China over 30 times. Listen to how he speaks about America forging a non-adversarial relationship with the People's Republic. This interview was given while he was a sitting member of Congress and part of the House Agriculture Committee. //
Walz first traveled to China on a year-long teaching fellowship in 1989, months after the Chinese Communist Party slaughtered thousands of pro-democracy activists and student protesters in Tiananmen Square.
Despite the country's turmoil, Walz—a 25-year-old National Guardsman at the time—wrote in a letter to one of his former college professors that he was "being treated like a king" in China.
In China, Walz said he received a salary that was double the pay of Chinese teachers, was given a decorated apartment with a color TV, and had the only air-conditioned residence on campus. He said he was also thrown parties on his birthday and Christmas. //
This makes Walz' Stolen Valor even worse. Walz was literally being paid by a foreign country while supposedly serving and being paid by the United States military. This is highly questionable, and if he failed to be debriefed, could portend something even worse.
Walz' choice of the date of his marriage to his wife Gwen is also cringe-inducing.
Walz and his wife Gwen held their wedding on the fifth anniversary of the Tiananmen Square massacre—with Gwen Walz saying her husband "wanted to have a date he'll always remember." The Walzes spent their honeymoon in China. They also founded a travel company, Educational Travel Adventures Inc., which specialized in trips to China. //
Now, a former student who says he joined Walz on a 1995 trip to China is speaking to Alpha News about the experience. That student, Shad, asked that we not use his last name.
For several weeks, Walz and his group of students explored China together in the summer of 1995, Shad said. They saw Tiananmen Square, walked along the Great Wall of China, and traversed the country. However, the former student says he was struck by Walz’s adoration for China and its communist ideology.
The 2024 Democratic Party platform has been released, and it's basically what you'd expect. Marked by a laundry list of far-left priorities, it mentions Donald Trump over one hundred times.
As RedState reported, it's also full of misleading nonsense, such as claiming that Democrats are "rebuilding" America's broadband network despite their $42 billion allocation not producing anything thus far. Naturally, the "very fine people" hoax got a mention too.
In their haste to proclaim how bad the orange man is, though, the writers of the document missed something. Guess who is mentioned as the nominee multiple times? //
you'd think someone could have read over the Democratic Party's own platform before pushing it out with Biden still in the lead position. Well, you'd think that until you remember these are the same people who have run the federal government into the ground. Competency isn't exactly their strong suit.

Joe Rogan playing a flashback to Trump's appearance on "The View" when he was considering running for president back in 2011. //
Rogan talks about the "180" this was from "the machine's" effort to go after him now. They loved him until he got in the way of their power and control.
It's an astonishing change and, quite frankly, frightening evidence of the power of the machine and how it can flip the thoughts of people who fall for the propaganda. Just as they turned Trump into Hitler for people who never thought that before, they are now trying to turn Kamala Harris, who is part of a failed administration with no achievements, into some kind of inspirational candidate and ignore all the negatives. //

Twenty years ago, Donald Trump ran through New Your City with the Olympic Torch and was praised by all. In 1986 Donald Trump, along with Rosa Parks and Muhammad Ali was given the "Ellis Island Award" in NYC for patriotism, tolerance and brotherhood. The leftist elite and legacy media all turned on Donald Trump when he came out as a Conservative and ran for President of the United States.

He was beloved by many people. Rappers would name-drop him in songs, politicians on both sides lined up to beg him for money. Then he decides to run for president as a Republican and they all turned him into Hitler overnight. He didn’t change, they all did.

I am well old enough to remember Donald Trump saying this same stuff back in the early 80's. He warned the government! He's never changed. The democrat party changed - they're no longer the party of my mother or even of my youth.
The Harris-Walz campaign team likes to term JD Vance "weird." But that says everything about how out of touch they are with the American people.
Vance was born into meager circumstances with a mother who was an addict, and he was raised by his grandmother. He worked his way up from that to join the Marines, finish college in two years, go to Yale Law School, become an editor of the Yale Law Journal, write a famous book Hillbilly Elegy, clerk for a federal judge, get into the tech industry and investing, then become a senator. He is walking, talking evidence of the American Dream. I want someone who understands how to get to the American Dream, not someone who has been fighting to drive the country to the far left and would destroy that dream.
On Friday in North Carolina, what Harris was proposing was $1.7 trillion in giveaways/spending which would cause more inflation, as well as price controls which would further destroy the economy. She doesn't understand (or care) what she did wrong the first time and she's promising to do it again (make it even worse). Are we supposed to believe that corporations suddenly decided to be more greedy under her and Biden more than Trump? //
All Harris cares about is making promises to get elected, damn the consequences of those promises.
A 2019 video of a Kamala Harris campaign event made the rounds on the internet Friday night after the Democrat presidential hopeful unveiled some of her economic proposals, including her apparent desire for Soviet-style price controls on groceries.
During her ill-fated run for president, the now vice president said she could lower prices on drugs simply by having the government seize patents from pharmaceutical companies and “take over.” That’s not how a free-market economy is supposed to work, but the giddy Harris didn’t care:
Even CNN—normally a reliable mouthpiece for the DNC—jumped in with two separate segments savaging Kamala's "price gouging" proposals, which seem to come straight out of Venezuela.
We'll start with the network's Economics and Political Commentator Catherine Rampell, who went off on Kamala's Marxist ideas for almost a full two and a half minutes:
...first of all, nobody can explain what price gouging means. It's like that old line about pornography; I know it when I see it. In the sense that what does it mean to have an excessive price or an excessive profit margin? That seems to be shorthand for a price or a profit margin that bugs me, that seems too high. //
It's not going to be markets, it's not going to be supply and demand that's determining how much your grocery store charges you for milk or for eggs. It's going to be some bureaucrat in DC, which seems totally unworkable, first of all.
We've seen this kind of thing tried in lots of other countries before-- Venezuela, Argentina, the Soviet Union, etcetera. It leads to shortages, it leads to black markets, you know, [and] plenty of uncertainty…
Roughly 95 percent of these border crossers were men between the ages of 18 and 60, he said.
The San Diego-Tijuana Smart Border Coalition estimates that there are 200,000 crossings daily, meaning if there were 300,000 Venezuelans on top of the regular traffic, it is an increase of 150 percent. //
“They were right there as you go through the line, the car line, and the walking line,” he said. “They were right there all getting-gathering to come back into San Diego. I mean, it's not hidden. It's out in the open. I mean, everyone can see it.” //
“They were waving a lot of us in the cars; they were just waving us through,” he said.
“Today it was just literally just waving people through, and we still had a 25-to-30-minute late wait,” he said. //
“Normally they'll say: ‘Have a nice day, get out of here, thanks,’” he said. “He just went OK and waved everyone on. He didn't even ask for my identity document. He didn't even touch it. He was just sitting in his chair.” //
The businessman said it was also a betrayal that it took him 19 months to secure his Global Entry pass, while he heard foreigners secure theirs in 10-to-14 days.
The eyewitness himself said he felt his government failed him as he said the migrants were taken care of better than American citizens with new clothes, new shoes, and backpacks.
“They were well-dressed, well-fed, and had all the supplies they need,” he said.
British author and conservative political commentator Douglas Murray put the paramount choice in the 2024 presidential election — and all presidential elections — into proper perspective, and it couldn't be more stark.
Kamala Harris believes she knows the choice before the public in November. It is between going “forwards” and going “backwards.” Since the Democratic nominee is wise about the nature of time, she insists that this November, America should choose to go forward.
In fact, it would be good if this country could go back. To the economy we had before Kamala Harris and Joe Biden entered office. Because the most consequential choice there is in this election is between left-wing economics and right-wing economics. Between the economics of Biden-Harris and the economics of Donald Trump.
In some areas of life, the left-right divide is blurry. But in economics, the difference is clear. //
Murray then nailed the "clear difference."
It is between those who would grow the size of the economy and those who would grow the size of the state. //
"For once," Murray wrote, "we can judge the candidates not on their words but on their deeds," adding: "Unfortunately, this is not good news for Kamala Harris.". //
He also noted that Democrats like to pretend Trump's tax cuts only benefited the rich, which he called "simply untrue."
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (2017) didn’t just massively spur economic growth, it also saw the average taxpayer receive an on-average tax cut of around $1,500.
WaPo Busts Kamala in Glorious Op-Ed Linking 'Communist' and Her Proposed 'Price Controls' – RedState
What are these “clear rules of the road” or the thresholds that determine when a price or profit level becomes “excessive”? The memo doesn’t say, and the campaign did not answer questions I sent seeking clarification. //
It’s hard to exaggerate how bad this policy is. It is, in all but name, a sweeping set of government-enforced price controls across every industry, not only food. Supply and demand would no longer determine prices or profit levels. Far-off Washington bureaucrats would. The FTC would be able to tell, say, a Kroger in Ohio the acceptable price it can charge for milk.
At best, this would lead to shortages, black markets and hoarding, among other distortions seen previous times countries tried to limit price growth by fiat. (There’s a reason narrower “price gouging” laws that exist in some U.S. states are rarely invoked.) At worst, it might accidentally raise prices. //
But more to the point: If your opponent claims you’re a “communist,” maybe don’t start with an economic agenda that can (accurately) be labeled as federal price controls. //
The "policy" is horrible, but you're just supposed to be vibing on how she's going to take care of the evil corporations. She apparently vetted this policy like she vetted her running mate Tim Walz — which is to say not at all or keeping her eyes covered about all the bad stuff. //

Now they are pushing citizenship at a record pace, hoping to use new citizens that "historically lean Democrat" to boost Harris’s election prospects.
Over 3.3 million immigrants have become naturalized citizens since the two entered the White House.
It is, without a doubt, an active attempt at “reshaping the electorate” in a way that could alter the outcome of the 2024 election. //

The most purely Leftist result of this effort as it seems to stand, would be if they were to vote Republican, which is more than possible, given the contradiction of people fleeing Leftism voting for Leftists.
This is so true, perhaps it has not occurred to Democrats that no longer wearing the mask they maintained since the end of WWII, might just matter in this regard.
Unfortunately, it is likely not that simple. This is really about padding Voter Rolls which amount to nameless numbers, as opposed to adding potential Voters, however illegal they may be.
Always, always, always take the Evil to the nth degree, with these people. It's where the reality of any matter will be found.
"It's going to stop us from being builders, and we need to support the side that's going to let our civilization thrive," Lonsdale added.
That's always been the trouble with leftist policies; they are deeply and fundamentally anti-growth, anti-business, and anti-prosperity. Kamala Harris's policies (at least, what we know of them if you can keep track of her policy changes as they go by) include increasing taxation and regulation and attempting to make sure "everyone ends up in the same place," which smacks of socialism.
These are not things that investment bankers or tech moguls want to hear. //

Don' you like the idea Kamala will pay millions of our tax dollars for armies of new government employees, just to track down the price of celery at your local super market?
Always, always, always ask how many new government employees (D) any Democrat program will require. That is the real name of the game - expand Big Government(D).
We are close to a critical tipping point where Big Government(D) finally swallows the rest of us whole. Yes, it is that critical.
A source told Axios that “the campaign buys search ads with news links to give voters searching for information about Vice President Harris more context.”
The campaign has rewritten headlines since August 3, targeting over a dozen outlets:
The Associated Press
CBS News
CNN
The Guardian
The Independent UK
NPR
PBS
Time
USA Today
The Guardian, CNN, USA Today, and NPR told Axios they had no idea the Harris campaign had these ads. //
The ads include links to real articles from the news outlets, but the headlines and supporting text have been altered to read as though the articles support the Harris campaign’s objectives. //

To be clear, they’re lying. The ‘support staff’ for the current administration makes all the decisions, determines what legislation to push, what to ignore, who to promote, what agendas to embrace, and so on. The only real decisions the two nitwits at the top of this anthill have made over the last three years is what bribes to take. The positions of the current administration have proven to be highly profitable for the current administration and their supporters, but crushing and destructive for the rest of the country. In order to get reelected, the support staff need to position the current administration as opposed to the current administration, and to that end they are lying like crazy. Hopefully, they lose. Big.
How can Harris please both her base and independents when they have such conflicting desires on these and so many other issues? The short answer is she cannot pull this off. At some point in the near future, Kamala will finally have to come clean with voters and make it clear where she stands on these pressing issues.
When this day finally comes, and Kamala outlines where she currently stands on everything from the economy to the border, a reckoning will occur. At this point, I believe Kamala and her campaign team are desperately trying to prolong the honeymoon. However, all honeymoons must end at some point. //

Elections are popularity contests these days. Particularly, who looks young and vibrant versus who doesn’t. Biden is out because he looked old and decrepit and finally, his senility became publicly displayed.
Harris appears youthful by comparison and that’s what the D’s are selling. It doesn’t matter how vacuous or radically progressive she is. It’s all imagery. It’s all Hollywood. Or You Tube for that matter. //

You are being optimistic. She will never have to define where she stands on any issue. This is a "vibes" version of a basement campaign.
Big government. Big spending. Big tax increases. //
IRS data showed that Minnesota loses “about ten households earning more than $200,000 for every six that it gains, which is the fifth worst ratio among the states.”
Harris said she was going to be focused on the economy when she gets around to putting out policy positions. But she's occupying office now; what has she done in that capacity? Biden-Harris has only made everything worse. So why would anyone believe anything about what she says she wants to do in the future? //
If she can't even deal with the regular press pool, how is she supposed to deal with hostile world leaders? This is nuts, she isn't even answering the press as much as Biden is.
