On Wednesday, one of her prior statements went viral in a resurrected clip from a May 2007 press conference. It is more than a little concerning.

Kamala: “Just because you legally possess a gun in the sanctity of your locked home doesn't mean that we're not going to walk into that home and check to see if you're being responsible.”
She’s an anti-gun RADICAL.

She was talking about legislation she helped write that imposed penalties for gun owners who fail to store their firearms properly at home. //
Harris said the new measure was about legislating "our values" in an attempt to "encourage certain kinds of behavior."
"When we create laws, it's not only about creating an opportunity, if you will, to prosecute someone for committing a crime, but more importantly, when we legislate our values, it's about trying to encourage certain types of behavior," she said at the time.
Harris also once again placed January 6th above 9/11 and the OKC bombing as the “worst attack on our democracy.” //

“(Please do not forget the OKC bombing. I get why 9/11 receives the most attention but do not forget the 1995 OKC bombing.)”
When I started out collecting data as a 2A activist in the late ’80s, the largest mass murder on US soil was the Happyland Social Club fire, an arsonist with a jar of gasoline.
Then came Waco.
Then came OKC.
Then came 9/11.
Then came COVID (much less qualifiable, but clearly the record-holder).
In a country with 250 years of history, all this escalation in just 30 years. My God.
You’ll notice that NONE of these mass murders were committed with guns… but at least two of them — the ones that involved housewives and children — were committed by our own government.
Government democide — entirely exclusive of wartime deaths — has killed more humans than all wars combined. //

I forgot about the Happyland fire…probably because no one in the media brings it up anymore. I would add that the worst school spree murder happened way back in the 1920 or early 1930, the Bath School Massacre, which was also perpetrated entirely by firebombing. Close to 40-dead (mostly children) and another 60(ish) injured. I’m always fearful firebombing might come back into vogue again.
CNN’s Daniel Dale has done the unthinkable. He took aim at @KamalaHQ, the official rapid response page on X for Vice President Kamala Harris’s presidential campaign. With over 1.3 million followers, the account has a wide reach, and according to Dale, “has made a habit of misleadingly clipping and inaccurately captioning video clips to attack former President Donald Trump.”
The account has been “repeatedly deceptive” and has made “inaccurate comments on multiple occasions,” Dale wrote. And he goes on to detail eight of the account’s most disingenuous posts from the last month.

"Democrats ..., saying they are happy for Harris to say what she needs to say to win."
Well, that tells you everything you need to know about Democrats. Islam calls it taqiyya.
And if you want to know how much she "won" the debate, look at the fact that largely every media report from the debate is about what Trump said. No one cares about what Harris said because she never really said anything. //
The campaign clearly knows that, despite the hype, it's a neck-and-neck race between Harris and Trump, and swing state polling gives Trump the advantage still. That's why they're bringing out the old tried and true out of the reserves.
That's right. The Obamas and the Clintons are hitting the campaign trail.
NEW: ABC News Caught Grossly Deceptively Editing Kamala Harris' Disastrous Solo Interview – RedState
The above exchange can be seen online by going directly to ABC 6's website. Guess who didn't see it? That would be the network's television audience. According to Tom Elliott, who runs Grabien, a media service that archives news coverage, ABC 6 and Taff made an astonishingly dishonest edit to the interview before playing it on the nightly news.
Specifically, the above word salad was completely cut out of the interview, and instead, a later portion was spliced in. In the recording of the live broadcast, you can hear Taff ask the question posed in the above excerpt, yet the answer Harris is shown giving was not her actual answer in the interview.
Here is the comparison between the actual interview and what ABC 6 put on air.
Tom Elliott @tomselliott

Maybe someone has already mentioned this, but the rambling answer Kamala Harris gave last night on inflation is not what @6abc actually aired. Instead they edited her response so that it went straight to her "policies." Compare/contrast the two clips below

.@6ABC and Brian Taff shilling for Kamala.
And btw WPVI isn't just the Philly ABC affiliate. It's an ABC-Disney owned-and-operated station. //
What Taff and his network did is not journalism. It's activism, and they had no excuse to mislead people by chopping up the interview in that way. Harris is a vapid empty suit, and voters deserve to know that.
Lochel's Bakery in Hatboro, Pennsylvania, had some big news in their big cookie poll as of Friday morning.
Every four years, they hold a poll where people can buy red cookies or blue cookies--with the candidates' names on them and the election year--to indicate their choice for president. And the current count in the poll, based on how many have been bought for each candidate, is not looking good for Kamala Harris.
As of Friday morning, the shop has sold a whopping 5,200 Trump cookies vs. 500 Harris cookies. //
Lochel's correctly determined three of the four elections since 2012, The only one that didn't turn out was in 2020. Then they ultimately sold 31,804 Trump cookies vs. 5,750 Biden cookies before the election. That was six times as many, but they're ahead of that pace so far this time.
When I first hit play, I was expecting some typical TikTok political video with a person on a coach saying some funny one-liner. What I wasn't expecting was for the camera to pan and show multiple U.S. servicemembers, currently serving in a combat zone, ripping Harris for her misleading statement:
Where these troops are deployed is not something we can know (or should know), but somewhere in Iraq or Syria is a decent enough guess. So, do those places qualify as combat zones? When I posted the video, I had a few people snipe in the replies that because America isn't in an active, large-scale war, Harris wasn't lying. That's not how combat zones are defined, though, and the United States government still recognizes much of the Middle East as an active combat zone.
To pretend otherwise is to play a ridiculous, insulting game of semantics that should be ruthlessly mocked into oblivion. American service members are still serving in combat zones where they are being injured and killed by rocket attacks and during active operations. Those people didn't cease to exist because Harris needed a talking point on Tuesday night.
One of her most galling claims is that she has "plans" to make the economy better. If that were true, why hasn't she done any of it already, as Trump said? Why did she vote for spending that made inflation worse, a very basic principle she doesn't seem to understand? //
But one of the things she's been saying was that Goldman Sachs had endorsed her "plan." //

Peter Doocy: Harris keep saying we’re not going back but if the Biden/Harris presidency was so good then why do they need a new way forward
4:19 PM · Sep 12, 2024
So what would be the point? Does America really need another three-on-one slap-fest that shows us nothing new about either candidate? Trump has already debated twice. There's nothing else to learn about who he is or where he stands. On the other side, Harris isn't going to suddenly start giving details about her policies, and that would be the only possible value to be found in holding another debate. //

This is the right move. We now have three separate polls telling us the same thing: Harris won the debate and Trump won the election. Undecided voters went in hoping to find out more about Harris and what her plans were. When they did not get that, they decided to vote for Trump because they pretty much know what his policies will be and their lives were a lot better then than they are now.
It was her choice to spend her time painting Happy Talk word pictures and telling everybody how horrible Trump is... instead of telling anyone why she is going to be any different than the four years we just had. She didn't do what the voters wanted. I wouldn't give her a second chance. //

I think this is why the moderators never followed up or challenged Harris: she was given the questions, her team came up with slick answers, and she memorized them in order. If the moderators had deviated from the list it would have thrown her all out of whack, and they didn't want to trip her up.
The problem with all the mockery was that Trump's claim was true, as evidenced by an article from CNN of all places, that had been published the day before the debate, and which detailed Harris' answers to a 2019 ACLU questionnaire: https://assets.aclu.org/live/uploads/2024/08/Harris-ACLU-Candidate-Questionnaire.pdf //
To make matters worse, Free Beacon reporter Joe Gabriel Simonson added on Twitter that "In a subsequent exchange, Glasser’s editor said the New Yorker does not 'see a need to issue a correction.'"
said the decision to attempt to correct the candidates was in response to the June 27 CNN debate between Trump and President Biden, whose poor performance led to his exit from the race.
“People were concerned that statements were allowed to just hang and not [be] disputed by the candidate Biden, at the time, or the moderators,” Davis said.
Stephen L. Miller @redsteeze

I said the reason for how the moderators behaved in the ABC debate was simply because they were not going to let happen to Kamala Harris, what happened to Joe Biden and here she is admitting it

Davis as much as admitted she had been planning all along to enter the debate on Harris’s side and provide the rebuttal that she didn’t think Harris (like Biden) would be capable of making. Davis must consider Harris as dumb as Biden.
In her closing remarks, Harris noted that she began her career as a prosecutor (Yes, I thought I heard a similar sounding word, too). She rose to California attorney general, U.S. senator and, four years ago, the DEI vice presidential pick of another older man in her life who offered her the allure of power.
“And I’ll tell you, as a prosecutor I never asked a victim or a witness ‘Are you a Republican or a Democrat?’ The only thing I ever asked them, ‘Are you okay?’” Harris said.
And that really is the question, isn’t it? Are you okay? Are you better or worse off after the Biden-Harris governing experiment?
Trump and his running mate, Sen. J.D. Vance, are campaigning on that question — and another.
“So, she just started by saying she’s going to do this, she’s going to do that, she’s going to do all these wonderful things. Why hasn’t she done it?” Trump said in his closing arguments. “She’s been there for 3 1/2 years. They’ve had 3 1/2 years to fix the border. They’ve had 3 1/2 years to create jobs and all the things we talked about. Why hasn’t she done it?”
there's a new debate hoax raging. It centers on Trump's comments about threatening "Abdul," who he cited as a Taliban leader he negotiated with in 2020. The mention sent the fingers of journalists everywhere scurrying on keyboards. Multiple major news outlets, including The Hill and Forbes, wrote mocking headlines and suggested it was "unclear" who Trump was referring to because he's just so darn stupid.
“I got involved. And Abdul is the head of the Taliban. He is still the head of the Taliban,” Trump said. “And I told Abdul, ‘Don’t do it anymore. You do it anymore, you’re going to have problems.’ And he said, ‘Why do you send me a picture of my house?’ I said, ‘You’re going to have to figure that out, Abdul.’ And for 18 months we had nobody killed.”
It’s not clear who Trump was referring to.
Hibatullah Akhundzada is the Taliban’s leader, having been in charge since 2016.
It wasn't unclear, though. I know that because if you read the very same articles I linked above, both go on to explain exactly who Trump was talking about.
Abdul Ghani Baradar is not an obscure figure. He is the co-founder of the Taliban and currently serves as the terrorist government's "prime minister." He was also the lead negotiator and head of policy during the 2020 negotiations. So who is dumber? Trump for citing "Abdul," or the know-nothing journalists who couldn't be bothered to use Google for two minutes? //

It doesn't matter Journalists can't seem to do their job anymore. Used to be an investigative reporter would run down all the fact and report the results without bias. Now only a handful do. I can think of Catherine Harris, Glen Greenwald, and Matt Tiabi. Everyone else is just trying to score points and get clicks. A sign of a dying media is the need for sensationalism and yellow journalist tactics. //

I concur. Kind of like The Boy Who Cried Wolf. They're trying to push us to the point that we challenge everything they say as a lie, then they spin it as "those right-wing MAGA nuts are trying to say that everything we tell you is a lie. Don't believe them!" John and Jane Doe begin to think the liars are telling the truth and everyone that disagrees with them is a liar. Right before the wolf eats them.

Muir was strong in his debate with Trump. Harris was a lousy moderator
Here are some of the biggest falsehoods Harris told during her debate with Trump.
She spread every hoax about Trump that she could think of, starting with the lie that Trump had anything to do with Project 2025. //
But perhaps the two worst lies — and that was hard to pick because she told so many — were where she claimed police were killed on Jan. 6. and the "fine people" lie about Charlottesville. Both are provably false — the fine people lie has been debunked for years, is on video, and even the liberal Snopes has roundly debunked it. //

I think he lost but not badly. Kamala struggled at first and really seemed like she wanted to stamp her heels and throw a hissy when Trump got some zingers in early then the moderators tipped the scales. Once the game up on him Kamala relaxed and Trump allowed himself to he baited. After that he seemed angry in most of his responses until just about the very end when he started to recover. His closing was better than hers slightly, but was not seen by as many who tuned in earlier and likely tuned out midway. Just goes to show why "Anytime, anywhere" Kamala was afraid to debate him on fox. She can't do these things without emotional-support humans/moderators.
