Swearer: On the 2nd Amendment, Harris shoots herself in foot—again

By Amy Swearer  | Commentary, Daily Signal It’s hard to reconcile Vice President Kamala Harris’ friendly overtures to gun owners with the footage that recently emerged of a 2007 press conference in which the then-district attorney of San Francisco said cops could conduct random home inspections to enforce compliance with the city’s new “safe storage” laws. Yes, really. She told reporters: We’re going to require responsible behaviors among everybody in the community, and 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 and safe in the way you conduct your affairs.

Pompeo says Zelensky meetings with Harris and Trump were ‘very different’

By Zach LaChance  | Washington Examiner Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Friday addressed Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky‘s separate meetings with Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump, saying they were “very different.” Speaking on Jesse Watters Primetime, Pompeo was asked how he saw the meetings between Zelensky and Harris and Zelensky and Trump. “Very different meetings. In one case, he was meeting with a vice president who was in charge when tens of thousands of people of his — Zelensky’s — people in Ukraine were killed. And the other president had deterred Vladimir Putin for four years,” he said. Pompeo then defended Trump’s record as president, saying the difference between Harris and Trump “couldn...

Walz could harm Harris, not help her, in debate against Vance

By Barnini Chakraborty | Washington Examiner When Vice President Kamala Harris picked Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate in August, the choice was seen as a move to balance out her presidential ticket and help broaden her appeal to working-class voters. Democrats bet his bonafides as a former high school teacher, veteran, and gun owner with folksy charm would help Harris, who has been criticized for being inauthentic and a flip-flopper on policy. But for all of Walz’s midwestern “dad energy,” his record and penchant for tall tales will be in the spotlight on Oct. 1 when he faces Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) in a vice presidential debate. In what is undoubtedly the largest stage of his political career, Walz risks undermining Harris even furthe...

McElwee: Kamala Harris’ Pennsylvania Problem

By Charles F. McElwee | Politico America’s second Catholic president was visiting his childhood neighborhood in April, when he employed a bit of ritualized Irish Democratic politicking. “I’m Joe Biden,” he introduced himself to a patron at a small coffee shop gathering in Green Ridge, long a bastion of Irish-Catholic families who work in law and politics. “I went to St. Paul’s.” The greeting, an echo of the old Catholic habit of identifying oneself by church parish, was Biden’s homage to the parochial nature of Scranton, home to one of the nation’s highest concentrations of white Catholics.

Jacobs: If Harris can ‘eliminate the filibuster for Roe,’ what else can she nuke it for?

By Christopher Jacobs | Commentary, The Federalist Democrats will use abortion as a ‘wedge’ issue to nuke the filibuster, allowing them to enact many other bad policies. What does abortion have to do with the future of fracking in the United States? Much more than one might expect. Kamala Harris’ announcement that she supports an “exception” to the filibuster underscores the stakes in November’s election. If Democrats gain unified control of both houses of Congress and the White House in January, Harris’ statement makes clear that they would undoubtedly use their power to pass radical legislation — not just on abortion but on energy and many other topics.

Commentary: Kamala Harris’s holistic failure is reason voters want a change in direction

By Washington Examiner | Commentary Vice President Kamala Harris got one thing right in her speech to the Economic Club of Pittsburgh on Wednesday. “The American economy is the most powerful force for innovation and wealth creation in the world,” Harris said. “We just need to move past the failed policies that we have proven don’t work.” True enough. We need to move past the proven failure of the past four years’ economic policies. Harris is the presidential candidate who has been in power during those years, and there is a reason voters want a change in direction. MSNBC anchor Stephanie Ruhle, who supports Harris for president, touched on this problem in a follow-up interview with Harris, asking the vice president what she would tell the majo...

Harris heads to southern border looking to flip script on immigration criticisms

By Paul Steinhauser  | Fox News Vice President Harris stops in battleground Arizona on Friday to hold a campaign event along the U.S. southern border with Mexico as the Democrat presidential nominee works to turn the issue of immigration and border security from a liability into a strength. Harris has faced frequent attacks from her Republican opponent, former President Trump, and his allies who argue she's weak on border security, an issue that many Republicans see as the vice president's political Achilles' heel. Harris has faced intense criticism over the surge of migrants across the nation's southern border during the first three years of President Biden's administration. The Trump campaign, on the eve of Harris' first border visit as a presidential nominee, called i...

What did Kamala Harris do with a $42 billion project? Well…

By Katie Pavlish | Town Hall During an interview with MSNBC Wednesday night, Democratic presidential candidate and Vice President Kamala Harris promised to build three million homes should she be elected President in November. She also made the promise during an economic speech Wednesday.  But Harris' record shows she isn't capable of building anything, and it's been costing Americans billions of dollars.  First, Harris was the tie-breaking vote for the "Inflation Reduction Act," which even President Joe Biden admits was a massive handout to the global warming lobby, with expensive subsidies and tax breaks. She also advocated for Biden's infrastructure bill, which included $8 billion to build 500,000 electric vehicle chargers across the country by 2030.  So far, they've built e...

Harris struggles to provide clear answers on economy, taxes, and unions in MSNBC interview

By Brianna Lyman | The Federalist Ruhle did concede that Harris couldn’t “give a clear and direct answer.” For perhaps the first time, MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle was the smartest person in the room during her Wednesday interview with Vice President Kamala Harris. The interview went about as well as you could expect between a candidate who has dodged press questions and a “journalist” who justified Harris’ lack of availability to the American public because “she’s running against Trump.” Ruhle did concede that Harris couldn’t “give a clear and direct answer,” though couched that by saying it was “okay because we’re not talking about clear and direct issues.” READ THE FULL STORY AT THE FEDERALIST

Harris co-chair: she’s ‘going to keep a lot of the same policies’ from Biden

By Ian Hanchett | Breitbart On Tuesday’s broadcast of CNBC’s “Squawk Box,” Harris-Walz Co-Chair Sen. Chris Coons (D-DE) responded to a question on if people should know more details about the economic agenda of 2024 Democratic presidential candidate Vice President Kamala Harris by stating that she has given “a broad vision” on her priorities and some policies, and is “going to keep a lot of the same policies and agendas” from President Joe Biden. Co-host Andrew Ross Sorkin asked, “Do you think that the American public, voters, many of whom, by the way, have the opportunity to vote right now…deserve to know specific details about her economic plan? Should you know what your tax rate is going to be or at least what she believes your tax rate should be before you go to the polls? Should...
