Kamala Harris on CNN: ‘Bidenomics’
Is ‘Good Work’
Posted By: Dreadnought, 8/30/2024 12:31:52 AM
Vice President Kamala Harris took ownership of the policies that led to costs soaring about 20 percent across the board during CNN’s Thursday interview. “There’s more to do. But that’s good work,” Harris said about “Bidenomics,” as CNN’s Dana Bash referenced the economic policies under the Biden-Harris administration: “You have been vice president for three and a half years. The steps that you’re talking about now, why haven’t you done them already?” Bash asked Harris. “Well, first of all, we had to recover as an economy, and we have done that. I’m very proud of the work that we have done that has brought inflation down

So what happened to that bounce that Kamala Harris was supposed to get after the DNC and maybe the interview that she finally got around to doing?
Turns out fake "joy" and a train wreck interview don't tend to give you much of a bump.
We've reported on how Nate Silver's model wasn't looking good for Kamala. It had Trump up in the Electoral College forecast, as well as in most of the battleground states. Liberal 'Joy'
Silver said:
But she's also got another problem: it's been a while since we've seen a poll showing Harris leading in Pennsylvania. A high-quality poll showing Harris
As he promised, California Gov. Gavin Newsom issued a proclamation convening a special legislative session on Saturday after the state Assembly and Senate failed to pass a proposal he submitted on August 15 that would require the state's refineries to maintain reserves to allegedly prevent "price gouging" when there are supply shortages. Of course, even analysts within Newsom's administration agreed that the measure would lead to a further increase in prices instead of bringing Californians any kind of relief at the pump. Democrat legislative leaders objected to Newsom's heavy-handed tactics because they'd already been working on various bills related to the issue and because they wanted
President Joe Biden responded to the news that Hersh Goldberg-Polin was one of the bodies that the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) had discovered in Gaza, and stated “Hamas leaders will pay for these crimes.”
Biden issued a statement that it was “now confirmed that one of the hostages” killed by Hamas terrorists was Goldberg-Polin. Biden described Goldberg-Polin’s death as “tragic” and “reprehensible.”
“Earlier today, in a tunnel under the city of Rafah, Israeli forces recovered six bodies of hostages held by Hamas,” Biden said in a statement. “We have now confirmed that one of the hostages killed by these vicious Hamas terrorists was an American citizen
It doesn't take an expert to know that Kamala Harris was out of her element during the softball interview with CNN. She's been avoiding interviews and press conferences for weeks, and despite finally agreeing to an interview with a friendly network conducted by a friendly host, she still needed her male running mate to accompany her.
But it should come as no surprise that a body language expert who analyzed Kamala's performance during the interview told Fox News Digital that Harris lacked both confidence and a presidential demeanor.
According to Susan Constantine, Harris frequently looked down during the CNN interview, which suggested that she was “not confident in what she’s saying.”
Looks like someone needs to say this for the hundred thousandth-and-second time: The United States is a constitutional republic, not a democracy. The Constitution makes it very plain. While the federal government has some democratic institutions (the House of Representatives - sort of) it also includes some very un-democratic institutions (the Senate, the Supreme Court) because the United States is not a democracy, and the Founders set it up deliberately to prevent government by direct democracy.
Leave it to MSNBC's execrable talking head Chris Hayes to neither know nor care about any of this. On Friday, he was in a bit of a snit over new polling showing
TAMPA, Fla. — Former President Donald Trump has shown his support for Amendment 3, Florida’s recreational marijuana amendment in a post shared on Saturday morning.
In a post on his Truth Social account, Trump said that despite people’s stance on the amendment, it will “happen through the approval of Voters, so it should be done correctly.”
The former President went on to say that State Legislature must “responsibly create laws” that will keep marijuana out of public places due to the smell before referring to “many of the Democrat-run Cities.” In the post, he argued that a Floridian caught with marijuana shouldn’t be criminalized when it is legal
Is Kamala Harris having second thoughts about picking Tim Walz as her running mate? If she isn't, she probably should be.
A new poll out of Pennsylvania is shedding some light on just how much of an own-goal that was. Before getting there, though, the topline is really good news for Donald Trump, showing him tied in the head-to-head and leading in the five-way matchup (which is more relevant). It appears Harris' momentum has been completely halted, with no perceivable bounce from the DNC. Bob Casey, the Democrat senator up for re-election in Pennsylvania, only being up two points is also a huge result for Republicans.
A federal appeals court rejected an appeal by pro-transgender advocates, allowing Alabama to keep protecting children and youths from transgender advocates.
The good news was matched by other events in Texas, Virginia, and Missouri where judges and university officials rejected demands from transgender advocates seeking to minimize the public’s recognition of the two male and female sexes.
The United States 11th Circuit Court of Appeals released a divided 173-page decision in which ten out of 11 judges took part, according to the Alabama Reflector.
This looks slightly more serious as an instance of political dishonesty than the Case of the Missing Big Mac, but maybe not by much. Apparently, a story told by Tim Walz about the George Bush campaign provoking him into a career in electoral politics has some serious holes in it. But is it far enough off from the truth to matter these days?
If a Democrat's origin story falls in the forest, will the media report it even if people are around to hear it?
Earlier this afternoon, investigative reporter Gabe Kaminsky dug into a tale told by Walz that claimed he had only chosen a career in politics
Brazil's supreme court on Friday ordered a nationwide suspension of Elon Musk's social network X after the company vowed to defy earlier court orders concerning content moderation and the appointment of a legal representative in the country.
Alexandre de Moraes, the court's top judge, has also ordered daily fines for people or businesses in Brazil that use virtual private networks (VPNs) or other methods to access X while the site is banned in the country, G1 Globo reported. The court issued a statement via its government website in Brazil on Friday, saying that it had ordered "the immediate and complete suspension of the operation of X, formerly Twitter,
Donald Trump says he will vote “no” on Florida’s abortion-rights referendum, after angering pro-lifers by suggesting that he would support the bill earlier this week.
Florida Amendment 4 would enshrine a constitutional right to abortion in the state. When asked on Thursday if he would vote for the ballot measure, Trump said that “I think the six-week [abortion ban] is too short. There has to be more time, and I’ve told them that I want more weeks,” leaving pro-life Republicans to assume that the president would vote for the referendum. Trump’s campaign later defensively said that he “has not yet said how he will vote on the ballot initiative”
HARRIS COUNTY, Texas - According to sources, Harris County Public Health Executive Director Barbie Robinson has been relieved of duty. She was appointed to the position in May 2021.
According to FOX 26's Greg Groogan, Robinson has recently faced heavy questioned about the administration of the DEMA non-emergency program and may have been doing private consulting for a third-party entity while on the Harris County payroll. Robinson was previously in Sonoma County as Director of Department of Health Services (DHS) for five years.
Harris County Administrator, Diana Ramirez released this statement:
Today, I made the difficult decision to dismiss Barbie Robinson from her role as Executive Director of Harris County Public Health.

On Thursday, former President Donald Trump generated a firestorm of controversy in pro-life political circles.[Snip]In response, Trump stated, “I think the six-week is too short. There has to be more time.” Many interpreted his comments to mean he would vote in favor of Amendment 4.[Snip]Lately, many pro-lifers have been frustrated with Trump because he has offered them precious little in terms of commitments on abortion policy.[Snip]By simply raising concerns about the full implications of Amendment 4, Trump could win back the support of some skeptical pro-life voters. More importantly, he would be performing a valuable service for pro-lifers in Florida and across the country.

Maybe President Joe Biden was never a serious member of the Washington, DC, establishment — like the Clintons, the Bushes, or the Obamas — or, maybe, the establishment just had no more use for him.
Either way, the knives seem to be out for the Biden family after Joe Biden stepped aside from the 2024 presidential election. In three leaks in the last month, members of the permanent political class in Washington disclosed damaging information about the Biden family.
One: Hunter Biden accepted $3,101,258 from Romanian partner Gabriel Popoviciu to “influence U.S. government agencies” when Joe Biden served as vice president, Special Counsel David Weiss said in a court filing.

Military personnel were reportedly deployed to guard the Wolcott Hotel in Manhattan at the request of state officials.
On Tuesday, citizen journalist Jason Goodman, founder of Crowdsource the Truth, captured footage of military stationed outside The Wolcott Hotel.
The Wolcott Hotel, located on West 31st Street in New York City, has recently been converted into a mega-shelter for migrants.
This transformation was confirmed by a report from the New York Post, which revealed that the hotel, once a bustling hub for tourists, has indefinitely closed its doors to regular guests back in 2023 due to the ongoing migrant crisis

'Who is running the country?'
Vice President Kamala Harris on Saturday skewered former President Donald Trump for filming at the Arlington National Cemetery, accusing him of exploiting his visit for political purposes, which is prohibited. (Snip) A half-hour later, Trump’s running mate, Ohio Sen. JD Vance, fired back at Harris in his own social media post: “President trump was there at the invitation of families whose loved ones died because of your incompetence.” “Why don’t you get off social media and go launch an investigation into their unnecessary deaths?” Vance added. The Trump campaign echoed that line of defense in its own social media post

AURORA, Colo. — The national attention on the presence of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua (TdA) in Colorado could harm immigrants who are not associated with the gang, according to activists. Videos of people alleging Venezuelan gang members are "taking over" Aurora have circulated on social media, particularly claims about an apartment complex the city is closing near Colfax and Peoria. One video depicts several males, who appear to be armed, attempting to break into an apartment unit at an unidentified complex. Neither the city nor the Aurora Police Department has confirmed those claims. Activists told Denver7 the headlines are
Florida executed Loran Cole on Thursday in the 1994 murder of an 18-year-old college student whose big sister was raped during what started as a fun camping weekend and became a family's worst nightmare.
Cole, 57, was executed by lethal injection and pronounced dead at 6:15 p.m. at the Florida State Prison in Raiford, about 40 miles southwest of Jacksonville. It marked Florida's first execution of the year and the 13th in the nation.
Cole was convicted in the 1994 murder of Florida State University student John Edwards and the sexual assault of his older sister in the Ocala National Forest, about 70 miles northwest of Orlando.

San Francisco 49ers rookie Ricky Pearsall was shot during a robbery incident in the city's Union Square, according to police.
Pearsall is now in stable condition and a suspect is in custody, District 3 Supervisor Aaron Peskin told the local NBC affiliate.
The first-year receiver was reportedly targeted over his Rolex watch. There are also unconfirmed claims that Pearsall was at an autograph signing at or around the time the shooting took place. The 23-year-old Arizona native is one week away from his first NFL game against the New York Jets on September 9, although his status for that contest was already clouded by a shoulder injury.
