Russia sees U.S. Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris as a more predictable opponent than Republican Donald Trump, though in any case there is no prospect of an improvement in relations with Washington, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said. In an interview with Pavel Zarubin, a TV reporter with favoured access to the Kremlin, Peskov also appeared dismissive of Trump's boast that he could end the Ukraine war within 24 hours if U.S. voters returned him to the White House. Before Joe Biden announced his withdrawal from November's election and threw his support behind Harris, Russian President Vladimir Putin had said that Moscow preferred Biden over Trump, describing

She's the Kremlin's candidate. It's Putin's endorsement.

What are odds anyway of Putin surviving until the November celebration? A puny little country like Ukraine has taken out his mighty army.

True indeed; Kamala Harris is predictable and consistent in her radical Marxist/Communist thoughts, policies, anti-American statements and her choice of a Communist, pro-Chinese running mate. Veep candidate Walz just may be more radical and more Communist than Harris. It is damn likely that the Kremlin (and China too) hopes those two win in November, because their heads are already in the Communist orbit.

Perhaps she's more predictable because you and she are connaturally connected. And freedom introduces uncertainty.

Of course she is. She 'made it' by servicing Willie Brown. I guess she borrowed some knee pads from Monika Lewinsky. None of the jobs he gave her were given because of merit, instead she had other 'things' to offer than anything to do with intellect. Just as we know over here, she opens her mouth and rubbish comes out.

That's why there were no wars under President Donald John Trump aka PDJT. He was unpredictable. Say what you want about the man but I for one want regimes like Russia, China, Iran and North Korea to fear us. Those so-called leaders are salivating at the prospect of Harris/Walz to ooze into the WH like Commie sludge.

Joe Biden is back before the cameras. In some ways, it would be better if he stayed on vacation, as he may do less damage then when he's actually before the cameras and talking. How wrong it is that the Democrats have put us in that position with him, by not being honest about his condition. Kamala Harris is chief among those who has not been honest with the American people about Biden's issues. After making bizarre comments before and after a meeting in the Situation Room about the situation in Israel, Biden went with Harris to Pittsburgh for a campaign event with union people.

Before Joe Biden dropped out of the presidential race, Trump was gaining ground in a number of blue states. Maine, Virginia, New Hampshire, and even Minnesota were in or approaching toss-up territory. When Kamala replaced Biden on top of the ticket, the polls told us that these states were no longer in reach for Trump. However, that may be changing. Recent polling shows that Virginia may still be in play, and Kamala is headed to New Hampshire this week, which may be a sign that her campaign is worried about the state. Now we're starting to see numbers that suggest that her selection of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz

Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign is going on defense as former President Donald Trump gains steam in blue states after Harris’s failure to achieve a post-convention bump, which most modern campaigns take for granted. The campaign is sending Harris and her top surrogates — ticket mate Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and husband Doug Emhoff — to blue states after a weekend of planned swing state visits. On Wednesday, Harris will reportedly visit New Hampshire — where she enjoyed only a four-point advantage, according to an Emerson College/WHDH survey before the convention — for a campaign event yet to be announced. Walz will be in his home state of Minnesota,

A couple days ago we were complaining about Biden being on a beach. Maybe it would be better if he had stayed there. After six Israelis were brutally murdered, including American Hersh Goldberg, Biden had the audacity to make the comment that Prime Minister Netanyahu is not doing enough to get the hostages out. That comes from a man who is allowing pro-Hamas protests in our streets.

A new party founded by a prominent leftist was also making an immediate impact, while the parties in Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s unpopular national government were set for weak results. Projections for ARD and ZDF public television based on exit polls and partial counting put support for Alternative for Germany, or AfD, at about 31-33 percent in Thuringia and 30-31% in Saxony.

In one of the most moving moments of the Democratic National Convention last month, the parents of an American hostage of Hamas, Hersh Goldberg-Polin, spoke about their son as the delegates chanted, “Bring them home.” Overnight Sunday, Hersh’s dead body was discovered in a tunnel under Rafah with five other dead hostages. According to the IDF, evidence suggests that the hostages had been alive for nearly eleven months, but were executed by Hamas within the past few days. In a late-night statement, President Biden said he was “devastated and outraged” and declared, “Make no mistake, Hamas leaders will pay for these crimes.”

A pair of reparations-related bills for the descendants of enslaved Black Americans failed to pass in the California legislature on Saturday after backers said the bills would not move forward. Authored by Democrat state Sen. Steven Bradford of Inglewood, Senate Bill 1331 would have created a new state fund for reparations, while Senate Bill 1403 would have established a state agency to oversee these efforts and determine who would be eligible. These measures were considered key components of some lawmakers’ ambitious efforts to pass legislation aimed at atoning for what they said was a legacy of racist policies that drove disparities for Black people, from housing to education to health.

Haunting video posted on Telegram on Monday shows the six doomed Israeli hostages speaking before their murders. X “Bombing here never stops, and we are afraid for our lives. We are scared of dying here,’’ Yerushalmi said, according to the Jerusalem Post.
