Taunting Trump might not have been what
undecided voters wanted to see from Harris
Posted By: Moritz55, 9/13/2024 6:40:20 PM
Vice President Kamala Harris is being lauded for her debate performance against former President Donald Trump on Tuesday night, in sharp contrast with President Joe Biden back in June. The question now becomes whether Harris’s well-executed plan of irritating Trump and joining with the moderators and Trump himself to draw attention to his negatives was what the voters she most needs really wanted. Trump pollsters Tony Fabrizio and Travis Tunis say that, according to their data from the top seven battleground states, the answer is no. “We found that despite the best efforts of Kamala Harris and [the] media to portray the debate as

Republican vice presidential candidate JD Vance is irked that a House Judiciary Committee hearing on the Biden-Harris border crisis and its impact on American families on Tuesday was largely ignored by the mainstream media. Many major news outlets ignored testimony from victims of crimes stemming from illegal immigration, including the mother of Jocelyn Nungaray, a 12-year-old girl found strangled to death in Texas in June by two Venezuelan illegal immigrants, according to authorities.
"Kamala Harris' open border policies have taken countless American lives. The liberal media is doing all they can to cover it up, even ignoring the heartbreaking testimony
Too often, lying and politics go hand in hand. But lying to cover up responsibility for the deaths of 13 brave Americans in Afghanistan is reprehensible and dishonors their memory.
Kamala Harris is rewriting history and gaslighting the American public to shift blame from her administration’s failed policy in Afghanistan that created death and chaos and turned that country — and billions of dollars of US military assets — over to the Taliban.
Their failure in Afghanistan led to the destruction of American credibility in the world — and led directly to Iran attacking our ally Israel and Russia invading our ally Ukraine in Europe.
“Come on.”
That was Vice President Harris’ response to Donald Trump in the presidential debate when he pressed her for any gestational limit on abortion.
Would she, he asked, “allow abortion in the eighth month, ninth month, seventh month?”
“Come on,” and a smirk. That’s all she had. That’s because that is, in fact, all she and her running mate, Governor Tim Walz, have when actually forced to come up with any limits on abortion they would support.
They oppose any and all protections for unborn babies and their mothers, including minors, and apparently, babies born alive from botched abortions.

ABC News rebuked by pro-life group, asked

for correction of abortion claim by debate moderator 5 replies
A prominent pro-life group isn’t happy with ABC News over its hosting of Tuesday’s presidential debate between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Trump. Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America on Wednesday sent a letter to ABC News president Almin Karamehmedovic and debate moderators David Muir and Linsey Davis that urges them to issue a correction and meet with abortion survivors over a viral moment where Davis fact-checked Trump.
"[The] ABC News Presidential Debate featured network moderator Linsey Davis attempting to debunk former President Trump's assertion that some states allow for the killing of an infant after birth," Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America president Marjorie Dannenfelser wrote
Time magazine was forced to correct its coverage of the ABC News Presidential Debate after implying former President Trump’s statement that Vice President Kamala Harris supported free gender transition treatment for detained migrants was "false." During the ABC News Presidential Debate Tuesday night, Trump remarked on Harris’ old position as one of many left-wing issues she appeared to have walked back on since running for president.
"Now she wants to do transgender operations on illegal aliens who are in prison," Trump said.
Though Harris pledged she would support taxpayer-funded gender care for detained migrants in an ACLU candidate questionnaire during her first presidential campaign, TIME Magazine first reported the statement as "false."
Haile Selassie, Ethiopia's former emperor, was dethroned 50 years ago. The king, who befriended leaders in the US, Europe and China, left a mixed legacy in his home country. On September 12, 1974, Haile Selassie, Ethiopia's last monarch, met with a delegate from a newly formed military committee called the Derg at his palace in Addis Ababa. The meeting was the Derg's final step to overthrowing the imperial regime.
Representatives of the delegate addressed Haile Selassie as "your Majesty" and "humbly begged" for him to move to a designated place for his health and security.

the question' 4 replies
CNN host Jake Tapper took Vice President Kamala Harris to task for not answering direct questions during Tuesday's presidential debate on ABC. On Wednesday, Tapper said Harris was less than forthcoming about her policies, beginning the debate "by punting the first question on the economy."
"It went on from there," Tapper said after playing a clip of her response. "Despite the economy being the number one issue facing the country, the sitting vice president generally reverted to talking points about a few of her policy proposals. Even Harris allies today are saying that she needs to talk more about what she will do for Americans if elected."
Not one question Tuesday night about the execution of Hersh Goldberg-Polin and five other hostages two weeks ago, or about any of the Americans murdered by Hamas terrorists on October 7? Not one question on Iran, which is within weeks of acquiring a nuclear weapon and which is paying and perhaps precisely directing repeated attacks by its proxies on American forces in the Gulf or Arabia, the Red Sea, Iraq or Jordan?
Not one question about the capacity of President Joe Biden to continue as president?
And not one, single fleeting question about the People’s Republic of China, and its genocide against the Uyghurs, its oppression of Hong Kong
Vice President Kamala Harris did not trip on the debate stage, smack her head on the lectern, pass out or vomit on herself Tuesday night. She cackled only once.
So for her, it was a ringing success.
But her big, insurmountable political problem remains. Will voters cast their ballots based on a fairly unmemorable debate in which she said nothing? Or will they cast their ballots based on whether they are better off today than they were nearly four years ago when Ms. Harris and President Biden took office?
Voters will have been sorely disappointed Tuesday evening if they were hoping ABC News debate moderators would elicit answers from Vice President Kamala Harris about how her policies differ from the failed presidency of President Joe Biden or why she has abandoned so many positions she embraced during her 2020 failed run for the White House.
The moderators, David Muir and Linsey Davis, did open the evening by asking Harris if she believes people are better off now than they were four years ago, but when Harris completely avoided the question to give a scripted little speech about her planned “opportunity economy,” they did nothing to stop her
In a revealing interview on "Meet the Press" on Sunday, Senator Bernie Sanders (S-Vt.) said the quiet part out loud, proving what many conservatives have been saying for weeks now: Kamala Harris’s sudden attempt to shift toward the center is nothing more than a political charade to win votes, not a genuine change of ideology. When pressed by host Kristen Welker on Harris’s reversal of key progressive positions—like her prior support for Medicare for All and a ban on fracking—Sanders’s response said it all. Welker asked Sanders directly if Harris was abandoning her progressive ideals, noting that these were issues Sanders himself has championed. Instead

but tells Americans to vote for 'lesser

Pope Francis on Friday slammed both major U.S. presidential candidates as "against life," because of Vice President Kamala Harris's stance on abortion, and former President Donald Trump's stance on immigration, but told Americans to choose the "lesser of two evils."
The pope, who has weighed in on politics as the head of the Catholic Church more than his recent predecessors, did not indicate which candidate was considered the "lesser of two evils." (snip) The pope previously blasted Trump for his immigration policies in the 2016 presidential election, because of his desire to build a border wall. Francis claimed that anyone who did so was "not a Christian."

Along with Hollywood "Meathead" Rob Reiner, La La Land's Robert De Niro is undoubtedly one of the most Trump-loathing people on the planet. The venom spewed by these two leftists against the former president is so toxic that the unintended humor is off the charts.
Toss Chris Wallace, former host of "Fox News Sunday," now a CNN simp, into the mix, and it doesn't get any better.
Such was the case on Friday when Wallace trotted onto the set of "CNN News Central" to pimp his latest episode of HBO Max's "Who’s Talking to Chris Wallace?" with De Niro. In both shows, Wallace fawned over TDS-riddled De Niro

Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., slammed the Electoral College as an "obsolete" system from the 18th century that is deadly for Americans.Raskin spoke with The Free Speech project at the Riggs Library in Washington D.C. on Friday. The congressman expounded on a variety of topics, particularly his efforts to discredit and ultimately circumvent the Electoral College in the name of protecting American democracy. "We passed the nation’s first National Popular Vote Interstate Compact," he said, touting his work. "We initiated that, we’re now more than two thirds of the way there, because it’s 2024.
For more than two centuries, it’s a town that has stayed out of the spotlight as its largely law-abiding folk quietly carried on with their lives.
It's so unassuming, even its name was taken from another city.
But now Springfield, Ohio, has suddenly found itself under worldwide scrutiny over its burgeoning Haitian population – and you can taste the tension on the streets.The latest inflammatory and unproven accusations that some new immigrants are eating household pets have only served to increase the rancor of many locals who cannot accept the new arrivals.
Meanwhile, some of the 15,000 or so Haitians who have made the city their home
ABC News anchor Linsey Davis revealed in a post-debate Los Angeles Times puff-piece profile how she, ABC World News Tonight anchor David Muir and ABC producers schemed to ambush President Trump with ‘fact checks’ at Tuesday night’s presidential debate in Philadelphia with Kamala Harris after watching Trump crush and knock Joe Biden out of the race in their June debate. (Photos)
The fact checking at the debate was one-sided, with Trump being interrupted by Muir and Davis several times with ‘fact checks’ while Harris was not ‘fact checked’ once.
ABC News is denying the extraordinary allegations there was collusion between the presidential debate moderators and Vice President Kamala Harris' campaign.
'Absolutely not,' an ABC News spokesperson told the Daily Beast. 'Harris was not given any questions before the debate.'
Former President Donald Trump and his MAGA allies have stoked conspiracy theories that Harris had a leg up in the debate. Most polling showed that Americans believed Harris had the more commanding performance onstage Tuesday night in Philadelphia.
Singer John Legend waded into the boiling migrant crisis unfolding in his hometown of Springfield, Ohio, by telling the town's residents to 'embrace' the 20,000 Haitian migrants whose arrival has sparked a political firestorm.
In a recorded Instagram video from his Beverly Hills mansion, Legend - a staunch Democrat - said: 'So you might imagine there are some challenges with, you know, integrating a new population.
'New language, new culture, new dietary preferences. All kinds of reasons why they might be growing pains'.
Details have emerged of the first batch of stores that Big Lots is closing for good.
The 292 locations, dotted all over the country, are offering as much as 50 percent off bargains - prompting a rush of shoppers looking for deals.
The Columbus, Ohio-based chain on Monday filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy after years of making big losses. In total, it plans to close a third of its 1,392 locations to cuts costs as it woos a new owner. Retail experts say Big Lots main problem is that it markets itself as a place for bargains, but it is often more expensive than the likes of Walmart and Target.
If you judge Kamala Harris by the one big decision she made so far in her campaign — picking Tim Walz as a running mate — she doesn't fare very well. Walz has largely been a mess, bringing with him a stolen valor scandal and all sorts of prevarications about his life.[Snip] But he put his foot in it big time when he started to tell a story that he said he loved about Kamala Harris.(Video) "As a young prostituter, Kamala Harris talked about going into that courtroom for the first time,"[Snip]… he seemed to swallow hard after that and try to move on, but there was no taking it back.
A Harris campaign aide who focuses on climate change once promoted the anti-natalist view that the potential for widespread environmental destruction is a reason not to have children.
Camila Thorndike, the climate engagement director for Vice President Kamala Harris’s 2024 presidential campaign, told the Washington Post in 2022 that fears of climate change have factored into her hesitation to have children.
“It’s coming partly from a place of love for my hypothetical child,” she said.
Anyone who watched the presidential debate hosted by ABC News on Tuesday knows that the moderators were biased and repeatedly fact-checked Trump while letting Kamala Harris's lies go unchallenged. We kind of expected that to happen, as the bias and conflicts of interests of the moderators and the network as a whole were well established. However, there are reports now that an ABC News whistleblower is about to come forward with evidence that Kamala was given sample questions before the debate.
Left-wing porn star Stormy Daniels says she’s afraid that former President Donald Trump will have her tried for treason if he wins the 2024 election.[Snip] Daniels, who told Rolling Stone she’s currently “living in an RV,” still has to pay Trump’s legal fees related to a separate defamation case. In the meantime, she has been on tour doing a stand-up comedy routine and lambasting the former president. She noted to the magazine that she feels she has lost more than she has gained.
