Kamala Harris

Revenge of Poontronage

Featured image The Kamala conundrum comes down to this: She was picked because she was Black and female, a combo tantamount to job security. Now that she has become a burden to the Democratic ticket, Biden can’t fire her. He can’t risk alienating his base. Full stop. That was Washington Post columnist Kathleen Parker, in a March 15 piece headlined “For the Country’s Sake, Vice President Harris Should Step Aside,” a move »

Sticking points

Featured image Reading about the ceasefire negotiations with which the Biden administration hopes to engineer a Hamas victory requires a certain kind of insensitivity to savagery. Hamas seeks to trade kidnapped Israelis for terrorists who can help Hamas finish the task it undertook on October 7. The Hamas terrorists are murderers and genocidaires. The Israelis are, well, you know, Jewish. Hamas seeks ten terrorists in exchange for every kidnapped Israeli and Israel »

Are Democrats Really This Dumb?

Featured image Taking a sabbatical from daily blogging is a lot like dieting: It’s hard to keep it up and resist temptation. Especially when a fresh glazed donut or delicious, creamy chocolate cake rolls by your nose. In this case the irresistible treat of a news story concerns the social media blitz that “first gentleman” (the provisional label for Doug Emhoff, aka, Mr. Kamala Harris) spooled out on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram »

Vice Presidential Reflections on Terrorism

Featured image Ivy League college presidents and congressional Democrats aren’t the only ones having difficulty escaping a false moral equivalence between anti-Semitism and supposed “Islamophobia.” It’s a longstanding problem. Let’s revisit: As Americans, we are unified in our commitment to protect our country from terrorist attacks, and we must seek justice for those who lost their lives in the recent attacks in Paris and San Bernardino. That was California attorney general Kamala »

The worst of Peggy Noonan

Featured image Peggy Noonan’s weekly Wall Street Journal column dated November 2 dispensed advice for Israel in its current fight for survival. Noonan advised Israel not to fight. I criticized the column for its stupidity yesterday. I can’t say it’s the most stupid column of the past 25 years, but it must be tied with others for that distinction. While patently stupid, the column reeks of Noonan’s precious self-regard. She relishes every »

The Search for Kamala Continues

Featured image In what has become the greatest “Where’s Waldo?” reboot of all time, the search for missing person Kamala Harris continues. Now the The Atlantic is on the case, with a feature just out entitled “The Kamala Harris Problem.” And what a problem she is: Ease and confidence have not been the prevailing themes of Harris’s vice presidency. Her first year on the job was defined by rhetorical blunders, staff turnover, political »

Still Can’t Find Kamala

Featured image The New York Times is out with a long feature yesterday entitled “In Search of Kamala Harris.” You’d think after two and a half years in office the sleuths at the Times news desk would have been able to find her by now, but apparently she is so stealthy that they have failed to do so. The most telling sentence in the long piece is this: “White House senior advisers »

Kamala’s Latest Whopper

Featured image In an interview with a Pennsylvania news station, Kamala Harris explained that “climate anxiety” is deterring “young leaders” from buying homes, as well as having children: As the Free Beacon points out, what is preventing young people from buying homes is skyrocketing interest rates, which are entirely the fault of the federal government, primarily the Biden administration. It’s just one more consequence of Bidenflation. But I would add this: if »

Poll: Nearly Half of Americans Under 30 Support Sending US Troops to Defend Ukraine

Featured image A CBS News/YouGov poll found that 48% of adults under the age of 30 support sending U.S. troops to defend Ukraine. I’m rather struck by such a high number given that the military is failing to reach recruitment goals among this very demographic. Perhaps they feel it’s a good idea as long as it isn’t them being sent to the front lines. The numbers drop off sharply among older age »

Kamala Harris Is Ready for the Presidency

Featured image After seeing Vice President Kamala Harris’ inappropriate laughter during a March 2022 joint press conference with Polish President Andrzej Duda in Warsaw, a former spokeswoman for Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy wrote in a Twitter post, “It would be a tragedy if this woman won the presidency.” Truer words have rarely been spoken. Iuliia Mendel, who represented Zelenskyy for two years, quickly deleted the tweet amid a left-wing backlash, but a screenshot »

Today in Kamala Komedy

Featured image The New York Times is apparently trying to pass off satire as “news” with its latest feature about the awesome Veep Kamala Harris. The story is “Kamala Harris Takes On a Forceful New Role in 2024 Campaign.” The fake news begins with the subhed: “The vice president is trying to reclaim the momentum that propelled her to Joseph R. Biden Jr.’s side as a candidate and into the White House »

The Awesomeness of Kamala Harris

Featured image I hadn’t realized Politico was trying to compete with the Babylon Bee for satire: Why Kamala Harris Is A Better VP Than You Think When Joe Biden tapped Kamala Harris to be his running mate in 2020, it was perhaps the most easily predicted vice presidential choice in recent memory. . . For her part, Harris brought a number of traits to the ticket other than her race and gender »

Kamala, On a Roll

Featured image First, Kamala Harris committed an epic “Kinsley Gaffe” (that is, where someone in Washington accidentally tells the truth) with this amazing remark a couple days ago: KAMALA HARRIS: “When we invest in clean energy and electric vehicles and reduce population, more of our children can breath clean air and drink clean water.” pic.twitter.com/MbMiDx9Xoc — RNC Research (@RNCResearch) July 14, 2023 Pretty sure she just blurted out what lefty environmentalists really »

Veep thoughts with Kamala Harris

Featured image With President Biden caught up on his sleep during the NATO leadres dinner in Lithuania, Vice President Harris was holding down the fort in Washington. Yesterday she presided over a roundtable discussion on the Americans with Disabilities Act in the Executive Office Building’s Indian Treaty Room. The White House has posted the transcript of her remarks here. Harris demonstrated her way with words in classic style (video below): “This issue »

Cocaine, runnin’ all ’round WH brain

Featured image MSNBC has an update on the location of the cocaine baggie found in the White House over this past weekend. “Multiple officials” are now claiming the cocaine was found near the West Executive entrance “in a much more secure place…near the Situation Room” and next to “where, for example, the vice president’s vehicle is parked.” That is apparently supposed to be a clue and it would explain a lot. However »

Is Kamala Harris the ‘dumbest person’ ever to be elected Vice President in history?

Featured image She did it again. Nearly every time Vice President Kamala Harris speaks to the public, the occasion ends with a humiliating and viral sound bite. And this time was no exception. In her first public appearance since President Biden’s re-election announcement, Harris delivered remarks at an abortion rights rally at her alma mater, Howard University, in Washington D.C. on Tuesday. Describing the significance of the moment, Harris told the crowd: »

Veep thoughts with Kamala Harris

Featured image Vice President Kamala Harris had warm words for Al Sharpton at his New York jamboree this past Friday. The White House has posted the transcript of Harris’s remarks here. Harris had this to say right at the top of her speech (warning: reading may induce nausea): Rev, I love you. (Laughter.) And I thank you on behalf of all of us — everyone — for all that you do and »
