Kamala Harris
February 9, 2026 — Scott Johnson
Democrats thought that Kamala Harris was a fit successor to President Biden and in a sense she was. She was on Biden’s wavelength. For a ludicrous candidate she came uncomfotably close to the highest office in the land. The same applies to her term as vice president to someone with half a mind to be president. In the video clip below the former vice president addresses the alleged abomination of

That was just one of the topics I covered in a wide-ranging conversation with Rita Panahi last night. We talked about Susie Wiles’ inexplicable interviews with Vanity Fair, Ilhan Omar’s feud with President Trump, the showdown with Venezuela, Kamala Harris’s political future, and more: Alert readers will notice that my background is not the usual one. I am traveling and did the show from my hotel room.

Dick Cheney’s funeral was yesterday, in Washington. Cheney was a fine man and an excellent public servant. His politics were moderate, but while he was vice president, and for years afterward, he was denounced by liberals as a fascist and commonly referred to as “Darth Vader.” Of course, he served under BushHitler, so that was only natural. His funeral told a different story. It was attended, by invitation, by Kamala

I was on the U.S. Report on Sky News Australia yesterday, with Caroline Marcus sitting in for James Morrow. I thought it was a particularly good conversation. We covered the Democrats’ shutdown and its aftermath, and I advanced the Bill Glahn hypothesis. We covered energy, and Gavin Newsom’s promoting the old-time religion in Brazil. And we talked about Kamala Harris’s three-dimensional chess, and President Trump’s endorsement of 50-year mortgages. I

In today’s Washington Free Beacon newsletter, my daughter Eliana links to the video below with the tag “I’ll have what she’s smoking.” I think “I’ll have what she’s drinking” may be slightly more accurate. In any case, the former vice president actually says she was “aware” of Donald Trump’s “strategy” but “wasn’t about to fall prey, or fall into those traps.” No, with her comic accent, she declares that she

Kamala Harris, who I take it is out of the country, gave an interview to the BBC that generated headlines in the U.K.: “Kamala Harris hints at 2028 run for president: ‘I am not done.’” That will warm the hearts of Republicans everywhere! Kamala Harris has said she may run for the White House again after her comprehensive defeat to President Trump last year. The Democratic former vice-president said she

As they say, no Jews, no news. How else to explain the lack of interest in the rampage of murder committed by Hamas as soon as it could turn its attention elsewhere than the IDF? That’s the question that is raised by Adam Kredo’s Free Beacon story “Hamas Storms Through Gaza, Executing Opposition Groups in Attempt to Cling to Power.” Kamala Harris’s attention is also turned elsewhere. Anyone who paid

On Thursday evening I was on Sky News’ U.S. Report, with Caroline Marcus sitting in for James Morrow. We talked about the Jay Jones scandal and the Democrats’ response, the administration’s investigation into Antifa, Mark Carney and President Trump, and Kamala Harris’s weird claim that the 2024 presidential election was the closest of the 21st Century. It is a pretty entertaining 8:46:

Kamala Harris, I suppose in order to promote her book, has repeatedly claimed that the 2024 presidential election was the closest of the 21st century. For example: She keeps repeating this verifiable lie. Why? pic.twitter.com/KiVckl9Yvd — Rita Panahi (@RitaPanahi) October 7, 2025 Harris’s assertion is, as Rita Panahi says, false. There have been seven presidential elections in the 21st century. Trump defeated Harris last year by 312-226. That is the

On Outsiders last night, we talked about President Trump sending the military to Portland, the firing of FBI employees who engaged in George Floyd protests, Kamala Harris’s return to the public eye, and the TikTok deal. I think this video covers my whole appearance, except for a brief exchange at the beginning about President Trump’s United Nations speech:

In her forthcoming 2024 campaign memoir 107 Days, Kamala Harris reveals that Minnesota Governor Tim Walz was not her first choice as running mate. No, Walz was her second choice. Her alleged first choice was Pete Buttigieg. Is it wrong to laugh? I can’t stop laughing. Walz was the next best! So Victor Nava reports in today’s New York Post. The cover of Kamala Harris’s memoir does not indicate a

…when Kamala Harris made one of a number of catastrophically bad decisions: she selected Tim Walz as her running mate. As I wrote here at the time, it wasn’t hard to figure out how the dark horse Walz wound up with the nomination. Harris initially announced a list of five potential candidates. At that time, the little-known Walz was a throw-in, probably because he was the chairman of the Democratic

The Washington Free Beacon has posted a video compilation of Democrats celebrating Kamala Harris’s mythical summer job at McDonald’s, which the Free Beacon exposed as a fabrication in short order. I have posted the video at the bottom. The accompanying story is flagged in today’s Free Beacon newsletter with this note: When Democrats entered their party’s national convention last summer, the joy was palpable. Unburdened by Joe Biden’s elderly ramblings,

In her Boston Globe column covering the Washington Free Beacon’s greatest hits — I wrote about it in “No equal on the left” earlier this week — Jill Abramson focused on the Beacon’s reporting on the higher education beat. She omitted stories with significant political impact. One such story was the Free Beacon’s challenge to Kamala Harris’s fantasia about her summer employment at McDonald’s. Three Free Beacon reporters exposed Harris’s

It turns out that Hamas did have a favorite in the 2024 presidential race, and it wasn’t Donald Trump. Which means, I guess, that they are evil but they may not be stupid: Former Israeli hostage says the terrorists were “very scared” of Trump. “More food, treated me better, stopped cursing me, stopped spitting on me.” pic.twitter.com/tgGk9Wqm5E — Open Source Intel (@Osint613) May 28, 2025 We have seen this phenomenon

This is not the way I remember the campaign, but Joe Biden must be thinking he would have defeated Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential election. Appearing on The View, Biden said he “wasn’t surprised,” by Kamala Harris’s defeat by Trump. “They went the route of, uh, the sexist route, all, the whole route. I mean, ‘this is a woman, she’s this, she’s that,’ uh, I mean, it really, I’ve

Last night Kamala Harris was given the chairman’s award at the annual NAACP Image Awards Ceremony, and she showed in her lugubrious prepared and rehearsed speech that she is not unburdened with her cringe past. Here’s a sample from the climax: Those who forged the NAACP those who carried its Legacy forward had no Illusions about the forces they were up against no Illusions about how stony the road would
