Kamala Promises To Deliver Platform ‘Next Week’ Critics were quick to point out the fact that Harris already went public with a presidential policy platform in the run-up to the 2020 presidential election. Harris steals Trump's 'no tax on tips' platform “Now is a good time to remind everyone that #CopyCatKamala’s administration rolled out a new enforcement program JUST LAST YEAR to collect more taxes on tips,” Trump's campaign posted on X. Harris campaign admits Walz ‘misspoke’ about past military career as ‘stolen valor’ criticism grows Walz had been facing pressure to clarify his military record after a 2018 video surfaced of him touting his career in the National Guard as a reason for increased gun control. Regime-Approved ‘Fact-Checkers’ Rush To Downplay Tim Walz’s Stolen Valor Controversy The Washington Post’s Glenn Kessler aims to convince readers his "fact-checks" are valid, despite their representation as attempts to run interference for Walz. Democratic senator: Walz didn't abandon his troops, he had an 'obligation' to run for office Sen. Jack Reed went on to compare Walz to John Kerry. Tim Walz repeatedly hosted Muslim cleric who celebrated Oct. 7 Walz, on at least five occasions as governor of Minnesota, hosted a Muslim cleric who celebrated Hamas‘ Oct. 7 attack last year on Israel and promoted a film popular among neo-Nazis that glorifies Adolf Hitler, the Washington Examiner found. Politico: Kamala Harris united Democrats. Her campaign still has fractures. Longtime Harris loyalists are chafing at the continuing presence of some Biden aides known for disparaging the vice president. WaPo Opinion: Harris could run circles around Trump on policy Democrats are strong on abortion. And Trump gave them an opportunity on immigration. Atop ABC, a Personal Connection to Kamala Harris The candidate is a longtime friend of Dana Walden, a senior Disney executive whose portfolio includes ABC News, the host of the next debate. ABC says she does not weigh in on editorial decisions. WaPo: Trump will gladly debate under the following conditions In a blatant display of selective memory, WaPo tries to ridicule Trump’s debate terms while conveniently forgetting how Biden loaded his own debates with conditions designed to trip up Trump, something people forget since the debate was so bad that it ended Biden's career. |
New Polls Show Trump Losing To Harris In Key Swing States Trump trails Harris in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Michigan according to a set of the New York Times/Siena College polls released Saturday. However, Democratic operative David Axelrod said some of the internal numbers of the poll look "improbable," and it's likely a tied race. RNC has 157,000 volunteers set to watch 2024 results Republican National Committee cochairman Michael Whatley stressed the need for his party to ensure there is no fraud in the 2024 election, revealing it has surpassed one of its goals in such an effort. Florida Republicans tout 1 million voter edge over Dems after years of stunning growth When DeSantis took office, there were over 250,000 more registered Democrats than Republicans in the state. Deace: Don’t let America go the way of California and Minnesota This is a terminal election from a worldview perspective. The contrast between the candidates has never been starker. Align: Liberals aren't the cool ones anymore Despite the fact that rappers have long described themselves as the “black Donald Trump,” the media has continued to insist that Trump is racist. The Intercept: Racism Is Why Trump Is So Popular Trump’s popularity with his base isn’t the result of economic anxiety, as many claimed in 2016. It’s about race and demographics. The Atlantic: A Field Guide to the Flags of the Far Right From Betsy Ross to Trump-Rambo. David French: To Save Conservatism from Itself, I Am Voting for Harris The NY Times token "conservative" David French explains why he's going to vote for Harris. Democratic voters can evict another anti-Semite by defeating Ilhan Omar Don Samuels came within a mere 2 percentage points of defeating Omar in the 2022 primary, and now he is back for another try.

Return: Does Alexa want you to vote for Kamala Harris? I surveyed a dozen Echo-owning friends and family who hold a variety of political orientations, and all of them confirmed that news stories favoring Kamala and disparaging Trump had exploded since Harris was appointed by the Democrats to be the presidential nominee.
