Keep It Low: Kamala Harris Is an Authoritarian Marxist
Plus: Biden Bumbles, and the Rumor Mill Turns

David Harsany rebuts claims by the leftwing Marxist media that Kamala Harris is a "moderate" and even a "small-c conservative."

Remember when Harris moderately accused Brett Kavanaugh of gang rape?

This false perception of moderation stems from Harris' time as prosecutor and attorney general. Harris liked to brag about using "a huge stick" as a prosecutor in San Francisco, where she regularly threatened poor parents with jail time in her efforts to craft social policy -- which wasn't her job.

It's true that Harris threw a lot of people in jail to bolster her political fortunes. Some of them likely innocent. And judging from her disposition, she would throw a lot more people into jail, if she could.

When pro-life journalist David Daleiden published videos of Planned Parenthood executives nonchalantly discussing the selling of body parts, Harris had his home raided, seized evidence, and then tried to throw him in prison. She later teamed up with the abortion mill to write legislation that would squash the free speech rights of other pro-lifers.

Like any good authoritarian, Harris enforces whatever laws she sees fit to enforce whenever she sees fit. One of the reasons Harris allegedly opposed the nomination of Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch was that the judge "consistently valued narrow legalisms" -- which is to say, respected the Constitution -- "over real lives."

Harris was never one for legalism. When candidate Biden argued that Harris' promise to issue an executive order unilaterally banning access to certain guns would be unconstitutional, she retorted: "I would just say: Hey, Joe, instead of saying 'No, we can't,' let's say 'yes, we can,'" before cackling at the very notion that presidents couldn't do whatever they wanted.

As a national candidate, Harris said she believed immigration laws should be treated as civil, rather than criminal, offenses. As a candidate, Harris supported abolishing private health insurance -- "Let's eliminate all of that. Let's move on," she told CNN. In addition to nationalizing health care and education, Harris wants the government to control the manufacturing sector, the auto industry, food ... and any industry that emits carbon.

Harris was in favor of getting rid of the filibuster to overturn state voting laws, nationalizing abortion on demand until birth, and passing the Green New Deal -- an authoritarian takeover of the economy written by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, which would ban all fossil fuels, force Americans to retrofit every building in the country, eliminate air travel and meat, and create government-guaranteed jobs, among many other authoritarian measures.

Abigail Shrier: Kamala is a threat.

By avoiding a primary, Harris also avoided revealing herself as a leftist.

There is every reason to believe Vice President Harris is actually quite radical and would govern that way. Since the start of her failed 2020 presidential campaign, she has adopted virtually every tenet of progressive maximalism--yes, wokeness--from gender ideology (pronouns-in-her-bio) to seriously discussing defunding the police in a 2020 radio interview.

She has called to "critically reexamine ICE and its role" and concluded "we need to probably think about starting from scratch," meaning scrapping it altogether. She believes that the term radical Islamic terrorism ought to be abolished--not the terrorism, mind you, just the phrase. In 2020, she put out a video endorsing "equity" and insisted "equitable treatment means we all end up at the same place." Actually, that's what equitable treatment means to the hard left.

As U.S. senator, Harris was one of the earliest sponsors of AOC's "Green New Deal," a dismantling of the U.S. economy under the flag of climate fundamentalism. She could scarcely be bothered to visit our southern border and had no interest in securing it, even when fixing the immigration crisis was made her unique responsibility as vice president.

In 2019, she expressed remarkable hostility to American energy. On CNN, she said there was "no question" she would ban fracking and offshore drilling. She fully supported Biden's disastrous, inhumane policy of encouraging not only hormones but also gender surgeries for vulnerable minors and of flinging open the doors of women's jail cells to biologically male offenders.

When Joe Biden was running for election in 2020 and referred to the "Latino community," she corrected him on X: "the Latinx community," she wrote, preferring the agender, woke neologism unpopular with the Latino community.

In June of 2020, Harris urged her supporters to post bail for BLM rioters who had ransacked our cities, even tweeting a payment link to the Minnesota Freedom Fund just four days after rioters burned a Minneapolis police precinct to the ground. "They're not going to stop and everyone beware, because they're not going to stop," she said on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert, referring to the BLM protesters. "They're not going to let up, and they should not."

Each of these positions is out of step with the moderates in her party and the vast majority of the American people; had they come out in a primary, they would have been quite damaging. For good reason, Harris was ranked the "most liberal" member of the senate by the government transparency organization GovTrack, which recently memory-holed the webpage bearing the accolade.

Now, as a candidate in the 2024 general election, she claims she never wanted to ban fracking. Expect her to reverse course on other far-left positions in the coming weeks. Had she been forced to restate these positions in a recent primary, the current disavowals would seem phony to the point of ridiculous.

Instead, having avoided a primary, Harris can sell herself as a moderate to a public that has no time to unpack whether she was or wasn't the official "border czar." She smiles and laughs a lot. She looks like the kind of person you'd want to unwind with over a glass of pinot grigio. She can present herself as a centrist and count on the media to spearhead the cover-up.

Salena Zito: The media has stopped massaging the truth on behalf of Kamala and moved into straight-up lies.

Facts are facts, even if they make new presidential candidate Kamala Harris look bad. This fact is undeniable, no matter how much dishonest media try to obfuscate it: President Joe Biden appointed the vice president to stem the tide of migrants to the U.S. southern border. Period. No wiggle room.

And the almost inarguable judgment is that she failed at the job. Miserably. The tide didn't recede; it rose and crashed in huge waves upon our (figurative) shores.

It was way back on March 24, 2021. Biden, in a White House meeting that included Harris, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra, announced he was tapping Harris to lead the administration's response to the growing number of migrants arriving at the U.S. border. Her job, he said, was "stemming the migration to our southern border." He also said she "agreed to lead our diplomatic effort and work with nations (to our South) to accept re- -- the returnees, and enhance migration enforcement at their borders -- at their borders."

Biden told reporters before the meeting that he wanted Harris to be the point person on the border, to speak decisively for the administration. And in a call to reporters after the announcement, a senior official told reporters unequivocally that Harris' focus would be on the historic surge of illegal border crossings.

Within hours stories emerged in major news organizations with clarity that Biden was tasking her with leading efforts to stem migration at the border, with dozens of elite news organizations referring to her as the "border czar." This is irrefutable history. It's all documented.

Nonetheless, one hour after Biden endorsed Harris on July 21, news organizations and Democrats were stridently saying it was never the case that Harris was in charge of the border, that they never said she was the border czar and that the claim was all a right-wing conspiracy.

Axios, a popular Washington insider online news organization, not only scrubbed part of its story from 2021 reporting Harris was "appointed by Biden as border czar," but also said in an editor's note that it had "incorrectly" labeled Harris a border czar. At least it admitted it originally called her that.

It was one of the most remarkably dishonest moments in American journalism, a once revered industry that in recent years has lost the trust of the people to report the news in a full, fair and accurate way. And it wasn't just Axios. The gaslighting of readers across multiple news organizations has been equally repulsive -- and it may just be the final straw in that relationship between readers and news organizations.

The New York Times admonished readers, saying, "Ms. Harris was not, in fact, appointed border czar, nor was she tasked with addressing the broader problems plaguing the border itself."

That is not what Biden said. That is not what the press wrote and said.

Simply put, they were either lying then or they are lying now.

For years the national press has had what they referred to as "disinformation beats" and used them to rush to say that social media platforms should not feature certain news stories or news outlets, almost all of them center-right or conservative, on their sites.

And now they are engaged in disinformation that discredits their own reporting. They need to call themselves out for disinformation. Either they're lying now or they were lying then.

Ben Shapiro mocks Salad-Tosser Kamala's latest word salad.

Twitter rumors claim that Salad-Tosser Kamala has picked Pennsylvania Governor -- and Israel supporter -- Josh Shapiro as her running mate.

A Democrat staffer in Philly accidentally posted a video revealing that Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro is Kamala's running mate

It was supposed to come out on Monday, but this is better because now I can spend the weekend exposing Shapiro

Ian Miles Cheong @stillgray

LEAK: Philadelphia Mayor Cherelle Parker accidentally published this video ahead of schedule. She leaked Kamala Harris' pick for Vice President as Josh Shapiro.

I don't know about that.

Incredibly, Kamala Harris is claiming she was a huge success on the border. (Which she never even visited! And she never once met the head of the Border Patrol!)

Trump fired back:

Bonus: Biden bumbles.

I can't confirm this, but...
