Domenech: Kamala Harris embraces a Liz-Cheney-sized mistake

By Ben Domenech | Commentary, The Spectator Welcome to Thunderdome. Liz Cheney is campaigning with Kamala Harris today in Wisconsin at Ripon, known as the birthplace of the Republican Party at the Little White Schoolhouse. It was there in 1854 at a church meeting that Whig and Free Soil Party members gathered to form a “great irresistible Northern party, organized on the single issue of the non-extension of slavery.” This was even then pretty aggressive language for the Episcopalian who called the meeting, but not for Horace Greeley, who publicized it to the nation. Whatever Liz Cheney says today about how important it is to elect Kamala Harris will no doubt equal the historical significance of that moment, at least according to Rachel Maddow. But I’m here to tell you that thi...

Firefighters union declines to endorse Kamala Harris for president after being first to back Biden in 2020

By  Hannah Nightingale | The Post Millennial On Thursday, the International Association of Fire Fighters announced that it would not be endorsing any candidate in the 2024 presidential election. This comes after the union’s executive board had backed Joe Biden’s White House bid in 2020. IAFF President Edward Kelly said that the union’s executive board voted by a margin of just 1.2 percent not to endorse Democratic candidate Kamala Harris or GOP candidate Donald Trump. "Over the past year, the IAFF took unprecedented steps to hear our members’ views on the candidates and the policy issues that matter most to them," Kelly said. "As we have over our 106-year history, the IAFF will continue its work to improve the lives of firefighters and their families. The IAFF Execut...

Obama to campaign for Harris in Pennsylvania, other key states

By Michael Dorgan , Paul Steinhauser  | Fox News Former President Obama is preparing to hit the campaign trail next week for Vice President Harris, focusing on key battleground states in the lead up to Election Day, according to a senior campaign official with anonymity to discuss the matter. Obama, who served back-to-back terms as president from 2009 through 2017, will kick off his drive in the Pittsburgh area of Pennsylvania on Thursday, a state which remains one of the tightest contests in the nation and which could tip the scales for either candidate.  A Fox News survey of Pennsylvania voters last week found Harris narrowly ahead of Trump by 2 points (50-48%) among registered voters, while the race is tied at 49% each among likely voters. President Bid...

Kamala Harris raised money in California as Hurricane Helene wreaked havoc 

By Bradley Devlin  | Daily Signal While millions of Americans come face-to-face with the reality that they no longer have a place to call “home,” Vice President Kamala Harris was campaigning around the country.  Hurricane Helene, a massive Category 4 hurricane, made landfall Thursday in Florida and plowed through Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Tennessee, and Kentucky. Other states, including Virginia, also have been affected.  Helene claimed the lives of over 175 people and hundreds remained missing after the storm, authorities said.  READ THE FULL STORY AT THE DAILY SIGNAL

Griswold: If Kamala has such great plans, why hasn’t she implemented them?

By Kylee Griswold | Commentary, The Federalist Kamala Harris has been VP for three and a half years, and her policies have only exacerbated Americans’ biggest problems. Minnesota Democrat Gov. Tim Walz spent an awful lot of time during Tuesday’s vice presidential debate talking about what he and Kamala Harris would do on “day one” and beyond if Americans (and Big Tech oligarchs) elect them this November. The problem? As Sen. J.D Vance, R-Ohio, pointed out, Kamala Harris’ “day one” was nearly 1,400 days ago. If Harris wants to help struggling Americans, why hasn’t she? She does hold the second-highest office in the land, after all. READ THE FULL STORY AT THE FEDERALIST Editor’s note: Opinions expressed in commentary pieces are those of the author and do not nece...

Knudsen: Kamala Harris blasted for ‘pitiful’ Hurricane Helene response

By Hannah Knudsen, Commentary | Breitbart Vice President Kamala Harris is facing intense scrutiny — not from the establishment media, but from Americans on social media — for her lackluster response to the damage inflicted on several states due to Hurricane Helene. Hurricane Helene made landfall as a strong Category 4 storm late Thursday in Florida’s Big Bend region. While Florida has been in recovery under the direction of Florid Gov. Ron DeSantis — who is no stranger to unleashing a strong hurricane response, swiftly restoring power, inspecting bridges, and clearing roadways in the Sunshine State — many inland and beyond were caught off guard by the mass devastation in inland areas, such as Asheville, North Carolina. According to the Associated Press, at least 30 were&nbs...

Donald Trump: Kamala Harris would ‘decimate’ social security and medicare

By Matthew Boyle | Breitbart Former President Donald Trump told Breitbart News exclusively that Vice President Kamala Harris would “decimate” Social Security and Medicare if she won the election, and the only way to protect those programs is to vote for him. Asked during a nearly hour-long interview last weekend about Democrats privately sounding the alarm about Harris’s silence on Social Security and Medicare as Politico reported earlier in September, Trump sounded off, saying she avoids talking about the programs because people know her policies would destroy them. “So she doesn’t talk at all about Social Security or Medicare because everyone knows she’s going to decimate them,” Trump told Breitbart News. “They’re going to be destroyed. There’s no way to fix it once she does tha...

Kamala Harris’ advantage with Latinos slips to lowest for Dems in four election cycles

By Ryan King | New York Post Democrats’ advantage with Latino voters has dwindled to the lowest levels seen in four presidential election cycles under Vice President Kamala Harris, a new poll has found. Harris maintains a 14-point lead over President Donald Trump with the critical voting bloc — 54% to 40% — with 6% of Latino voters undecided, according to a new NBC News/Telemundo/CNBC national poll, which sampled registered voters of Latino descent. The VP’s modest showing is a far cry from Democrats’ performance with Latino voters in recent elections. READ THE FULL STORY AT THE NEW YORK POST

Kamala’s new plan for the economy is basically take two on Bidenomics

By Nick Pope | Daily Caller Vice President Kamala Harris released an 82-page document explaining her vision for the economy on Wednesday, but the plan shares much in common with President Joe Biden’s economic agenda. The plan, titled “A New Way Forward For The Middle Class,” proposes to build upon Biden initiatives like student loan debt cancellation, industrial policy, huge subsidies for green energy and going after corporations for alleged price gouging. Prior to quitting the presidential race under immense political pressure, voters were largely dissatisfied with Biden’s economy, which had come to be defined by 40-year high inflation. “Harris isn’t going to stray very far from current Biden policies,” Ryan Young, a senior economist for the Competitive Enterprise Institute, told...

Swearer: On the 2nd Amendment, Harris shoots herself in foot—again

By Amy Swearer  | Commentary, Daily Signal It’s hard to reconcile Vice President Kamala Harris’ friendly overtures to gun owners with the footage that recently emerged of a 2007 press conference in which the then-district attorney of San Francisco said cops could conduct random home inspections to enforce compliance with the city’s new “safe storage” laws. Yes, really. She told reporters: We’re going to require responsible behaviors among everybody in the community, and just because you legally possess a gun in the sanctity of your locked home doesn’t mean that we’re not going to walk into that home and check to see if you’re being responsible and safe in the way you conduct your affairs.
