Kamala Harris Bombs in Fox Interview

The three deadliest bombs in world history: Hiroshima; Nagasaki; and The Kamala Harris interview with Brett Baier. By now, I’m sure everyone has seen the indescribable awfulness of Kamala’s Wednesday appearance on Fox News, which was as bad, in its own way, as Joe Biden’s performance in the June 27 debate with Trump. If Democrats […]

What Counts as ‘Misinformation’? (Hint: It Depends on Who Does the Counting)

Right-Wing Influencers Falsely Accuse Kamala Harris Of Using A Teleprompter At Town Hall — Forbes Posts falsely claim Kamala Harris used teleprompter during town hall — AFP Harris Town Hall Moderator Debunks Crazy New Teleprompter Claim — Daily Beast That’s just a small sample of what you’ll find with a Google search for “kamala univision […]

We’re All Shocked — Shocked! — to Discover ‘Men for Kamala’ Are Fake

So after I’d started working on another post about “misinformation,” I saw this story (via Twitchy via Stephen Green at Instapundit) and decided that it was obviously relevant to the topic I was discussing: As many of you know, Jimmy Kimmel’s writer, Jacob Reed, directed an ad for the Kamala Harris campaign titled ‘Men for […]

Democrats ‘Increasingly Worried About a Number of Issues Plaguing’ Kamala

Remember what I told you in mid-September? “Kamala Is Underperforming” was the headline, at a time when the newly-minted Democratic presidential nominee was still riding her post-convention “bounce.” A careful comparison of Harris’s poll numbers to Joe Biden’s numbers in 2020 and Hillary Clinton’s numbers in 2016 showed that she was weaker against Trump than […]

How Badly Did Tim Walz Lose?

My first reaction to Tuesday night’s “debate” (scare-quotes necessary because this televised event in no way resembled an actual debate) was focused mainly on how bad Norah O’Donnell and Margaret Brennan were as “moderators” (scare-quotes necessary, etc.), However much you hate the media, you don’t hate them as much as they deserve to be hated. […]

Debate: J.D. Vance Defeats Tim Walz, Norah O’Donnell and Margaret Brennan

America wanted the answers to two crucial questions: Is there any politician in America less qualified for high public office than Kamala Harris? and Is it possible for debate moderators to be worse than ABC’s David Muir and Linsey Davis? The answer to both questions is a surprising “yes.” Tim Walz is less qualified than […]

The Slow Death of Kamala’s ‘Joy’

Notice something about that picture of Vice President Kamala Harris? She’s wearing sneakers. Is this supposed to be some kind of message? At age 59, she is the candidate of youth, or something? In a campaign short on substance and long on symbolism, we can be certain that having the candidate onstage in a pair […]

The Only Trick in Their Bag

Look, I get it: Biden put Democrats in a bad spot. He could have — and should have — announced in early 2023 that he would not seek a second term, thereby making it possible for Democrats to have a primary to choose their 2024 presidential candidate. Unfortunately for Democrats, while senile dementia diminishes many […]
