CAUGHT REDHANDED: Axios Writer’s Claim That Kamala Harris was Never Named Border Czar Backfires Spectacularly After X Users Discover What She Wrote Three Years Ago

=============================================================================

The corporate media’s whitewashing of Kamala Harris’s dangerous record is kicking into overdrive as they try to desperately keep President Trump from winning a second term. Conservative social media users caught one outlet’s “reporter” in the act of doing precisely this and did not mince words.

Axios published an article on Wednesday titled “Harris border confusion haunts her new campaign.” The outlet notes that Joe Biden asked Harris to help him with the immigration crisis, which has arguably become her most significant vulnerability as her presidential campaign gets underway.

But Axios then runs cover for Harris and states that Biden never named her border czar.

This would certainly come as a surprise to millions of Americans if true.

***************************************************

But as Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) notes, the same reporter, Stef W. Knight, who authored today’s article, wrote a piece titled “Biden Puts Harris in Charge of Border Crisis” just over three years ago.

===========================================================

Marjorie Taylor Greene 🇺🇸 @mtgreenee · Follow The same “journalist,” @StefWKight, also wrote an article with this headline in March of 2021.

Why does the media constantly lie and think you’ll believe them?

===========================================================

Not only that, Free Beacon writer Peter J. Haason points out that Knight described Harris as the BORDER CZAR in her March 2021 article, completely blowing up her lie.

How dare conservatives rely on Axios and the rest of the corporate media’s reporting to tag Harris accurately?

Unsurprisingly, other X users had harsh words for Knight for spreading fake news.

TWEETS AT LINK......................

The corporate media’s lies to paint Harris as the Democrats’ chosen one are only beginning, and this alone makes her a dangerous foe. To prevail in November, conservatives must counter these prevarications at every turn, and the Trump campaign must spare no expense in exposing Americans to Harris’s true nature.

It was only 3 years ago. We all remember her assignment as border czar, then her refusal to visit the border. My thought at the time was that she knew it was was a $#!+ show and she didn’t want to be dragged down by the Biden regime’s disastrous immigration policies. It was really a significant act of insubordination. Biden said go to the border and Harris said FU, you’re not sticking me with that tar baby.

Then she started making appearances as “Chair of the National Space Counsel”, trying to convince people she was brilliant. That certainly didn’t last, as she just embarrassed herself in front of actual scientists and astronauts. Border Czar was the one and only job of significant importance that Biden assigned her, and she failed spectacularly. The media will try to cover for her, but they have to disavow their own reporting to do so.

And right now ALL reporters are searching their twitter feeds for ANYTHING that can be used against Harris, and removing it. “I never said that! I don’t know what you’re talking about!”

I didn't include Coulter's third sentence from the paragraph that contained that quote. It was:

It doesn’t matter that it’s false and that she knows it’s false.

There is now an article that others can refer to that says she wasn’t the border czar.

So they will just repeat that with a reference ad nauseum.

Get used to it. As Biden approached vegetable status all they did was ramp on the lying. “He’s sharper than ever, he runs circles around his staff” etc. Just keep getting Trump in front of as many people as possible because as I’ve noted before.

Trump Supporters are people who have heard from Trump.
Trump Haters are people who have heard ABOUT Trump.

I like how the GOP House members got Wray to talk about the FBI’s concern regarding the open southern border.

Those questions and Wray’s answers were done purposely to discredit BORDER CZAR KAMALA HARRIS.

Because they know full well that millions of useful idiots WANT to believe them.

As I've written before for people who do not know the origins of Axios and Politico:

Politico was founded in 2007 by two Washington Post employees:

Together with former banker and then-CEO of Albritton Communications Robert Albritton (who owned several ABC-affiliated television stations in Washington, D.C.), they founded Politico as a internet-based immediate news outlet, with Harris as the Editor-in-Chief and VendeHei as the Executive Editor. Politico initially positioned itself as a neutral news source but quickly reverted to its Washington Post roots by hiring Michael Kinsley and Joe Scarborough as opinion writers. They eventually hired Susan Glasser from The New Yorker to be their opinion editor.

At some point Politico hired Mike Allen, who was a journalist for The New York Times and Time Magazine. Allen was hired to write a daily email newsletter for Politico.

In 2016, VandenHei and Allen left Politico to start Axios. Axios was established to be a digital short-form news source that focused on industry-specific stories. I think of it as a USA Today for Politico.

So, you can see that Politico is simply a front for the writers of The Washington Post, The New York Times, New Yorker, Time, MSNBC, Los Angeles Times, Slate, etc. Axios publishes a story or poll, then Politico writes a full piece on it, then the NYT and WaPo report that Politico and Axios said so and such... and then the rest of the LAAP-dog media report the NYT story. That's how the left gets its message into the mainstream subconscious.

This is the Democrat implementation of what the Clinton White House described as the "Communication Stream of Conspiracy Commerce" in a secret 1995 memo to describe the rise of the alternative right-wing media, or what Hillary Clinton called it, "the vast right-wing conspiracy." The full memo is here.

It's obvious that the plan to rehabilitate Harris is beginning with these stories being planted in Axios.

It won’t go away. Too many people posting on the internet for that to happen. The bottom line, they botched the assassination attempt, now they’re trying desperately to create a new narrative. The entire world saw what happened in Butler, that will remain engraved forever within people. No amount of revisionist history can overcome the truth.

Kamela admits she doesn’t understand!

https://youtu.be/jzqDUhaOb10?si=rgVVIv3PDNs7NX8Z

Pressing the topic, Holt asked if Harris had any plans to visit the border, and she said “at some point, you know, we are going to the border. We’ve been to the border. So this whole thing about the border, we’ve been to the border. We’ve been to the border.”

“You haven’t been to the border,” Holt said.

“And I haven’t been to Europe,” Harris said. “And I mean, I don’t understand the point that you’re making. I’m not discounting the importance of the border.”

Harris followed by saying: … And I say Don't like Jamaica (Oh no!) I love her (Eh!) Don't like Jamaica (Oh no!) I love her (Oh yeah!)
