Kamala Harris made a campaign stop on Saturday at a spice shop known to openly discriminate against Republicans while calling for an end to political “division.”
The spice shop, Penzeys Spices in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, welcomed the Democrat nominee to browse the store and meet some supporters.
While facing a gaggle of reporters, Harris claimed, “It’s time to turn the page on the divisiveness. It’s time to bring our country together, chart a new way forward.”
“A lot of what I think is happening, and I was just talking with some folks here in Pittsburgh about it, is that people are exhausted about the division and the attempts to kind of divide us as Americans,” said Harris.
“And, them stepping up to make this public statement, I think is, courageous.”
“But also for people like the folks I was just talking with, it really reinforces for them that we love our country, and we have more in common than what separates us,” asserted Harris in the spice shop.
Penzeys Spices has an entire “About Republicans” page on their website with a staggering 842-word essay bashing the political party.
For contrast, the “About Us” page on the Penzeys website features only 461 words, including “We are trying to make the world a better place.”
Part of the “About Republicans” page on their site, penned by CEO Bill Penzey, informs Republicans they can shop elsewhere: “Going forward we would still be glad to have you as customers, but we’re done pretending the Republican Party’s embrace of cruelty, racism, Covid lies, climate change denial, and threats to democracy are anything other than the risks they legitimately are.”
“If you need us to pretend you are not creating the hurt you are creating in order for you to continue to be our customer...

If you grafted in Manchurian Candidate Barack Hussein Obama’s face, I don’t think Kamala would look all that different at this point.
Yikes at that photo.
Middlin’, imho. Most lack punch.
I’m pretty sure I saw this whole thing was fake. The people in the shop worked for the DNC.
She’s not visiting any gun stores?
But for Harris to imply Penzey's is a company that is trying to heal America's divisiveness is plain wrong.
Harris is probably struggling to get close to ANY national brands.
Trump owns the best brand out there: Elon Musk.
And Robert Kennedy Jr. is a tremendous boost, too. More to come!
There goes Kamala, going to important venues to discuss real policy with authentic Americans, who are trying to bring unity and peace to our beleaguered nation.
I hope they go bankrupt.
I should have guessed Penzeys. I used to order from them until their political positions emerged and they joined my boycott list.
Nice wrap.
She looks like she just got off her late night shift pumping ketchup at McD’s.
Would be inevitable.
Nice move.
[She looks like she just got off her late night shift pumping ketchup at McD’s.]
I’m not certain that she’s qualified for even THAT job (Giggle, just because...)
Yeah, right. McD’s wouldnt want her.
Yes. Divisiveness has been given a bad name. Liberals are disgusting creatures. It is a normal reaction to be repulsed by them.
Two articles in one day about Penzey’s. The owner is a psycho.
Uh-huh. So she visits Penzeys. Sure. /s

Deep thinking from their “About Republicans” page:
“Remember when your distrust of big city types, and your deep rooted beliefs in paying your debts, respecting your marriage, raising kids willing to serve, honoring your word, and going to church every week had you voting for Donald Trump over Joe Biden all because Biden’s son had a computer? Or how you couldn’t vote for Hillary because she was over-prepared and used emails? “
