Last week, Sen. Kamala Harris once again demonstrated her vitriol and antipathy towards an American law-enforcement institution. This time, she directed her leftist, anti-American sentiment to one of the most challenged, selfless, and invaluable institutions of the federal government: the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and the men and women in it.
In a Senate confirmation hearing for ICE Director Nominee Ronald Vitiello, Harris asked whether he shared the perception that ICE was causing fear and mistrust like the Ku Klux Klan.
Are you aware that there is a perception that ICE is administering its power in a way that is causing fear and intimidation, particularly among immigrants and specifically among immigrants coming from Mexico and Central America? she asked.
Vitiello, trying to maintain his composure responded, I do not see a parallel between the power and authority that ICE has to do its job and the agents and officers who do it professionally and excellently with lots of compassion [and the KKK].
Harriss answer was just as intellectually hollow, Sir how can you be the head of an agency and be unaware of how your agency is being perceived by certain communities?
Really, Senator? Which communities, exactly? Perhaps the ones who broke into the country illegally?
Clearly, what Harris was aiming to do was express her own objectionable opinion that ICE is somehow like the KKK. But Harris knew that if she took ownership of such an opinion, she would get irreparably attacked. What was worse in her mind, is that she would lose support for her desired presidential race. Yet she needed her base, so she hid behind the perception drapes.
Harris chose to claim that there was some sort of perception by a made-up group that ICE was as racially motivated and evil as the KKK, which, by the way, arose as the militant arm of the Democratic Party, the same party to which Harris pledges her allegiance. Predictably, Harris has shown no evidence for the existence of such a perception of ICE, or even of a community where such a perception exists. Similarly, we been unable to identify a single major poll that asked whether ICE and its activities are in any way reminiscent or comparable to the KKK.
In fact, one poll performed by Politico in July 2018 showed the opposite.
In this poll, 54% favored retaining ICE while only 25% wished to get rid of it. Additionally, in that same poll, 40%, a plurality, looked less favorably upon a congressional candidate wishing to get rid of ICE. This compared to 26% who favored such candidates. Interestingly, this latter percentage was smaller than those who either didnt care one way or the other, or had no opinion, combined (33%).
The fact is that Harris used this fictitious, fabricated community to express what is, in fact, her own rancid opinion about law enforcing, patriotic, self-sacrificing Americans. It is also the view of the radical part of the Democratic Partys base.
Of course, Kamala Harriss cowardly attack did not shield her from scorn. In fact, there is a community that perceives Harris to be anti-American. Not that she necessarily is, of course. But thats the perception of many communities.
One American who wished to remain anonymous even asked, How can Kamala remain a Senator or think of becoming President when she is unaware that there is a community that perceives her to be anti-American?
As of this writing, Sen. Harris has not responded to numerous attempts to have her answer this question.
She is dangerous.
She isn’t a natural born citizen. What do we expect from her?
Ms. Harris kinda showed her true colors when she asked Brett Kavanaugh a question about that thing he keeps in his pocket.
What was that thing Mr. Kavanaugh keeps in his pocket: The US Constitution.
Ms. Harris’ attitude was it was just junk and needs to be disregarded.
Not a big surprise she’s an enemy of the people of America. All dems are; the dem pols are just the worst of the worst. Every. Single. One.
The Democrats’ policy: Come here illegally, get an EBT card, free medicare, get free education for your kids, get rent paid for and oh by the way....vote Democrat.
She is evil, hateful, and power hungry.
IOW, a good Democrat.
The ICE Director should maybe have pointed out that it was actually Kamala Harris implanting the perception idea for those who feel triggered. She said the perception many times....has anyone ever heard of this before her questioning??
On the road to American suicide.
The Democrats policy: Come here illegally, get an EBT card, free medicare, get free education for your kids, get rent paid for and oh by the way....here’s a postage paid envelope for your early voting ballot. Mail it to us and we will vote for you.
Hide yer puppies - here comes Kamella De Vil...
I was thinking of my reply before I got to the end of the article. Exactly true. This needs to be said loud, clear and often if she has the audacity to run for president. I don’t think she should even be a senator and that’s how acute my “perception” is. She is a real messed up person. I don’t believe she could look pleasant if her life depended on it. She apparently has gone through life with a smirk and unable to utter anything but snide remarks. She obviously has been angry about something all her life and it shows. She can’t ask questions of any appointee without sarcasm. I thought the demon-rat party was pretty full of obnoxious women before she came on the scene but this one takes the cake.
I saw some of the exchange at the hearing and was waiting for her trademark, “I’ll take that as a no (or a yes).” A cute little habit of asking questions that can’t be answered adequately and that’s her comeback every time. Remember what she did to General Kelly...No two ways about it. This woman is a witch and that’s probably insulting witches. She exhibits an ability to READ when in a committee meeting and that’s about it..she’s never without a ream of paperwork to read...
“”One American who wished to remain anonymous even asked, How can Kamala remain a Senator or think of becoming President when she is unaware that there is a community that perceives her to be anti-American?””
“”She said the perception many times....has anyone ever heard of this before her questioning??””
The media avoids using that term - they always say “people think” or “some say”, or the one I like best, “what do you have to say to people who think” blah blah. It’s always they who are planting the ideas in viewers heads. I doubt they have the ability to know what ANY citizen is thinking.
This witch considers herself the smartest person in any room. The demon-rats had their share of obnoxious women BEFORE she got to the Senate..I will not be able to stand it if she runs for president. I’ll just have to leave the country - LOL. The media can’t even be convinced that she is NOT AN AFRICAN AMERICAN - her father is from Jamaica and her mother is from India. They never stopped calling obozo an African American when he was nothing of the sort and yet we’re supposed to listen to them?
I heard that exchange live. I have more respect for a rabid sewer rat than I do for that woman.
Willie needs to intervene and get her to shut her mouth the only way he knows how.
Then give her a $20, and tell her he’ll call.
Might ask Willie Brown if she was good in bed too! This “woman” has “screwed her way” to the top!
Born Jamaican/Indian/American, she was born with THREE nationalities.
Both of her parents were foreign nationals.
She is not naturally an American.
Natural born citizens are NATURALLY Americans because they CANNOT be anything else.
The children of foreign nationals are PRECISELY who the founders were excluding from being President with the natural born citizen requirement.
Is Jamacian code for Negro?
