It was impossible to miss how Kamala Harris, like Joe Biden, refused to answer questions about their plans to expand the Supreme Court. But she also misrepresented history.
Harris claimed at the VP debate that Abraham Lincoln refused to nominate a candidate for Chief Justice in October 1864 because “Honest Abe said, it’s not the right thing to do” and wanted the people to vote first.
Lincoln, of course, said no such thing. He sent no nominee to the Senate in October 1864 because the Senate was out of session until December. He sent a nominee the day after the session began, and Salmon P. Chase was confirmed the same day. And Lincoln wanted to dangle the nomination before Chase and several other potential candidates because he wanted them to campaign for him. Lincoln’s priority was winning the election, which was necessary to win the war — and he filled the vacancy at the first possible instant.
Kamala Harris is simply inventing history.
Wow! I hope you post again in the morning so more people can see this.
I had a feeling the story was B.S., just like everything else that came out of Kami’s mouth tonight.
She liar.
As the next poster suggests, please do post again in the a.m.
The uter lack of integrity, the remorseless dishonesty of these people, is breathtaking
She’s a progressive / socialist: expect lies
For example: it wasn’t long ago she was India-indian ... now she’s a black woman.
Thanks for posting.
We knew she had to be lying....her yap was flapping.
And, she was just waiting to pounce with her well rehearsed Abe Lincoln Tall Tale.
Flat out lying, about Honest Abe, on national TV. What a disgusting witch.
Ping!
To be fair, she's a baldfaced liar.
Willie’s Ho be lying again.
This woman is a serial liar. Ugly to the bone.
Did she say anything that wasn’t a lie?
Tell them my troops. My name is pronounced...comma la.
I did not come here to be lectured by you Pence.
Wah Wah

Is that your “victim card” comma, la?
“Heel’s Up” Harris is pretty ignorant of her own history.
When she said that when Joe Zoomed her to ask her to be the VP was “the most thrilling moment of my life”....well, poor ol’ Willie.
Kinda got that old letdown....
Bump!
Make them pay social justice warriors. Get in their faces. Did you see their micro-aggression?
THEY mis-pronounced MY name! HOW DARE YOU.
And the lemmings and cucks of the PSYCHOPATH line up to kiss her heels.
Kamala Harris is the wise Indian. Don’t question braless leader.
Harris ... was unlikable and a poor debater. Same as primaries.
Liz Warren would have been more formidable.
Many on his team advised against Harris.
Thanks much!
I thought this was an excellent point for her... but no.
Lie, lie, lie.
Besides, why use Lincoln as a precedent? He strengthened the federal goobermint at the expense of the states. If he does something, it was more than likely wrong. Might as well cite FDR.
