The gender gap between men and women has been a durable fact of life in American politics — and nowhere is this gap larger than among the youngest cohort of American adults, Gen Z. But it’s not just politics driving the divide. The latest NBC News Decision Desk Poll powered by SurveyMonkey shows how the political gender gap persists alongside different social beliefs between young men and women. Gender divides within adults ages 18 to 29 show up in questions ranging from how Americans feel about President Donald Trump to their views on what constitutes success. Young men and women...

The Los Angeles Police Department has pulled its cops from a security detail at Kamala Harris’ Brentwood, California home after outrage that crime-fighting units were being diverted to guard the former vice president. A dozen Metro Division officers had been stationed outside Harris’ mansion after President Trump revoked her Secret Service protection last week, ending an extension through which had been quietly granted by President Biden. By Saturday, the backup was gone, sources told the Los Angeles Times. The short-lived detail drew fury inside the department after LAPD officers were pulled from crime suppression in the San Fernando Valley to...

Kamala Harris’ new security detail is made up of Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) officers, who have been reassigned to guard the former vice president after President Trump withdrew her Secret Service protection, according to a report. As many as 14 of LAPD’s elite Metro Division officers have been “pulled from working cases” and “crime suppression efforts” to provide security for Harris, local outlet FOX 11 reported on Wednesday. The outlet recorded an unmarked LAPD SUV with at least two plainclothes officers sitting in the driveway outside Harris’ home in the upscale Brentwood neighborhood of Los Angeles, where the failed...

The top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee was sworn into his new leadership role earlier this week by former Vice President Kamala Harris – one of the key ex-White House officials the panel’s chair is interested in hearing from in its probe of President Joe Biden. Rep. Robert Garcia, D-Calif., was elected to serve as ranking member of the committee in June, following the death of former ranking member Rep. Gerry Connolly, D-Va. Harris, who swore Garcia in as mayor of Long Beach in 2014 when she was California’s attorney general, reprised that role on Wednesday in a ceremonial...

Former Vice President Kamala Harris announced Thursday a list of events to promote her memoir about the 2024 presidential race, titled '107 Days' which was the length of her losing campaign. Harris' list of tour stops predominantly includes deep-blue cities, and kicks off on September 24th in New York City, the day after her book is released. But the itinerary looks more like a safe space to pull in cash than a listening tour for a 2028 redo. Tickets for Harris' book parties - billed as a candid and personal recounting of 2024 - range from $75 over $331. Notably,...

Former Vice President Harris announced on Wednesday that she will not run for governor of California in 2026, putting an end to speculation that she would seek her state’s top executive role after her loss to President Trump in November. “In recent months, I have given serious thought to asking the people of California for the privilege to serve as their Governor. I love this state, its people, and its promise. It is my home. But after deep reflection, I’ve decided that I will not run for Governor in this election,” Harris said in a statement. The former vice president...

Former Vice President Kamala Harris was mocked on Monday for commemorating the one-year anniversary of the start of her failed presidential campaign. One year ago Monday, then-President Joe Biden announced via social media that he would be dropping out of the presidential race. He shortly thereafter endorsed Harris, who went on to become the Democratic nominee for the 2024 presidential election. Harris celebrated the anniversary by writing a post on X with photos from her past campaign. “One year ago today, I began my campaign for President of the United States. Over the 107 days of our race, I had...

Kamala Harris left an audience baffled as she laughed and talked about Playboy magazine covers. The former vice president also launched into a confusing 'word salad' after being asked about the importance of humility. Her bizarre comments were made on Sunday during a question and answer session at the Australian Real Estate Conference, where she shared a 'funny' story about her mother.(snip) She said: 'My mother was actually very funny because she would say, "You look at the cover of Playboy magazine, let me just tell you, the reason that people are looking at these things, understand what they were...

Former Vice President Kamala Harris faced backlash after sharing a July Fourth photo on social media that conveyed a bleak outlook for America's future—and appeared to crop out former President Joe Biden. Rather than celebrating America and its freedoms, Harris portrayed a bleak view of the country, claiming it is in a difficult place due to President Donald Trump’s leadership. “This Fourth of July, I am taking a moment to reflect. Things are hard right now. They are probably going to get worse before they get better,” Harris posted on X. “But I love our country — and when you...

Earlier on Thursday, the House passed President Donald Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill, just in time for the July 4 deadline. There's been plenty of fearmongering from Democrats over the bill, including and especially from House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY), who spoke for over eight hours as part of his "magic minute" speech. Other, even more has-been Democrats have also weighed in to express their concerns, including former President Joe Biden and former Vice President Kamala Harris. Biden, or whoever was posting on his behalf, claimed that the "bill is not only reckless — it’s cruel," which is what...

Former Vice President Kamala Harris’ husband, attorney Doug Emhoff, is joining the USC faculty to teach law students, the university plans to announce later Monday. Emhoff, who received his law degree from USC in 1990, will start the job at the USC Gould School of Law on July 1. He taught at Georgetown University’s law school while his wife served as then-President Biden’s vice president and when she was the 2024 Democratic nominee for president. “One of the best parts of my time as Second Gentleman was spending time with these students and young people all around the country —...

Rosie O’Donnell took to social media on Monday to promote a “recount” of President Donald Trump’s landslide victory over former Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 election. The comedian shared a post to her Instagram Story from social media influencer Joe Braxton, who claimed that Tesla CEO Elon Musk “hacked and stole” the 2024 presidential election in his demand for a “recount.” “We Demand A Recount!” the online influencer exclaimed in the caption of his Instagram post, which was shared by O’Donnell. Braxton went on to bizarrely alleged that “Elon hacked and stole the election, then created a department...

The Washington Examiner reported that Kamala Harris's running mate, Tim Walz, maintained close ties and even donated money to an organization headed by an antisemitic Muslim Imam. According to the report, Walz maintained close friendship ties with Imam Assad Zaman, who heads the "American-Islamic Association in Minnesota." In recent years, Imam Zaman used his Facebook page to share official Hamas press releases, shared posts from antisemitic blog sites, and in 2015 even shared a link to the propaganda film, "The Greatest Story Never Told," which praises Nazi leader Adolf Hitler and was released in 2013. As Governor of Minnesota, Walz...

As the riots raged this week in Los Angeles, four things became clear: L.A.’s leaders are feckless; foreign money is behind the rioters; protesters are expressing a soup of different grievances; and all this may happen elsewhere. As with the BLM riots in 2020, the L.A. disturbances are not spontaneous or chaotic. They have been planned, supported, and even staffed by activist organizations whose goals have nothing to do with immigration law or the plight of day laborers lingering in Home Depot parking lots. On the most recent episode of The Drill Down, co-hosts Peter Schweizer and Eric Eggers break...

Protesters in two of Texas' largest cities clashed with police on Monday night to show solidarity with demonstrations in Los Angeles against President Donald Trump's sweeping deportation raids. As Trump mobilized 700 Marines to deal with the mayhem in LA, tensions quickly escalated in Dallas and Austin at anti-Immigration Customs Enforcement (ICE) rallies. Dallas police began arresting individuals just before 9pm after they pleaded with protestors to stay off the Margret Hunt Hill Bridge, a busy thoroughfare into downtown filled with cars zooming by. As darkness fell on the city, a line of cops blocked the advance of the protestors...

The violence from protesters involved in the pro-migration, foreign-flag-waving riots in Los Angeles is “escalating,” Los Angeles Police Department Chief Jim McDonnell revealed during a press conference. During the press conference, McDonnell revealed that the violence is “getting increasingly worse and more violent” since the riots first started over the weekend. McDonnell also added that protesters were shooting “commercial grade fireworks” at LAPD officers. McDonnell also revealed that he respects U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents, adding that they are a “fellow law enforcement agency.” “To the people who are not happy with the fact that ICE is in...

Former Vice President Kamala Harris was slammed by conservatives on social media after she issued a statement on the anti-ICE riots in Los Angeles, blaming the Trump administration and calling the unrest "overwhelmingly peaceful." "Los Angeles is my home," Harris posted Sunday as riots had broken out across the city for several days, led by protesters upset with federal agents arresting illegal immigrants in the city, prompting the Trump administration to send in the National Guard. "And like so many Americans, I am appalled at what we are witnessing on the streets of our city," she said. "Deploying the National...

The deployment of the National Guard to Los Angeles is a “dangerous escalation meant to provoke chaos,” former Vice President Kamala Harris said in a statement that did not condemn the riot against immigration enforcement agents. Harris, the failed 2024 Democrat presidential candidate, broke her silence more than 30 hours after rioters rampaged against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents seeking to enforce the nation’s immigration law. “Los Angeles is my home,” Harris said in a statement posted to X. “And like so many Americans, I am appalled at what we are witnessing on the streets of our city....

Kamala Harris has triggered further speculation that she is not running for governor of California and has higher political ambitions. Rumors of a 2028 White House run started circulating after she delivered a lackluster three-minute virtual address to the Democratic state political convention that was politely received by the audience. In a steady, monotone voice, she spoke about the Trump administration’s recent actions against universities and praised activists efforts to fight the president’s agenda. “While this administration in Washington tries to divide us, we hear know that we are stronger when we stand together,” she said, a flashback to her...

CNN’s Jake Tapper, one of the biggest shills for Biden and his “sharp as a tack” mental state, is now seeking to profit with a sham exposé of the Democrats’ cover-up with his new book “Original Sin,” co-authored by Axios’ Alex Thompson. An excerpt from the book reveal that Harris lost it after her post-debate interview in an entitled rant about how the Vice President deserves to be treated. “I thought we were better than that,” she allegedly said. Kamala Harris was visibly triggered as she stammered at Cooper’s questioning of Biden’s horrible debate performance in the June 27, 2024...
