However, to move to the center is, by definition, to move in the direction of the other party, toward the hated enemy and away from your most passionate supporters. Nobody wants to do that! Which is why, in times of political defeat, there is a bottomless appetite for prescriptions that reassure the defeated party members that they just need to be truer to themselves, more effective, more ruthless. And no ambitious politician wants to be the first to throw cold water on these hopes. This is the psychological spot where many Democrats find themselves today. It is completely obvious that...

Kamala Harris says the voting age should be lowered to 16 because young people "fear they'll be wiped out by extreme weather & they fear having children”

Former Vice President Kamala Harris is the GOP gift that keeps on giving. In an interview on the BBC show Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg, Harris said, “I am not done. I have lived my entire career as a life of service, and it’s in my bones.” Republicans can only hope that Harris is the Democratic Party presidential nominee again. In the 2024 race, Harris was a disastrous candidate. After performing reasonably well at the Democratic National Convention and in her only televised debate with President Donald Trump, Harris decided not to engage with the media. She was rarely interviewed and...

Failed Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris has teased another run for the White House. “I am not done,” the former vice president told the British outlet in her strongest comments so far on her political plans. “I have lived my entire career as a life of service and it’s in my bones.” The former senator from California also maintained that her grand-nieces would see the nation elect its first female president “in their lifetime, for sure.” Pressed on whether it would be her, Harris responded: “possibly.” Her comments to the network come less than a year after she lost the...

Former US Vice-President Kamala Harris has told the BBC she may run again for the White House. In her first UK interview, Harris said she would "possibly" be president one day and was confident there will be a woman in the White House in future. Making her strongest suggestion to date that she will make another presidential bid in 2028 after losing to Donald Trump last year, Harris dismissed polls that put her as an outsider to become the Democrats' pick for the next election. Speaking to Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg, Harris also turned her fire on her former rival,...

OMG! You must watch this! This is absolutely Kamala! 🤣🤣🤣 You will say, damn, who did this? 🤣

Western Lensman @WesternLensman Kamala: “Some people have said I was the most qualified candidate ever to run for president."

A freed Israeli hostage told CNN that his Hamas captors started treating him better after the 2024 U.S. elections. "He got the hostages out," Omer Shem Tov said about Trump. "They were very scared of him -- the terrorists. They wanted Kamala to be elected." "As soon as Donald Trump was elected, they understood that he wanted to bring us back home," he added. "So immediately, the way they treated me changed. The amount of food. I can say this, when Trump came into president, the way they treatest us changed, for me personally."

Kamala Harris was at the Masonic on Sunday afternoon for a conversation about her new book, “107 days.” So was Doug Emhoff, her husband. Everyone was thrilled to see them. They were in friendly territory. The ovation was deafening. “That election was quite unprecedented in a number of ways,” Harris, former San Francisco District Attorney, said at the beginning of her conversation with comedian D.L. Hughley. She was asked why she spilled the beans about that historic period after Joe Biden dropped out of the 2024 presidential race — thereby sending her off to run the shortest presidential campaign in...

Speeches by President Trump and Secretary of War Pete Hegseth to America's top generals and admirals were assailed by anonymous ex-Pentagon employees. "What difference does it make if a general or admiral is too fat to pass any of the fitness requirements that front-line soldiers and sailors are expected to meet?" one source wanted to know. "They're not going to be storming enemy positions or flying combat missions. All they have to do is give orders." Another fretted that "all the effort we've expended to compile a force that exemplifies diversity, equity, and inclusion is being cast aside. We're a...

Washington — Even as she reflects on last year’s campaign in touring for her new book, Kamala Harris has been weaving in critiques of President Donald Trump’s second term that came out of her loss – and FBI Director James Comey’s indictment was too much to ignore. “It’s frustrating, but more than that, it’s painful to see,” Harris said, speaking exclusively to CNN on Friday afternoon during a break in the Washington swing of her tour, when asked what she made of Trump’s term so far. “It’s painful to see. I mean what’s happening with Comey: Are you f***ing kidding...

The KHive fan club showed up in force to cheer on a defeated presidential candidate who, in their eyes, could do no wrong. NEW YORK — Many Democrats are still mired in a state of low-level depression after Kamala Harris’ devastating defeat in the 2024 election. President Donald Trump has steamrolled Washington, and the party’s favorability has plunged to historic lows, including among Democrats, as the circular firing-squad continues over exactly why the party lost. Harris herself has come in for her share of blame, and in recent weeks, she has tumbled in the 2028 presidential polls; she now stands...

Former Vice President Kamala Harris faced swift criticism for saying that it was not viable to have former transportation secretary Pete Buttigieg as her running mate in 2024 due to him being gay. "I guess I’d ask you to just elaborate on that a little bit. It’s hard to hear," MSNBC host Rachel Maddow said Monday during an interview with Harris about her campaign memoir."You’re the first woman elected vice president. You’re a Black woman and a South Asian woman elected to that high office, very nearly elected president. To say that he couldn’t be on the ticket effectively because...

Stephen A. Smith on Sunday dismissed news about former Vice President Kamala Harris’s upcoming book, saying, “Who cares what she has to say?” Harris’s book on her 2024 presidential campaign, “107 Days,” will be released on Tuesday. “Well, there’s nothing to elaborate about,” the ESPN commentator said on ABC’s “This Week.” “Who cares what she has to say at this particular moment in time? I hope the book is successful.” Harris, who became the Democratic nominee after former President Biden dropped out of the presidential race in July 2024, called her boss’s decision to run for reelection “reckless” in an...

In a recently released excerpt from her forthcoming book, 107 Days, Kamala Harris revealed that Pete Buttigieg would have been her ideal running mate if she had been a straight white man. But she ultimately decided not to choose Buttigieg, who is gay, because "it was too big of a risk.” You might have thought that Eugene Daniels, who is married to a man, would have criticized Harris for her rejection of Buttigieg. But for Daniels, Democrat solidarity apparently trumps gay solidarity. He went on to make the case for rejecting Buttigieg: "Kamala Harris, as a black woman, ran with...

Former Vice President Kamala Harris revealed that Pete Buttigieg was her “first choice” as running mate in last year’s presidential election, but such a pairing “was too big of a risk,” according to an excerpt from her upcoming book. Buttigieg, the former secretary of transportation and mayor of South Bend, Indiana, who is gay, “would have been an ideal partner — if I were a straight white man,” Harris wrote in a portion of “107 Days” published by The Atlantic. “But we were already asking a lot of America: to accept a woman, a black woman, a black woman married...

Former vice president and two-time presidential contest loser Kamala Harris is set to return to ABC’s The View next Tuesday nearly a year after last appearing on the show. Harris made a last ditch appearance on the far-left day-time talk show to flog her failing presidential campaign in October of 2024, only weeks before the November election, but it was all to no avail because she lost the election in a landslide. Now the former veep is set to return to the show to flog her upcoming book, “107 Days,” in which she reportedly slags her former boss, Joe Biden,...

Former Vice President Kamala Harris says that Democrats made a mistake and it was "recklessness" to allow President Joe Biden to make the decision alone on running for reelection, saying the choice should not have been "left to an individual’s ego.” In an excerpt from her forthcoming book, "107 Days," published in The Atlantic Wednesday morning, Harris, in a remarkable turnaround, said "as loyal as I am to President Biden, I am more loyal to my country," and lamented her time in Biden’s administration, saying "getting anything positive said about my work or any defense against untrue attacks was almost...

(DCNF)—U.S. job growth in the year through March was much weaker than previously reported, according to Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) revisions released on Tuesday. The U.S. economy likely added 911,000 fewer jobs in the year ending in March — or an average of almost 76,000 fewer each month — according to the BLS’ preliminary benchmark revision. The report comes after job growth slowed in August, with the U.S. economy adding just 22,000 nonfarm payroll jobs, according to data released Friday by BLS. ADVERTISEMENT The jobs report revisions were even worse than the downward adjustment of 700,000 that was previously...
