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...

Actor Jeff Daniels lamented former Vice President Kamala Harris losing the 2024 presidential election in a new interview, saying she would have governed like President Abraham Lincoln. "I still think about Kamala, and how I think she would have been a good choice," Daniels told MSNBC's Nicolle Wallace in an episode published Monday of her podcast, "The Best People." "I don't care what they say, because she would have done what Lincoln did." "Liz Cheney would have been secretary of state," Daniels said. "Team of Rivals," Wallace interjected, referencing the book by Doris Kearns Goodwin, "Team of Rivals: The Political...

President Donald Trump seems unfamiliar with the Streisand effect, the phenomenon of inadvertently drawing more attention to an issue by trying to make it go away. The president on Wednesday unleashed another rant on Truth Social, claiming, without evidence, that Democrats are behind the uproar over the administration’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein investigation. Referring to Democrats, Trump wrote on social media that their “new SCAM is what we will forever call the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax.” He then appeared to turn on his own supporters: “My PAST supporters have bought into this ‘bullshit,’ hook, line, and sinker. They haven’t learned...

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...

Kamala Harris gave an interview before the presidential election that was so “confusing and weird” that she and the host mutually agreed not to air it, a social media personality recently revealed. The former Democratic presidential candidate’s appearance on “Subway Takes,” a popular online series hosted by Kareem Rahma where guests admit their favorite hot take, was filmed in Summer 2024 but never saw the light of day, the presenter said. “Her take was really confusing and weird, not good, and so [we] mutually agreed we shouldn’t publish it,” Rahma told Forbes reporter Steven Bertoni in an interview posted on...

Former Vice-President-turned-perpetual-gaffe-machine Kamala Harris just added another entry to her blooper reel, and this one was apparently so disastrous that even her own handlers begged to deep-six it. TikTok star Kareem Rahma, host of the series Subway Takes, revealed on Forbes’ “Top Creators” show that a 2024 sit-down with Harris was spiked after she unleashed a “really, really bad” hot-take: “Bacon is a spice.” Rahma — a practicing Muslim who doesn’t eat pork — said the remark was so baffling, tone-deaf, and politically radioactive that both sides mutually agreed never to let America see the tape. Kamala Harris gave an...

Then-Vice President Kamala Harris demanded that Democratic governors worried about Joe Biden’s mental acuity fall in line behind the commander-in-chief because “this is about saving our f–king democracy,” according to a forthcoming book. Harris’ vulgar message found a loyal listener in New York Gov. Kathy Hochul, who proceeded to incorrectly tell reporters on the White House driveway following the July 3, 2024, confab that “all of us said we pledged our support” to Biden. “Many of the governors were deeply skeptical that Biden could continue his campaign, and they were furious with Hochul for suggesting otherwise,” write authors Isaac Arnsdorf,...

Kamala Harris has been derided over her gloomy Fourth of July message with eagle-eyed viewers spotting a swipe at her former running mate Joe Biden. Harris, 60, took to X to share a downbeat message about the state of the country for the national holiday. '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 Friday on X. 'But I love our country - and when you love something, you fight for it. Together, we will continue to fight for the...

Critics piled on former Vice President Kamala Harris for issuing a gloomy statement on the Fourth of July — while sharing a picture of last year’s festivities that cropped out her onetime running-mate Joe Biden. “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 Friday on X. “But I love our country — and when you love something, you fight for it. Together, we will continue to fight for the ideals of our nation.” X users were quick to point...

The brother-in-law of Vice President Kamala Harris appears to have engineered the greatest transfer of taxpayer dollars to left-wing groups in the history of the United States. Tony West, who is the husband of Harris’ sister Maya, served as the head of the Justice Department’s Civil Division and awarded massive settlements to groups aligned with the Democrats, even when the Department of Justice appeared to be winning the cases, The New York Post reported. “Until 1977, Congress had to approve any settlement of a civil suit against the Federal government over $100,000,” The Post reported. But facing numerous cases the...

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 —...

Harris has not made a final decision, a source familiar with the matter confirmed to The Hill. One source said that the possibility of entering the race has put “a glimmer in her eyes.” “She has a lot of people in her ear telling her that it makes the most sense and she can do the most good,” said one source who spoke to Harris about a potential run. Another source reportedly “pushed back” on the notion that Harris would enter the race, they told The Hill: Either way, the sources say Harris is sticking to a self-imposed end-of-summer deadline...

On Sunday, June 22, The Hill reported that failed 2020 and 2024 presidential candidate Kamala Harris is “leaning toward entering the [2026] California gubernatorial race, per sources familiar with the former vice president’s thinking.” “While the sources caution that Harris hasn’t made a final decision yet and is still considering all her options, they say she has made it clear that she is not done with public service and is giving the race strong consideration. Those who have spoken to Harris about the possibility of entering the race say it has given her a renewed sense of excitement and, as...

Kamala can’t get a call back. California Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom reportedly didn’t even pick up the phone when former Vice President Kamala Harris called him this week about the anti-ICE riots in Los Angeles County. The former vice president “wasn’t able to connect with her longtime political friend and rival but left him a voicemail to express support,” a person close to her told POLITICO’s California Playbook. A voicemail? Oh girl. She also called Los Angeles Democratic Mayor Karen Bass. Wonder if she had to leave them voicemails, too? (snip) Democratic strategist Steve Maviglio thinks Harris may be “eyeing...

THE OFFICE of KAMALA D. HARRIS Los Angeles is my home. And like so many Americans, I am appalled at what we are witnessing on the streets of our city. Deploying the National Guard is a dangerous escalation meant to provoke chaos. In addition to the recent ICE raids in Southern California and across our nation, it is part of the Trump Administration's cruel, calculated agenda to spread panic and division. This Administration's actions are not about public safety they're about stoking fear. Fear of a community demanding dignity and due process. Protest is a powerful tool essential in the...

On Sunday, Politico published a story titled "2 states, 1 tepid view of Kamala Harris and her political future." A much more accurate title of the story by Melanie Mason and Brakkton Booker would be "2 states, 2 tepid views of Kamala Harris and her political future."Although Mason and Booker tossed cold water on the idea of Harris running for president again via the South Carolina primary they were also much less than enthusiastic about her running for governor of California. If they didn't quite toss cold water on that campaign they seemed to throw much less than even lukewarm...

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...

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. Harris sat on stage with real estate industry veteran John McGrath for over an hour and recalled that her mother was very focused on women's reproductive health, which included sharing her thoughts about 'fibroids' and 'hormones.' She said:...

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...

A new book revealed that aides to Kamala Harris secretly planned for the possibility of Joe Biden's death in office as early as 2023, further fueling concerns over the former president's age and fitness for office. Questions about Biden's ability to serve another term grew throughout his presidency, with critics pointing to his advanced age and moments of confusion. Despite mounting concerns, Biden and his team insisted he was fit for re-election. However, behind closed doors, Democratic officials reportedly held secret discussions about contingency plans in case Biden had to withdraw or was unable to complete his term, the Guardian...
