In a disgraceful display of anger and impatience, Vice President Pence shocked the debate audience last night when he rebutted a woman of color by saying "Excuse me, Ma'am, but I disagree with your positions." The largely Mormon audience gasped at Pence's display of egregious rudeness. "I've never seen such a temper-tantrum," said CNN analyst Frida Ghitis. "The mansplaining and anger towards a woman of color who is black and also a woman is disgusting and frankly a little frightening. And all this from a supposed Christian! Where are my meds? Where are my meds?" Ghitis then downed an entire...

Nobody else started one yet. Have at it!

Vice presidential debates are rarely as thrilling as the showdowns between the two people running for commander-in-chief. But Wednesday’s faceoff between Democratic vice presidential nominee Sen. Kamala Harris and Vice President Mike Pence in Salt Lake City, Utah, is taking on heightened importance. With 74-year old President Trump and 77-year old Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden being the oldest standard bearers ever to lead the Democratic and Republican national party tickets, the vice presidential debate was already consequential – with both running mates seen as presidents in waiting. But with Trump in isolation at the White House -- after spending...

Joe Biden’s presidential campaign minimizes Sen. Kamala Harris’s (D-CA) public exposure due to Harris’s lack of charisma, alienation of moderate voters, and exposure of the former vice president’s weak mental and physical condition, said Peter Schweizer, author of Profiles in Corruption: Abuse of Power by America’s Progressive Elite, and senior contributor at Breitbart News... Schweizer noted Harris’s lack of popularity in her home state of California as evidence of the senator’s lack of charisma. “She’s not terribly popular, [and] she doesn’t poll well,”... Along comes Kamala Harris [with] a voting record to the left of Bernie Sanders — particularly when...

Presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden announced Tuesday that Sen. Kamala Harris of California would be his vice presidential running mate. Fulfilling an earlier campaign promise to have a minority female running mate, the former vice president took to his official Twitter handle to make the announcement. “I have the great honor to announce that I’ve picked @KamalaHarris — a fearless fighter for the little guy, and one of the country’s finest public servants — as my running mate,” tweeted Biden. Harris had previously been a fierce critic of Biden, taking him to task during a Democratic primary debate over...

Former Obama speechwriter Jon Favreau mocked some media outlets for referring to Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) as a "moderate," with the Pod Save America host calling the notion "hilarious.” "It was hilarious to me that she's being called, in all this coverage, a 'moderate,' like Joe Biden has found a fellow moderate or centrist. She supports something extremely close to 'Medicare for All,' which Bernie Sanders acknowledged in his statement supporting her. She's for the Green New Deal. She has one of the most liberal records in the U.S. Senate," Favreau said. Harris, who was officially announced as Biden’s running...

Kamala? Really? Well one thing is clear: Michelle said “NO.” Maybe even “Hell NO.” Don’t get me wrong. Kamala Harris is the perfect choice for Basement Biden’s VP…if your only criteria is “black female.” Because other than that, Kamala offers nothing to Biden. As in zero. Zip. Nada. The Kamala Harris VP choice is one of the great head scratchers in presidential political history. It just doesn’t make sense. Except, of course, Biden wanted and needed a “black female.” Remember only 24 hours before announcing Kamala as his VP choice, 100 black male leaders from the fields of politics, business...

Once Joe Biden named Sen. Kamala Harris as his running mate for the upcoming 2020 election, it didn’t take long for the media to begin its latest attempt to gaslight Americans.In the Associated Press announcement of Biden’s choice, AP writers Kathleen Ronayne and Will Weissert write approvingly of Harris’s “centrist record” as a contributing factor in the decision. Longtime political analyst and lobbyist Doug Schoen praised Biden’s pick while arguing Harris “could help Biden solidify his position among centrist voters and even moderate Republican voters.”Not to be outdone, The New York Times characterized Harris as a “pragmatic moderate.” In...

On Tuesday, presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden announced his running mate, the Democrats’ Great Intersectional Black-Asian Female Hope, Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.). Harris ran against Biden in the 2020 Democratic primary but she dropped out last December after lackluster debate performances, citing insufficient funds to continue the campaign. Here are five things to know about Kamala Harris. 1. Attorney General baggage After serving as the district attorney of San Francisco (2004-2011), Harris won a close race to become California’s attorney general (2010-2017). In that position, she took a tough-on-crime stance that would become extremely controversial in the 2020 primary. Harris...

Of Course, It’s Harris Well, that happened. To the surprise of a very few, Joe Biden chose Sen. Kamala Harris as his running mate. Our very own VodkaPundit called it back in May. I had been on the Harris veep wagon for a very long time but shifted in recent weeks to Susan Rice because I thought that would help Biden get the Obamas a little more enthusiastic about him. All the while, however, I kept hoping aloud that it would be Harris because — for reasons I’ll go over in this column — I thought that would be the...

President Trump said Tuesday he was “surprised” that Democratic presidential foe Joe Biden picked Kamala Harris for his running mate — ripping her as a lying, “nasty” pro-tax pol who was near the bottom of primary-race polls. “She was my No. 1 draft pick,” Trump told reporters at a White House press conference when asked how he felt about Harris’ selection. “I was surprised” that Biden picked her “because she did so poorly” in the primary race,” Trump said. The president also blasted the California senator for being “extraordinarily nasty” to US Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh during his Senate...

She's awful but he picked her

Flashback: CNN contributor who warned of sexist coverage of Biden VP once mocked Ann Romney. Hilary Rosen said of Mitt Romney's wife, she 'never worked a day in her life' A new group called “We Have Her Back” promises to make sure that the future running mate of presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden will receive fair coverage from the media, but one of the signatories vowing to defend the female VP pick from "sexist" attacks was once under fire herself for remarks she made about Ann Romney during the 2012 election.

A group of over 100 Black male leaders is declaring that presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden “has” to name a Black woman as his running mate. In a letter made public on Monday, the signatories warned the former vice president that “failing to select a Black woman in 2020 means you will lose the election.” [cut] At the top of the list is rapper, record executive and entrepreneur Sean “Diddy” Combs, [cut] The letter also posed a series of questions. Some Democrats reportedly worry Biden's VP announcement could draw attention to his gaffesVideo “Was Joe Biden ever labeled 'too...

Is Kamala Harris a natural born citizen? It is no secret that Harris wants to be Joe Biden's vice president. The junior senator from California clearly sees an opening to her real objective: the presidency of the United States. With Biden surprisingly outlasting the other anti-American socialist candidates, Harris recognizes that Biden's age and declining cognitive abilities pose a glorious opportunity to resurrect her presidential ambitions. After all, there is an good chance that the bumbling, incoherent Biden might have to resign or be removed in his first term and his V.P. would succeed him. Even if Biden managed to...

Former San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown has urged Sen. Kamala Harris to "politely decline" a spot on Joe Biden's ticket if the 2020 presumptive Democratic nominee chooses her as his running mate. In an op-ed headlined "Brown: Kamala Harris should say no to vice presidency" published by the San Francisco Chronicle on Saturday, Brown, who has openly discussed his past extramarital relationship with Harris, urged her to reject the vice presidency and request instead to be considered for the role of attorney general in a Biden administration.
