The Vigilant Fox/X Despite CNN’s best effort to protect vice president and Democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris from herself, her first big interview left her looking like she was clueless.Interviewer Dana Bash offered a menu of soft questions that Harris should easily have answered. But as is her wont, she offered the usual word salad. Running mate Tim Walz, governor...

Politics The Slump The numbers are in and the numbers are grim.

AP Images In yet another embarrassing moment for the pro-Harris leftist media, Politico laughably suggested that Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris has had nothing to do with the Biden administration’s failed, openly anti-American policies since 2021.The website claimed that Senator J.D. Vance of Ohio, the GOP vice-presidential nominee, “tried” to link Harris with Biden, as if Harris weren’t the vice...

AP Images Even Democrats on Capitol Hill fear Vice President Kamala Harris’ plan to fight price gouging.
