#1 – Kamala Harris’ novel nickname is so amusing and hits the nail on the head – by Nick Arama
“Que Mala!” means “How bad!”
Then they tried to translate MALA into “Make America Love Again,” which is basically an attempt to copy former President Donald Trump’s MAGA structure. Harris herself has already tried to copy his policy positions, such as calling for “no tax on tips.” Trump is literally living rent-free in her head, as her team appears to be looking to him for things like this. She doesn’t seem to want to state her own positions clearly, and she still has no policy positions on her website. She’s trying to get into office without succinctly stating her thoughts, probably because if she stated her true positions, Americans would know “how bad” they really are.
#2 – Biden shows no common ground in Pittsburgh, what he says about Kamala is unbelievable – by Nick Arama
In some ways, it would be better if he stayed on vacation because he could do less damage than if he was actually on camera and speaking. How wrong it is that the Democrats put us in this position by not being candid about his condition. Kamala Harris is the main person among those who have not been candid with the American people about Biden’s concerns.
After making bizarre comments about the situation in Israel before and after a meeting in the Situation Room, Biden drove with Harris to a campaign rally with union members in Pittsburgh.
#3 – WATCH: Tom Cotton attacks NBC news anchor after she shamelessly lied and defended Kamala Harris – by Bonchie
Cotton’s critique of Welker’s arguments is perfect, not because he is so impressively political, but because it is the truth. The claim that Trump took “campaign material” at Arlington National Cemetery is simply false. None of the pictures with the family were used in ads by the Trump campaign or placed in a political context. He was there at the behest of the Gold Star families. Since their children died defending this country, I think they have the right to take some pictures if they want.
This game has long been played by the left and the federal bureaucracy. When John McCain made a video of himself walking among the gravestones, he was attacked by the press for it. When Barack Obama and Joe Biden did the same (Biden was photographed in Section 60, among others), no one said a word. No ANC official came running and told them to put the cameras away while accusing them of breaking the rules. But when a Republican shows up to honor the fallen, it’s suddenly a scandal. The whole thing is so clear.
#4 – Honolulu: Man stops and kills mass murderer and is promptly arrested… for murder — by Jim Thompson
The Honolulu Police Chief gleefully announced that it doesn’t matter if you have a “license” to carry a gun and defend yourself and actually prevent a mass shooting on your own property, you will be arrested for murder. A few days ago he said: happened:
Three people were killed and two others injured in a shooting at a home in Waianae, a community in western Oahu, on Saturday night over a dispute between neighbors. The gunman was also shot by a local resident who was arrested on second-degree murder charges, police said.
Police Chief Arthur Logan (he wants to be called “Joe”) told the local newspaper that in the state of Hawaii and in his city, one cannot defend oneself on the basis of the “stand your ground” principle.
#5 – WATCH: ‘Trump’ impersonator hilariously explains how he worked at McDonald’s like Kamala – by Nick Arama
Tim Walz seems to be constantly lying about his past, and Kamala Harris can’t even state her political views clearly and seems to say whatever helps her politically, regardless of the truth. She also seems to have made a habit of stealing political views from her opponent, former President Donald Trump, including the idea of not taxing tips.
It’s difficult to imagine, but there were even doubts about whether Kamala Harris was telling the truth when she worked at McDonald’s as a newborn woman making fries. Who would make something like that up? But she never mentioned it on her resume, nor in any of her books or biography.
