Harris hugs Biden record in high-stakes CNN interview
Vice President Kamala Harris sounded like the Democrat she is trying to succeed as president in tonight’s CNN interview: open to fracking, ready to crack down on the southern border and dismissive of Medicare for All.
Why it matters: Harris repeatedly cited President Biden’s record to justify her policy flip-flops since her own presidential campaign in 2019.
Along the way, she occupied the centrist Democratic position that Biden vacated when he decided to drop out.
Harris praised Biden, saying he “has the intelligence, the judgment and the commitment and the disposition to serve the American people” in his final months in office.
Harris said she has “no regrets” for publicly defending Biden after the debate that derailed his campaign.
With Gov. Tim Walz sitting deferentially by her side, Harris brushed off CNN’s Dana Bash on a question about former President Trump’s questioning of Harris’ racial identity.

Our Take: Harris and Walz sat down for their first interview since accepting the Democrat nomination on Thursday. Harris attempted to rehab her flip flopping as Dana Bash lobbed mostly softball questions at the embattled Vice President.
Some of the rehab:
Harris was against fracking until she was for it, which apparently was in 2020. She dodged questions about why she changed her mind. Instead, she said that she has “been very clear.”
On immigration, Harris apparently believes in consequences for people who cross the border illegally, another flip in policy, and a puzzling one because she opposed this position as Border Czar.
She claimed that her ‘Root causes of migration’ work has have resulted in US companies making a number of investments in south and Central America, and that migrants from that region are down. She then pivoted to blaming Trump and Republicans for not passing the disastrous border bill this term. She then bragged about prosecuting cartels. She should visit Denver.
When asked to explain her changes on so many key issues, she said, ‘My values haven’t change’ along with some climate change word salad about, ‘Holding ourselves to deadlines around time.’
For his part, Walz was largely silent except to defend his communist and criminal records. ‘People know who I am,’ he stated.
Yes, Tim we do. Read a summary in Wednesday’s Brief if you missed it. —

Biden-Harris Slush Fund: DHS Showers Millions on Sanctuary Cities, NGOs for Resettling Migrants in U.S.
President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is sending sanctuary cities and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) hundreds of millions more in American taxpayer dollars for resettling migrants across the United States.
DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas made the announcement on Wednesday.
Specifically, more than $380 million worth of Shelter and Services Program (SSP) grants will go to local and state governments, as well as NGOs, “that are providing critical support such as food, shelter, clothing, acute medical care, and transportation” to migrants “recently released from DHS custody and awaiting their immigration court proceedings.”
The Biden-Harris administration created SSP, funded by Congress, to deliver taxpayer money to cities and NGOs helping resettle migrants after they are released into the U.S. interior from the southern border.
This latest round of hundreds of millions in SSP grants to sanctuary cities and NGOs comes after millions were awarded earlier this year — serving as a boondoggle for those aiding in resettling migrants. — Breitbart
Our Take: Reports of violent newcomer gangs in Colorado have done nothing to sway progressive Democrat politicians and bureaucrats from their long held position that newcomers are our strength.
Why would it?
Decades of violence in California border towns have resulted in progressive Democrats’ decision to give the criminal invaders massive home loans.
Meanwhile, a Federal judge ruled Tuesday that Biden and Harris cannot give illegal farm workers collective bargaining rights that citizen farm workers don’t have.
Consider that for a minute. Border Czar Harris and her demented scrotus partner are advocating for criminally-invading farm workers to access rights that are not available to American farm workers.
In a change effort, you get the outcome you incentivize, and the Biden-Harris DHS is incentivizing sanctuary cities and NGOs. You can’t see the money at work solving the issue, because immigration is very complicated, it requires an elevated sense of equity and empathy and, also, the money is being laundered through NGOs.
Looting the treasury by funding an invasion is a nasty set of high crimes. Most Americans are now on board with the mass deportation platform, but we also must ensure that the communist revolutionaries driving this current fever dream are brought to justice.

When I get a chance to read the daily Badlands News Briefs I generally get a chuckle on their ‘Our take’.
I tried to watch that rancid, softball ‘interview’ on Rumble but not being a masochist I rapidly grew tired of the painful disgust I was feeling. A few minutes, then a few fast-forwards for a few seconds each.
It’s sooo sad that there may actually be adults who sucked all that crap up.
Unfortunately I’m all too familiar with what a lying pathological narcissist sounds like.
I’ll never get those few minutes of my life back.
Other than that the first clear thought I had was I really, really hope at least some of the executions are televised. I’m very disappointed to have not witnessed the end of the traitor whose name we don’t say… and of the psychopath Killary.
It truly isn’t ‘vengeance’ for me, it will be closure. Well… maybe a little of it is vengeance.
God will punish our enemies. We will arrange the meetings.
