Flotsam and Jetsam - Defining Kamala

The actual President (in name only), Joe Biden, has all but dropped out of the news, as Democrats and the media (but I redund) try to push the idea on us that Kamala Harris will be the next Preznit. However, Stacy McCain is still looking on with a jaundiced eye at ‘Sundown Joe’ and World War III "The problem with the media’s political make-believe games is that the president’s duties as Commander-in-Chief cannot be wished away, at a time when events in the Middle East are at a perilous turn . . . "@amuse@amuse, Joe Biden climbed back up the stairs of an airplane he wasn't supposed to be on, as Kamala Harris and the Secret Service watched in disbelief. He clearly has no idea where he is or what he's doing. h/t@ianmSC" I heard he went up the steps to thank the flight crew. It may even be true. Meanwhile the first son's trials and tribulation continue, Hunter Biden tax trial: Judge rules Hallie Biden will testify with immunity "Hunter Biden is charged with failing to pay $1.4 million in taxes." It's not fair, he had to give half to the "big guy," does he have to pay the taxes on that?

Meanwhile, it's pretty clear Kamala will be running for Preznit using a modification of the Biden Basement campaign, going everywhere, saying very little, or a least very little that makes sense except for promising everything possible to all the interest groups, and expecting the media to cover for her. At Da Caller, Dem Strategist Tells CNN Host Harris Will Be ‘Defining Herself’ With Ad Spending So She Doesn’t Need To Do Interviews and Segment Comes Unglued After Leo Terrell Rips Dem For Failing To Explain Harris’ Policy Flip-Flops. Capt. Ed at Hat Hair, WaPo: Obamaites Take Over Team Kamala. Take over? They've been behind the throne to whole time. At NewsMax, Larry Bell opines Democrats, Media Gloss Over Harris White House Record. ZitoSalena@ZitoSalena, "Becomes Democratic nominee for president taking zero questions from the press. Curious where the voices among the national print & cable & network news organizations & individual reporters voicing deep concerns. There is so much the public does not know." RedState's 'Bonchie' claims Kamala Harris' Public Inauthenticity Stems From Being Psychotic Behind Closed Doors. The Victory Girls point out Code Switching Is Media’s New Term for Kamala’s Phoniness. At Althouse, "Kamala is throwing a party. She doesn't believe in anything. Well, she's flip-flopped. It's not flip-flop." "Says Tim Dillon, a third of the way into his podcast that began with a description of his visit to The Sphere in Las Vegas." Ace's KT, calls her The Perfect Candidate, "zero depth, adjustable identity. You're black? She's is, too. You're Caribbean? She is, too. You're Asian? She is, too. You're Indian? She is, too. You're a mom? She is, too. You don't have kids? She doesn't either." F--- the White women': Black activists tied to VP Harris could derail Dem 'unity' message with past rhetoric, "Cora Masters Barry, Melanie Campbell have visited Biden-Harris White House over 50 times combined." Insty, WHY IS DNC-CNN SUCH A CESSPIT OF RACISM? CNN Host Explains Why These Black Men Are Likely ‘Low Info Voters’ for Their Opinion of Kamala Harris. Tom Elliott@tomselliott, "Black guys at Harrisburg barbershop tell local CBS reporter that ⁦@KamalaHarris⁩ isn’t really black: “To me, no.” Althouse, "But it’s... a different time. From school board meetings to board rooms, Americans... question whether affirmative action and diversity and inclusion programs are achieving what they’re supposed to." "Writes Jeremy W. Peters, in "Should Harris Talk Much About Her Racial Identity? Many Voters Say No. Even as Trump plays up racial divisions, many Americans said they would rather not dwell on race or identity. 'We can all see that you’re Black'" (NYT)." PJM's Matt Margolis makes the case Of Course Kamala Harris Was A DEI Hire. The Babylon Bee snarks ‘'DEI Hire' Is A Slur’ Explains Head Of DEI Hiring Department.

At OutKick, 72 Percent Of Voters Oppose Men In Women’s Sports, Don’t Realize Kamala Harris Supports It. WokeSpy reports Social Media Corrects Fact-Checking Website Over Kamala Harris’ Support For Illegal Alien Health Care Coverage. Free for all! Paul Bedard at WaEx, Voters fail Harris on border, 60% say it’s key to their vote. Sporting News Weekly finds Harris Wanted to Use Illegal Registry to Harass Gun Owners and Confiscate Firearms

At Hat Hair, Josh Shapiro Make-Over, Aisle Eight! Vince Dao@VinceDaoTV, "They just scrubbed Josh Shapiro volunteering for the IDF from his Wikipedia page. Damage control has been turned up to the max. Would be a shame if the Democrat base found out!" In progressive land, the future is always the same, it's the past that keeps changing. (H/T, George Orwell). Da Mail reports Kamala Harris's husband Doug Emhoff cheated on his first wife with daughter Ella's nanny Najen Naylor - and got her PREGNANT. Not really a big issue, but imagine if it were Melania. It would be headlines everywhere. At Insty, THAT WILL LEAVE A MARK: Michaelah Montgomery Sets It Off at the Atlanta Trump-Vance Rally. Reuters, U.S. labor market weakens, stocks plunge. "That heightened fears the economy was vulnerable to a recession." Fox, Harris blames Trump for latest dreadful jobs report nearly a full term after he left office "July marked the highest level for the jobless rate since October 2021." It's more likely than her taking any responsibility. Matt Whitlock@mattdizwhitlock "Loving these short, raw “courtesy of Kamala Harris” ads the Trump Super PAC is running in targeted swing areas. Grocery bills, gas prices, border chaos, crime - very strong reminders of the issues that gave Kamala Harris a 35% approval rating."

Will there be any more debates? With Biden out of the picture, Trump wants the next debate on Fox, and Kamala doesn't. Althouse, Trump rejects the old agreement to debate — with Kamala Harris swapped in for Joe Biden — and proposes a new one. But I think, in the end, the old one will prevail. "Here's what Trump wrote at Truth Social last night: "I have agreed with FoxNews to debate Kamala Harris on Wednesday, September 4th." He has agreed. She hasn't agreed, and I don't think she will. Why would she? She's boldly claimed Joe Biden's position as the Democratic Party's candidate, and she can claim status as the successor to the agreement. And she will want to, because the terms are favorable to her, and the terms of the proposed new agreement are worse. It's Fox News, instead of ABC." Also, "I spent Hundreds of Millions of Dollars, Time, and Effort fighting Joe, and when I won the Debate, they threw a new Candidate into the ring. Not fair, but it is what it is!" Writes Trump, at Truth Social. Fox, Trump agrees to debate Kamala Harris on Fox News "The Trump-Kamala debate would be held Sept. 4 in Pennsylvania." Jazz Shaw, Trump Agrees to Fox News Debate With Harris, but What About Kamala? WokeSpy, Kamala Harris Offers Ludicrous Reason Why She Won’t Debate Donald Trump on Fox News. Sarah Arnold at TownHall, Kamala Harris Declines Fox Debate With Trump, Here's What She Wants to Do Instead. She can't risk having mods that won't give her the questions in advance. If she can't have staff compose an answer for her to memorize she devolves into word salad. Nick Arama at RedState, Megyn Kelly and Others Serve Dems, Media Some Reality As They Try to Spin Kamala's Refusal to Debate.

The Peacock whines about How an Elon Musk PAC is using voter data to help Trump beat Harris in 2024 election. From Breitbart, ‘We Need to Keep Our Heads Down’: Carville Says Dems ‘Are Not Close’ to Beating Trump. Althouse, "Taiwan must be 'mentally prepared' for a Trump victory in November — and the scrutiny that will come with that..." ""... said Mei Fu-hsing, director of the Taiwan Security Analysis Center, a New York-based research center. 'If [Trump] is reelected, he will certainly demand Taiwan to significantly increase its own defense spending and be more proactive in preparing for war,' Mei said. Improved training is a key way for Taiwan to show it is taking military readiness seriously, analysts say." Sounds reasonable. At WaEx, Conservative group announces seven-figure ad campaign against battleground Democrats.

From Fox, Liberal media pundits slam JD Vance, but voters, donors give him a chance. "From being on the ground and looking at how the money is flowing, reports of JD Vance being a disastrous mistake seem way too early to be believed." Alex Thompson@AlexThomp "Josh Shapiro on Vance: “JD Vance is a total phony baloney. He is the most inorganic candidate I think I have ever seen on the national stage. He doesn’t know what he believes.”" Beege Welborn at Hat Hair, "Says the presumptive VP candidate currently having his biography scrubbed of any references to his Jewishness who would be the running mate of the biggest phony ever. Well. I'd say Harris-Shapiro are who they are, but they aren't, are they? How's that for a profound word salad. JD's gonna eat this clown's lunch." WokeSpy says J.D. Vance Provides Perfect Response To Race-Baiting CNN Question "“She is everything to everybody, and she pretends to be somebody different depending on what audiences she is in front of. I think it’s totally reasonable for the president to call that out, and that’s all he did,” Vance added."

MD Kittle at Da Fed reports Ohio Secretary Of State Finds 499 More Noncitizens Registered To Vote. Keep looking. At WokeSpy, a Shocking Video Claims 14% Of Swing State Voters Are Non-Citizens.

Matt Vespa at TownHall, We Know Why the Secret Service Never Knew Anything About Trump's Would-Be Assassin Until It Was Too Late. "It was so apparent to me that in this incident, in the final 30 seconds, which has been the focus of what happened before the assailant opened fire, there was clearly radio transmissions that may have happened on that local radio net that we did not have," acting Director Ronald Rowe said at a news conference." Paul Bedard reports Six in 10 Republicans see Biden administration’s hand in Trump shooting. It's hard not to be suspicious. OTP, Dems’ Death Cult: Sen. Tester Blasted For Praising Poster Depicting Trump Dead. Gabe Kaminsky at WaEx, Tester under fire for praising poster depicting Trump dead: ‘Sick and twisted’. Matt Vespa again, with a report that There Was a Very Strange Incident at Mar-a-Lago This Week "a Chinese national tried to infiltrate the residence of former President Donald Trump. Zijie Li, 38, of El Monte, California, tried repeatedly to gain access to the property. This was a concerted effort that quickly got the attention of the Secret Service and local law enforcement around the property following the July 13 assassination attempt on the former president in Butler, California. Li claimed to have documents tying his government to the assassination attempt (via Fox News):" Hmmm.

WaEx reports Supreme Court’s immunity ruling returns to DC Circuit Court of Appeals. "On Friday, the Supreme Court’s immunity ruling was sent back to the District of Columbia Circuit Court of Appeals, which, in turn, sent it immediately down to Judge Tanya Chutkan at the district court level to address." Will she try to turn it around quickly enough to give Jack Smith another crack at The Donald before the election? She can try, but it probably won't work.

At Da Caller, Trump Did Not Lunge For Limo Steering Wheel On Jan 6, Witnesses Tell Inspector General contrary to Cassidy Hutchinson's testimony to the J6 Committee (which, admittedly, was secondhand). At OTP, Secret Service Fail: Harris Came Within 20 Feet Of Pipe Bomb On J6. But remember, the bombs (one at the RNC too) were designed not to explode, even though they had real explosives. Somehow, even though they have a license plate, the FBI has been unable to identify to bomber.

From Campus Reform a report that Prosecutors drop charges against 300+ anti-Israel encampment protesters nationwide; expert warns campus agitators might 'escalate with impunity'. Trey Hammond at CJ says Prosecute Criminal Protesters "Criminal anti-Israel demonstrators often go unpunished, even as other groups face severe sanctions."

At Hat Hair, Didn't We Just Release Cyber Criminals? CISA and FBI Warn of DDoS Cyber Attacks "Today, as part of their public service announcement series for the 2024 election cycle, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) jointly released Just So You Know: DDoS Attacks Could Hinder Access to Election Information, Would Not Prevent Voting.

From CJ, Leor Sapir examines The Deposition of Meredithe McNamara. "The Yale physician and expert witness in U.S. lawsuits over youth gender medicine misrepresents her clinical experience."
