Push play

Kamala Still Claiming GOP Wants to Outlaw Birth Control Kamala Harris’ campaign is ramping up its efforts with a massive $90 million ad push over the next three weeks targeting key battleground states and expanding into new markets. Not only do the ads promote flat out lies, one of them specifically — is particularly silly. The ad opens with a couple in bed who are apparently about to have intercourse, and as the man reaches over to grab a condom, an old man steals it. “Sorry, you can’t use those,” the old man, who is wearing a suit and hovering creepily in the corner of their room says. “I’m your Republican Congressman. Now that we’re in charge, we’re banning birth control.” https://www.theblaze.com/shows/pat-gray-unleashed/kamala-harris-ads

Mark Steyn: As far as I can tell, no one who knows her likes Kamala Harris. Other than Willie Brown, that is. But the fellows who decided Joe Biden had outlived his uselessness did not wish to open up a free-for-all race for the succession. They were not willing to entertain a pseudo-primary ding-***** between Newsom, Buttigeig, whoever - and the only person available to be simply announced as de facto nominee was Kamala. So the swift surgical liquidation of Biden and the installation of Harris was accomplished. And the plan then became to keep the un-nominated nominee under wraps so that her unlikeability does not become known until, say, mid-November. This seems to be working. If one is willing to believe polls, the two latest have Kamala up four (Emerson) or, alternatively, Trump up four (Rasmussen). Which means, either way, the vice president wins, as the instant switcheroo has put the race back within the Democrats' margin of steal. Oops, did I refer to Ms Harris as the "vice president"? Pardon me, my mistake. The strategy is to present her as the change candidate, the outsider, the insurgent - notwithstanding that she is, in fact, the incumbent. To the seven remaining Biden loyalists, this is beginning to take its toll: https://jewishworldreview.com/0824/steyn081924.php

BACK TO THE THREAD. Grab the Pepto — It's DNC Alternative Reality Week Stephen Kruiser | August 19, 2024 After spending most of this election limping along in disarray, the Democrats have finally found some unity and solace in their favorite activity: circumventing the will of the voters. They're positively thrilled that they are about to nominate a woman who continues to fail upward without receiving any primary votes. There's a lot to unpack as we head into the Kabuki lovefest in Chicago. We know it's going to be awful. The Democrats' flying monkeys in the mainstream media will be hyperventilating for four days, sending wave after wave of biased awfulness crashing into every news cycle. They've never before had to sell a load of B.S. as big as this one. Heading into the convention, there are some hiccups for the Harris-Walz Snake Oil Extravaganza that are notable. The Washington Post Editorial Board went after Harris's, um, economic plan As we have been writing about since Joe Biden was deposed, Kamala Harris has never been one of the more popular kids in the Democratic Party. Could it be that some of the longstanding indifference to her hasn't been sufficiently brainwashed by Kamalamania? https://pjmedia.com/stephen-kruiser/2024/08/19/the-morning-briefing-grab-the-pepto-its-dnc-alternative-reality-week-n4931753 .

AS I’VE WRITTEN AGAIN AND AGAIN, WE’VE BEEN IN A JOBS RECESSION DURING THE ENTIRE “RECOVERY”: by Stephen Green https://instapundit.com/667626/

Here’s How The Media Are Lying Right Now: ‘Violent Crime Dropping’ Edition by Eddie Scarry Axios headline, April 12: “New data shows violent crime dropping sharply in major U.S. cities.” That assertion, the article merrily stated, “puts a serious dent in one of the most frequently used lines of attack by former President Trump and his allies, who have sought to tie Democrats to the issue since 2020.” And it comes surely by coincidence as freshly anointed Democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris gives herself a makeover as a hard ass on crime rather than the effusive “defund the police” candidate she ran as in 2020. https://thefederalist.com/2024/08/15/heres-how-the-media-are-lying-right-now-violent-crime-dropping-edition/ .

Biden's Former Chief of Staff Admits Kamala Harris Vice Presidency Was a Failure by Bob Hoge It’s not until you're somewhat deep into yet another mainstream media puff piece of Kamala Harris that you come across a rather startling admission by Joe Biden’s former chief of staff, Ron Klain. He basically admits that the Democrats’ nominee for president failed in her VP gig. The New York Times headline Sunday certainly might make you think that Harris had mastered the intricacies of the job: “A Vice Presidential Learning Curve: How Kamala Harris Picked Her Shots,” it reads. But after first describing how Harris was “deliberate and disciplined” despite the many pitfalls she faced as the first female vice president, the Times finally got to the point https://redstate.com/bobhoge/2024/08/18/bidens-former-chief-of-staff-admits-kamala-harris-vice-presidency-was-a-failure-n2178255 https://www.nytimes.com/2024/08/18/us/politics/kamala-harris-vice-president-record.html

Oh Joy.
