SIX fatal secrets about Harris's dirty past, her lies and hypocrisy that she'll wish you didn't know

 


No.1: Harris owns the border

Despite attempts by the liberal media to claw back Harris's appointment as Biden's 'border czar', it is indisputably true that she was deputized as such.

'Harris, appointed by Biden as border czar, said she would be looking at the 'root causes' that drive migration' – that's a report from Axios dated April 14, 2021.

By the end of this administration, an estimated 10 million migrants will have crossed into the United States illegally.

Among those are potentially hundreds of known terrorists. And then there's the unknown number of 'gotaways' who have evaded border control.

Texas Governor Greg Abbott told Fox News on Monday that Harris has contacted him 'zero times' throughout her tenure.

Here's Harris during her infamous June 2021 interview with NBC's Lester Holt, who asked why she still hadn't been to the border:

Harris: 'We've been to the border.'

Holt: 'You haven't been to the border.'

Harris: 'I haven't been to Europe.' [Awkward cackling] 'I don't understand the point that you're making.'

No.2: She has repeatedly vouched for Biden's physical and cognitive health

Harris has done this for years, insisting as recently as February that 'we have a very bold and vibrant president in Joe Biden… Our president is in good shape, in good health, and is ready to lead in our second term'.

There are only two explanations for this: Either Harris was kept so far out of the president's loop, privy to nothing of importance, that she had no idea he was in such terrible shape.

Or, more likely to my mind, she lied to the American people out of self-interest.

No.3: She's an alleged bully

Since taking office as VP, Harris has had a staff turnover rate of almost 92 percent, according to a top government watchdog.

Such churn-and-burn has apparently been a Harris hallmark throughout her two decades in public service.

She is reportedly well-known for cursing out her staff, for chasing her most talented hires out the door, and refusing to read her briefing books, then exploding at her staff for being unprepared.

'It's clear that you're not working with somebody who is willing to do the prep and the work,' one ex-staffer told the Washington Post in 2021. 'With Kamala, you have to put up with a constant amount of soul-destroying criticism and also her own lack of confidence. So you're constantly sort of propping up a bully and it's not really clear why.'

Again, Harris shares these failings — the alleged lashings-out at loyal staff, the tantrums and the blame-shifting — with President Biden. It all speaks to someone intellectually, and interpersonally incapable of executing the most stressful job in the world.

No.4: Even for a politician, she's particularly craven

After accusing Biden of backing historically racist policies during a televised June 2019 presidential debate — causing Biden to reportedly say during a commercial break, 'Well, that was some f***ing bull****', and forever earning the enmity of Jill Biden — Harris, who dropped out of that race with a 3 percent approval rating, accepted his VP slot.

Biden, remember, caved to pressure to select a black woman as his running mate.

She has also shamelessly shape-shifted from being a tough-on-crime prosecutor, who oversaw more than 1,900 marijuana convictions, to a pro-defund-the-police ally.

Now, of course, she's backtracking once more, tacking center, and boasting of her time in law enforcement.

No.5: Zero foreign policy experience and zero backbone

Harris' husband, Doug Emhoff, is Jewish, yet Harris caves to the radicals in her own party, refusing to attend Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's wartime address to Congress last week.

When she finally did meet him, Harris warned Netanyahu that 'I will not be silent' over Gaza and that while Israel 'has the right to defend itself' (how condescending), 'how it does so matters'.

Days later, Hezbollah launched rockets into an Israeli playground, killing 12 children and injuring many more.

No.6: No stated premise or philosophy

'We're not going back' is the emerging Harris slogan, and I will say this – it's ingenious.

It allows the voter to project whatever meaning they like, and for women, many will surely interpret this as a call to restore reproductive rights in full. Such is the minefield the Trump-Vance ticket must navigate.

That said, Harris has no existential reason for running. She has no record, no real cause to show after four years as VP.

Right now, she's running on the fumes of relief and emotion, the attempt to turn her into your 'cool wine aunt', a Gen Z 'brat' who is messy and relatable – but this all has a very short shelf life.

If Kamala Harris can't project confidence, purpose and a real, actionable agenda, she will remain nothing but a figurehead — another empty suit that the true Dem powerbrokers put forward as their latest useful idiot.


Media Morons Mourn “Moderate” and “Pragmatic” Dead Hamas Leader

 

When Israel out Hamas terror boss Ismail Haniyeh, it broke a lot of hearts including that of white BLM leader Shaun King.

King, who is allegedly white, is a former BLM activist turned random grifter who converted to Islam. And like any grifter went to the most extreme cartoonish version of what he imagined that would be like.

In response to Haniyeh’s execution, Shaun King reportedly posted that, “The United States and Israel have just assassinated the dear brother Ismail Haniyeh – who was the political head of Hamas,” the white Muslim BLM leader mourned. “These genocidal monsters think that this weakens Hamas, or weakens the resistance, but it does neither. It will only strengthen both.”

King was not alone. The Houthis were upset. The terror group that attacks civilian ships claimed that, “targeting Ismail Haniyeh is a heinous terrorist crime and a flagrant violation of laws and ideal values.”

But the media was quite upset too and launched its effort to posthumously rebrand the Hamas boss as “moderate” and “pragmatic”.

The BBC described Haniyeh as “moderate and pragmatic”. “Ismail Haniyeh was the pragmatic face of Hamas – his death is a major blow for the group”, Sky News headlined its coverage. “Haniyeh was the public face of Hamas’s diplomacy in Arab capitals. He was leading efforts to negotiate a ceasefire in Gaza.”

Reuters followed the meme: “Tough-talking Haniyeh was seen as the more moderate face of Hamas”.

What’s the source of this false media meme? As usual, Hamas’ state sponsors in Qatar.

“Palestinians across Gaza and the West Bank also view Ismail Haniyeh as a moderate leader who is much more pragmatic compared to other leaders who head the military side of the movement,” Al Jazeera’s Hani Mahmoud in Gaza said.

If only he had also been an austere religious scholar too.

Israel’s strikes on terror chiefs show it will fight alone — despite US reluctance

On Tuesday, Iran’s newly inaugurated President Masoud Pezeshkian was greeted with the now all-too-familiar frenzied chants of “Death to Israel” and “Death to America” in the streets, cafes and public squares of Tehran.

The crowds should have tried screaming “Death to Haniyeh.” It would have been far more prescient.

That day, just hours after meeting with Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh was killed in Tehran by an apparent precision-guided missile, no doubt courtesy of the Israel Defense Forces.

Good riddance.

Haniyeh, the terror group’s top political honcho, was responsible for the deaths of tens of thousands of people — including hundreds of Americans — in the war against Israel he started.

He was a primary driver of the Oct. 7 attacks and directly culpable in the murder and kidnapping of US citizens — seven of whom are still being held dead or alive by Hamas in Gaza.

Israel is showing the White House how to win.

After months of self-defeating handcuffing by the Biden administration and its insistence on restraint and “proportionate responses,” Israel said “enough” — and went for Hamas’ jugular.

Killing Haniyeh in Tehran wasn’t the only victory of the day.

Earlier, in Beirut, Israel claimed responsibility for killing Fuad Shukr, the third-ranking member in command of Hezbollah.

Shukr is widely believed to have been responsible for last Saturday’s attack that killed 12 Druze children on a soccer field in the Golan Heights in Northern Israel.

The two targeted actions were a continuation of the IDF’s overall strategy to disassemble, on a top-down basis, Hamas, Hezbollah and the military command structure of Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps — one leader at a time.

Khamenei and Hassan Nasrallah, Iran’s Hezbollah toady, suffered left and right hooks from Israel in the span of 24 hours.

Both men likely now are wondering if their own bunkers are deep enough — and fear now may drive them to all-out war with Jerusalem.

They’re also likely looking over their shoulders, wondering who in their orbit clued in the Mossad — Israel’s intelligence service — to Haniyeh’s and Shukr’s locations, deep behind enemy lines in Beirut and Tehran.

Khamenei cannot let this pass: After all, Haniyeh died in his capital and on a day that the Axis of Resistance had gathered in Tehran to witness the inauguration of Pezeshkian.

What was to be a gathering of the mighty and defiant enemies of Israel and the West proved to be the assembly of the weak and vulnerable.

Regime survival demands a response, and losing face to this enemy could rapidly destroy Khamenei’s grip on power throughout Iran.

Yet Iran’s first attempt at hitting Israel directly on April 14 proved to be a spectacular failure — and an embarrassment all of its own.

Only a handful of hundreds of Iranian drones, ICBM missiles and glide bombs got through Israeli defenses, and none hit a significant target.

The first reprisal move made by IRGC Brigadier General Esmail Qaani might be to unleash his proxies in Syria, Iraq and Yemen to target American military forces.

The goal would be to kinetically exploit what Iran likely interprets to be the growing wedge between Vice President Kamala Harris and Netanyahu.

Harris last week — wittingly or not — sent that message to Khamenei and Nasrallah as she crassly pandered to Gen Z and progressive voters by opting to embarrass Netanyahu at the White House, using their bilateral meeting to criticize Israel over its war against Hamas.

The presumptive Democratic nominee said she wouldn’t be silent — and on Tuesday, Bibi in effect responded, saying with Israel’s actions that he will not be cowed by ill-advised White House obstructionism.

Iran will have to try to hit Israel; Khamenei has vowed revenge — including, purportedly, a direct strike.

But his calculus must include doing so without threatening his nuclear-weapons program, which is rapidly approaching breakout.

Unleashing Hezbollah might, in Khamenei’s view, be the only option that ensures regime survival and preserves his nuclear facilities.

Israel, however, may not wait.

The IDF sent Khamenei and Nasrallah the same message Tuesday: Israel is not afraid of you — and we are willing to take you on alone, with or without White House support.

Doubt Israel?

Just ask Haniyeh or Shukr.

They just learned how to negotiate a permanent cease-fire the hard way.

Vance rips Biden-Harris admin over 9/11 plea deals: ‘We need a president who kills terrorists, not negotiates with them’

Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance ripped the Biden-Harris administration Wednesday for cutting an anger-inducing plea deal that will spare three terrorists allegedly responsible for the Sept. 11 attacks from the death penalty.

“We need a president who kills terrorists, not negotiates with them,” Vance told a crowd of supporters at a campaign stop in Glendale, Arizona.

The Ohio senator referenced The Post’s exclusive story that revealed the Department of Defense- approved pre-trial agreements with Khalid Sheikh Mohammed — the accused principal architect of the al Qaeda attacks — and two alleged co-conspirators, Walid Muhammad Salih Mubarak Bin ‘Attash, and Mustafa Ahmed Adam al Hawsawi.

The plea deal lets the men live out their days behind bars.

“Just today, I heard that the Biden-Harris Department of Justice cut a deal with al Qaeda terrorist Khalid Sheik Mohammed to avoid the death penalty. As someone who enlisted in the Marines to serve after 9/11, that is ridiculous, but it’s not surprising,” Vance, 39, said at Wednesday’s rally.

“Just think about the point that we’ve gotten to: Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have weaponized the Department of Justice to go after their political opponents, but they’re cutting a sweetheart deal with 9/11 terrorists,” he continued, incorrectly identifying the DOJ as the prosecuting agency.

“We need a president who kills terrorists, not negotiates with them.”

The statement earned a hearty round of applause from the crowd, echoing sentiments from across the country, especially from the surviving loved ones of the Twin Towers tragedy who felt death was the only appropriate punishment for the perpetrators of the heinous attacks.

The plea deal wasn’t the only thing Vance blamed Harris for.

The “Hillbilly Elegy” author slammed her position as “border czar” during her three and a half years as vice president, during which time about 1.7 million migrants slipped past Border Patrol and are living in the US, according to data from the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability.

Vance also poked fun at Harris’ accent, which was mocked relentlessly on social media after she seemingly slipped into a southern drawl during a Tuesday rally in Atlanta, Georgia.

“Kamala Harris is a phony who caters to whatever audience is in front of her,” the Republican said, referencing the “fake southern accent.”

“Now, what the hell is that all about? Kamala Harris grew up in Canada. They don’t talk like that in Vancouver or Quebec or wherever she came from. Doesn’t matter. It’s the same new liberal policies, but a different accent [depending on] whoever she’s talking to.”

The quip comes on the heels of Trump’s own claims that Harris “became black” in recent years to appeal to a wider audience.

The ex-president accused Harris — who graduated from the historically black Howard University in 1986 and was a member of a black sorority — of being a “phony” and a “fake.”

“I’ve known her a long time indirectly — not directly very much — and she was always of Indian heritage and she was only promoting Indian heritage. I didn’t know she was black — until a number of years ago when she happened to turn black,” the 45th president told a black journalist conference in Chicago Wednesday.

“And now she wants to be known as black, so I don’t know is she Indian or is she black … but you know what, I respect either one, but she obviously doesn’t.”

Iranian Jews: 'Take revenge on Israel for Haniyeh assassination'








The Tehran Central Jewish Committee published a letter on Wednesday condemning the elimination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh and called for an Iranian response.

"The murder of Ismail Haniyeh, the head of the Hama's political bureau, in Tehran, constitutes a terrorist crime and a clear violation of international law," the letter opens.

They added that Haniyeh "was one of the standard bearers of the honorable Jerusalem liberation movement, suffered several attempted murders, and dedicated his life to the support and defense of the oppressed people of Gaza. He and several of his family members were killed in terror attacks and now the cowardly and criminal Zionists murdered him in his safe home in Tehran.

One of Haniyeh's Own Bodyguards Played Part In Elimination, Missile Fired From Nearby Building

 

Iranian media outlets are reporting that one of Hamas leader Ismail Hanieyh’s bodyguards is the one who conveyed information to the operatives who eliminated him.

The reports added that the missile fired at Haniyeh was not only fired from within Iran but was fired from a nearby building.

The operatives launched an Israeli-made Spike short-range missile into the room where  Haniyeh was staying at an IRCG “guest house” in northern Tehran.

According to the reports, it is possible that more than one of Hanieyh’s bodyguards assisted the “operatives’ in the elimination.

KHAMENEI ORDERS DIRECT STRIKE ON ISRAEL

 

Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, YM"S has reportedly ordered a direct strike on Israel in response to the assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran, the NY Times reports quoting three informed Iranian officials.

The order was allegedly given during an emergency meeting of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council on Wednesday morning, shortly after the announcement of Haniyeh’s death, said the officials, including two members of the Revolutionary Guards, who requested anonymity as they were not authorized to speak publicly.

Iran and Hamas have accused Israel of carrying out the assassination. Israel, currently engaged in a conflict with Hamas in Gaza, has not confirmed or denied responsibility for Haniyeh’s death, who was in Tehran for the inauguration of Iran’s new president. Israel has a history of targeting its enemies abroad, including Iranian nuclear scientists and military figures.

Throughout the nearly 10-month conflict in Gaza, Iran has aimed to maintain a balance, intensifying pressure on Israel through increased attacks by its regional allies and proxies, while avoiding a full-scale war between the two countries.

In April, Iran launched one of its most significant and overt attacks on Israel in decades, firing hundreds of missiles and drones in retaliation for an Israeli strike on its embassy compound in Damascus, Syria, which killed several Iranian military commanders. However, this assault was anticipated, most of the weapons were intercepted by Israel and its allies, resulting in minimal damage.

Airlines Cancel Flights to Israel Amid Rising Tensions, Stranding Thousands

 

Several major American and British airlines have informed passengers that flights to Israel are canceled due to escalating tensions involving Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran, according to Hebrew media reports.

Delta has reportedly canceled its flights until August 2, while British Airways has done the same. United Airlines has canceled its flights until August 6.

These cancellations have left tens of thousands of Israelis stranded in the United States.

The decisions by United and Delta, the second-and third-largest airlines globally, are expected to lead to similar actions by other airlines, as suggested by some reports.

Chareidie Has Message to the Israeli Roshei Yeshivas schnorring in the USA ... Stay Home! Don't Bankrupt Our Moisdois.. You Came Under False Pretenses!!



I decided to translate the video where this Chusid speaks in Yiddish to the Israeli Roshei Yeshiva Schnorrers! 

I hope I do it justice!!!!

" Two weeks ago, a bunch of Roshei Yeshivah from Eretz Yisrael came to schnoor in the USA! This camapign hasn't stopped and continues to bombard us. Just today I heard that they managed to collect $84 million,  and are still missing some "change" and they claim that the future of Klall Yisrael depends on this!

So what triggered me to speak out? 

You come from a country that only Jews live there, and you have an issue and an argument with your own brothers, so you come to America to grab money from poor people under false pretenses that the future of the Jewish people depend on this!

This isn't true at all, the future of the Jewish people doesn't depend on this! 

You have a "Yissacher/Zevulin" agreement with Chilonim, you learn Torah and they protect you!

The problem with this is that you cannot force a "Yissacher/Zevulin" agreement! A Talmud Chuchim can't walk into your store, grab $2,000 from your register and say I'm the Zevulin and you are the Yissacher ...that doesn't work! Both have to agree to this!

So before you come to Schnoor here in America, why don't you first resolve you issues with your Chilonie brothers?? Why are you depleting our much needed resources when here in the USA it cost us $70,000 in tuitions to educate our children  in our Moisdois?

The "pshat" is that OUR future is in jeopardy, not yours, and you come under false pretenses to collect money when you have the ability to resolve your issues and make peace with  Chilonim?

When was the last time A Rosh Yeshivah  sat with Avigdar Lieberman, when was the last time a Rosh Yeshiva sat with Naftali Bennett? When was the last time they sat with anyone?

We are here on Shiva Asar Be'Tamuz, the destruction of the Bais Hamikdash was because of "Sinas Chinum" senseless hatred, one Jew hated the other Jew. Why on this day, take the opportunity and go to the other side of the aisle and see how you can resolve your issues. 

Everyone knows that these issues with the Chilonim has nothing to do with Torah it has to do with money,and  its all politics! 

So go to your brother resolve your issues and keep learning. Don't come here to America and schnoor over $100 million depleting our resources under your false pretenses that the future of the Jewish people depends on this. This Roshe Yeshiva argument has absolutely no credible beginning or credible end.

The Mishna says "Kol Torah Shein imo Melacha Sofo Beiteilah and Gorress Avoin" Any Torah learned without a source of income will eventually vanish and will bring sin! 

DIN: Well spoken and thought out! He broke it down well and was articulate! Who is this guy? I need him to work for me! 

If any of you fell for this fraudulent campaign and contributed to them, and took your money from maaser, you may want to ask a shaalei if need to replace your maaser fund! 

New Details on the Assassination of Ismail Haniyeh


 He was not staying at one of the famous hotels in Tehran due to security concerns.

Instead, he was staying at a secret location in northern Tehran, where he met his end from a precise missile strike to his room at 2 AM.
Haniyeh was eliminated just 150 meters from the residence of Iran's new president.

Two and a half hours later, the Revolutionary Guards announced his death.

FBI Says that the Trump shooter was violently antisemitic

 

The man who tried to assassinate Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump appears to have posted violent antisemitic and anti-immigration content online as a teenager, a senior FBI official told a US Senate hearing on Tuesday, according to Reuters.

FBI Deputy Director Paul Abbate at the hearing revealed the existence of the social media account, which dated to 2019-2020 - when Thomas Crooks, who authorities have identified as the shooter, would have been 15 or 16 years old.

It is some of the first evidence to become public about a potential motive in the July 13 attack at a campaign rally in western Pennsylvania.

"Something just very recently uncovered that I want to share is a social media account which is believed to be associated with the shooter in about the 2019-2020 time frame," Abbate told lawmakers, adding that more than 700 comments were posted by the account.

"Some of these comments, if ultimately attributable to the shooter, appear to reflect antisemitic and anti-immigration themes to espouse political violence and are described as extreme in nature," Abbate said.

Crooks shot at Trump with an AR-15-style rifle during the rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, wounding the former President' in the ear, killing one rally attendee and wounding two others. Secret Service snipers killed Crooks after he opened fire.

Investigators have described Crooks as a loner with no close friends and a social network limited mainly to immediate family members.

The attempted assassination is the topic of multiple investigations by House and Senate committees, as well as a new bipartisan task force.

On Monday, a special agent said that Trump agreed to be interviewed by the FBI as part of an investigation into his attempted assassination.

Trump said in a subsequent Fox News interview that he expected the FBI interview to take place Thursday.

Israel Strikes Tehran the capital of Iran to eliminate Ismail Haniyeh


The Hamas terrorist organization announced on Wednesday morning that the organization's leader, Ismail Haniyeh, was eliminated in the Iranian capital of Tehran.

Earlier, media outlets in Iran, citing the Revolutionary Guards, reported that Haniyeh and one of his bodyguards were killed in an attack on the home in which they were staying in Tehran.

Saudi media reported that Haniyeh was killed in his bedroom by a precision-guided missile that was launched towards him at 2:00 a.m. Tehran time.

Haniyeh was visiting Tehran in order to take part in the swearing-in ceremony of the new Iranian President, Masoud Pezeshkian, which took place on Tuesday.

In a statement, Hamas blamed Israel for the elimination, saying, "The Islamic resistance movement Hamas mourns its leader Ismail Haniyeh, who died as a result of a treacherous Zionist raid on his residence in Tehran, after participating in the swearing-in ceremony of the new Iranian president."

Hamas political bureau member Mousa Abu Marzouq commented on the elimination of Haniyeh, and said that "the assassination of Commander Ismail Haniyeh is a cowardly act and will not go unanswered."

During the visit to Tehran, Haniyeh met with Iran's Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, among others.

Senior Hezbollah Commander Fuad Shukr Killed In the heart of Beirut

 



The IDF has announced that in a targeted, intelligence-based operation, Israeli Air Force fighter jets eliminated the Hezbollah terrorist organization’s most senior military commander and the head of its Strategic Unit, Fuad Shukr “Sayyid Muhsan”, in the area of Beirut. Fuad served as Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah’s right-hand man and was Nasrallah’s adviser for planning and directing wartime operations.

Fuad Shukr has directed Hezbollah’s attacks on the State of Israel since October 8th, and he was the commander responsible for the murder of the 12 children in Majdal Shams in northern Israel on Saturday evening, as well as the killing of numerous Israelis and foreign nationals over the years.

As the Head of Hezbollah’s Strategic Unit, Fuad was responsible for the majority of Hezbollah’s most advanced weaponry, including precise-guided missiles, cruise missiles, anti-ship missiles, long-range rockets, and UAVs. He was responsible for force build-up, planning, and execution of terror attacks against the State of Israel.

Fuad joined the Hezbollah terrorist organization in 1985 and has since held a number of senior positions. As part of his role, he was a member of the Jihad Council – Hezbollah’s most senior military forum.

In the 1990s, Fuad advanced numerous attacks against the IDF and the South Lebanon Army. In 2000, he was directly involved in the abduction of the bodies of three IDF soldiers – SSGT Benyamin Avraham, SSGT Adi Avitan, and SSGT Omar Sawaid -who were killed by Hezbollah terrorists while patrolling the security fence adjacent to Har Dov. Since then, he has planned and directed numerous terror attacks against innocent civilians.

Saudi researcher Ali Muhammad al-Husseini stated, “I know him very well. Hajj Mohsen is not number two; he is number one in Hezbollah. He is one of the founders and was more important than Imad Mughniyeh. He even preceded Hassan Nasrallah. He is the first senior member of the Hezbollah Jihad Council and is comparable to Hezbollah’s Qassem Soleimani in every respect.”

West Nile Virus Outbreak Continues to Spread in Israel, Death Toll Rises to 51


The Israeli Health Ministry has reported a significant increase in West Nile virus cases, with 738 patients diagnosed and 51 fatalities since the outbreak began in June.

The ministry’s latest update reveals that the majority of those who succumbed to the virus were elderly, with 25 deaths among individuals over 80 years old, 21 between 65-79 years old, and five between 45-64 years old.

The West Nile virus, which is typically present in Israel between June and November, has seen an earlier-than-usual onset this year.

The virus is primarily transmitted through the bites of infected mosquitoes, particularly those that feed on birds, and does not spread from person to person.

According to the Health Ministry, approximately 80% of those infected with West Nile virus will not exhibit symptoms, while around 20% may experience fever, headaches, and body aches. Less than 1% of cases may result in rare complications such as acute inflammation of the brain or meningitis, with the elderly and individuals with weakened immune systems being at a higher risk of severe illness.


 

Trump saying what we are all thinking that Doug Emhoff is “a crappy Jew"

 



Former President Donald Trump in an interview on Tuesday claimed Vice President Kamala Harris, who is married to a Jewish man, “doesn’t like Jewish people” and seemed to agree with a radio host who called second gentleman Doug Emhoff “a crappy Jew.”

Trump, in an interview on WABC radio on Tuesday with prominent Jewish conservative host Sid Rosenberg, claimed Harris looked uncomfortable while meeting last week with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

“You can see the disdain,” he said, adding, “No. 1, she doesn’t like Israel. No. 2, she doesn’t like Jewish people. You know it, I know it and everybody knows it and nobody wants to say it.”

Trump has tried to capitalize on divisions in the Democratic Party over the Israel-Hamas war and sought to paint his political opponents as antisemitic while overlooking some of his own past comments and behavior, such as dining at his Florida club with a Holocaust-denying white nationalist. With Harris replacing President Joe Biden as the likely Democratic presidential nominee, Trump has escalated his attacks on her.

‘WOW’: Elon Musk Posts Video of Kamala, Struggling to Answer Simple Question

 


 Elon Musk re-posted a highly unflattering video clip of Kamala Harris, the presumptive Democrat nominee, in which the Vice President struggled to answer an extremely basic question about the economy.


Captioning the nearly incoherent and cringe-worthy video of Kamala, Musk wrote one simple word: ‘Wow’.

Harris was asked how she will tackle rising inflation. Her response was stilted, and she appeared to struggle for words. She literally replied by stating the problem in a simplistic way, and giving an even more simplistic, barely articulate, solution, suggesting (falsely) that ‘Build Back Better’ helps families pay for things. She trailed off in her own thoughts several times.

Harris said, “Prices have gone up…Families and individuals are dealing with realities that bread and gas cost more. And we have to understand what that means…”

She continued, “That’s about the cost of living going up…about the source of stress for families… But there is also a point that is important to make on Build Back Better…it is designed to make it less expensive…”

The video reaffirms the notion that Kamala may have learned how to be impressive when she is scripted and has a teleprompter, however she is weak on responding to questions off-the-cuff, without being able to read from a script.

Some have called Kamala a ‘DEI hire’, due to the fact that President Biden specifically chose her based on her race and gender, and not based on her qualifications to lead the country. Leftists claim that it is racist to refer to Harris as a DEI candidate, however conservatives have responded that DEI policy is inherently racist, as it implies that minorities are not as capable and are more inferior than white people.

Trump Maintains Lead Over Harris in 2024 Race

 

Despite a dramatic shakeup on the Democratic side of the presidential ticket, former President Donald Trump remains the favorite to win the 2024 presidential election, according to renowned election analyst Nate Silver. Silver’s latest forecast model gives Trump a 61.3% chance of winning the Electoral College, while Vice President Kamala Harris stands at 38.1%.

This analysis comes after a notable shift in the Democratic campaign.Joe Biden unexpectedly dropped out of the race on July 21, endorsing Harris as his successor. This move injected new energy into the Democratic campaign, with Harris’ favorability ratings climbing swiftly and her campaign raising approximately $200 million within a week of Biden’s exit.

Silver’s previous forecast had given Trump a 65.7% chance of victory over Biden. The revised model, which incorporates updated polling averages, still shows Trump with slight advantages both nationally and in most battleground states, except for Wisconsin where Harris leads. Harris’ recent surge is reflected in Silver’s model, which now predicts she has a 53.5% chance of winning the popular vote compared to Trump’s 46.5%.

Silver’s model is described as a “direct descendent” of the FiveThirtyEight election forecast, the well-regarded analytical framework he developed. Following his departure from FiveThirtyEight last year, the platform had forecast Biden as the likely winner in 2024 before suspending its projections after Biden’s withdrawal from the race.

The race between Trump and Harris remains tight as Election Day approaches. The latest RealClearPolitics aggregate of polls shows Trump with a two percentage point lead nationally. However, there is still a lack of comprehensive polling in key battleground states, where the contest is expected to be most fiercely contested.

Litvishi Gedoilim Throw One of their Very Own Under the Bus Because He wants Chareidim in the Army


I just love this. When one of their very own finally wants to break the mold and do something positive for the frum community they eat him alive!

They are panicking because he is one of them, if it was a Daati Leumi or a Chasidishe Gadol they would stay silent but Harav Leibel Shlitah has their number and is openly saying that their derech is unsustainable and is collapsing under its own weight like a cheap cardboard box. They demand that Chilonim support their daycare, because they learn. Let them go to work! 

Rav Landau and the Anglo Hirsch published their Kol Korah in the garbage rag called The Yated! 

I'm wondering isn't this out right Loshon Hara against another Gadol??
