There are two ways to be fooled. One is to believe what isn’t true; the other is to refuse to believe what is true. —Soren Kierkegaard. "…truth is true even if nobody believes it, and falsehood is false even if everybody believes it. That is why truth does not yield to opinion, fashion, numbers, office, or sincerity–it is simply true and that is the end of it" – Os Guinness, Time for Truth, pg.39. “He that takes truth for his guide, and duty for his end, may safely trust to God’s providence to lead him aright.” – Blaise Pascal. "There is but one straight course, and that is to seek truth and pursue it steadily" – George Washington letter to Edmund Randolph — 1795. We live in a “post-truth” world. According to the dictionary, “post-truth” means, “relating to or denoting circumstances in which objective facts are less influential in shaping public opinion than appeals to emotion and personal belief.” Simply put, we now live in a culture that seems to value experience and emotion more than truth. Truth will never go away no matter how hard one might wish. Going beyond the MSM idealogical opinion/bias and their low information tabloid reality show news with a distractional superficial focus on entertainment, sensationalism, emotionalism and activist reporting – this blogs goal is to, in some small way, put a plug in the broken dam of truth and save as many as possible from the consequences—temporal and eternal. "The further a society drifts from truth, the more it will hate those who speak it." – George Orwell “There are two ways to be fooled. One is to believe what isn’t true; the other is to refuse to believe what is true.” ― Soren Kierkegaard
NEW YORK, NY — All eyes have turned toward the New York mayoral primaries, as a new poll indicated that a second edition copy of The Communist Manifesto now holds a sizeable lead over other Democratic Party candidates.
Though incumbent Mayor Eric Adams and former Governor Andrew Cuomo have maintained their share of support, the second edition of The Communist Manifesto surged in popularity due to how closely it matches the values and ideals held by a vast majority of Democratic Party voters.
“It says all the right things,” said one Democratic voter after casting her ballot for the manifesto. “We have always leaned toward the more progressive candidates, but nothing comes close to how far this manifesto is willing to go. The more I read what it says, the more I want this document to be the leader of New York City. Let’s stop beating around the bush with these other candidates and go straight to the source of our party’s platform.”
A spokesperson for The Communist Manifesto welcomed the growing support. “This is the candidate that best represents New York Democrats,” said the campaign’s press secretary. “The second edition of The Communist Manifesto has been standing up and promoting the thoughts and views of Democrats for years, so it’s only right for it to take its rightful place as mayor of New York City.”
At publishing time, analysts were projecting the second edition of The Communist Manifesto to secure the party’s nomination for the general election and coast to an easy victory in the general election before furthering the city’s descent into third-world ruin.
These British police officers are keeping the streets safe from dangerous weapons.
For years, Democrats have sounded the alarm that Republicans are a threat to democracy. But when you peel back the rhetoric, it looks a lot like projection.
Senator Bernie Sanders (Vt) recently agreed that his own party has become a “threat to democracy.” In a recent interview, Sanders acknowledged that the Democratic primary process has been unfair since at least 2008. In 2016, the Democratic National Committee selected Hillary Clinton over Sanders, leading to allegations of a rigged primary. In 2020, despite a crowded field, the party quickly coalesced around Joe Biden, effectively shutting down competition. Then, in 2024, Vice President Kamala Harris was selected as the nominee without a primary.
While accusing Republicans of undermining democracy, Democrats in their controlled legislatures, judicial positions, media positions, and state offices have implemented systems and policies that undermine election integrity.
Former Ohio Secretary of State Ken Blackwell detailed in his column “The Greatest Electoral Heist in American History” how Democratic officials weakened, altered, and eliminated laws designed to preserve election integrity. He highlighted how Mark Zuckerberg funded a “charitable” organization working with Barack Obama’s senior advisor David Plouffe, pouring over $400 million into assisting officials in Democratic strongholds on how elections were to be conducted. The media, of which over 90% say they are Democrats, have set the bar for leftist propaganda and negativity toward anything conservative. Look at the lawfare.
Consider voter ID laws. As of 2025, 15 states do not require voter identification to cast a vote for president. These states account for 207 of the 270 electoral votes needed to secure the presidency. Notably, these states traditionally vote for Democratic presidential candidates.
Additionally, 27 states and the District of Columbia allow ballot drop boxes, with most of these voting Democratic. Mail-in and voter roll issues in states like Georgia, Arizona, and Washington, DC, during the 2020 election enabled Democrats to gain another 30 electoral votes. This brings the built-in electoral vote advantage to 288 of the 270 needed to elect a president. In contrast, 12 states specifically prohibit ballot drop boxes, and these states tend to vote or lean Republican.
Let’s connect the dots. The same Democrats who claim to be democracy’s last defense:
Refuse to hold real primaries
Gut election laws without legislative approval
Accept tech money to “train” partisan election worker
Eliminate voter ID
Maintain bloated voter rolls
Rely heavily on unsecured mail-in ballots and drop boxes
Control states that collectively exceed the 270 votes needed to win the presidency.
It’s no coincidence that states are essentially Democratic strongholds.
Proverbs 17:15 says, “He who justifies the wicked, and he who condemns the just, both of them alike are an abomination to the Lord.”
It’s not democracy they’re defending—it’s power. Republicans, and Americans for that matter, allowing this charade is, say it with me…Stupidocrisy.
Hoover Institution Senior Fellow Victor Davis Hanson said on Newsmax Wednesday that President Donald Trump’s counter-revolutionary tactics might disrupt the Democratic Party for generations.
Trump’s current counter-revolutionary tactics include a comprehensive policy overhaul targeting diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs across federal institutions, dismantling the Department of Education and reversing policies established under earlier administrations. During an appearance on “Finnerty,” Hanson said President Trump is a fundamentally different kind of leader, one who is reshaping the Republican strategy.
“I don’t think they understand Donald Trump. He is not George W. Bush. He’s not a Mitt Romney. He’s not a John McCain. He’s not satisfied to just slow down the growth of the administrative state and neo-socialism,” Hanson said. “He’s a counter revolutionary. Yeah. And he’s saying economically, politically, socially, militarily, this country has gone way to the left, and I’m going to bring it back to the center. And that’s so disruptive.”
WATCH:
Hanson went on to say that the Democrats’ current lack of significant political power — being without the Supreme Court, the Senate, the House, and the presidency — leaves them with limited tools.
“They didn’t think any Republican had the courage or the gumption to do that. And he does. He’s serious. And now they’re thinking, ‘My God, the guy is really serious. He could really disrupt us for a generation,’” Hanson said. “And we’ve got to stop him at any means necessary. We don’t have the Supreme Court. We don’t have the House. We don’t have the Senate. We don’t have the White House. We didn’t win the popular vote. We didn’t win the Electoral [College], but we don’t have political power other than the street and our mouth.”
Hanson did not mince words in describing the ongoing struggles of the Democrats, who, despite recognizing the factors diminishing their public appeal, continue to escalate their rhetoric and actions.
“Normally any party would self-correct. They did that after George McGovern. They did it after Jimmy Carter, and they went full centrist with Bill Clinton, or at least they feigned centrism. But this is unusual that they know what’s killing them, and yet they double down on it,” Hanson added. “It’s almost like a mixture of, I guess I’d call it smut chic all the way down to terrorist porn, because they’re cutting videos where senators are saying S-H-I-T, or they’re calling Elon Musk a D-I-C-K, or A-S, this horrible, this smut language.”
Hanson said Democrats’ increasingly provocative media tactics surprise everyone.
“So I don’t think there’s a bottom to it. There should be, but each day surprises all of us if they get more and more pornographic, more and more smutty, and more and more participating, wink and nod, with terrorism.”
Hanson’s remarks come as tensions flare on both sides of the aisle. In a recent House Oversight Subcommittee hearing on the funding of NPR and PBS, Democratic Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett lashed out at Republicans with a string of expletives, expressing her discontent under the chairmanship of Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene.
In an attempt to further oppose Trump’s agenda, a coalition of national Democratic organizations, including the Democratic National Committee, Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, and the Association of State Democratic Committees, launched the “People’s Town Halls” tour. They are focusing on Republican-held districts across the U.S., following significant Democratic Party losses in the 2024 elections where Republicans took control of the White House and both congressional chambers.
Democrats have formed a resistance to oppose Trump’s policies, specifically targeting the Department of Government Efficiency led by Elon Musk, which has cut the number of federal agency employees.

It’s a dark time to be a progressive. But it’s the Thanksgiving season, which means it’s time to be thankful to whatever non-specific deity or power you believe in. Let’s try to keep up that spirit of gratitude by reminding ourselves of these ten things libs can still be thankful for:
Trump will probably only be in office for another 30 years. — Max.
You can run Kamala again against J.D. Vance next time. — In fact, we encourage it.
We still get Biden as president for another two months. — 60 more days of utopia.
There’s still time to move to a foreign, socialist country like Canada or California. — Better hurry.
You can still watch your DVD copies of The West Wing. — President Bartlet’s shoulder is always available for you to cry on.
Although we’ll be under a fascist dictatorship, avocado toast will be cheaper. — A small comfort to live during the Fourth Reich, but hey, it’s something.
You’ll only have to wear your handmaid outfit while you’re outside. — It won’t be mandatory indoors for another six months.
Be thankful for all the good memories we’ve made, like when Lizzo campaigned for Kamala, or when she was all “brat” and stuff. That was cool. — Or remember Beyonce? Or when Kamala went on that sex podcast? Man. That was fun.
PowerWash Simulator. — This fun game is available on most major video game platforms for a reasonable price. You just power wash stuff. Very relaxing. Gets your mind off the fact that Hitler is in office. Let’s be thankful for the little things.
When Trump reveals himself as the Antichrist and kicks off seven years of tribulation, you’ll be able to smugly tell your Republican friends, “I told you so.” — Their tears will be delicious.
We hope these ten things will get you through the next four years. What else can libs be thankful for? Scream them at the sky now.
DOGE is here, and Elon and Vivek will eliminate millions of government positions
With the news that Kamala Harris’s campaign somehow ended up $20 million in debt after raising over $1 billion in donations, critics have started to wonder: how on earth did her campaign spend that billion dollars? Our crack investigative team at the Bee has gone to work and can now share a line-by-line breakdown of where all that money went:
$70 million for accent coaches: In retrospect, probably shouldn’t have used Foghorn Leghorn.
$500,000 for Lizzo’s catering: That’s a lot of hoagies.
$70 million for surgery to re-attach Tim Walz’s arms every time they flew off: Not bad, honestly.
$10 million for NFL coaches to try to teach Walz how to talk about football: Must have been the Jets’ coach.
$900,000 for Harry Sisson’s puberty blockers: Harry goes off those, even that dude might wind up Republican.
$0 for valor for Tim Walz: Stolen!
$200 million trying to build that shrinking gun from Honey, I Shrunk The Kids so Kamala seems taller: Looking back, platform shoes may have been a wiser investment.
$37.50 for speechwriter: Yeah, this checks out.
$19 million for filming that gross commercial where an old Republican man tells some kid he can’t watch porn: We don’t want to talk about it.
$ 5 million for Gen Z graphic designers to write “Kamala HQ” in Arial font on a green background: For Gen Z, this was a steal.
$5 million for Doritos: Those gas station chips are pricey.
$500 for coloring books to keep Joe Biden busy: Honestly, really should have set aside more for this.
$600 million on wine: That’s on boxed wine, people. Boxed!
$30 million for the rights for Tim Walz to sing “Single Ladies” at rallies: Totally worth it.
$500,000 on punching bags for Doug Emhoff: Ouch.
Well, it all adds up. Money well spent.
BIG NEWS: We made a movie, and you can watch the trailer NOW:
WASHINGTON D.C. – In the wake of their crushing defeat in the 2024 presidential election, Democrats have begun to call for abolishing the popular vote.
“Look, it’s 2024 and I think it’s time to let go of this antiquated and undemocratic idea of a ‘popular vote,'” said U.S. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. “Our democracy is simply too fragile to just award the Presidency to whoever wins the most votes. We must come up with an alternative, like maybe a college of electors.”
Democrats warned that the counting up the number of votes to see who received more was textbook fascism. “Democracy cannot survive in a system where you add up votes, because people could vote for fascists. Voting is how democracy dies,” explained Democratic Senator Adam Schiff. “Voting is how we got Trump, and now our country is dead, again. It’s time to protect democracy by eliminating voting altogether.”
At publishing time, Democrats proposed that future Presidential elections should instead be decided by a 38-year-old barista named Tina, who lives in the suburbs of Chicago.
BIG NEWS: We made a movie, and you can watch the trailer NOW:
WASHINGTON, D.C. — As Americans continue to wait in line to cast their votes today, several prominent Democrats have stepped forward to remind the country that an election winner may not be declared until 110% of the vote is done being counted.
According to Democrat Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, Americans should be prepared to wait until election authorities finish counting and double-counting all 110% of the votes cast today.
“In order to support a stable and secure electoral situation, we all need to remember that counting all 110% of the votes could take quite some time,” Schumer reminded voters. “This is completely, totally normal and certainly not a cause for any concern whatsoever. Just everybody simmer down and wait patiently.”
Several other prominent Democrats, including Rashida Tlaib, Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez, and Nancy Pelosi have supported Schumer’s comments, asking that all Americans wait until all the correct votes have been counted.
At publishing time, Democrats had also reminded everyone that voting in border states might take a little longer than usual so that undocumented migrants can all get a chance to vote as well.
BIG NEWS: We made a movie, and you can watch the trailer NOW:
Will we even know who won on election day? Democrat-run states and counties are threatening to drag out their vote counting for days. But let’s look at eight specific cases where there have been voting controversies that could drag out the election. Remember, there is only one way to guarantee that the election is decided quickly: IF IT’S NOT CLOSE, THEY CAN’T CHEAT.
Election Day is accompanied by some major voting controversies in battleground states, with lawsuits and investigations looking into alleged voter registration fraud, overseas ballots, and complaints about how some jurisdictions follow election law.
Both Democrats and Republicans brought lawsuits.
Some matters already have been settled. For example, the U.S. Supreme Court sided last week with Virginia by allowing the state to remove the names of 1,600 noncitizens from the voter rolls. And in Pennsylvania, Republicans successfully sued to extend early voting hours.
However, courts tossed other election cases on procedural grounds or cases remain unsettled and could prompt arguments in close elections.
Here are eight issues to look out for, both on Election Day and after.
And here are the eight controversies:
Voter Registration in Pennsylvania
Undelivered, Duplicate Ballots
Overseas Mail Ballots
218,000 Arizona Voters With No Proof of Citizenship
Georgia Ballot Centers
Nevada Postmarks
Iowa and Noncitizen Voting
Unsent Mail Ballots in Georgia
My read on the election is that whoever wins Pennsylvania will win the election. I don’t see Trump winning either Wisconsin or Michigan, and especially Michigan. But Pennsylvania could go either way.
So let’s take a look at the two Pennsylvania stories:
At least four jurisdictions in Pennsylvania are investigating potential voter registration fraud.
State prosecutors in Pennsylvania’s Lancaster County are investigating two batches of about 2,500 voter registration forms that may include several hundred fraudulent forms.
As of Monday afternoon, the Lancaster County District Attorney’s Office had determined that 17% of the forms were fraudulent. Another 57% were determined to be legitimate, WPMT-TV (Fox 43) reported. The rest were still being investigated.
York County officials also are investigating potential voter registration fraud. Of a batch of 3,087 forms, about 24% were declined after being found to be duplicate requests.
York County also is reviewing challenges to 350 overseas mail-in ballots.
And the Monroe County District Attorney’s Office last week identified fraudulent voter registration forms. A specific number wasn’t given and the investigation continues, the Pocono Record reported.
Berks County also referred two potential voter registration violations for investigation.
And this one:
Republicans lost three federal lawsuits regarding a law called the Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act, which governs how Americans living overseas can vote in federal elections.
The GOP lawsuits over UOCAVA focused largely on nonmilitary overseas voters, many of whom indicated no intention to return to the United States.
Six Republican members of the U.S. House sued Pennsylvania over the state’s counting procedures. The GOP lawmakers’ complaint says that about 15,000 nonmilitary American voters living abroad but casting ballots in Pennsylvania elections should have to provide the same personal identification as Pennsylvania residents.
But U.S. District Judge Christopher Conner determined last Tuesday—one week before Election Day—that an injunction could “upend the commonwealth’s carefully laid election administration procedures to the detriment of untold thousands of voters.”
Michigan Court of Appeals Judge Sima Patel ruled against the Republican National Committee’s challenge to rules in the U.S. law. The RNC challenge was based on nonresidents’ dependents who live abroad voting in state elections. Patel ruled that the GOP lawsuit was an attempt to “disenfranchise” voters.
Similarly, North Carolina Superior Court Judge John Smith ruled that the RNC challenge “presented no substantial evidence” of fraudulent voting.
I think that the fact that Pennsylvania is run by Democrats who will be counting the votes gives Kamala Harris the edge.
Historian Allan Lichtman has suggested that the apparent gender gap in swing state early voting could be a “huge advantage” for Vice President Kamala Harris.
[…]Lichtman broke down data from early voting in the all-important swing states from NBC News’ early voting tracker.
It showed that in Michigan 56 percent of early voters were women and 44 percent were men. “That’s huge,” the American University professor said.
In Wisconsin the figure was 51 percent women and 43 percent men, while in Pennsylvania it was 56 to 43 percent.
“So we’re talking about anywhere between an eight- and 13-point gap between men and women,” Lichtman said.
“And, presuming the gender gap holds, that means a huge advantage in these states.”
Young women are passionate about their right to end a pregnancy using violence. And sadly, older women have not taught them that it’s wrong to do that. So, if young men don’t balance out the election with Republican votes, then I think that the Democrats will win this election. They will win the battleground states, and that will do it.
I enjoyed watching Pearl interview these Democrat voters in Green Bay, Wisconsin, and you can really hear what their main concern is – it’s abortion rights.
I’m just not seeing much passion from people on the right in general. I’m the only one in my subdivision with election signs out. It’s strange because I have enough money saved that I can retire early, and I’ll be OK. But the people who have children – they are the ones who will be in real trouble. Their children will be stuck with the bill for all this government spending. They will be slaves, working so that their masters – the selfish adults of today – can live high on the hog. I just don’t understand why people who will be the most impacted are doing less than I am to stop the socialism.

Governor Tim Walz is as guilty as Cuomo of killing the elderly in his state during COVID.
Earlier this week, we learned that former New York governor Andrew Cuomo was being recommended for criminal prosecution related to his actions and responses under oath surrounding his actions during the COVID pandemic.
Cuomo deserves much worse.
His policies of mandating the placement of COVID-19 patients back into nursing homes and other extended care facilities were deadly.
Thousands of elderly Americans died in New York as a result of this policy.
Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Walz faced fierce criticism for putting sick COVID patients into nursing homes during the height of the pandemic — even doubling down on his decision when the facilities accounted for a staggering 81% of his state’s pandemic deaths.
Walz had other insane policies during COVID, but he never took any blame.
Never Forget! Covid is a political virus. Walz blamed South Dakota, Florida and republicans in Wisconsin for covid cases in MN. He refused to condemn or even apply pressure to casinos. pic.twitter.com/cuZgaz3jDy
Walz also thought it was a good idea to shoot paintballs at citizens during COVID.

Walz also set up a COVID snitch hotline during COVID—the communist way.

Tim Walz and Andrew Cuomo were two Democrat governors who forced COVID into nursing homes. They had to know this was a deadly move. Data in March 2020 showed that the elderly were high-risk, yet these Democrat governors move sick individuals into the nursing homes.
Using COVID to kill the elderly in their states was an evil and deadly policy. The Democrat governors who did this, like Walz and Cuomo, should be held accountable for their actions.

U.S. — With Americans participating in early voting in record numbers and millions more preparing to head to the polls on Tuesday, the nation anxiously waited to see which side would be denying election results.
Though the country remained deeply divided on a wide range of issues, Americans from across the political spectrum were eager to see which party would be left refusing to accept the outcome of the hotly contested presidential race.
“It’s so suspenseful not to know which side will reject the new president,” said Fox News political commentator Brit Hume. “It’s the most exciting part of every presidential election now, waiting to see which side will say the election was rigged and stolen. Will it be Russia’s fault? The Dominion voting machines? Republicans suppressing urban voters? Democrats illegally stuffing ballot drop boxes? We’re all waiting with bated breath to find out next week.”
In what has become one of the nation’s most beloved traditions, families made plans to gather around the television on Tuesday night to learn which party would launch a crusade to accuse the other side of cheating. “It’s part of the fabric of America,” said voter David Megli. “I can’t wait to wake up early Wednesday morning, run downstairs with my kids, and see what fresh political chaos was left for us overnight. It’s as American as baseball, apple pie, and hating Canada.”
At publishing time, crowds of election denial enthusiasts had already begun gathering outside the Supreme Court for the inevitable election challenges.

President Trump Participates in a Roundtable at the Latino Summit in Doral, Florida – October 22, 2024
President Trump will participate in a roundtable discussion with Latino leaders this morning in Doral, Florida, which will be centered on the failed policies of Biden and Harris.
“With President Trump, the Latino community has a champion committed to tearing down the barriers preventing minorities from achieving the American Dream. In stark contrast, Harris has utterly failed them–failed to secure their neighborhoods, failed to raise real wages, and failed to bring down record high prices,” reads a statement from the Trump campaign.
In addition, President Trump will likely discuss the consequences of Kamala’s border crisis and Kamala’s placement of illegal aliens over natural-born Americans and legal immigrants.
President Donald J. Trump, 45th President of the United States of America, will participate in a roundtable with Latino leaders on Tuesday, October 22nd, 2024, at 11:00AM EDT.
With President Trump, the Latino community has a champion committed to tearing down the barriers preventing minorities from achieving the American Dream. In stark contrast, Harris has utterly failed them–failed to secure their neighborhoods, failed to raise real wages, and failed to bring down record high prices. Under President Trump’s leadership, the Hispanic community thrived. They saw record-low unemployment, record-high homeownership, and the lowest poverty rates in history. For the first time ever, median real income for Hispanic households soared past $50,000. Nearly 350,000 Hispanic Americans were lifted out of poverty, and real wages for Hispanic men grew by 3.9 percent. Under Trump, Latino household wealth skyrocketed by an astounding 65 percent.
The Latino community knows that President Donald J. Trump is the only candidate who can bring prosperity back to America. That’s why they’ll turn out in record numbers on November 5th to vote for him to be the 47th President of the United States.

Harmeet Dhillon/Image: Video screenshot @TuckerCarlson/X
San Francisco lawyer Harmeet Dhillon, who’s known Kamala Harris for more than 20 years, joined Tucker Carlson to break down Harris’s entire career history.
Her verdict? Harris is a criminal.
Tucker Carlson: So you are roughly a year younger than Kamala Harris, but in the same generation, you’re an attorney. You’re from San Francisco. You first ran into Kamala Harris in 2003, 21 years ago. You know everyone in her orbit. You live in the same world. And so, with less than two months to go before the campaign, I thought it would be interesting to hear the perspective of someone who actually knows a lot about Kamala Harris’s life. There aren’t don’t seem to be many of those. So thank you for doing this. Who is Kamala Harris? Exactly.
Harmeet Dhillon: Well, you see the words karma chameleon and, you know, nicknames like that applied to her today. Yes. And she really has been kind of a shapeshifter throughout her entire career and existence. I would call her in some ways a survivor. You know, she’s had a number of different environments sort of growing up in Oakland to two university professors as a small kid. And then after her divorce, her mom took her and her sister, Maya, to Canada, where she went to high school and then started college there. Yeah. And then she, you know, came as almost an adult to the United States and went to Howard University and sort of immersed herself in that culture of the predominantly black college. And then she came to San Francisco, where she went to Hastings in the Tenderloin area of San Francisco. So educationally, she’s kind of traveled all over the United States, but-
Tucker Carlson: She spent her high school years in Canada.
Harmeet Dhillon: Yes. Spent her high school years in Canada and, you know, not in San Francisco. And so I think one of the interesting things that I found when looking at her background is the first time she registered to vote was at age 29. So really? Yeah, so many years after coming to the United States and during the year that she dated our former mayor and speaker Willie Brown is the year that she registered to vote. And so connecting the dots, it seems like that might be the time when she decided that politics is in her future because, you know, she began to create a voting record and and setting down budgets.
********
Harmeet Dhillon: You know, you’re pandering to a particular element of society. I think eventually Democrats have wanted to legalize all of the illegal aliens in the country. That’s not a secret. Now, they tried to lie about it in the past, but today that’s a campaign promise of hers, that she wants to legalize all of these illegal aliens in the country and get their votes. So it’s a long term vote recruitment program by these folks. But look, you can’t forget the detail.
Tucker Carlson: She’s the insurrectionist.
Harmeet Dhillon: She’s the insurrection.
Tucker Carlson: Overthrow the United States government and system and destroy democracy and invalidate our founding documents or core freedoms. I mean, that’s all those are all species of insurrection. It would seem to me she sounds like a criminal.
Harmeet Dhillon: Well, she’s broken a lot of laws over the years just in the, you know, white-collar laws. But she’s enabled hundreds, if not thousands of criminals to go on to commit violent crimes and even even fatalities. And there are police officers in San Francisco who lost their lives because Kamala Harris was soft on the criminals who went on to kill them as one of their dozens of offenses there.
There’s a long trail of victims in San Francisco and now California who have suffered because of Kamala Harris’s soft on crime policies. And she’s lied about it and gotten away with it.
And it’s kind of incredible that someone who failed, who increase the murder rate by many percentage points, who prosecuted almost no violent crimes in San Francisco during the many years she was a district attorney.
She she failed up to becoming the attorney general, where she went on to violate the rights of criminal defendants on a much more massive scale. But even before that, Tucker, one of the interesting incidents is in the last two years of her race, of her tenure as district attorney, she was embroiled in a major scandal involving the systematic violation of criminal defendants rights.
And in San Francisco and the drug lab, there was a drug technician who was supposed to test the drugs, and this person was sampling the drugs, taking them home and sampling them and also making numerous errors. This was an open secret in the district attorney’s office. So after, you know, people mentioned it on numerous occasions, judges chastise the district attorney’s office. Eventually, a top manager in the office sent a cover your ass email to Kamala Harris saying, ‘Hey, by the way, I think the head of this drug lab section is actually taking drugs and regularly violating protocols and handling evidence.’
Kamala Harris, instead of doing her immediate duty as a district attorney to inform all defense counsel in all the cases in which this lab technician had handled the drugs for testing, she sat on it for a period of three months, and it only came out not through Kamala Harris disclosing it. And so the judge in that case, Christine Mozilo, excoriated the district attorney’s office.
Now, by this time, Kamala Harris had been the district attorney for six years. In the six years she was the district attorney, she created no protocol for disclosing to defense counsel, this what’s called a Brady violation, a violation which is so massive that you have to disclose to the other side that there’s been a potential due process violation that could be exculpatory. So she got in trouble for that. She went on after that two years later to become the attorney general of California.
So there’s literally no accountability for, by some accounts, 1400 cases, either convictions or pending cases had to be dismissed in San Francisco because of this due process, violation of the rights of the accused.
******
Harmeet Dhillon: Well, you know, again, we go back to the Constitution. And when I look at this election, Kamala Harris has shown herself over all of her decades of public service exactly who she is. She’s someone who is ruthless, who has ignored the law when it benefits her, who is even ignored as a guardian of the law, the Constitution repeatedly, the rights of the accused? Yes, the rights of the wrongfully convicted, the rights of the citizens she has sworn to defend, and those laws that she is sworn to uphold. She has ignored them when convenient. And I think that’s. Particularly when you take on the mantle of ‘I’m the top cop and the borders are…. I’m the prosecutor. I’m America’s top law enforcement person.’
It’s scary that that person wants to be the number one person with the most power in the free world. And so that’s what’s at stake in this election. So it isn’t about mean tweets, it isn’t about style.
It’s about what country we want in the next four years.
Watch:
Harmeet Dhillon is a San Francisco lawyer who’s known Kamala Harris for more than 20 years. Her verdict: Kamala Harris is a criminal. Here are the details.
