I'm going to put together a thread covering Kamala Harris's Fox News interview with Bret Baier. Follow along for clips and commentary.

Baier's first question to Kamala Harris presses her on undocumented immigration. Baier barely lets her get a word in.

Baier is really going for blood here. Harris does a nice job standing her ground.

the first 10 minutes of Baier's interview are him just trying to score gotchas on Harris on immigration

after grilling Harris for more than 10 minutes about immigration, Baier pivots to playing a transphobic Trump campaign ad for her and asking her to respond. Harris says, "He actually has no plan in this election that is about focusing on the needs of the American people."

Harris does a nice job landing attacks on Trump when Baier lets her complete a thought

Kamala Harris on Fox News: "Let me be very clear: My presidency will not be a continuation of Joe Biden's presidency."

BAIER: What are you turning the page from?

HARRIS: First of all, turning the page from the last decade in which we've been burdened by the kind of rhetoric from Donald Trump designed to divide our country

Kamala Harris on Fox News on Trump: He's unfit to serve. He's unstable. He's dangerous. And people are exhausted.

Baier tries to bait Harris into saying something bad about Trump supporters. Shameful stuff from him. Harris has a great response.

WOW -- Kamala Harris forcefully calls out Bret Baier for playing a deceptive clip whitewashing Trump's comments about "the enemy within"

Harris on concerns about Biden's decline: I think the American people have a concern about Donald Trump which is why the people that know him best have all spoken out & said he's unfit & dangerous & should never be POTUS again including his former VP which is why the job was open

BAIER: Critics say that you relaxed or failed to enforce sanctions on Iran

HARRIS: Let's go back to Trump who pulled out of the deal that would've actually put Iran in check and it was under Trump that we had an American military base that was attacked

That's it for Kamala Harris's Fox News interview with Bret Baier, which mostly felt like Baier's audition to become Trump's White House communications director
