The Awkward Kamala Harris Interview

I watched it so you didn't have to. Here's what happened in under 5 minutes.

🧵 THREAD Image
Kamala Harris's first interview as the Democratic nominee just dropped, and she brought in VP pick Tim Walz to comfort her.

Remarkably, it took her less than a minute to bring up Donald Trump, claiming Americans are ready for "a new way forward" and that it’s time to "turn the page" on Trump.

What she failed to mention is that she's literally been in power for 3.5 years.
Then something remarkable happened. CNN unexpectedly asked a good question, pressing Harris on economic issues.

Bash brought up Harris's campaign slogan, "We're not going back," and asked, “I wonder what you say to voters who do want to go back when it comes to the economy, specifically because their groceries were less expensive, housing was more affordable when Donald Trump was president.”

Harris’s response fell flat.
But the questioning didn't stop there. Bash put Harris on the spot over her shifting stance on fracking.

Harris had previously stated in 2019, "There is no question I'm in favor of banning fracking," but now she claims, “I made that clear on the debate stage in 2020 that I would not ban fracking as vice president.”

Ummm… what?

Bash pushed back on Kamala a second time, reminding her that she previously said she was in favor of banning fracking.
Then came the question about the border crisis—a glaring issue for the Biden-Harris administration.

When Bash asked why it took three and a half years to implement asylum restrictions amidst record illegal border crossings, Harris didn't hesitate to shift the blame to Trump.

Yes, this really happened.

Her administration has had nearly four years to address the border, and yet she circles back to Trump as the scapegoat.
Bash questioned Kamala on Trump’s allegations of “turning black” for “political purposes.”

After a long and awkward pause, Kamala replied that Trump’s using the “same old tired playbook” before saying, “Next question please.”

This is actually a new play that Trump developed for Kamala Harris specifically.
Tim Walz finally got his first question when his claims of serving in war crumbled on air.

In a 2018 video clip, Walz said: "We can make sure that those weapons of war, that I carried in war, is the only place where those weapons are at."

The truth is that Walz has never served in a war.

And when confronted on it, Walz dodged the question before blaming his misleading statement on poor English.
Then, the most important question of the night dropped. CNN’s Dana Bash asked Harris if she had any regrets about hiding Biden’s cognitive decline from the public.

Kamala said with a straight face, “No.”

Remarkably, she continued to gaslight the public even more by saying Biden is "smart" and has the "intelligence" and "judgement" to serve as president.

Next, came the most painful moment to watch of the night.

Kamala Harris broke down in tears when she recalled the day that Joe Biden told her that he was dropping out of the race.

She continued to tell an elaborate story of how she was eating breakfast when it happened. Skip this video unless you think you can handle it.
In the final moments, Kamala attempted to quell the concerns of every doubter who’s called her a “DEI hire.”

“Listen, I am running because I believe that I am the best person to do this job at this moment for all Americans, regardless of race and gender."
Thanks for reading! If you made it all the way to the end, you’re a champ.

For something a little less painful to get through, check out my thread on RFK Jr. His latest interview with Dr. Phil will literally blow your mind.

Howard Lutnick just marched Trump’s economic agenda straight into enemy territory—CNN.

Dana Bash tried to play economist and corner him with the usual “tariffs hurt Americans” script.

But Lutnick didn’t flinch.

He pushed back hard—and dropped a stat so staggering, even CNN couldn’t spin it.

🧵 THREADImage
👆And, as always, remember to bookmark this thread.

Lutnick just dismantled the CNN narrative live on air.

Let’s roll the clips and break it down.
Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick came to CNN with a warning—and a number that stopped the conversation cold.

We cannot afford to continue with the status quo.

“America has a $1.2 trillion trade deficit,” he said.

“That means other people are selling US goods, more than we are selling them. And that’s just not balanced. It’s not fair.”

He didn’t stop there.

“We’re losing $1.2 trillion a year, of which directly and indirectly to China. That’s about $1 trillion.”

For Lutnick, this isn’t just an economic figure—it’s a threat to the country’s long-term strength.

“It’s just unsustainable for $1.2 trillion to be exported to the rest of the world… it’s building them up, and over time it’s taking us down.”

That, he explained, is why President Trump is turning to tariffs, not as punishment, but as leverage.

“The idea is the president wants balanced and fair trade, and tariffs are the tool to create balanced and fair trade.”

Vaccines didn’t end infectious disease—engineers did.

Clean water, working plumbing, and the end of sewage in the streets did the heavy lifting.

Then vaccines swooped in and took the credit.

But what about polio? You won’t believe how they sold that miracle to the world.

This report breaks down the biggest lies used to push vaccines—and what really made all those polio cases disappear.

@MidwesternDoc It all starts with propaganda.

The vaccine agenda isn’t driven by science—it’s driven by public relations.

PR firms use psychology, emotion, and repetition to program the public. Their goal? Manufacture your consent.

This is how they made toxic shots “safe and effective.” Image

Bill Maher just took a flamethrower to woke Democrats and their anti-American base.

He says they’re doomed if things don’t change soon.

Not only did Maher say the American flag is being disrespected—he delivered a brutal reality check to a certain group of activists.

The Left wasn’t ready for this.

🧵 THREADImage
📌 Before we roll the clips, make sure to bookmark this thread so you can share it with a liberal friend later.

Some people need a reality check, and Maher dropped a good one here.
The show opened with an interview with David Hogg, the youngest person ever elected as a DNC vice chair.

David is not someone most conservatives agree with on much, but he dropped a surprisingly good take on why Democrats are bleeding voters.

The answer? They’re no longer the party of fun.

He got a huge reaction from Bill Maher after saying Democrats need to reconnect with young men who just want to “get laid and have fun” without walking on eggshells.

He said the parties have flipped. Democrats are now the snobs who judge your every move, whereas Republicans are much less rigid.

“What I think happened last election is younger men—they would rather vote for somebody who they don’t completely agree with, they don’t feel judged by, than somebody who they do agree with, that they feel like they have to walk on eggshells around constantly because they’re going to be judged or ostracized or excommunicated.”

And because of that, young men are walking away.

“Nobody is perfect. But ultimately, what we have to do here is figure out how to bring people back in and work towards the bigger goal of advancing the future of this country and helping young people especially get by, so that they’re able to focus on their lives and getting with a young woman or something like that, instead of how are they going to pay their rent, for example, or how are they working their two jobs.

“Young people should be able to focus on what young people should be focused on, which is how to get laid and how to go and have fun.”

Maher clapped, stood up, and shook Hogg’s hand after that comment.

REPORT: Trump has reportedly CUT OFF communication with Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu over “manipulation concerns.”

This move sends a clear message: Trump will not be pushed around—not by foreign leaders, not by war hawks, not by anyone.

It also confirms what we’ve been reporting for weeks:

There’s a growing rift inside the Trump administration between those pushing for war with Iran and those (like Trump) who are determined to pursue diplomacy.

And right on cue… Fox News suddenly gets handed an “exclusive” report about a previously undiscovered Iranian nuclear facility.

The timing couldn’t be more convenient.

@HarrisonHSmith joins the show to discuss. This is a massive development that nobody's talking about.

In other news, a former U.S. housing official says the government secretly built a $21 TRILLION underground city for the ultra-wealthy to survive a “near-extinction event.”

This was revealed by Catherine Austin Fitts on Tucker Carlson’s podcast.

Tucker asked her what the purpose of such a city would be. Fitts replied: “The purpose is if you thought you were going to get a near-extinction event.”

Her claims were corroborated by Michigan State University economist Mark Skidmore, whose team uncovered $21 trillion in undocumented federal spending between 1998 and 2015.

So the question remains: What exactly are they preparing for, and why hasn’t the public been told?

This raises way more questions than answers.

This was a SMACKDOWN.

The media came to the White House press briefing today armed with networks talking points.

They came to spin, smear, and sabotage Trump’s latest moves.

But Karoline Leavitt was ready—locked, loaded, and armed with the truth.

She didn’t just clap back…

She torched their entire narrative on live TV.

🧵THREADImage
👆And don’t forget to bookmark this thread—because what you’re about to see is a masterclass in media narratives crumbling in real time.

These moments won’t make it to the mainstream.

Let’s break it down.
The media onslaught began the moment Karoline Leavitt opened the floor at the White House press briefing.

One reporter wasted no time, suggesting Trump’s upcoming trip to the Middle East was less about diplomacy and more about personal business.

He hasn’t even landed in Saudi Arabia, the U.A.E., or Qatar—but they were already implying he was using the presidency for private gain.

“Is the president planning to meet with folks involved with any of the family businesses over there?” the reporter asked.

Leavitt cut the question off before it could gain steam.

“Not to my knowledge,” she said.

Then she fired back at the entire narrative.

“I think it’s frankly ridiculous that anyone in this room would even suggest that President Trump is doing anything for his own benefit.”

She reminded the room what Trump gave up to serve the country—twice.

“He left a life of luxury and a life of running a very successful real estate empire for public service. Not just once, but twice.”

And she made it clear why the American people sent him back to the White House.

“The American public reelected him back to this White House because they trust he acts in the best interests of our country and putting the American public first.”

Leavitt then highlighted what the media never admits:

“This is a president who has actually lost money for being president of the United States.”

She ended with a pointed comparison.

“I don’t remember these types of questions being asked of my predecessor about a career politician who was clearly profiting off of this office.”
