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

I'll be tweeting clips from @PatrioticMills's "How to Beat the Broligarchs" event this morning in this thread as part of my partnership with @SnapStream. Follow along!

Elizabeth Wilkins: "People are looking for different ideas. The bad version is that an undermining of people's faith in democracy leads to authoritarianism. The good version is that we get together to think about what we need in terms of power the ideas and the people to create a new common sense -- one that brings us back for the modern era to that marriage of democracy and capitalism, where democracy shapes markets for the public good."

@PatrioticMills @SnapStream Patriotic Millionaires founder Erica Payne: "Here's what happened. Doesn't matter who's in charge. Tax rates for the rich always go down."

Maria Bartiromo on a weaker than expected February jobs report: "The jobs picture is weakening. Weaker than expected jobs again in the month of February tells you that the Fed is gonna cut rates!"

BARTIROMO: We've got a meeting coming up. Does anyone on this panel think the Fed is gonna cut rates at the next meeting?

STEPHEN MOORE: Well, I don't think they should. I just don't see a case for lower interest rates right now. We still have inflation at the 3-4% range.

BARTIROMO: True

Bartiromo: "It would be Biden's recession."

Wyden: "Mr Kennedy has embraced conspiracy theories, quacks, charlatans, especially when it comes to the safety and efficacy of vaccines. He has made it his life's work to sow doubt and to discourage parents from getting their kids lifesaving vaccines. It has been lucrative for him."

Sen. Roger Wicker: "This nomination is unconventional, just like that New York developer who rode down the escalator in 2015 to announce his candidacy for president. That may be what makes Mr. Hegseth an excellent choice."
