President Donald Trump claimed Senator Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) will show “how incompetent she is” after news outlets reported that she will lead the Democratic opposition to his Supreme Court pick.
Joe Biden’s campaign has released a series of new ads targeting Black voters in key swing states. The ads will run nationwide as well as online and will feature prominently in the swing states of Florida, Michigan, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania.
President Donald Trump claimed Democrat Joe Biden’s “handlers and the Fake News Media are doing everything possible to get him through the Election” in another jab at Biden’s mental fitness. The president further claimed that Biden would resign, leaving his running mate Kamala Harris the opportunity to take the helm.
Senator Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) delivered a tribute to victims of the September 11 attacks and the first responders who came to their aid in remarks at a memorial ceremony in Fairfax, Virginia.
“Let us also remember that honoring them is also about reminding us of who we are as Americans,” Harris said. “Because in times of tragedy, in times of despair, in times of suffering and pain, we, by our very nature as who we are, stand together. We stand together.”
Not too long ago, Megyn Kelly was sitting on top of the world. She had parlayed her massive ratings at the Fox News Network into a $69 million dollar deal with NBC News.
The network gave Kelly 3 different roles, with her talk show being an abject disaster. In January of 2019, the journalist was let go by NBC in disgrace after commenting on the appropriateness of costumes featuring black-face.
Democratic vice presidential candidate Kamala Harris said that Russian election interference could cost Joe Biden the White House.
The Biden/Harris campaign will release a new ad discussing police violence against Black Americans on Thursday. The ad will air in crucial swing states two months out from the election.
The ad, entitled “We’re Listening,” features former Vice President Joe Biden and his running mate Senator Kamala Harris talking about race and policing in the United States.
Donald Trump has repeatedly declared himself the “law and order” candidate, wearing this mantle proudly. At last week’s Republican National Convention, the array of speakers trumpeted this slogan again and again as the dominant chord of Trump’s otherwise ill-defined policy platform.
Kamala Harris gave a powerful answer when asked about the Jacob Blake shooting on Friday, while Pence and Trump didn't mention it at the GOP convention.
The father of Jacob Blake says he spoke to Joe Biden and Kamala Harris and found their words comforting as his son lies in a hospital bed following his shooting in Wisconsin.
Jacob Blake Sr. told CNN’s New Day on Friday that he welcomed his conversation with the Democratic presidential candidate and his running mate.
Blake was asked if President Donald Trump had been in touch.
“That’s a negative,” Blake said.
“I talked to Joe Biden and Kamala Harris for an hour on the phone,” Blake revealed, going on to refer to them as President and Vice President.
“They were so comforting that you almost forgot
how the situation was really playing out
Democratic vice-presidential candidate Kamala Harris obliterated Donald Trump in a speech where she painted him as a selfish, scared, failed president.
Kamala Harris has blasted Republicans for trying to exploit the Coronavirus pandemic to suppress the vote in November’s elections. The Democratic senator has called out Donald Trump’s own double standard on mail-in ballots.
The vice presidential candidate wrote an op-ed in Wednesday’s Washington Post marking the anniversary of the passage of the 19th Amendment, which gave some women the vote.
She discussed the limitations of that amendment but also highlighted the ongoing attacks on American’s ability to vote.
“We know what we have to do to fulfill the promise embodied in the 19th Amendment: We need to pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Act, support automatic and same-day voter registration and help fund secure state voting systems,” Harris wrote.
“And that is what Joe Biden and I will do when we’re in the White House.”
“But change cannot wait until then,” she urged.
“Republicans are once again doing everything in their power to suppress and attack the voting rights of people of color. They are deploying suppressive voter ID laws, racial gerrymandering, voter roll purges, precinct closures and reduced early-voting days.”
Harris then linked the ongoing pandemic to efforts at voter suppression.
“And this year, Republicans are also spending millions on every scare tactic and trick in the book,” she said.
“Most visibly, they are doing what they can to take advantage of a pandemic that the president cannot, or will not, get under control.”
She went on to call out the “double standard” of the President voting by mail while railing against the practice.

Is Trump the 2020 candidate who best represents the American working class? Did the Democratic Party fail to encompass working-class interests, issues, and people at last week’s convention?
What does the working class think?
Kamala Harris had a message for Trump and the country that was impossible to miss. She said, "I know a predator when I see one."
Donald Trump launched a stunning attack on Joe Biden and Kamala Harris on Monday, claiming the Democratic presidential ticket would introduce fascism from the left.
The President made the remarks to supporters in Minnesota. He openly called the former Vice President and California Senator fascists.
Trump said Biden is a “puppet of left-wing extremists trying to erase our borders, eliminate our police, indoctrinate our children, vilify our heroes, take away our energy.”
A Biden presidency will “replace American freedom with left-wing fascism,” he said.

Bernie Sanders wanted Kamala Harris on the Democrats’ presidential ticket, according to a new report. The Senator believes Harris will help Joe Biden win the election.
A new report from Bloomberg claims that Sanders has acted as a unifier in the Democratic Party since his defeat in the primaries. The story suggests he was instrumental in picking Senator Harris for the VP slot.
“
Sanders acknowledged that he and Biden have differences on policy but said the Democratic nominee would still make progress on Sanders’s goals, from universal health care to raising the minimum wage,” Bloomberg reports.
It was a week of contrasts between the democracy we have and the tyranny Donald Trump is trying to build on the ash heap of what use to be America.
Enter Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, representing the America we are, where people seek a more perfect Union. All people regardless of skin color, citizenship, how they pray or who they love are recognized as human beings worthy of respect and dignity. It’s a place where character and honesty matter. The law applies to everyone the same way whether they exercise power every day or once every two years.
Speaking to Fox News host Jesse Watters, former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin (R) claimed the media dislikes conservatives voices and has a double standard regarding Senator Kamala Harris (D-Calif.), who this week was named as Joe Biden’s running mate in the presidential race.
“I don’t know if it’s so much a gender thing …” Palin told Watters during an appearance on his show, “Watters’ World.” “It’s like what Trump faces all the time. It’s three against one: you have the Democrat Party, you have the media and you have the RINOs in your own party that are always, always trying to clobber you.”
White House senior adviser Jared Kushner did not outright reject a conspiracy theory his father-in-law, President Donald Trump, ignited about Senator Kamala Harris (D-Calif.), who this week Democrat Joe Biden announced would be his running mate in this year’s race for the White House. The president had suggested that Harris may not “meet the requirements” to run for office, implying she is not a United States citizen. Harris was born and raised in California.
“Do you accept that Kamala Harris is a qualified candidate?” CBS’s Anthony Mason asked Kushner earlier today.
“I personally have no reason to believe she’s not but again my focus for the last 24 hours has been on the historic peace deal,” Kushner replied.
“She was born in Oakland, California,” Mason said..
“Yeah,” Kushner said.
“That makes her a qualified candidate,” Mason said. “Why didn’t the president take the opportunity to debunk that theory?”
“I have not had the opportunity to discuss this with him,” Kushner said, “but I’ll let his words speak for himself.”
