Vice President Kamala Harris said on Sunday that "people in Gaza are starving" and called for "an immediate ceasefire" as part of a hostage deal between Israel and Hamas. Why it matters: Harris' remarks were the Biden administration's most comprehensive recognition of the suffering in Gaza and strongest appeal for a ceasefire. They come as the Biden administration urgently pushes for a ceasefire and hostage deal before the holy month of Ramadan begins on March 10. "Given the immense scale of suffering in Gaza, there must be an immediate ceasefire for at least the next 6 weeks. This is what...

Vice President Kamala Harris is reportedly working to fix the Biden campaign strategy — nine months from election day. Harris, whose favorability rating is worse than President Joe Biden’s, appears to be positioning herself as an alternative if he decides not to run for reelection before the Democratic National Convention (DNC). A majority of voters say there is no chance they would vote for Biden in 2024, a recent CNN poll found. The convention is the only feasible route Harris could take to replace Biden, 81. Politico reported a three-step process: Biden Must Voluntarily Step Aside Before Democratic National Convention...

Anyone else notice how the media has suddenly found Kamala Harris and is presenting her as a serious VP(they hope President)? During the past few days I have seen 5x the stories that I usually stories about her.

On February 15, 2024, the day after the Kansas City Chiefs’ parade shooting, Vice President Kamala Harris reiterated the false claim that gun violence is the No. 1 killer of children. Harris used a post to X to say, “Gun violence is the number one cause of death for children of America—not some form of illness or car accidents.” She made this same claim in July 2023, and Breitbart News fact-checked the claim, noting numbers from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) show firearm-related deaths for children aged 0-17 were 2,281 in 2020, while the number of motor...

JUST IN - Kamala Harris says she is "ready to serve" as Biden faces age scrutiny — WSJ

Vice President Harris has launched a community number, which will allow Americans to text her and receive information about her work, her office announced Friday. The community number is the first time in history that all Americans can text a vice president, according to her office. “As Vice President, I’ve traveled our nation and met so many of you. I’m inspired by your stories, work, dreams, and aspirations — and I want to keep our conversations going. Starting today, you can text me at 310-861-2977.

Vice President Harris will travel to Munich, Germany, for an annual gathering on international security issues as a White House push for aid to Ukraine and Israel has stalled in Congress. Harris will attend the Munich Security Conference for a third consecutive year, attending the event from Feb. 15-17, her office announced. While there, she will deliver a “major foreign policy speech” and meet with foreign leaders to discuss the situations in Ukraine and the Middle East. “Throughout her engagements, the Vice President will underscore the importance of sustaining U.S. leadership, strengthening our alliances and partnerships, and defending international rules...

Vice President Kamala Harris spoke of a post-conflict Gaza built around a revitalized Palestinian Authority (PA) with its own security forces “strengthened” as she entered a round of diplomatic talks with Arab leaders on Saturday. Speaking at the COP28 climate summit in Dubai, she also cautioned Israel to do more to protect Palestinian civilians from the “devastating” bombardment.

Kamala Harris attacked Israel over its conduct of the war with Hamas in Gaza in remarks made Saturday at the COP28 climate summit in Dubai, saying, “too many innocent Palestinians have been killed.” The criticism comes as the Biden administration is facing enormous political pressure by the Hamas wing of the Democratic Party with reports of Arab Muslims and progressives in swing states including Michigan saying they will not vote for Biden-Harris in the 2024 election because of the administration’s support for Israel. Biden went through a struggle session with Arab Muslims at the White House on October 26 in...

during a speech on Thursday, Vice President Kamala Harris praised Australia’s strict gun control laws, which include a ban on automatic and semi-automatic firearms and a mandatory buyback program that removed nearly 700,000 privately-owned firearms from circulation in the 1990s. “In our country today, the leading cause of death of American children is gun violence. Gun violence has terrorized and traumatized so many of our communities in the United States,” Harris said. “And let us be clear, it does not have to be this way – as our friends in Australia have demonstrated.” Unlike in the U.S., Australian citizens do...

In an interview with a Pennsylvania news station, Kamala Harris explained that “climate anxiety” is deterring “young leaders” from buying homes, as well as having children....KamalaAs the Free Beacon points out, what is preventing young people from buying homes is skyrocketing interest rates, which are entirely the fault of the federal government, primarily the Biden administration. It’s just one more consequence of Bidenflation.But I would add this: if there is someone out there who could buy a house, but refrains on account of “fear that it might be wiped out because of extreme weather occurrences,” whose fault is that? Hurricanes...

President Joe Biden has tapped Kamala Harris to lead his gun violence prevention office, giving his vice president yet another task for her packed portfolio. Biden will formally announce his decision in a ceremony in the Rose Garden on Friday afternoon. Harris will oversee the office. Stefanie Feldman, a longtime Biden aide who has worked on gun policy for more than a decade, will serve as its director. Harris, a former prosecutor and state attorney general, has years of experience on the issue. But the vice president now has some of the nation's highest-profile policy issues on her plate -...

Vice President Kamala Harris appeared stunned by a question from CBS host Margaret Brennan, who wondered if she was taking the possibility of another Donald Trump presidency "seriously enough." Harris looked taken aback, pausing before responding, "I don’t understand the question." "You were dismissive of some of the Republican criticism of you and the president. When you look at current polling, the frontrunner for the Republican nomination is the former president, the 45th president," Brennan added on "Face The Nation." Harris insisted that President Biden and her would win re-election, adding that there is "too much at stake." "The American...

SEATTLE — Vice President Kamala Harris created some unintentional irony on Tuesday, during her brief stop in Seattle. She appeared at the McKinstry warehouse in a gymnasium that was not air conditioned, and of all things, talked about the weather. Her fans, were without fans, and sweated through their suits and dresses to hear her talk about climate change. “Every day around the world, the impact of the climate crisis is stark, and it is vivid. We are seeing it in real time,” said the vice president, as part of a 13-minute speech that was centered on the Biden Administration’s...

CHICAGO, Aug 11 (Reuters) - U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris jumped into another divisive American issue ahead of the 2024 re-election campaign on Friday, vowing support for activists trying to end gun violence and accusing gun law opponents of "hypocrisy." Harris, who has embraced a more combative role as President Joe Biden's re-election campaign kicks into gear, took a swipe at Republicans who have blocked Democrats' proposed gun safety laws, saying such changes are no threat to Americans' constitutional gun rights. "There are some people who are just trying to sell a false choice ... that you're either in favor...

Vice President Kamala Harris spoke Friday to volunteers of the Mike Bloomberg-affiliated Everytown for Gun Safety and claimed that gun violence is a “disease” that requires the passage of more gun control. Harris began her comments by falsely claiming that “gun violence is the leading cause of death of the children of America.” She made this same claim in mid-July, at which time Breitbart News did a fact check and explained that the claim was false. Numbers from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) show that firearm-related deaths for children aged 0-17 totaled 2,281 in 2020, while the...

A truly nasty "fact check" from Politifact targets the imbecilic veep. With Joe Biden’s physical and mental health an obvious issue, his and sex and race-driven choice of Kamala Harris as his veep is worrisome for the less delusional Democrats. They know that the prospect of her inheriting the presidency might scare away some voters from a ticket headed by a then-80 year old in 2024, or if, God forbid, Biden’s life were cut short after the nominating convention, they would be stuck with an obviously imbecilic candidate. But Biden, or those who pull his puppet strings, seems to be...

In recent weeks, Vice President Kamala Harris has dashed off to Florida on short notice. She sparred with the state’s conservative governor, Ron DeSantis, over how to teach slavery in schools. And she flew into Iowa to defend abortion rights while 13 Republican presidential candidates were having dinner a few miles away. Although her words were directed at Republicans, her message was also aimed at all her doubters. Once a rising star as a senator in California, Ms. Harris has for years been saddled by criticism of her performance as vice president. She has struggled with difficult assignments on issues...

Imagine if Gavin Newsom was currently Vice President amid the final meltdown of the Biden family consortium. Does anyone doubt that Biden would then either be forced to resign by Democratic politicos (for reasons in addition to his escalating dementia), or would be impeached and perhaps abdicate Nixon-style? The presence of the now predictable mediocrity of Kamala Harris and the impossibility, given her race and gender, of removing her, for now is about all that keeps a cognitively declining Biden still in office. The Left fears what she could do as president to the Democratic Party; conservatives are terrified of...

During an interview with ABC News that aired on Monday, Vice President Kamala Harris responded to reports that she has the lowest approval rating of any Vice President by stating that while there are some polls out there “that also say I have great approval ratings.” We have to point out “that there are attempts to create distractions away from the accomplishments of our administration” on the economy and “what we have done to restore America’s integrity on the international stage.” Host Linsey Davis asked, [relevant exchange begins around 8:28] “There are reports that say that you have the lowest...
