HAHA:
Why wouldn’t a press conference help Kamala win?
After all, she has a flawless record, superb and wide-ranging policy, a sophisticated understanding of geopolitics, a profound comprehension of economics,
And wit, charm, intelligence and charisma

BEING INTERVIEWED USED TO BE A ROUTINE PART OF RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT:
Serious advice for Kamala: Do the presser/live interview. The longer it's pushed off, the more anxious she will become & the more weight will be attached to it b/c of all the avoidance. Speaking of pushing off, her body language is all "Back off, stay away." Not a good look. pic.twitter.com/dHn1gUUa3f

SADLY, THIS IS BELIEVABLE:
"Allegedly, the American delegation presented a list with the names of ten Mossad agents within Iran whom the Americans believed were involved in the assassination, directly or indirectly."
If this is true, if the Biden-Harris administration did this, then Israel should withdraw…— Caroline Glick (@CarolineGlick) August 14, 2024
Wrecking intelligence cooperation with Israel, in order to suck up to the Iranians, while in consequence leaving the U.S. more vulnerable to a terror attack, sounds par for the course for this administration.

YEP. IN FACT, SEEING ROMNEY TREATED LIKE HITLER RADICALIZED A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO WENT ON TO SUPPORT TRUMP.
Oh please. Romney visited a school in Philly and was met with vicious protests. This is revisionism. If he was the nominee today you and 90% of black voters would find an excuse not to vote for him. https://t.co/Mj8zR3NFNt

Well, of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris’s making, really.
ANALYSIS: TRUE.
Of course it is. But you are about to witness the emergence of an all-new and improved Harris, unburdened by what has been. The media hosannas will be deafening. https://t.co/n0p2jXYiOY

A PROBLEM FOR U.S./CHINESE WAR: You Can’t Go to War with Your Factory. “As a Southerner, going to war against your own industrial center is a Lesson Learned, and yet here we are.”
TO BE FAIR, WHEN IT COMES TO DAILY LIFE, MOST EVERYTHING’S BEEN GETTING WORSE SINCE ABOUT 2008: I Reviewed Restaurants for 12 Years. They’ve Changed, and Not for the Better.
Many of the little routines of dining that we used to handle by talking to a person now happen on a screen. When we go to Shake Shack, we order and pay for our burger and frozen custard on a screen. In some places, we enter our names on the waiting list for tables on a screen. We scan QR codes so we can read the menu on a screen. Restaurants are turning into vending machines with chairs.
Before we walk in the door, we’ve usually made a reservation on a screen. You could still make reservations by phone in 2012. Many places were on OpenTable by then, but if you didn’t feel like using it or couldn’t find a time you wanted, you picked up the phone, and your call would usually be answered by a human. Pleasantries were exchanged. Polite phrases were used: Please. Thank you. I’m sorry. We look forward to seeing you.
2008 was a triple whammy: Smartphones, the financial crisis, and Obama. America was beginning to recover when Covid struck, though the harm we suffered came more from the official response to Covid than from Covid itself. What’s next?

EXACTLY:
There are some journalists letting harris speak all kinds of falsehoods and there appears to be few in the mainstream legacy media fact checking all or any of her info.
it is though the entire legacy media has become a platform for Harris to come out and say whatever she wants. https://t.co/rAw0VGxFN5— ZitoSalena (@ZitoSalena) August 12, 2024
A SMALL MEASURE OF ACCOUNTABILITY: Cornell student sentenced to 2 years in prison for threats against Jews.
DISCIPLINE AND PUNISH: Arrest warrants issued following anti-Semitic vandalism on Temple University Jewish fraternity. “A Jewish fraternity at Temple University in Philadelphia has been vandalized multiple times by anti-Israel individuals who damaged property and left anti-Semitic messages behind. . . . On Aug. 12, the university posted another update to the situation, stating that it had obtained arrest warrants for two individuals connected to the anti-Semitic vandalism.”
Felony charges.
