She came to Houston and toured the NASA Johnson Space Center on Friday. While there she did <a href=\"https:\/\/hotair.com\/jazz-shaw\/2022\/09\/10\/kamala-harris-we-have-an-activist-court-n495525\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">an interview<\/a> with one of NBC\u2019s chief Democrat propagandists, Chuck Todd, which aired Sunday morning during <em>Meet the Press<\/em>. On Saturday she delivered a speech at the Democratic National Committee\u2019s summer meeting at National Harbor in Maryland. <\/p>\n<p>Her speech to the DNC was meant to encourage members to support Democrat candidates running for the Senate. She excitedly told her audience that flipping only two seats from Republican to Democrat will allow Joe Biden and Senate Democrats to do whatever they want to do legislatively. That\u2019s enough to send a chill up the spine of Republicans but she\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.msn.com\/en-us\/news\/politics\/kamala-harris-says-she-cant-wait-to-end-senate-filibuster-if-democrats-win-seats-in-midterms\/ar-AA11Gnf4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">quite giddy<\/a> about the possibilities. <\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cWith just two more seats in the Senate, we can codify Roe v. Wade, we can put the protections of Roe in law,\u201d Harris said. \u201cWith two more seats in the United States Senate we can pass the Freedom to Vote Act and the John Lewis Voting Rights Act. Two more seats.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou know, our President Joe Biden, he\u2019s been clear. He\u2019s kinda done with those archaic Senate rules that are standing in the way of those two issues,\u201d Harris said of the Senate filibuster \u2013 . \u201cHe\u2019s made that clear and has said that he will not allow that to obstruct those two issues. And, you know, for me, as vice president, I\u2019m also president of the Senate.\u2026 I cannot wait to cast the deciding vote to break the filibuster on voting rights and reproductive rights. I cannot wait! Fifty-nine days.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Fumbling and bumbling Joe is \u201cdone with those archaic Senate rules\u201d, you see. He\u2019s completely embraced his authoritarian tendencies since moving into the White House and he\u2019s ready to become the Supreme Leader. Joe and Kamala don\u2019t need no stinkin\u2019 Senate rules. She said that Democrats have momentum on their side she insisted that Democrats would keep control of the House and \u201cexpand\u201d its Senate majority. \u201cWe need to hold on \u2014 and we will \u2014 hold on to the House of Representatives and expand our majority in the United States Senate,\u201d Harris said. <\/p>\n<p>Then she went on to present <a href=\"https:\/\/www.msn.com\/en-us\/news\/politics\/kamala-harris-says-she-cant-wait-to-end-senate-filibuster-if-democrats-win-seats-in-midterms\/ar-AA11Gnf4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">two scenarios<\/a>. It\u2019s all doom and gloom if Democrats don\u2019t sweep the November mid-term elections. <\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cOn that point, allow me to lay out two very real scenarios for you. First, imagine \u2014 I don\u2019t want to \u2014 but imagine if we lost our Democratic majority in the Congress. Republican Party leaders have made it clear they want to ban abortion nationwide and they won\u2019t stop there,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p>Harris insisted that \u201cmarriage equality\u201d and \u201ccontraception\u201d will be \u201con the line\u201d if Republicans retake the majority of Congress.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWithout a Democratic majority in Congress, who knows what other rights they will come after,\u201d Harris questioned. \u201cNow, imagine a better future. Imagine what we can do if we defend the five seats we need to hold onto the majority in the House. Imagine what we can do if we protect, and better yet, expand our majority in the Senate. Imagine. We can then fight to ensure every worker has paid family leave. We can fight to ensure every family can afford childcare, we can fight to ensure every childcare provider is paid fairly, also.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Those big bad Republicans are gonna deliver this country to hell in a handbasket, according to our deep-thinking vice-president. Democrats already hold majorities in the House, the Senate, and they hold the White House. Because they are the party in charge, voters will hold them accountable in November for whatever issues matter most to them. In my opinion, it will be kitchen table issues, the issues we all face everyday, like food and gas prices, inflation, interest rates rising, a slowdown in the real estate market, the open southern border, violent crime spikes in cities across America, and the list goes on. There is also the anniversary of the disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan which will take decades, if ever, to recover from. The closer to November we get, the more shrill and angry Joe Biden becomes in his speeches, blaming \u201cMAGA Republicans\u201d for all the evil in the world. He doesn\u2019t seem to realize that by criticizing that group, he criticizes all Republican voters. In the last presidential election, that was over 74 million people. Biden may have gotten the most votes of any presidential candidate but Trump got the second most votes in history. Does Biden think putting more than 74 million voters into a basket and calling them deplorables will end well for his party in November? We\u2019ll know soon enough.<\/p>\n<p>Kamala may be trying to play good cop to Creepy Joe\u2019s bad cop on the campaign trail. She\u2019s playing Polly Positive to get out the vote while declaring old Joe won\u2019t put up with that pesky filibuster in the Senate. <\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>During a speech in Durham, North Carolina, this month, Harris offered similar comments on the Senate rule, saying Biden would \u201cnot let the filibuster get in the way\u201d of passing legislation that is meaningful to his agenda.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>We\u2019ll see if this works for them. Both Biden and Kamala are a hot mess when it comes to delivering remarks. Joe goes from a normal tone, to screaming, to that creepy whisper of his and Kamala serves up word salad on the regular. No one knows what either of them is saying. It\u2019s probably best that way.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/hotair.com\/karen-townsend\/2022\/09\/11\/kamala-just-cant-wait-to-end-the-filibuster-if-democrats-win-the-senate-in-november-n495720\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kamala Harris has been front and center in recent days.
