New in PJ Media:
Last summer, after Old Joe Biden was forced out of running for reelection and Kamala Harris was anointed as the Democrat candidate for president, the far left’s propaganda arm (that is, the establishment media) made a massive push to make this failed vice president and longtime party hack seem new and appealing. A key part of this effort was a gaggle of young “influencers” who took to Instagram and TikTok with an enthusiastic pro-Harris message. It was sincere, it was spontaneous, it was exciting — or at least that’s what it seemed to be. Now (I know, knock me over with a feather) it turns out that the whole thing was faked: the entire Harris bubble was the artificial creation of a bunch of leftist billionaires.
RealClearInvestigations blew the whistle on this astroturfing enterprise in a lengthy exposé on Monday, detailing concerted efforts to portray Harris as if she had “Gen Z-friendly hipster appeal.” This involved “influencers” making “neon-matcha green pro-Harris videos synced to beats from singer Charli XCX’s album ‘Brat’ released last year,” as well as flooding the interwebs with “memes celebrating Harris as the voice of queer and black youth, in contrast with the Republican agenda of white supremacy.” Yeah, not only did they create a fictional Harris, but they conjured up a fake opposition to her in the bargain.
The campaign went heavy on sexual excess, with a heavy helping of hysteria: “Digital creator Amelia Montooth, in one viral TikTok video, kissed a woman and tried searching for pornography, actions her sketch suggested would be banned if Harris lost the election.” Apparently presenting Harris as the porn candidate wasn’t enough, and so “another TikTok and Instagram series backed by the donors, called ‘Gaydar,’ featured interviews quizzing people on the streets of New York City about gay culture trivia with little election-related content,” but the pro-Harris subtext was unmistakable.
Then there was a caravan featuring “an inflatable IUD” that traveled to Philadelphia, Washington, Raleigh, St. Louis, and elsewhere. “The tour, which featured content creators producing posts along the way, was designed to bring attention to claims that Trump would ban contraceptive devices.” Yeah, of course he would.
Harris never quite gelled as the front woman for twenty-first century amorality; RealClearInvestigations notes that she was “a career politician favored by the Democratic Party’s establishment,” and so “never quite fit the bill as an icon of activist movements.” But this wasn’t for want of trying: “the sudden influencer buzz seemed to transform the stodgy former prosecutor into an icon of the cultural zeitgeist.”
There was plenty of money available for this quixotic effort. All the Harris fake enthusiasm and sexual libertinism fearmongering was “quietly funded by an elusive group of Democratic billionaires and major donors in an arrangement designed to conceal the payments from voters.”
There is more. Read the rest here.

A news feed headline of yesterday, claimed that bo didn’t really support the cackler, as she didn’t have what it takes. I didn’t read the article…I’ve had more than enough of those two evil fakers. I didn’t wish to have any.

The reason Biden pick cacklers as VP was because of Obama .Biden was Obama’s puppet ,Obama was the one who told Biden after he look like a nursing home escapee at the debate it was time for him to step down. If cackles won she would be Obama’s puppet also .she is smart and capable as a box of hammers running anything never mind being president. All of Biden’s cabinet picks ,his woke policy was Obama pulling the strings. That is my opinion, I could very well be wrong ,Biden went from pushing strong jail sentences for drug crimes talking about turning our schools into “jungles” by bussing as a Senator and being the BFFL to a grand cyclops Senator Bird .Biden will pick any political side he thinks will win with .!

She was an easily controlled party hack. Just what the New World Order’s Dictators wanted.
Unfortunately, she was an incompetent, illiterate clown also…
I wonder if there is a connection!?
WPM says
She also was as likeable and relatable as a canker sore to the average middle class voter in America .She did check the right DEI boxes ,and was elected to some position in California in the Bay area. A place where the majority of people who live there would vote for a tree stump then a republican .I think a dead rotten tree stump is more likeable and smarter then Harris that is my opinion ,but the majority of people in this country did vote for Trump over her .Maybe she could run in 2028 ..’for President and make it a lock the Republicans’ can take that one too. Harris voicing how much she loves school buses ,diagrams ,all her many :”cool ” fake accents ,her cackling ,nervous laughing when stumped by simple questions ,her women of a thousand facial nervous ticks when doing an interview with the press even if was given the questions before the interview . Those moments where gold according to the MSM she was crushing it .She was going to make America great for boozing ex-mistresses’ of elected officials who sleep with the right persons get their political foot into the door.
OLD GUY says
One thing these major donors had right was if they could get her elected they would have total control over her lame brain.

It Was All Fake: Far-Left Billionaires Astroturfed the Tidal Wave of Early Enthusiasm for Harris
…………………….
I must say I am not surprised. Even here is Oakland–blue as blue can be, and neighboring Berkeley, the enthusiasm for Harris was not all that great–mostly just voting against Trump. I think most here would have prefered Biden.
