New in PJ Media:
Around a year ago this time, Old Joe Biden was still the Democrats’ candidate for another term of pretending to be president, but after his disastrous debate with Donald Trump and increasing indications that he was non compos mentis, there was growing concern about his cognitive abilities and whether it was wise to have him even as the figurehead-in-chief for another four years. Vice President Kamala Harris, however, crudely brushed aside such concerns, despite the fact that was soon going to turn out to be their primary beneficiary.
The New York Post reported Monday that Harris angrily “demanded that Democratic governors worried about Joe Biden’s mental acuity fall in line behind the commander-in-chief.” They had to do so, she courteously explained, because, in her words, “this is about saving our f**king democracy.” Oh, brother. Did Kamala Harris actually believe her own party’s propaganda about how Orange Man Bad posed a mortal threat to “our democracy,” a phrase they always used with no acknowledgment of the fact that the United States is a constitutional republic, not a democracy?
When they referred to “our democracy,” Democrats always meant “our hegemony,” and Kamala Harris, of all people, should have known that very well. The real threat to our free society came from the Biden-Harris regime, in which she was supposedly a principal player. The Biden regime tried to establish the abortive Disinformation Governance Board, which would have policed speech that dissented from the leftist establishment’s perspective. The regime also sicced the FBI on angry parents protesting at school board meetings, worked with Twitter (X) and other social media giants to silence and deplatform people with opposing views, and even sent spies into Catholic churches to keep tabs on pro-lifers.
As vice president, Kamala Harris must have known that all that, and more like it, was going on. And yet she still had the audacity to unleash the F-bomb at Democrats who were concerned about Old Joe’s condition, and to give the impression that she was really afraid that Trump would install himself as some kind of fascist dictator, in line with the most febrile of the left’s fever dreams.
One person who bought this was New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D-Planned Parenthood), “who proceeded to incorrectly tell reporters on the White House driveway following the July 3, 2024, confab that ‘all of us said we pledged our support’ to Biden.” Or else, apparently.
Other Democrat apparatchiks among the governors who heard Harris’ warning, however, were less credulous. Authors Isaac Arnsdorf, Josh Dawsey and Tyler Pager, who have written a new book about the Dems’ 2024 election debacle, observe that “many of the governors were deeply skeptical that Biden could continue his campaign, and they were furious with Hochul for suggesting otherwise.”
There is more. Read the rest here.

Her power is gone. Even in California, Democrat hopefuls for governor are not scared of running against her. Given her performance both in the primaries in 2019 and the general last year, anybody should be able to trounce her easily: she’s a complete intellectual lightweight, despite being a former DA of San Francisco & AG of the state
OLD GUY says
Kamala was the almost perfect DEI hire for DA and AG. The only problem was she lacked intelligence as she was probably a DEI college graduate also. She also made a good DEI Vice President, she didn’t have a clue about what was going on and those in charge could lead her around like a little puppy.
David M says
What a charade, it was proven during old Joe’s sham of a Presidency Cackling kamala & Old Joe don’t like each other. Crawl back under the rock you are living under Kamala.
Jerome from Layton says
“Word Salad” Harris defending Clueless Joe? Give me a break! But, I can see a scary combination of her and pencil neck Schiff in the Senate. For those hoping for “the Big One”, no such luck. San Andreas is a strike/slip falt with the West side just slipping to the North. Something like rearranging the deck chairs.
