Harris Has Enough Virtual Votes To Be Democratic Nominee
"A staffer for Philadelphia Mayor Cherelle Parker 'accidentally posted' a video meant to be released next week which reveals Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro as Kamala Harris' running mate...... as Owens also suggested - this could be an 'accident' which serves as a trial balloon, and Harris could go in a different direction. Shapiro notably canceled fundraising events in New York this weekend and is likely to meet with Vice President Kamala Harris as she works to pick a running mate. Meanwhile, Shapiro has come under fire from women's groups after his administration settled a sexual harassment claim against one of his longtime aides for $300,000."

Trump Rips Kamala Harris for Questionable Claim She Worked at McDonald’s
"Trump ripped incumbent Vice President Kamala Harris over her questionable claim she once worked at a McDonald’s.
During an appearance Friday at a Moms for Liberty Convention in Washington, DC, Trump told the audience, “She also said, ‘I worked at McDonald’s.’ Turned out she didn’t work at McDonald’s.” “Did anyone see that?” he added. “After an exhaustive study that took about 20 minutes, they found out she never worked there.”

Trump Campaign: ‘Inappropriate’ to Schedule Debates Until Harris Nomination Official, Democrats ‘Could Still Change Their Minds’
"The Trump campaign said on Thursday it would be “inappropriate” to schedule presidential debates so long as the Democrats have any confusion about their prospective nominee. “Given the continued political chaos surrounding Crooked Joe Biden and the Democrat Party, general election debate details cannot be finalized until Democrats formally decide on their nominee,” said the statement."
House Passes Resolution Condemning Kamala Harris’s ‘Failure’ as ‘Border Czar’ with Support from Six Democrats
"The House passed a resolution introduced by Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) that condemns Vice President Kamala Harris’s “failure” as what they referred to as “border czar” with support from all Republicans and six Democrats. Those six House Democrats who voted for the resolution are:Rep. Yadira Caraveo (D-CO)
Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX)
Rep. Don Davis (D-NC)
Rep. Jared Golden (D-ME)
Rep. Mary Sattler Peltola (D-AK)
Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (D-WA)
Vice President Kamala Harris is not just a failed border czar — she is an extremist on border security and immigration enforcement. In March 2021, President Biden told the country that Vice President Harris was ‘the most qualified person to…lead our efforts’ in stemming the flood of illegal aliens across our Southwest border. No rational person could look at the years since, and conclude anything except that she was utterly unqualified, and has completely failed. While Democrats and their allies in the media rush to excuse Vice President Harris’ catastrophic failure to end the crisis she and President Biden created, Congress has shown with this resolution that we want the American people to know the truth."
Biden camp suggests president quickly endorsed Kamala Harris to defy Barack Obama
"There’s buzz swirling within the Biden camp that the president’s swift endorsement of Kamala Harris was his revenge on prominent party leaders — including Barack Obama — who pressured him to bow out of the race against his will, sources told The Post.
Joe Biden, who said he was dropping out “in defense of democracy” during his public address Wednesday, had been told by Obama to allow delegates at next month’s Democratic National Convention in Chicago to decide a new candidate, a source close to the Biden family claimed.
“It was Joe’s big f–k you,” the source said. “Joe said, ‘If I’m out, then I am endorsing her.'”
Talk among insiders is that Biden saw this as a final way to assert some control over his ouster."
92 Percent Blame KAMALA For Covering Up Biden’s Decline
"Vice President Kamala Harris is starting her presidential campaign in a deep hole related to whether she knew about President Joe Biden’s physical and cognitive declines. A new poll released on Thursday shows more than nine in 10 Americans believe she participated in efforts by the White House to cover up the signs. An astonishing 92% of respondents believe Harris knew at least a little bit about the president’s progressive deterioration which finally hit the public consciousness following his disastrous debate against President Trump on June 27th."
Kamala Harris Turns to Hollywood Hype Machine Amid Alarming Election Poll Numbers
"Kamala Harris is regarded as the “second coming” by many Hollywood elites who have adored her since her days in California politics. Now, the vice president is leveraging her contacts in the entertainment industry not just to raise money, but to engineer hype and astroturf a cultural groundswell that she hopes will propel her into The White House. “Every woman that I know at Disney is over the moon right now,” one unnamed industry insider claimed to The Wrap. Harris participated in livestream call with some 40,000 minority women that included many Hollywood professionals.
The goal of the meeting was apparently for Team Kamala to issue marching orders to their Hollywood allies."
Science Journal Swoons Over Kamala
"These days, scientific and medical journals are seemingly as much ideological — on the left — as scientific.Here we go again. Nature — perhaps the preeminent science journal in the world — has posted a piece swooning over Vice President Kamala Harris as a “historic” presumptive presidential nominee stirring “optimism” among scientists. Why?
From the perspective of the article, she’s also great on — ta-da — abortion:
“Harris has been more vocal than Biden on abortion rights. Last December, she launched a nationwide reproductive freedoms tour, in which she became the first US vice-president to ever visit an abortion provider.”
And we can’t forget climate change:
“Harris and Biden are in lockstep on climate, and that’s exactly what we need,” says Stokes. “Our 2030 goals are right around the corner, and we can’t afford to roll back progress....”
Video Emerges of Kamala Harris Questioning if Young People Should Forgo Having Children Because of Climate Change
"A video has emerged showing previous comments of Vice President Kamala Harris questioning whether young people should forgo having children due to “climate anxiety.”
“Because young people said, ‘We’re not leaving it to other people to decide how we’re dealing with the climate crisis,'” Harris said. “You know, I’ve heard young leaders talk with me about a term they’ve coined called ‘climate anxiety.'”
Harris continued to explain that climate anxiety was the “fear of the future and the unknown of whether it makes sense for you to even think about having children, whether it makes sense for you to think about aspiring to buy a home because what will this climate be?”

Only After Intense Criticism from JD Vance and Others Does Kamala Harris Condemn Anti-Israel Vandalism in D.C.
"Kamala Harris only condemned Wednesday’s anti-Israel and pro-Hamas protest and vandalism in Washington, DC, after Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance and others called her out for her silence.Harris’s team put out its own statement on X condemning the protests after many Democrat and nearly all Republican politicians in Washington, DC, had.
“Yesterday, at Union Station in Washington, D.C. we saw despicable acts by unpatriotic protesters and dangerous hate-fueled rhetoric,” she said before condemning Hamas associates and the flag burning that occurred.
Perpetrators notably scribed the phrase “F**k Israel” on the Freedom Bell and brick pavers outside Union Station. Columbus Fountain bore the phrase “Hamas is Comin” in red graffiti."
Racist remarks from black activists tied to Kamala Harris could spell trouble for Dem ticket: ‘F–k white women’
"A pair of black female activists, who have met with Vice President Harris several times and previously vowed to get “real serious” about helping her become the next president, could alienate some of the “White women for Kamala” supporters with their past rhetoric as they mobilize ahead of November’s election.Cora Masters Barry, an appointee of Democrat D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser and longtime civil rights activist, and Melanie Campbell, who leads the National Coalition on Black Civic Participation, have visited the White House more than 50 times combined during the Biden administration. Barry and Campbell participated in a public Zoom call in which they made controversial statements about Trump supporters and used an expletive against White voters, specifically White women, which could cause some internal clashes as different coalitions mobilize to try to get Harris into the White House. “[Trump] did that, and we’re sitting here talking about the White women. F–k the white women– excuse me – forget the White women. They’re going to do what the White men tell them to do,” Barry continued, eliciting laughter and clapping from Campbell." NYP

Kamala Harris’ ‘Drag Race’ cameo draws mixed reviews: ‘this might have broken the cringe-o-meter’
"Presidential hopeful Kamala Harris became the first sitting vice president to sashay into the werkroom this week after sharing a get-out-the-vote message on “RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars,” leading to a mix of cheers and jeers online.“Each day, we are seeing our rights and freedoms under attack, including the right of everyone to be who they are, love who they love, openly and with pride,” Harris, 59, said in the clip that was teased Thursday but slated to air at the top of the Season 9 finale Friday.
“So as we fight back against these attacks, let’s all remember, no one is alone,” continued Harris, flanked by RuPaul regulars Michelle Visage and Jamal Sims, *NSYNC singer Lance Bass, “Ghostbusters” actress Leslie Jones and “American Horror Story” actor Cheyenne Jackson — all LGBQT+ icons. The minute-long clip drew mixed opinions across social media, with some praising Harris’ history-making appearance — which was filmed well ahead of her candidacy announcement and coincidentally aired days after President Biden’s endorsement. “She knows her audience,” one X user wrote. “This might have broken the cringe o meter … Wow,” one disappointed X user wrote.
“I’m not saying give blind loyalty to Republicans but I hope my Black folks get a good look at who she’s aligning herself with. She’s not coming to save you,” wrote another."

Sen. Mark Kelly (on a short list of running mate contenders for Harris) started spy balloon company funded by China
"Before becoming a senator, Mark Kelly, D-Ariz., was not only an astronaut, but he also co-founded a company that specializes in spy balloons, which was funded, in part, by a venture capitalist in China with close ties to the Chinese Communist Party.Kelly, who is reportedly on a short list of running mate contenders under consideration by Vice President Kamala Harris, co-founded Tucson, Arizona-based World View in 2012 with a vision to provide space tourism using stratospheric balloons. "Today, our primary business remains providing remote sensing services to the U.S. Department of Defense and her allies by way of intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance capabilities, as well as servicing scientific organizations like NASA, NOAA and others to better understand Earth from the unique atmospheric layer of the stratosphere." Axios reported that shortly after World View was started, it received venture capital from Tencent in 2013, then again in 2016. Tencent is one of China's largest corporations, and it was founded in 1998 by "Pony" Ma Huateng, Zhang Zhidong, Xu Chenye, Chen Yidan and Zeng Liqing. Last year, "Pony" Ma Huateng was listed by Forbes as the fourth-richest man in China. The Wall Street Journal reported in 2021 that Tencent collected a trove of data over the years from its mobile app WeChat, the predominant social-media platform in China. "The current leadership believed it was a mistake for the company to accept Chinese investment when it did," a company spokesperson said."

Kamala Harris Makes ‘Brat Summer’ Appeal to Gen Z Voters with Meme Remixes of Her Cringe-Worthy Public Flops
"Kamala Harris’s presidential campaign is seeking to paint the vice president as “down with the kids” by embracing Gen Z trends like “brat summer” and memes that have spread like wildfire across the internet remixing some of her most cringe-worthy public flops.The most prominent example of Harris’s team attempting to engage young people is its echo of one of the hottest pop-grunge albums of the summer, from pop star Charlie XCX called Brat. As Glamour describes, “brat summer is an aesthetic and a way of life” inspired by the album with the lime green cover, and is “the sonic equivalent of a grimy, sweaty dance floor.”
Charlie XCX has explained “brat” as “that girl who is a little messy and likes to party and like maybe says some like dumb things sometimes, who like feels herself but then also like maybe has a breakdown… It’s brat, you’re brat, that’s brat.” The Harris campaign’s full embrace of the trend came after the Brat performer herself took to X to proclaim “kamala is brat,” just hours after President Joe Biden dropped out of the presidential race and endorsed Harris.... the Harris HQ X account mimicked the lime green cover design of the Brat album to lean into the trend — all while memes spread on China-owned TikTok remixing viral Harris comments to songs from Brat. Internet users have also edited clips of the vice president dancing and explaining how to prepare a Thanksgiving turkey, both of which went viral. A particularly viral clip from 2023 — the one in which Harris said “You think you just fell out of a coconut tree? You exist in the context of all in which you live and what came before you” — has sparked a drove of coconut-themed memes. — so far, Harris has lower ratings with young voters than former President Donald Trump. A left-leaning Quinnipiac poll released on Monday found that 55 percent of voters ages 18 to 34 have an “unfavorable” opinion of Harris, compared to 40 percent who feel the same about Trump. However, young voters have a higher opinion of Harris than 81-year-old Biden, with 67 percent of young voters saying they have an “unfavorable” opinion of him." Breitbart

Fed's Favorite Inflation Indicator Unexpectedly Jumped In June
"The broadly weak trend of US macro data was jolted yesterday by a hotter than expected GDP print - which prompted a hawkish shift in rate-cut expectations. This morning, the doves get another chance for some 'bad news' (disinflation) to support their 'we must cut' narrative (that Dudley et al. have exposed).
The Fed's favorite inflation indicator - Core PCE - instead came in slightly hotter than expected. That is the 50th straight monthly rise in SuperCore prices with Healthcare costs soaring... income growth was weaker than expected....Which dragged the savings rate down further...All of which takes place against a background of the seventh straight month of rising government handouts (well it is an election year after all)... (which means the savings rate would have puked even more without it)."

As well as the huge drop in Japan, stock markets were battered in Europe. The declines followed a retreat on Wall Street after weak manufacturing data raised worries the Federal Reserve may have waited too long to cut interest rates, raising risks of a recession.
After the U.S. central bank held steady at a meeting this week, Fed Chair Jerome Powell said a cut could come in September. Worry is mounting that the Fed has kept its main interest rate at a two-decade high for too long in its zeal to stifle inflation by making it more costly to borrow. A rate cut could take months to a year to filter through the economy."

CNN Analyst: Kamala Harris’s Ability to Motivate Young Voters Not in Data
"Brat Summer or not, I looked into whether Harris has unique appeal to young voters. She doesn't. She's doing much worse against Trump than Biden did in 2020.Moreover, young Democrats are NOT disproportionately more motivated to vote than other Democrats because of Biden's exit. Only 42 percent of young Democrats between the ages of 18-29 are more motivated to vote after President Joe Biden’s exit, a CBS News/YouGov poll found. That is in contrast to the 39 percent of Democrats of all ages, just a three-point difference.
In 2024, young voters are split (49-49 percent) between identifying as Republicans and Democrats. In 2020, according to Pew Research, 56 percent of young voters identified as Democrats, while 39 percent identified as Republicans.
“When we say that Harris is doing worse than Biden, it’s not that she’s uniquely bad,” Enten said. “It’s rather, she’s fighting uphill. She’s trying to fight against a wave that is going against the Democrats among young voters.”...“So, if this is unique support among young voters, I would like to know what non-unique support is,” he said."
Kamalaflation: How Harris Caused Inflation By Casting Decisive Votes For Biden’s Economic Agenda
"The Biden-Harris administration’s sweeping $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan passed a deeply divided Senate in March of 2021 only after Harris cast the tie-breaking vote in favor of the pandemic spending bill that even prominent Democrat economists had warned would overheat the economy. Shortly after Harris cast her vote securing passage in the Senate of one of the largest increases in deficit spending in a generation, long-dormant inflation arose across the U.S. economy and pushed inflation to levels not seen in decades. By the following summer, inflation peaked at nine percent, the fastest pace of price increases since 1981. The vote cast by Harris was not the first partisan, tie-breaking vote she cast in favor of the inflationary legislation—and it was certainly not her last. Some six weeks earlier, Harris had cast her first tie-breaking vote to approve the blueprint of the pandemic spending bill and the procedural measures that would set the stage for the Senate to be able to avoid a filibuster and pass the measure with no Republican support.
“On this vote, the yeas are 50, the nays are 50,” Harris said. “The Senate being equally divided, the vice president votes in the affirmative and the concurrent resolution as amended is adopted.” Breitbart

She's doing much worse against Trump than Biden did in 2020.Moreover, young Democrats are NOT disproportionately more motivated to vote than other Democrats because of Biden's exit. Only 42 percent of young Democrats between the ages of 18-29 are more motivated to vote after President Joe Biden’s exit, a CBS News/YouGov poll found. That is in contrast to the 39 percent of Democrats of all ages, just a three-point difference.
In 2024, young voters are split (49-49 percent) between identifying as Republicans and Democrats. In 2020, according to Pew Research, 56 percent of young voters identified as Democrats, while 39 percent identified as Republicans.
“When we say that Harris is doing worse than Biden, it’s not that she’s uniquely bad,” Enten said. “It’s rather, she’s fighting uphill. She’s trying to fight against a wave that is going against the Democrats among young voters.”...“So, if this is unique support among young voters, I would like to know what non-unique support is,” he said."

"The Biden-Harris administration’s sweeping $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan passed a deeply divided Senate in March of 2021 only after Harris cast the tie-breaking vote in favor of the pandemic spending bill that even prominent Democrat economists had warned would overheat the economy. Shortly after Harris cast her vote securing passage in the Senate of one of the largest increases in deficit spending in a generation, long-dormant inflation arose across the U.S. economy and pushed inflation to levels not seen in decades. By the following summer, inflation peaked at nine percent, the fastest pace of price increases since 1981. The vote cast by Harris was not the first partisan, tie-breaking vote she cast in favor of the inflationary legislation—and it was certainly not her last. Some six weeks earlier, Harris had cast her first tie-breaking vote to approve the blueprint of the pandemic spending bill and the procedural measures that would set the stage for the Senate to be able to avoid a filibuster and pass the measure with no Republican support.
“On this vote, the yeas are 50, the nays are 50,” Harris said. “The Senate being equally divided, the vice president votes in the affirmative and the concurrent resolution as amended is adopted.” Breitbart
"The House passed a resolution introduced by Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) that condemns Vice President Kamala Harris’s “failure” as what they referred to as “border czar” with support from all Republicans and six Democrats. Those six House Democrats who voted for the resolution are:Rep. Yadira Caraveo (D-CO)
Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX)
Rep. Don Davis (D-NC)
Rep. Jared Golden (D-ME)
Rep. Mary Sattler Peltola (D-AK)
Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (D-WA)
Vice President Kamala Harris is not just a failed border czar — she is an extremist on border security and immigration enforcement. In March 2021, President Biden told the country that Vice President Harris was ‘the most qualified person to…lead our efforts’ in stemming the flood of illegal aliens across our Southwest border. No rational person could look at the years since, and conclude anything except that she was utterly unqualified, and has completely failed. While Democrats and their allies in the media rush to excuse Vice President Harris’ catastrophic failure to end the crisis she and President Biden created, Congress has shown with this resolution that we want the American people to know the truth."

Biden camp suggests president quickly endorsed Kamala Harris to defy Barack Obama
"There’s buzz swirling within the Biden camp that the president’s swift endorsement of Kamala Harris was his revenge on prominent party leaders — including Barack Obama — who pressured him to bow out of the race against his will, sources told The Post.
Joe Biden, who said he was dropping out “in defense of democracy” during his public address Wednesday, had been told by Obama to allow delegates at next month’s Democratic National Convention in Chicago to decide a new candidate, a source close to the Biden family claimed.
“It was Joe’s big f–k you,” the source said. “Joe said, ‘If I’m out, then I am endorsing her.'”
Talk among insiders is that Biden saw this as a final way to assert some control over his ouster."

"Vice President Kamala Harris is starting her presidential campaign in a deep hole related to whether she knew about President Joe Biden’s physical and cognitive declines. A new poll released on Thursday shows more than nine in 10 Americans believe she participated in efforts by the White House to cover up the signs. An astonishing 92% of respondents believe Harris knew at least a little bit about the president’s progressive deterioration which finally hit the public consciousness following his disastrous debate against President Trump on June 27th."

"Kamala Harris is regarded as the “second coming” by many Hollywood elites who have adored her since her days in California politics. Now, the vice president is leveraging her contacts in the entertainment industry not just to raise money, but to engineer hype and astroturf a cultural groundswell that she hopes will propel her into The White House. “Every woman that I know at Disney is over the moon right now,” one unnamed industry insider claimed to The Wrap. Harris participated in livestream call with some 40,000 minority women that included many Hollywood professionals.
The goal of the meeting was apparently for Team Kamala to issue marching orders to their Hollywood allies."

"These days, scientific and medical journals are seemingly as much ideological — on the left — as scientific.Here we go again. Nature — perhaps the preeminent science journal in the world — has posted a piece swooning over Vice President Kamala Harris as a “historic” presumptive presidential nominee stirring “optimism” among scientists. Why?
From the perspective of the article, she’s also great on — ta-da — abortion:
“Harris has been more vocal than Biden on abortion rights. Last December, she launched a nationwide reproductive freedoms tour, in which she became the first US vice-president to ever visit an abortion provider.”
And we can’t forget climate change:
“Harris and Biden are in lockstep on climate, and that’s exactly what we need,” says Stokes. “Our 2030 goals are right around the corner, and we can’t afford to roll back progress....”
Swooning over Harris’s candidacy as a cause for optimism among scientists doesn’t benefit science and could add to the widespread public distrust that has afflicted the sector in recent years."

Video Emerges of Kamala Harris Questioning if Young People Should Forgo Having Children Because of Climate Change
"A video has emerged showing previous comments of Vice President Kamala Harris questioning whether young people should forgo having children due to “climate anxiety.”
“Because young people said, ‘We’re not leaving it to other people to decide how we’re dealing with the climate crisis,'” Harris said. “You know, I’ve heard young leaders talk with me about a term they’ve coined called ‘climate anxiety.'”
Harris continued to explain that climate anxiety was the “fear of the future and the unknown of whether it makes sense for you to even think about having children, whether it makes sense for you to think about aspiring to buy a home because what will this climate be?”

Only After Intense Criticism from JD Vance and Others Does Kamala Harris Condemn Anti-Israel Vandalism in D.C.
"Kamala Harris only condemned Wednesday’s anti-Israel and pro-Hamas protest and vandalism in Washington, DC, after Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance and others called her out for her silence.Harris’s team put out its own statement on X condemning the protests after many Democrat and nearly all Republican politicians in Washington, DC, had.
“Yesterday, at Union Station in Washington, D.C. we saw despicable acts by unpatriotic protesters and dangerous hate-fueled rhetoric,” she said before condemning Hamas associates and the flag burning that occurred.
Perpetrators notably scribed the phrase “F**k Israel” on the Freedom Bell and brick pavers outside Union Station. Columbus Fountain bore the phrase “Hamas is Comin” in red graffiti."

"A pair of black female activists, who have met with Vice President Harris several times and previously vowed to get “real serious” about helping her become the next president, could alienate some of the “White women for Kamala” supporters with their past rhetoric as they mobilize ahead of November’s election.Cora Masters Barry, an appointee of Democrat D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser and longtime civil rights activist, and Melanie Campbell, who leads the National Coalition on Black Civic Participation, have visited the White House more than 50 times combined during the Biden administration. Barry and Campbell participated in a public Zoom call in which they made controversial statements about Trump supporters and used an expletive against White voters, specifically White women, which could cause some internal clashes as different coalitions mobilize to try to get Harris into the White House. “[Trump] did that, and we’re sitting here talking about the White women. F–k the white women– excuse me – forget the White women. They’re going to do what the White men tell them to do,” Barry continued, eliciting laughter and clapping from Campbell." NYP

BOOK: Joe Biden ‘Repeatedly’ Trashed Kamala Harris as Inauthentic in 2020
"President Joe Biden “privately” and “repeatedly” questioned the authenticity of Vice President Kamala Harris during the 2020 campaign, according to a book that Alex Burns and Jonathan Martin, two Politico heads, wrote in 2022. It also lends credence to speculation that Biden endorsed Harris to enact revenge on party bosses who threatened to oust him from the race with the Twenty-Fifth Amendment. Biden chose Harris anyway, to the reported consternation of First Lady Jill Biden, even though she essentially called Biden “racist and a segregationist” during the 2020 debate." Breitbart

Trump Rips Kamala Harris for Questionable Claim She Worked at McDonald’s
"Trump ripped incumbent Vice President Kamala Harris over her questionable claim she once worked at a McDonald’s.
During an appearance Friday at a Moms for Liberty Convention in Washington, DC, Trump told the audience, “She also said, ‘I worked at McDonald’s.’ Turned out she didn’t work at McDonald’s.” “Did anyone see that?” he added. “After an exhaustive study that took about 20 minutes, they found out she never worked there.”

Is Kamala Already Walking Back Her Soviet-Style 'Price Controls' Plan?
"Harris finally decided to drop some key economic agenda items last week, and you’d have to be living under a rock to not know that it was a disaster. Kamala was blasted from both sides of the aisle for proposing dangerous policies that are likely to make the problems she claims to want to fix even worse. The most notable example of this was her proposed federal ban on “price-gouging,” which was blasted by liberal Washington Post columnist Catherine Rampell and even an Obama economist.
"It’s hard to exaggerate how bad this policy is,” Rampell wrote Thursday evening. "It is, in all but name, a sweeping set of government-enforced price controls across every industry, not only food. Supply and demand would no longer determine prices or profit levels. Far-off Washington bureaucrats would. The FTC would be able to tell, say, a Kroger in Ohio the acceptable price it can charge for milk."
Rampell reports that Kamala Harris is already trying to walk back the proposal with softened rhetoric after being pounded with criticism for such terrible policy. Rampell also didn’t think too much of Kamala promising $25,000 downpayment assistance for first-time homebuyers."
