As a U.S. senator and vice president, Kamala Harris has supported massive government spending that has fueled inflation and contributed to high interest rates on home mortgages and consumer spending.
She has increased dependence on government and empowered government officials to direct decision making on matters related to education, health care, housing, energy, and economic policy.
Harris has supported President Biden’s reckless border policy and has failed mightily in addressing the “root causes” of mass migration across our southern border.
As cartels have trafficked millions of people through Latin America, they have caused death and destruction along the way.
This will likely exacerbate the pressure on our southern border in the years to come.
Senator Elizabeth Warren, a leading progressive champion, recently addressed the situation at the border by telling CNN,
“Recognize – and I know that Kamala Harris knows this – this is a problem that ultimately has to be solved by Congress. I believe we need to create a pathway to citizenship.”
Progressives have longed to turn America blue and they see mass migration as a means to grant citizenship and voting rights to millions of people who come to the United States illegally,
bypassing the type of vetting required of people who seek to come through our legal immigration system.
Despite being a former prosecutor, Harris has recklessly accused police officers of murder when there was no evidence for such accusations.
Harris described Michael Brown’s 2014 death in Ferguson, Missouri as “murder,”
years after the Obama Justice Department had cleared the police officer of any wrongdoing,
and after two Democrat prosecutors in Saint Louis County had investigated and brought no charges against the police officer.
Harris made the allegation on the fifth anniversary of Michael Brown’s death in 2019 as she was campaigning for the Democrat presidential nomination.
In 2020, Harris made another unfounded allegation of “murder” after the tragic death of Breonna Taylor in Louisville, Kentucky.
Harris also helped raise money to bail out rioters in 2020 after they had assaulted Minneapolis police officers and other citizens,
burned down buildings and caused many millions worth of property damage.
Tragically, this lawlessness went viral and spread to cities across America.
Having established this record of failure and divisiveness, Kamala Harris now seeks a promotion to President of the United States.
The American people have a serious decision to make in the months ahead.
