Vice President Kamala Harris' visit to the southern border at Douglas, Arizona on September 27, 2024 is a desperate campaign effort on her part, as she attempts to rebrand herself as the one who is trying to secure the border, and as she blames Trump for the flood of illegal immigrants and unacceptable deaths from fentanyl caused by the open border. Apparently she has gotten advice from Houdini about how to pull this off. This audacious attempt will only work if there are a lot of ignorant voters.
Also, the war between Israel and the Hezbollah terrorists is heating up. Israel took out two top terrorist leaders this week.

The historic debate between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump was interesting, and it helped Harris a little--that is she proved that she was not an airhead. Both candidates claimed victory, but the Harris team immediately called for another debate, which Trump seems to be opposing, unless it could be moderated by FOX News, and Harris will have no part of that.
Harris refused to answer the substantive questions, but spent her time bashing Trump, including using many lies to do it. The ABC moderators never called Harris on any of her lies, but the regularly tried to correct Trump, even when Trump was correct.

With Harris and Trump tied nationally in the polls, and with Trump having an advantage in the states that could give him an electoral victory, tonight's debate is for Trump to lose. All he has to do is keep his cool, do not bash Harris personally, and let Kamala Harris self-destruct with his unpopular policies and her being a partner with Joe Biden in ruining America. We'll see what happens.

President Biden's speech at the Democrat National Convention won't help Harris, and it may hurt her. Biden delivered the same angry speech that he had previously given at his recent State of the Union address and before that in front of Independence Hall in Philadelphia. The speech is filled with falsehoods and mischaracterizations. The speech shows that Biden sees himself as the greatest president in the nation's history as he saves the nation from the diabolical villain Donald Trump, who is a threat to democracy as well as decency and goodness. Biden lives in a fantasy world that cannot see the truth about either Trump or himself.

In selecting Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate, Kamala Harris went for left, embracing a left-wing radical who refused to send the National Guard to quell the BLM riots in Minneapolis in 2020 and who has made Minnesota a sanctuary for children who want to get sex-change surgeries even if their parents disapprove. I don't think the nation is as far left as Walz and Harris. If I'm wrong America will be in bad shape.

On July 29, 2024, Pres. Joe Biden announced a proposal to reform the Supreme Court because he contends the Court has become an extreme MAGA Court that threatens our democracy. Biden asks Congress to pass laws making terms of 18 years for Supreme Court Justices, and making a code of ethics that the Court must follow. There is no chance his proposal will go anywhere; this is just a political act to try to paint the Supreme Court as extreme and dangerous, and to help defeat Trump in November. In the podcast we will examine the main, recent Court opinions, and show that they are mostly historically in line with precedents, and that the cases that Biden criticizes are correct, sound and good for the nation and for the Constitution.

On July 21, 2024, Pres. Joe Biden issued a letter stating that he was dropping out of the race as a candidate for President. A short time later, Biden issued another statement supporting Kamala Harris as candidate for President. Key Democrat leaders have yet to endorse Harris. Harris is not likely to beat Trump because she has just as many deficits as did Biden--just a different set of weaknesses. Democrats are stuck with Harris because of DEI priorities.

The assassination attempt on Donald Trump that took place on Saturday, July 13, 2024 in Butler, PA was not successful. Unfortunately, the shooter did kill one attendee and seriously injured two others. Secret Service failed to maintain an adequate lookout during the rally. This failure is unacceptable. This event will increase the support for Trump; his supporters believe God is protecting Trump. The photo of Trump raising a clenched fist, with blood on his face, with the American flag in the background will be an iconic photo that will be a part of American history for years to come.
