Watch: JD Vance Shreds ‘Fundamentally Fake’ Kamala Harris & Tim Walz in CNN Interview
Trump running mate J.D. Vance schooled CNN’s Dana Bash during a Sunday interview over Kamala Harris’ refusal to do interviews, her campaign’s ad hominem attacks against him, and its lack of coherent policy proposals.
Vance told the “State of the Union” host that she should be asking Kamala Harris to answer for her and Joe Biden’s disastrous policies rather than dredge up questions about irrelevant past remarks he’s made.
“You’ve now asked me three questions about comments that I made three years ago. I wonder what Kamala Harris thinks about the fact that her policies opened the southern border…Kamala’s been the nominee for three weeks and she hasn’t sat down for a real interview,” Vance said.

“I’m interviewing you, not Kamala Harris,” Bash retorted.
“You are interviewing me, Dana, because I respect the American people enough to sit down for an interview,” Vance pointed out, adding Harris has not been interviewed since she was coronated as the Democrat nominee.
“The point is, Dana, you’ve got me for 15 minutes…we should be talking about public policies that matter,” Vance added. “How are we going to lower inflation? How are we going to reduce the cost of food and housing? How are we going to close down that southern border? We talked so little about that, we talked a lot more about a sarcastic remark I made three years ago, I think we should talk about the issues most Americans care about.”
Vance also called out the Harris campaign’s mud-slinging strategy of calling him “weird,” saying it “drives home how they’re trying to distract from their own policy failures.”
“I mean, look, this is fundamentally schoolyard bully stuff,” Vance said. “They can accuse me of whatever they want to accuse me of.”

“I’m doing this because I think that me being vice president will help improve people’s lives, so I accept their attacks, but I think that it is a little bit of projection, Dana,” Vance added.
“So I think that what it is is two people, Kamala Harris and Tim Walz, who aren’t comfortable in their own skin because they aren’t comfortable with their policy positions for the American people, and so they’re name-calling instead of actually telling the American people how they’re going to make their lives better. I think that’s weird, Dana, but look, they can call me whatever they want to,” Vance said.

Joe Biden Admits He Was FORCED OUT of 2024 Race By Top Democrats
Joe Biden admitted in a Sunday interview that he was pressured to drop out of the 2024 election race by prominent Democrat colleagues.
Since Biden suddenly exited the race last month, Democrats and the media have pushed the narrative that Biden selflessly left the race for the good of the nation.
But as Biden revealed, that was not the case at all.
“The polls we had showed it was a neck and neck race, it would have been down to the wire. But what happened was a number of my Democratic colleagues in the House and Senate thought that I was gonna hurt them in the races,” Biden told “CBS Sunday Morning” host Robert Costa.

“And I was concerned if I stayed in the race, that would be the topic…and I thought it would be a real distraction.”
The revelation is not all that surprising given Biden for weeks resisted widespread calls by Democrats to drop out following his disastrous debate performance on June 27 before finally dropping out a month later.
“I’m the nominee of the Democratic Party,” Biden had said in early July. “No one’s pushing me out. I’m not leaving. I’m in this race to the end, and we’re going to win because when Democrats unite, we always win.”
Biden’s admission also comes after reporting by journalist Seymour Hersh and other outlets, who claimed former President Barack Obama threatened Biden with the 25th Amendment, saying he had “Kamala’s approval” to force him out of the race.
Hersh said Obama was “deeply involved” with this coup and called Biden after his health “incident” in Las Vegas on July 17.
“I went over [reports] this week with a senior official in Washington who helped me fashion an account of a White House in complete disarray,” Hersh said. “Obama called Biden after breakfast [on July 20] and said, ‘Here’s the deal. We have Kamala’s approval to invoke the 25th Amendment.’”
He added that former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries were also involved in the plot with Obama.
“The official, who has decades of experience in fundraising, told me that [Barack] Obama emerged as the strongman throughout the negotiations. ‘He had an agenda and he wanted to seek it through to the end, and he wanted to have control over who would be elected,’” Hersh said.
Pelosi tacitly admitted she pressured Biden to drop out of the race in an interview with the New Yorker.
“So I really wanted him to make a decision of a better campaign, because they were not facing the fact of what was happening. Just a little background. I’ve never been that impressed with his political operation… I’m not. I just haven’t been. I mean, it just happened. They won the White House. Bravo.”
“So my concern was, this ain’t happening, and we have to make a decision for this to happen, and the President has to make the decision for that to happen,” she added.
Former President Donald Trump has notably been calling out the coup against Biden and defended the puppet president’s right to run and even suggested Biden may try to fight for the nomination back at the DNC later this month.
“The presidency was taken away from Biden — and I’m no Biden fan,” Trump told reporters at Mar-a-Lago on Thursday. “Whether he could win or he couldn’t win, he had the right to run. They said we can do it the nice way or the hard way. What they’ve done is incredible.”

Constitutional Expert: Harris-Walz Presidency Would Be ‘Nightmare For Free Speech’
A Harris-Walz administration would be a “nightmare for free speech,” according to George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley.
In an op-ed for The Hill, Turley explained how the Biden administration’s “unrelenting attack on the freedom of speech” would only accelerate in a Harris administration.
“President Biden made censorship a central part of his legacy, even accusing social media companies of “killing people” for failing to increase levels of censorship,” Turley wrote Saturday.
“Democrats in Congress pushed that agenda by demanding censorship on subjects ranging from climate change to gender identity — even to banking policy — in the name of combatting ‘disinformation.’”
Harris has long supported anti-free speech policies. The addition of Walz completes a perfect nightmare for free speech advocates. Walz has shown not only a shocking disregard for free speech but a shocking lack of understanding of the First Amendment. https://t.co/Cll8BaoP3U

Turley noted that Kamala Harris has been supportive of these unconstitutional policies from the beginning, and her selection of Gov. Tim Walz (D-Minn.) as her running mate all but guarantees that free speech is in danger should they win the 2024 election.
“As vice president, Harris has long supported these anti-free speech policies. The addition of Walz completes a perfect nightmare for free speech advocates,” he wrote. “Walz has shown not only a shocking disregard for free speech values but an equally shocking lack of understanding of the First Amendment.”
“Walz went on MSNBC to support censoring disinformation and declared, ‘There’s no guarantee to free speech on misinformation or hate speech, and especially around our democracy.’”
“Ironically, this false claim, repeated by many Democrats, constitutes one of the most dangerous forms of disinformation,” Turley continued. “It is being used to convince a free people to give up some of their freedom with a ‘nothing to see here’ pitch.”
“With the addition of Walz, Democrats now have arguably the most anti-free speech ticket of a major party in more than two centuries. Both candidates are committed to using disinformation, misinformation and malinformation as justifications for speech controls. The third category has been emphasized by the Biden-Harris administration, which explained that it is information ‘based on fact, but used out of context to mislead, harm, or manipulate,’” Turley added.
Turley went on to set the record straight about the First Amendment’s protections of speech, which include what Democrats call “hate speech.”
The Supreme Court has consistently rejected the claim of Gov. Walz. For example, in the 2016 Matal v. Tam decision, the court stressed that this precise position “strikes at the heart of the First Amendment. Speech that demeans on the basis of race, ethnicity, gender, religion, age, disability, or any other similar ground is hateful; but the proudest boast of our free speech jurisprudence is that we protect the freedom to express ‘the thought that we hate.’”
Even though the Biden-Harris administration has “notably toned down its anti-free speech efforts as the election approaches,” Turley warned that its anti-free speech policies will return “with a vengeance” if Harris and Walz win the election.
“That could be radically enhanced if the Democrats take both houses of Congress and once again block investigations into their censorship programs,” Turley concluded.
