Vice President Kamala Harris Blasts ‘Extremist Agenda’ Spoken at First Republican Debate

August 24, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Kamala Harris Claps Back at Donald Trump After his Farewell Message: 'See You at Your Trial'

The first Republican presidential debate occured on Wednesday (Aug. 23), placing Vivek Ramaswamy, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, former Vice President Mike Pence, South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, and New Jersey Gov, Chris Christie and more on stage. Notably missing was President Donald Trump. Trump skipped the debate due to his massive lead in the polls and Ramaswamy was the target of the night due to his lack of political experience.

Following the debate, Vice President Kamala Harris released a statement:

“No one on stage ‘won’ tonight’s debate. Instead, the American people heard how much they stand to lose from an extremist agenda.

“One by one, each extremist Republican candidate laid out a vision for an America that is less fair, less free, and less safe. These candidates want to raise costs for working families in order to benefit special interests and the ultra-wealthy. To gut Social Security and Medicare. To strip fundamental rights and basic freedoms from millions of people. And to reverse the Bidenomics strategy that has helped create 13 million jobs, the strongest two years of small business creation in history, and record-low unemployment.

“These extremists focus on unnecessary debates meant to divide our nation in hopes that the American public will not notice they have no affirmative agenda.

“President Biden and I will continue to grow the economy from the bottom up and the middle out and build a nation in which all people can truly thrive. We are laser-focused on finishing the job we’ve started: to create good jobs, lower costs, fix America’s roads and bridges, create a clean energy economy, protect a woman’s right to make decisions about her own body, keep our children safe from gun violence, and make sure all Americans can dream about their future with ambition and aspiration.”

Texas Governor Greg Abbott Sends 50 More Migrants To VP Kamala Harris’ Home

September 19, 2022 by newhiphopnews

The Texas Governor Greg Abbott is still making headlines.

A second busload of migrants sent from Texas arrived outside the home of Vice President Kamala Harris over the weekend. The latest bus is part of Governor Greg Abbott’s ongoing policy of sending migrants from Texas to underscore the Biden administration’s open-border policies.

Harris recently appeared on NBC’s “Meet the Press” and claimed the border is secure, leading Abbott to target her residence. The governors claim their states are overwhelmed and President Biden is ignoring the crisis.

The bus arrived before dawn on Saturday at the Naval Observatory in Washington, D.C. Currently, two busloads of illegal immigrants from Texas have reportedly been dropped off near the home of Vice President Kamala Harris.

After 50 Venezuelan migrants were also flown to Martha’s Vineyard last week without notice. Florida Republican Governor Ron Desantis, admits he chartered two private planes to take the migrants to Martha’s Vineyard.

Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre accused Abbott and DeSantis of using human beings as political pawns for photo-ops. She called the moves dangerous political stunts. Jean-Pierre added — “Stunts aren’t solutions.” She said Republicans should work with Democrats on comprehensive immigration reforms.

Civil rights attorneys are calling for state and federal investigations after the Republican Governor’s reckless tactics last week. The group Lawyers for Civil Rights has expressed concern that the migrants were persuaded to board airplanes and cross state lines under false pretenses.

Vice President Harris Speaks At College Commencement

Vice President Kamala Harris gives graduates a jarring reality check during her HBCU commencement speech.

The VP left some college graduates with a sobering picture of the “unsettled” world they’re heading into. She discussed the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine and the possibility Roe v. Wade may be overturned by the Supreme Court during a commencement speech Saturday at Tennessee State University.

“Graduates, I look at this unsettled world and yes, I can see the challenges, but I’m here to tell you that I see the opportunities. The opportunities for your leadership. The future of our country and our world will be shaped by you.”

Harris stated that “the certainty of fundamental principles,” like territorial integrity and bodily autonomy, are being called into question. She ended the speech by congratulating the class of 2022 on their achievements despite the ongoing pandemic.

“Here in the United States, we are once again forced to defend fundamental principles that we hoped were long settled; principles like the freedom to vote, the rights of women to make decisions about their own body, what constitutes the truth,” she said.

Harris is also set to give a commencement speech May 18 at the U.S. Coast Guard Academy. Share your thoughts with us on social media.
