The Democratic National Committee’s 192-page autopsy on the 2024 election loss to Donald Trump, though incomplete, assigns blame to former President Biden’s operation for failing to adequately position Kamala Harris as the party’s standard-bearer. The report details how the Biden team did not conduct surveys to support Harris, leaving her vulnerable to attacks, particularly Trump’s “very effective” anti-trans advertisements. Furthermore, it criticizes both the Biden and Harris campaigns for not sufficiently countering Trump’s momentum and for a lack of negative advertising. The analysis also suggests Democrats should de-emphasize abstract issues and identity politics, focusing instead on the economy, disaster relief, and housing affordability to better connect with voters in “Middle America” and the South.

Former Vice President Kamala Harris has strongly criticized the Supreme Court’s decision allowing states to dismantle Black-majority congressional districts, labeling it a Republican strategy to “cheat” and suppress voters ahead of midterm elections. This ruling, stemming from *Louisiana v. Callais*, requires proof of “intentional discrimination” for voting rights challenges based on race, a significant blow to the 1965 Voting Rights Act. In response, several Republican-led Southern states have already begun redrawing district maps to dilute Black voters’ political power, prompting Harris to suggest reforms such as expanding the Supreme Court and revisiting the Electoral College. However, Republicans, including House Speaker Mike Johnson, have denounced these criticisms as dangerous and an attempt to “blow up the system” out of political defeat.

The Democratic National Committee chair, Ken Martin, faces escalating criticism for withholding the party’s 2024 election autopsy report, despite promising transparency. This secrecy benefits Kamala Harris, who is preparing for a 2028 presidential run and wishes to distance herself from potential negative findings, particularly regarding her support for the Biden administration’s approach to the war in Gaza. Polls indicate a significant disconnect between Democratic voters’ views on Israel and the DNC’s stance, a divide Martin seems determined to maintain.

During a speech in Detroit, former Vice President Kamala Harris asserted that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu “pulled” President Donald Trump into a war with Iran, an action she characterized as unwanted by the American public. Harris further alleged that Trump’s actions, including Operation Epic Fury, served as a distraction from the Epstein files, and she condemned his administration as the “most corrupt, callous, and incompetent” in US history. She also accused Trump of abandoning America’s commitment to nurturing alliances and international norms, thereby rendering the nation “unreliable” to its allies and diminishing its global influence.

Kamala Harris is sounding a significant alarm, suggesting that Donald Trump, described with the stark moniker of “mob boss,” has profoundly “eroded” America’s global standing and power. The sentiment expressed is that this erosion goes far beyond mere damage, with some observers feeling that America’s soft power, its ability to influence through attraction and persuasion rather than coercion, has been all but decimated. This perspective paints a picture of traditional allies actively seeking to solidify new alliances and trade relationships, often bypassing the United States, indicating a significant shift in global dynamics.
The critique suggests that Trump’s approach has fundamentally altered how the world perceives and interacts with the U.S.… Continue reading
The authors of these letters express significant doubts regarding former Vice President Kamala Harris’ potential 2028 presidential candidacy. Concerns are raised about her past campaign performances and her perceived silence on President Biden’s cognitive decline, which some believe disqualifies her. Instead, suggestions are made for her to demonstrate leadership by influencing California gubernatorial candidates or for the Democratic Party to nominate more viable candidates with broader appeal, such as Senator Mark Kelly.

While in Detroit promoting her memoir and a local business, former Vice President Kamala Harris unequivocally opposed the U.S. strikes on Iran, stating that “Donald Trump has dragged us into a war the American people do not want.” She asserted that the president has put American troops in harm’s way by initiating an “unauthorized war of choice” that the public disapproves of. Harris also emphasized that Congress must act to stop such actions, reflecting broader public sentiment and potential impacts on future elections.

It seems there’s a prevailing sentiment, almost a resounding consensus, that the Democratic Party, and specifically Kamala Harris’s campaign, may have suffered significant electoral losses due to their stance on the conflict in Gaza. This isn’t just a whisper; it’s a viewpoint frequently expressed, suggesting that the party’s approach to this critical issue was a major, perhaps even the primary, factor in alienating voters. The notion is that a “secret report” revealing this, rather than being groundbreaking news, simply confirms what many observers and voters on the ground already understood quite clearly.
The disconnect between the party’s actions and the desires of a significant portion of its base appears to be a core complaint.… Continue reading
Former Vice President Kamala Harris criticized Donald Trump’s characterization of the fatal ICE shooting of Renee Good in Minneapolis, accusing him of misrepresenting the facts. Harris’s statement followed Governor Tim Walz’s announcement of a state investigation into the incident, which appeared to contradict the Trump administration’s initial claim of self-defense. Video evidence suggested Good was attempting to flee federal agents when she was shot. Harris emphasized the need for a thorough and impartial investigation, contrasting her approach with the Trump administration’s rush to judgment.
