Op/Ed

While it’s possible that Harris would disagree with some DSA sub-points, it’s undeniable that she agrees, or has agreed, with the socialists on their major themes.

Both Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, and his Morena party and Biden and Democrats say the current judicial system is a threat to democracy. But what they really want is a high court that kowtows to progressive demands. 

The admonition is for Christians, either individually or as a group (i.e., the church), to give of their own time and resources to help the poor. Voting for Kamala Harris does not fulfill that obligation. 

If current polls are accurately reflecting swing-state voters’ choices for their respective Senate candidates, those leads will likely determine those states’ choice for president. 

Convention speakers waxed eloquent on the freedom theme. But it was mostly a marketing ploy. They know Americans revere their God-given and constitutional freedoms and want to preserve them. So, Democrats are couching everything they want to do in the guise of freedom. 

She promised she would provide more detail in the coming months. Perhaps Democrats would prefer she stick with her detail-free campaign.

There are many as-yet unannounced policy positions, and you can be sure they all will give the government much more control over our choices and our lives. But Harris will likely stick to unoffensive platitudes as long as voters, and especially the media, don’t demand specifics. 

The fact that Iran already secretly funnels money to numerous organizations implies the Iranians have a well-established international network of money launderers and could easily direct funds to key pro-Hamas protesters in the U.S

It is extremely unlikely that Biden’s reforms will pass. Some proposals would need legislation, which the current House of Representatives won’t pass. Other reforms would need a Constitutional amendment, which would be even harder to get through.

A 15 percent rate—which would be more like 18 to 19 percent with state taxes included—would make the U.S. a very attractive place to locate businesses.
