Vice President Kamala Harris to be a "leading voice" on gun violence heading into the 2024 cycle

[EVENKEEL]

I'm looking forward to her passage of time speech. Oh and that uplifting cackle of hers.

Evidence of her brilliance? Any task she has completed credibly as VP so far?

 

If she gives another speech using the phrase "unburdened by the past" with that phony gesture I am gonna hurl.  She makes Dan Quayle look positively loquacious.

She is an attorney? That is her brilliance?   Please don't try to make her sound like a poor little black girl growing up in the ghetto who somehow made it out of the racist morass to achieve greatness. She came from a very highly privileged background in academia, raised by upper class parents.  As a 'woman of color' in California it is impossible NOT to fall upwards into government job after government job.  Get into the system, know the right people, ride the coat-tails of more powerful men... 

 

The border is a hot mess and has been for the entirety of the Biden administration. 

 

I guess Democrats couldn't see her "brilliance" either, as her disastrous run for the Presidency in 2020 showed. She couldn't even make it to the first primary.  And was torched repeatedly in debates.

"Biden just started something called the "Office of Gun Violence Prevention" - and he put Kamala Harris in charge! Hate to tell y'all but if Kamala handles GUNS like she handled the border, we ALL gonna be in body bags with toe tags on," former Republican Florida congressional candidate Lavern Spicer wrote on X, formerly Twitter.

 

As of September 1, there were 479 mass shootings in 2023, 12,828 gun deaths, 25,467 gun injuries and 1,098 unintentional shootings in the U.S., according to data from the Gun Violence Archive.

She's done a great job with the border situation (I dare not call it a crises for the bots will jump on that), so I'm happy to see she's being promoted to a real challenge for the next administration. Good luck with that.

IMO by putting her in charge he's not taking it seriously, as he probably understands that the chances of HER actually reducing shootings is ( IMO ) zero.

 

Let's remember that he put her in charge of the southern border which has become a disaster. According to Al Jazeera nearly 9,000 undocumented immigrants illegally entered the US at the southern border in last 24 hours.

Seems like she just ignored the problem.

What would a former CA AG know about shootings?

Being the 'best qualified' doesn't seem to be a priority any more.

 

 

There’s no such thing as ‘the best qualified’, there’s a range of candidates who are all qualified and all bring something different to the job.

 

The only time we here the rightwing bleating about ‘the best qualified’ is when the candidate isn’t a white male.

A very curious argument to try to put in someone else’s mouth.

 

I wonder what triggered it?

I can understand why Biden has assigned her the job of tackling gun laws. 7 years or so as AG for the world's third largest economy. That's a lot of creds.

Even Bobby said she was sloppy!!!

The Supreme Court just came out with a ruling that selecting based on race is illegal.  Biden specifically selected her on race and gender.  That's not only unconstitutional.  It's un-American.

 

If I put out a job ad specifying only black women can apply, I'd be prosecuted.  And rightly so.

You really think she is qualified to be president ?  Has nothing to do with her being a mixed race female.  She's simply incompetent to hold office.

 

And people wonder how the country got in the state it is.

Odd then that white makes make up the vast majority of senior political positions?

Opinions differ.

 

The vitriolic response she receives from the alt-right suggests she’s doing something right.

So based on your logic... Trump must really be doing something right... considering the hate and vitriol coming from the liberal left and the Hateful 8.

Only if you believe Trump’s affront to decency, the constitution and the rule of law are doing something right.

 

Harris is a:

 

1 Bright

2 Articulate

3 Mixed Race

4 Woman in power

 

There’s the 4 core reasons the Alt-right hate her.

Kamala Harris, getting it done for Americans.

 

I expect the Alt-Right to rant against this even though very many rightwing voters, and particularly those on low incomes, will benefit from this Harris initiative:

Agree 100% on the incompetence. One only needs to look at the southern border to know she is incompetent. She was put in charge of that and it's worse now than before she started.

Did it ever occur to you that  perhaps she was selected because she is the VPOTUS, and rightly so?

 

Or is that a racist and gender remark from me?
