Congressional Scorecard Site Purges Kamala Harris’ Page, Removes ‘Most Liberal’ Label
July 26, 2024

With less than four months before Election Day, Vice President Kamala Harris is working at a disadvantage as she appears to have been chosen for the position at the top of Democrats’ 2024 presidential ticket.

Fortunately for Harris, many in the establishment media and other institutions capable of holding her accountable appear more willing to revise history to protect her than offer any criticism to flourish.

Most recently, a scorecard ranking Harris as the “most liberal” senator during her time in that chamber has disappeared entirely from the internet.

The webpage, belonging to congressional tracking site GovTrack, was live as late as June. An archived version of the post shows exactly what was thrown into the memory hole.

“These year-end statistics cover [Harris’] record during the 2019 legislative year (Jan 3, 2019-Dec 31, 2019) and compare her to other senators serving at the end of that period,” an archived version of the post reads, adding it was last updated in 2020.

What the scorecard revealed is damning for Harris’ hopes of presenting herself as anything other than a radically partisan candidate.

Compared to all senators, GovTrack ranked her as the “most politically left.”

According to the site’s archived page, Harris “joined bipartisan bills the least often compared to Senate Democrats.”

The missing page also noted: “Of the 471 bills that Harris cosponsored, 15% were introduced by a legislator who was not a Democrat.”

Her track record only gets worse from there.

The site records her as being tied among sophomore senators for the fewest committee positions, sitting on a grand total of zero committees and subcommittees.

She was also listed as the third most absent senator, only bothering to appear for 61.9 percent of the 2019 session’s votes.

Perhaps most telling of all is the fact that Harris introduced the second most number of bills compared to other Senate sophomores, yet she was only able to push three of these through committee — making her second-to-last out of her colleagues.

Despite the critical nature of this information in regards to the upcoming election, GovTrack has completely removed this page from the internet. Users, including potential voters, trying to access the damning webpage now will only see a “page not found” notice.

GovTrack does still maintain a page for Harris, but you won’t find any of the dismal rankings included on their censored scorecard.

The current page ranks three senators as being more liberal than Harris and highlights the bills she has introduced to the Senate.

It’s not just Harris’ time in the Senate that needs liberal revising to be palatable to the American voter.

Her appointment as the so-called “border czar” is now undergoing serious revisionism, with some outlets openly disputing that Harris was ever tasked with combating the border crisis.

The left clearly wants Kamala Harris as president, and it seems they won’t stop revising history until it happens.

Shocking Poll Finds 9% of “Likely US Voters” That Voted in 2020 Were Not US Citizens or “Not Sure”

Shocking Poll Finds 9% of “Likely US Voters” That Voted in 2020 Were Not US Citizens or “Not Sure”

The destructive border policies of Joe Biden and his ‘border czar’ Kamala Harris have allowed over 10 million illegal immigrants to cross over our southern border and move about the country after immediately cancelling numerous Trump era policies in 2021.  These illegals were typically given a court date, often times years into the future, to come back for their asylum hearing while remaining free to roam about the country in the meantime.

In addition to creating a massive drain on local and state governments tasked with providing for these illegal migrants, another major problem has arisen:  voter registration.  With automatic voter registration and motor voter registration in many states, including Georgia, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, Pennsylvania, California, and New York, anyone who obtains a drivers license, or in some cases engages with almost any government entity, may be registered to vote, often times unbeknownst to them.  In some cases, not only are they registered unknowingly, but laws have been enacted to release them of liability if they are sent a ballot and ‘accidentally’ vote.

In addition to illegal immigrants, there are also an estimated 12.7 million green card holders in the United States.  These individuals can obtain Social Security numbers, drivers licenses, and other government benefits.  But they are not permitted to vote in federal elections.

However, the Electronic Registration Information Center’s (ERIC) Membership Agreement has a loophole that could enable illegal voters to unintentionally register through automatic voter registration.  The private party voter registration system is used by 24 states and DC with 41.7 million voter records and “62 million potential voters identified,” according to their website.

ERIC’s bylaws explicitly forbid states from sending citizenship information to ERIC to register voters in their state.  ERIC’s own bylaws under Exhibit A (pg. 17) in the Membership Agreement read:

Under no circumstances shall the Member transmit an individual’s record where the record contains documentation or other information indicating that the individual is a non-citizen of the United States.

Earlier this month, House Democrats rallied against a bill brought by Republicans that would require proof of citizenship in order to vote in federal elections.  Two weeks ago, despite opposition from the Democrats, the House passed the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act and sent it to the US Senate, where it likely will not pass the Democrat-controlled chamber.

A new Rasmussen poll taken before the assassination attempt on President Trump and the resignation from the 2024 Democrat ticket by Joe Biden shows a shocking result.  The poll shows the top issues still remain the economy (27%) and the border (20%).  However, the demographic polled is interesting.

Rasmussen also asked 2,466 the typical questions in an election year poll, however, they also asked about citizenship status.  Respondents either answered “Yes,” “No,” or “Not sure.”

Out of 2,466 respondents, 131 responded with “No” and 91 responded “Not sure” regarding their citizenship.  This accounts for just over 9% of those polled in a healthy sample size.  Mark Mitchell of Rasmussen points out that these are numbers of people who voted in 2020, before the influx of illegal immigrants at our southern border, and was a poll of “likely US voters.”  These numbers are statistically significant and can easily sway an election one way or another.

Why would Democrats then continue to try and block a bill requiring proof of citizenship?  Well, in the words of X, Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk, “Because they want to cheat.”

Fox News reporter Peter Doocy confronted White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre about Kamala Harris’ role as Biden’s “border czar.”

The new talking points went out after Kamala Harris stole Joe Biden’s delegates ahead of the DNC convention.

All of a sudden fake news reporters are claiming Kamala Harris was never Joe Biden’s ‘border czar.’

The Democrats want to distance Kamala Harris from Biden’s failed border policies.

However, it’s backfiring spectacularly.

Peter Doocy brought the receipts to Thursday’s press briefing.

“Democrats on Capitol Hill are being handed this card with talking points about the Vice President and the border. Do you know who’s handing these out?” Fox News reporter Peter Doocy asked Karine Jean-Pierre as he held up the receipts.

“Vice President Harris was never appointed Border Czar. There’s never been such a position, it doesn’t exist,” Doocy said reading off talking point one.

“I have no idea,” KJP said.

“We are going to debunk the false characterization of the Vice President. She was not a border czar. Independent fact-checkers have said the same thing, that that did not exist, and that that is not true,” Karine Jean-Pierre told Doocy.

Rupert Murdoch in Legal Battle With Own Children to Preserve Media Empire’s Conservative Bent

Rupert Murdoch in Legal Battle With Own Children to Preserve Media Empire’s Conservative Bent
July 26, 2024

Media mogul Rupert Murdoch is in a legal battle with his own children to preserve the conservative outlook of his media companies after his death.

According to a sealed document obtained by The New York Times, Murdoch is seeking to change the terms of his family’s trust in order to prevent his liberal offspring from changing the political stance of his media companies when he has passed away.

The Times reports:

Mr. Murdoch, 93, set the drama in motion late last year, when he made a surprise move to change the terms of the Murdochs’ irrevocable family trust to ensure that his eldest son and chosen successor, Lachlan, would remain in charge of his vast collection of television networks and newspapers.

The trust currently hands control of the family business to the four oldest children when Mr. Murdoch dies. But he is arguing in court that only by empowering Lachlan to run the company without interference from his more politically moderate siblings can he preserve its conservative editorial bent, and thus protect its commercial value for all his heirs.

However, Murdoch’s children are now fighting back against their father, as the report continues:

Those three siblings — James, Elisabeth and Prudence — were caught completely off-guard by their father’s effort to rewrite what was supposed to be an inviolable trust and have united to stop him. Lachlan has joined on Mr. Murdoch’s side. Remarkably, the ensuing battle has been playing out entirely out of public view.

Last month, the Nevada probate commissioner found that Mr. Murdoch could amend the trust if he is able to show he is acting in good faith and for the sole benefit of his heirs, according to a copy of his 48-page decision.

A trial to determine whether Mr. Murdoch is in fact acting in good faith is expected to start in September. Hanging in the balance will be the future of one of the most politically influential media companies in the English-speaking world.

While the battle plays out among his eldest siblings, Murdoch has two other children with his former wife Wendy Craig who will presumably also be looking for their slice of their inheritance, which is estimated at $20 billion.

Murdoch stepped down as chairman of News Corporation and now serves as its chairman emiritus. and has an estimated net worth of around $20 billion. Its most prominent titles include Fox News, The Wall Street Journal, The New York Post and The Times of London.

Watch: Prince Harry Breaks Down Family Rift in Rare Interview, Says ‘Abuse’ from Media Has Kept Him Quiet

Watch: Prince Harry Breaks Down Family Rift in Rare Interview, Says ‘Abuse’ from Media Has Kept Him Quiet
July 26, 2024

Framing himself as a bold man of principle who confronted the media when other family members would not, Prince Harry said the battle with Britain’s tabloids exacerbated tensions that led to a chasm between him and his family.

ITV interviewer Rebecca Barry asked about the battle against tabloids the royal said crossed the line in the snooping, in which Harry was awarded damages last year.

“I think that’s certainly a central piece to it,” Harry said in a video snippet of the interview posted to X.  He did not elaborate further.

“But that’s a hard question to answer, because anything I say about my family results in a torrent of abuse from the press,” he added.

“I’ve made it very clear that this is something that needs to be done, it would be nice if we did it as a family,” Harry continued.

Harry, who elsewhere had said disapproval over his marriage to Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, was a critical cause of the estrangement, said he was waging a necessary battle.

“I believe that from a service standpoint and when you’re in a public role, these are the things that we should be doing for the greater good. I’m doing this for my reasons,” he said.

Asked to comment on the decision by other family members not to join him, Harry answered obliquely.

“I think everything that’s played out has shown people what the truth of the matter is,” Harry said.

He added: “For me, the mission continues. But it has, it has, it’s caused, as you say, part of the rift.”

A report in The New York Times citing Harry’s lawsuit against News Group Newspapers indicated there was a “secret agreement,” that led to the royal family not making legal claims against the publication in exchange for keeping embarrassing details private that the tabloids found out about through intercepted voice mail messages.

In his new interview, Harry put a new twist on the maxim that when people are in fact out to get you, it is not being paranoid to suspect them of doing so, according to the U.K. Independent.

“I think paranoia is a very interesting word because yes, then it could be paranoia, but then when you’re vindicated it proves that you weren’t being paranoid. You know, same with my mother,” he said, referring to Diana, Princess of Wales, who died in 1997 in a car accident that followed a chase to elude photographers.

“You know, there is evidence to suggest that she was being hacked in the mid-nineties, probably one of the first people to be hacked and yet still today, the press, the tabloid press very much enjoy painting her as being paranoid,” Harry said.

He eventually noted: “But she wasn’t paranoid, she was absolutely right of what was happening to her. And she’s not around today to find out the truth.”
