One tragedy of this election season, as with all modern election seasons, is that the Democrats’ radicalism is being hidden from the American people by a complicit establishment media. It would have been nice, then, if Wednesday’s vice presidential debate could have been a teaching moment where light was shined on Kamala Harris’s and Joe Biden’s toxic positions. Unfortunately, moderator Susan Page’s bias made this impossible.
Page, USA Today’s Washington Bureau chief, made sure to inquire about how Judge Amy Coney Barrett’s confirmation to the Supreme Court would affect abortion, exhibiting the typical leftist obsession with prenatal infanticide. She asked Vice President Mike Pence how he thought his state of Indiana should legislate on the matter were Roe v. Wade struck down (I didn’t know he was again running for the Hoosier State’s governorship). This might be a fair question — that is, if Harris had been asked about her and Biden’s radical pro-prenatal infanticide positions. Harris supports “‘abortion on demand at any time, any where [sic], and under any circumstances,’” LifeNews.com quotes president of National Right to Life Carol Tobias as relating. And both she and Biden advocate taxpayer funding of prenatal infanticide.
The point is that Pence’s and President Trump’s abortion policies align far more closely with the electorate’s wishes than does the Democrat ticket’s radicalism. But the American people couldn’t learn this truth on Wednesday — thanks, largely, to Susan Page.
That’s just the iceberg’s tip, too. This is by far the most radical Democrat presidential ticket — representing well its extremist party — to ever seek the White House. For example, here are more pressing matters a smart, diligent, responsible moderator would have inquired about at the debate:
Harris cosponsored, and Biden has promised to sign into law, the misnamed “Equality Act,” which would compel schools to allow boys to compete in girls’ sports. This is unsurprising, as the Left has been all in on the so-called “transgender” agenda, calling it bigotry to deny men access to women’s bathrooms. Why, Harris even sent a message to Sexual Devolution activists in the debate, using the phrase “every gender” in a response. (How many are there? Answer: two sexes.) This agenda’s radical demands are extremely unpopular with Americans. Yet Harris wasn’t asked about it — thanks to Susan Page.
Last April, Harris threatened to bypass Congress and infringe on gun rights via executive action. She said last September that she supported a “mandatory buyback” (read: confiscation) of certain semi-automatic rifles. Again, where was the debate question about these unpopular proposals?
Neither Biden nor Harris has ever condemned terroristic Black Lives Matter or Antifa. In fact, the domain Antifa.com still redirects to the Biden/Harris campaign page (as of this writing). Doesn’t this warrant a question, Susan Page?
Of course, asking about such things would make the Democrats look bad — but only because that badness is a reality. There also is no corresponding radicalism on the other side; Trump’s and Pence’s policies very much align with the people’s will, and more closely with Truth, while Biden’s and Harris’s policies are generally antithetical to both.
It would be nice if the American people could learn this, which brings me to maddening Republican stupidity: Why does the GOP continually agree to have leftist debate moderators? In the least, there should be two moderators, one Republican and one Democrat, with each choosing 50 percent of the questions.
As for Page, people can argue about the degree to which her bias is conscious (she is, after all, operating above her pay grade, lacking the necessary self-knowledge and wisdom to do her job). Regardless, the result is the same: Biden and Harris are allowed to retain their masks and hide their true faces from Americans.
Speaking of which brings to mind Duke’s First Rule of Politics:
Under representative government, people do not get what they want. They get what they vote for.
And Susan Page and most mainstream media, being on the Democrats’ page, make this a sure thing.
► Lie: In January the Trump administration knew the dangers of the coronavirus and did not tell the American Public…imagine if you knew on January 28th? … they knew and they covered it up.

► Lie: “You know this administration took the word ‘science’ off the website?”
Truth: The word “science” was not scrubbed from U.S. government websites by the Trump Administration, and that fact was even confirmed as not true by liberal left NBC News.
► Lie: [Donald Trump] passed a tax bill benefiting the top 1% and the biggest corporations of America.
Truth: Fact Check dot org explains that the claim is out of context, and not necessarily true. The plan to cut taxes wound up reducing the tax burden for just about everyone across the board. Later in the debate Harris claims they plan to only raise the taxes for people making $400,000 per year or more after Pence claimed Biden supports raising everyone’s taxes. Even if Kamala’s claim is true, and the increase of taxation will only affect the top earners, the tax burden would largely land on those who own businesses, or are high ranking persons in these corporations, who do the hiring, and who adjust prices of their products based on the company’s cost to do business. So, Biden’s plan would reduce hiring, and pass the tax on to the average workers (and newly unemployed) with higher prices of products … an economics lesson they have apparently never understood.
► Lie: Trump’s tax cuts led to a two trillion dollar deficit.
Truth: After the tax plan, because of the growing economy as a result of the tax cuts, federal tax revenue increased. According to the Institute for Policy Innovation, “federal revenue has consistently increased in the years after the Trump tax cuts. Despite the enormous tax cut, federal revenue increased by $10 billion in 2018, by $130 billion in 2019, and was projected to grow by even more in 2020 before the Covid-19 pandemic and its economic effects.”
► Lie: Joe Biden will only raise taxes on those who make more than $400,000 per year.
Truth: The Tax Foundation concluded Biden’s plan would lead to higher taxes “across all income groups.”
► Lie: Trump’s investment in infrastructure never happened.
► Lie: The West Coast of the United States is burning, the East Coast is being battered by storms, Iowa crops destroyed because of floods, Joe believes in science (in discussion about Climate Change) … “an existential threat to us as human beings.”
► Lie: “The Vice President earlier referred to what he thinks is an accomplishment that the president’s trade war with China. He lost that trade war. You lost it.”
Truth: One of the things Americans appreciate about President Trump is that he stands firm against those who would stand against American Liberty and American Prosperity. China is one such adversary. Therefore, President Trump has confronted China’s unfair trade practices. His administration has “successfully used tariffs to persuade China to sign a Phase One Trade Agreement that secured significant protections for American workers and businesses.” In addition to that, he got the Chinese communists to purchase an additional $32 billion in U.S. farm goods over the next two years.
► Lie: America lost 300,000 manufacturing jobs because of Trump’s trade war with China.
Truth: As of two years ago, according to Forbes, manufacturing jobs in the U.S. has increased ten times what it was during the Obama administration, thanks to Trump’s policies. Numbers have not boomed so loudly since then, but that is largely due to Democrat policies by States regarding the coronavirus scamdemic.
► Lie: The Obama-Biden Administration created within the White House an office that basically was responsible for monitoring pandemics. They [Trump] got rid of it
Truth: Multiple sources have claimed this is not true; Former NSC Senior Director Tim Morrison, Former NSC staffer Richard Goldberg, Former National Security Adviser John Bolton, and even the leftwing rag, USA Today.
► Lie: “Look at the Iran nuclear deal [regarding Trump ending it] which now has put us in a position where we are less safe because they are building up what might end up being a significant nuclear arsenal.”
Truth: Actually, the deal was designed to make it easier for Iran to achieve a nuclear arsenal. By ending the deal and increasing sanctions on Iran which has adversely affected their economy, Trump has helped quell the danger that Iran once posed during the Obama administration.
► Lie: Trump referred to severe head injuries suffered by military personnel as simply “headaches”.
Truth: President Trump was simply referring to what he had heard in a report. He said, “I heard that they had headaches and a couple of other things, but I would say, and I can report, it is not very serious.” If he had been misinformed, that is not the President downplaying the head injuries suffered by military personnel. Reports later confirmed that at least 11 U.S. soldiers had been airlifted from Iraq to medical centers in Germany and Kuwait for further evaluation and treatment of possible traumatic brain injuries from the rocket attack. When later asked about his “headaches” response in light of the new information, he stated he had been advised of the details “numerous days later,” and that regarding the severity of the injuries “you’d have to ask the Department of Defense.” Later, he stated that “No, I don’t consider them very serious injuries relative to other injuries that I’ve seen. I’ve seen what Iran has done with their roadside bombs to our troops. I’ve seen people with no legs and with no arms. I’ve seen people that were horribly, horribly injured in that area, that war. In fact, many cases those bombs [were] put there by Soleimani, who’s no longer with us.” The average person does not recognize how severe a traumatic brain injury can be because they can’t “see” it. If President Trump does underestimate the seriousness of a head trauma, he’s not alone, and the list of those who don’t give a traumatic brain injury enough credence includes a long list of medical personnel in the Veteran’s Administration system. I know this personally.
► Lie: Trump referred to our personnel in the military as “suckers and losers”.
► Lie: “In 1864 … Abraham Lincoln was up for re-election, and it was 27 days before the election. And a seat became open on the United States Supreme Court. Abraham Lincoln’s party was in charge not only of the White House but of the Senate. But Honest Abe said that it’s not the right thing to do.”
Truth: According to National Review: Lincoln, of course, said no such thing. He sent no nominee to the Senate in October 1864 because the Senate was out of session until December. He sent a nominee the day after the session began, and Salmon P. Chase was confirmed the same day. And Lincoln wanted to dangle the nomination before Chase and several other potential candidates because he wanted them to campaign for him. Lincoln’s priority was winning the election, which was necessary to win the war — and he filled the vacancy at the first possible instant. Kamala Harris is simply inventing history.
► Lie: Packing the Supreme Court.
Truth: While Harris and Biden have essentially dodged the question about packing the Supreme Court, and Harris tried to make it seem like it was not something she would consider during the debate, Harris in the past has indicated that she is open to the idea.
► Lie: [Trump] has refused to condemn white supremacists.
► Lie: “He called Mexicans rapists and criminals.”
Truth: This same claim was made during the Vice Presidential debate in 2016, as well. Breitbart reported, back then, In his June 16, 2015 speech announcing his run for the presidency, Donald Trump said the following: When do we beat Mexico at the border? They’re laughing at us, at our stupidity. And now they are beating us economically. They are not our friend, believe me. But they’re killing us economically. The U.S. has become a dumping ground for everybody else’s problems. Thank you. It’s true, and these are the best and the finest. When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.
Trump was referring to “some” of the people mixed into the population of illegal aliens crossing the border.
► Lie: He [Trump] instituted as his first act a Muslim ban.
► Lie: “I was the first statewide officer to institute a requirement that my agents would wear body cameras and keep them on full-time.”
Truth: As California’s Attorney General, Harris did not mandate body cameras statewide. In fact, in 2015, Harris said that she did not believe in statewide standards for police body cameras.
► Lie: Trump will resist a peaceful transition of power.
► Lie: “If we use our voice, we will win, and we will not let anyone subvert our democracy with what Donald Trump has been doing, as he did on the main stage last week, he openly attempted to suppress the vote.”
Earlier this morning our president called-in to Fox Business for an extensive interview with Maria Bartiromo. President Trump covered a multitude of topics from the ongoing election, to the debate changes, to the efforts to get the intelligence community to declassify documents related to his three-years of targeting by deep state officials.
In March 2020, even before the DNC nominee was selected, CTH noted one of the important objectives for the use of the COVID-19 fear would be to protect their candidate through the use of the “virtual debate” format.
After the DNC club installed Joe Biden as the avatar for the Obama/Clyburn/Perez objective, again IN JUNE, we shared the presidential debate format would require deployment of “virtual debates”.
Quite simply, a cognitively impaired candidate cannot be relied upon to deliver a debate performance, so everything must be controlled. {Go Deep} Including mail-in voting.
The fact the presidential debate commission would not first approach the Trump or Biden campaign, prior to their announcement of “virtual debates”, is evidence of the commission corrupt intent:
(New York Times) […] The debate commission, which did not respond to repeated requests for comment, did not consult with the Biden and Trump campaigns before announcing the virtual format early on Thursday. The decision came after members of the commission’s production team objected to the safety risks of staging another in-person event at an indoor venue, according to a person familiar with its deliberations.
The contretemps on Thursday may pose the most significant test to the debate commission’s legitimacy since the group, a nonpartisan body, was founded in 1987. (more)
The Washington Free Beacon has done a great job exposing the intentional and manipulative intents of NBC and Lester Holt during a recent town-hall event with presidential candidate Joe Biden. At this point American media have become Pravda in their efforts to manipulate the outcome of the 2020 election. Video Recap
.Essentially what NBC did was present a pre-vetted pro-Biden audience to masquerade as independent or ‘swing voters’, and then roll-out a highly coordinated TV event as if it was occurring without a script. The problem for NBC is their brazen hubris, because the people they used in the audience as voters previously appeared on sister network MSNBC.
As a consequence there are a myriad of ideological efforts underway, simultaneously with increased intensity, intended to influence the 2020 election. Pelosi/Soros Inc. working earnestly on mail in ballots. Big Tech continues efforts to disconnect the voices of their political opposition. Big Media continues efforts to frame anti-Trump narratives to assist their political allies. The big Wall St. multinationals, including the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, are pouring money into efforts to block the re-election of President Trump.
Foreign money is pouring in from China and overseas interests who are negatively impacted by the America First national economic agenda. Regional politicians and their various special-interest groups are being funded to keep fueling antagonisms; and Hollywood influencers are ‘all-in‘ once again to assist the effort.
We can all see it;this time they are not trying to hide… Eyes wide open. Cue the coordination with the open-border immigration lobby:
GUATEMALA CITY/MEXICO CITY (Reuters) – Mexico’s president on Friday said he suspected political interference behind a new migrant caravan in Central America, promising to keep his country out of the U.S. presidential race as the group splintered and some began turning back.
More than 2,000 migrants, many wearing face masks against the coronavirus, barged past Guatemalan troops at the Honduras-Guatemala border on Thursday. Some said they were seeking to escape poverty aggravated by the pandemic.
President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, who has taken steps to curb illegal immigration so as to avoid entanglements with his U.S. counterpart Donald Trump, suggested that the caravan’s departure from Honduras had been timed to provoke.
“It is very weird, very strange,” Lopez Obrador told a news conference. “It’s a matter that I believe is linked to the U.S. election.”
He said he did not have definitive evidence to support that claim, but his words turned up pressure on the migrants. (read more)
The supreme court in Michigan has ruled that Governor Gretchen Whitmer exceeded her constitutional authority under state law in the arbitrary enforcement of her unilateral decrees to mitigate the COVID-19 virus. [pdf here] As the court wrote in the opinion rebuking the governor:
“The people of this state have been denied a voice and a seat at the table in decisions that have impacted every facet of their lives and their futures over the past eight months. They deserve to have their representatives bring their voice and their concerns into this decision-making process.”
At the heart of the governor’s legal argument was a 1945 law allowing the governor to declare a state of disaster or emergency if she finds one to exist and it remains in place for 28 days, unless the Legislature extends it. The legislature did not extend the declaration, yet the governor continued to restrict the citizens without any representative voice.
MICHIGAN – […] In the 4-3 ruling, the court determined the governor did not have the authority under state law to issue any additional emergency declarations pertaining to the pandemic after April 30. That was the last date when the legislature allowed the governor to declare an emergency.
“The governor’s declaration of a state of emergency or state of disaster may only endure for 28 days absent legislative approval of an extension. So, if the Legislature does nothing, as it did here, the governor is obligated to terminate the state of emergency or state of disaster after 28 days,” said the majority opinion, written by Judge Stephen Markman.
[…] “Put simply, and our criticism is not of the Governor in this regard but of the statute in dispute — almost certainly, no individual in the history of this state has ever been vested with as much concentrated and standardless power to regulate the lives of our people, free of the inconvenience of having to act in accord with other accountable branches of government and free of any need to subject her decisions to the ordinary interplay of our system of separated powers and checks and balances, with even the ending date of this exercise of power reposing exclusively in her own judgment and discretion,” the majority wrote.
“It is in no way to diminish the present pandemic for this Court to assert, as we now do, that with respect to the most fundamental propositions of our system of constitutional governance, with respect to the public institutions that have most sustained our freedoms over the past 183 years, there must now be some rudimentary return to normalcy.” (more)
Hold the voters in contempt by refusing to answer whether he would pack the Supreme Court with his nominees if he won the election and Democrats became the majority in the Senate.
Biden’s readiness to demean Sanders and abandon the Manifesto during the following exchange was breathtaking—and Trump was quick to take advantage:
BIDEN: My party is me.
TRUMP: And socialist health care.
BIDEN: Right now, I am the Democratic Party.
TRUMP: And they’re going to dominate you, Joe, you know that.
BIDEN: I am the Democratic Party right now. The platform of the Democratic Party—
TRUMP: Not according to Harris.
BIDEN:—is what I, in fact, approved of. What I approved of…
… TRUMP: Joe, you agreed with Bernie Sanders’s far left on the manifesto, we call it.
BIDEN: Manifesto? Look…
TRUMP: And that gives you socialized medicine.
BIDEN: Look, hey, I’m not going to listen to him. The fact of the matter is I beat Bernie Sanders…
TRUMP: Not by much.
BIDEN: I beat him by a whole hell of a lot. I’m here standing facing you, old buddy.
TRUMP: If “Pocahontas” would’ve left two days early, you would’ve lost every primary.
BIDEN: All he knows how to do is hurt…
TRUMP: On Super Tuesday, you got very lucky.
BIDEN: Look, here’s the deal. I got very lucky, I’m going to get very lucky tonight as well. And tonight I’m going to make sure because here’s the deal.
BIDEN: There is no manifesto, number one.
WALLACE: Please let him speak, Mr. President.
BIDEN: Number two…
TRUMP: You just lost the left.
BIDEN: Number two…
TRUMP: You just lost the left. You agreed with Bernie Sanders on a plan that’s absolutely…
(CROSSTALK)
TRUMP: … socialized medicine.
Biden insulted the voters’ intelligence by refusing to disclose his intentions on packing the Supreme Court:
WALLACE: All right. I have one final question for you, Mr. Vice President. If Senate Republicans—we were talking originally about the Supreme Court here. If Senate Republicans go ahead and confirm Justice Barrett, there has been talk about ending the filibuster or even packing the court, adding to the nine justices there. You called this a distraction by the president, but in fact it wasn’t brought up by the president; it was brought up by some of your Democratic colleagues in the Congress.
BIDEN: I’m saying…
WALLACE: So my question to you, is you have refused in the past to talk about it. Are you willing to tell the American people tonight whether or not you will support either ending the filibuster, or packing the court…
BIDEN: Whatever the position I take on that, that will become the issue. The issue is the American people should speak. You should go out and vote. You’re in voting now. Vote and let your senators know how strongly you feel. Vote now. Make sure you in fact let people know.
TRUMP: He doesn’t want to answer the question.
BIDEN: I’m not going to answer that question because…
TRUMP: Why wouldn’t you answer that question?
BIDEN: The question is…
(CROSSTALK)
TRUMP: The radical left…
BIDEN: Would you shut up, man?
Trump won’t be shutting up—that’s for sure.
Neither will the Republican Party as they swamp the media with ads featuring these two major Biden gaffes that will cost him millions of votes.
