Harris the Crime Fighter?

Written by Thomas Hampson

At a campaign rally on August 1st, Kamala Harris, while simultaneously taking a shot at Donald Trump, boasted of her superior crime-fighting ability, especially of her prosecutorial experience and skills. Using a cringe-worthy fake southern accent, Harris said:

“As many of you know, before I was elected Vice President and before I was elected a United States Senator, I was an elected Attorney General and an elected District Attorney. And before that, I was a courtroom prosecutor.

GOP Must Go On The Offensive and Call Out Democrats’ Extremism to Win 2024 Elections

Written by Robert Knight

Most pundits credit the Democrats’ election victories last Tuesday to the nation’s apparently unquenchable lust for abortion.

They have a point.

Democrats kept the focus off potent issues such as crime, raging inflation, millions of illegal immigrants, the war on domestic energy production, and President Biden’s bizarre behavior.

“ACLU Rule” Will Make Chicago Heroin Heaven

Written by Russ Stewart
