Biden Admin Obstructing Investigations Into Trafficking, Exploitation Of Migrant Children, Report Finds

The Biden-Harris administration is obstructing congressional and state investigations into the exploitation and trafficking of unaccompanied alien children, a Senate committee report found.

Louisiana GOP Sen. Bill Cassidy, a ranking member of the Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, released a report Tuesday that accuses the Biden-Harris administration of widespread “failures” that ultimately led to widespread abuse and exploitation of migrant children. The report also accused the White House of “stonewalling” Congressional oversight into its handling of these unaccompanied alien children and obstructing other state investigations.

“When Ranking Member Cassidy attempted to hold the Biden-Harris administration accountable, the administration made every effort to cover its failures up and to stonewall each new oversight effort — a course of action that continues today,” the report said.

“The administration also refuses to comply with state-level efforts to investigate and prevent the trafficking and exploitation of [unaccompanied children] caused by its own weak sponsor vetting policies and the chaos,” the report said.

The report cited instances when Cassidy’s office “routinely” submitted letters to Health and Human Services (HHS) requesting information on the care that unaccompanied children receive within the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR), the vetting of sponsors, and how ORR operates to ensure these migrant children are safe after their release. However, the report claims HHS would repeatedly take months to respond to these requests — and sometimes the department would not respond at all.

Kamala Harris Way in Front of 2028 Democrat Presidential Contenders

Kamala Harris leads her closest potential 2028 Democrat presidential contender by 33 points, according to polling from Echelon Insights. . .

On one side of the scenario, you can see why Democrat voters still support her, even after her decisive loss to President-elect Donald Trump two weeks ago. She still has the best name recognition. She’s been vice president for four years. She never worked at McDonald’s. She received 74 million votes. You can also argue that with only a little over 100 days to pull a campaign together, she did pretty well.

On the other side of the argument is the fact that Democrats have a pretty weak field. Newsom has done a terrible job governing California. Buttigieg is a weirdo who failed as transportation secretary. Walz is even weirder. Shapiro is Jewish, and that’s a problem for the pro-Hamas wing of the party.

Above all, who gazes upon Kamala Harris and sees her as ready for another run at a presidential campaign? Her first attempt to become president in 2020 was such a disaster she ended up dropping out before a single vote was cast. And while you can sympathize with Kamala being thrust into the middle of the 2024 campaign without much notice, one fact remains: she never improved as a candidate.

Kamala Harris’ Campaign Paid Oprah Winfrey’s Production Company Nearly $2.5 Million for Celeb-Packed Town Hall — Over Double Initial Estimate

Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign shelled out nearly $2.5 million to Oprah Winfrey’s production company for the celeb-packed town hall it hosted — more than double the initial estimate reported.

It was originally surmised that Winfrey’s company Harpo Productions had been paid around $1 million for the talk show legend’s September town hall with Harris, but a new report shows that the dollar amount was greatly underestimated.

Two people familiar with the matter told the New York Times that Winfrey’s company had actually been paid closer to $2.5 million — still a mere fraction of Harris’ estimated $1.5 billion campaign spending.

The famous TV star has denied receiving any personal payments from the Democrat’s team and a former adviser to the Harris campaign also said they did not pay anyone for their appearances or support.

Winfrey said she did not pocket any of the money and used it to pay her team. She also noted that the Harris team was charged for what they required for the town hall.

Jill Biden Gives Kamala Harris the Cold Shoulder After Husband Joe Was Forced Out of Race the VP Lost to Trump (VIDEO)

By Daily Mail. It’s an unseasonably warm 72 degrees in Washington, D.C. today – but conditions looked downright icy in the VIP viewing area at Arlington National Cemetery.

Jill Biden, eyes hidden behind sunglasses, looked stoic as she sat next to Kamala Harris while her husband, President Joe Biden delivered his Veterans Day address.

The first lady stared straight ahead as the vice president grinned and leaned into husband Doug Emhoff, who sat on her other side. . .

But now the votes have been tallied and the results show Harris lost to Donald Trump in a landslide, leaving the Harris camp and Biden allies to blame one another for the Democrats’ epic Election Day defeats.

Veterans Day marked the first time President Biden and Vice President Harris saw one another since the election. (Read more from “Jill Biden Gives Kamala Harris the Cold Shoulder After Husband Joe Was Forced Out of Race the VP Lost to Trump (VIDEO)” HERE)

Biden, Kamala Harris Make First Public Appearance Together Since Election as Stone-Faced Jill Looks On

By New York Post. Lame-duck President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris appeared in public together Monday for the first time since the veep’s loss to President-elect Donald Trump — making a joint visit to Arlington National Cemetery for a Veterans Day event.

Biden, 81, and Harris, 60, participated in a wreath-laying ceremony ahead of the retiring president’s remarks hailing military service members and their families — as the defeated Democratic nominee looked on from the stands with an expressionless first lady Jill Biden on her left.

Harris, who did not speak, wore a similarly stoic expression before swapping smiles with her husband, Douglas Emhoff — seated on her other side — just six days after losing to Trump, 78, whom she denounced last month as a “fascist” who threatened American democracy.

“This is the moment to come together as a nation, to keep faith in each other,” Biden said in what appeared to be a reference to the Republican takeover of the White House and Congress in last Tuesday’s election.

Kamala Harris’ Ex-Communications Director Says Biden Should Resign in Wild Scheme To Make Her First Female President: ‘Turn Tables on Trump’

Vice President Kamala Harris‘ former communications director floated a wild plan to make her the first female commander-in-chief — all President Biden has to do is resign.

Jamal Simmons, who served as part of Harris’ team from 2022 until 2023, urged Biden to step aside so that Harris could make history — even despite her massive defeat to President-elect Donald Trump.

“Joe Biden has been amazing but he should fulfill one last promise — to be transitional. Biden should resign and make Kamala Harris the first woman president,” Simmons posted on X.

“It’d turn [the] tables on Trump, keep Kamala from presiding over Jan. 6 make it easier for next woman to run.”

The former spox-turned-CNN commentator made a similar plea on air Sunday, prompting laughter from his conservative colleague Scott Jennings.

Stupid: Leftist Women Announce Strategy To Retaliate Against Men Who Voted Trump

“Disgruntled” women who wanted Kamala Harris to be elected president, and who wanted Republican men to vote for her, have come up with a scheme to retaliate against those men.

They have announced a campaign for no “sex, dating, marriage and having children” with those men for four years.

It is the Telegraph that explained the idea comes from a previous stunt by Korean women.

The report said, ‘Liberal women have sworn to go on sex strike over Donald Trump’s election win. Mr. Trump swept to victory in Tuesday’s presidential race that Democrats cast as a referendum on abortion rights and protections for women.”

In fact, it was the Joe Biden-Kamala Harris administration that pushed its abortion-for-all, and also transgenderism for children, ideologies into all parts of American government, even foreign policy.

Report: Kamala Harris Blew $20 Million on Election-Eve Concerts With Lady Gaga, Katy Perry in Swing States Where Trump Beat Her

Amid the stunning revelation that Kamala Harris’ unsuccessful presidential campaign ended up $20 million in the red, despite raising $1 billion from donors, a new report has found that the rock concerts that her campaign staged on the night before the election — featuring Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, and others — collectively cost around that same amount, up to $20 million.

Now vendors and others who worked on those concerts, which were meant to persuade “low-propensity voters” to turn out for Harris, are reportedly facing the prospect of unpaid invoices.

Members of the defeated Harris team told The New York Post that the concerts had a ruinous effect on the campaign’s budget and that fact was no secret — with one planned performance by rocker Alanis Morissette getting canceled to save money.

In the end, the Kamala Harris campaign staged seven swing-state concerts on election eve, including performances by Jon Bon Jovi in Detroit, Christina Aguilera in Las Vegas, Katy Perry in Pittsburgh, and Lady Gaga in Philadelphia.

All of those swing states ended up in President-elect Donald Trump’s win column on Election Day. (Read more from “Report: Kamala Harris Blew $20 Million on Election-Eve Concerts With Lady Gaga, Katy Perry in Swing States Where Trump Beat Her” HERE)

Joe Rogan Claims Kamala Harris Campaign Asked if He Edits Interviews

Joe Rogan, host of The Joe Rogan Experience, recently discussed how the campaign for Vice President Kamala Harris sought to impose certain topic “restrictions” and inquired whether he edits his interviews, during an episode of his podcast. Rogan revealed that the Harris campaign had explored the possibility of having the vice president appear on his show to help boost her appeal among male voters, according to a Reuters report from October 15.

On the podcast, Rogan explained that while he agreed to some of the proposed restrictions, he made it clear that there would be no editing of the interview. “They had a few topics they didn’t want to talk about, but I told them, ‘I don’t give a f**k.’ I said, ‘Get her in here, whatever you want to talk about,’” Rogan shared. He added, “And then they asked me if I edit the interviews. I told them, ‘There’s not going to be any editing. We’re not going to edit.’”

Fellow podcast host Theo Von, who was part of the conversation, chimed in, confirming that the Harris campaign had asked the same question about editing. “Yeah, that’s the same thing they asked us, ‘Is there an edit?’” Von said.

Rogan also took to X (formerly Twitter) on October 29 to reveal that the Harris campaign had suggested he travel to her location to record the interview. However, he strongly believed that it would be better for the vice president to come to his studio in Austin, Texas. On the following episode of his podcast on October 30, Rogan shared that he had extended an “open invitation” to Harris to appear on the show during her visit to Texas for an October 25 rally. However, she did not take him up on the offer.

Rogan’s podcast is known for its long-form, unfiltered conversations, and it gained widespread attention when President-elect Donald Trump appeared as a guest on October 25. The episode, which lasted for three hours, has garnered over 47 million views on YouTube as of Friday.

Reflecting on his approach to interviews, Rogan explained, “I just wanted to talk… I feel like you give someone a couple of hours, and you start talking about anything, I’m going to see the pattern of the way you think. I’m gonna see how you process ideas, whether you’re calculated or just free. Whether you’re comfortable with yourself or projecting something.”

Kamala Harris Quoted One Of Hitler’s Favorite Writers In Her Concession Speech

Like lots of Americans, I tuned in Wednesday afternoon to hear Kamala Harris’ belated concession speech. I had low expectations for what she was going to say, but the spectacle of Harris graciously conceding to a man she had very recently warned was an incipient fascist was too jarring not to witness.

Anyway, I found the speech pretty innocuous and unmemorable right up until the very end when, rallying the crowd for something resembling a rousing conclusion, she said this:

There’s an adage a historian once called a law of history, true of every society across the ages. The adage is, only when it is dark enough can you see the stars. I know many people feel like we are entering a dark time, but for the benefit of us all, I hope that is not the case. But here’s the thing, America, if it is, let us fill the sky with the light of a brilliant, brilliant billion of stars.

Initially what gave me pause was that, while the rest of the speech had been inoffensive pablum, this was just terrible writing. Even by the standards of speechwriting in modern politics, this jumps out as uniquely bad. Why would this trite metaphor about stars be a “law of history”? And man, I hope “the light of a brilliant, brilliant billion of stars” wasn’t the actual text of the speech, because that’s not even grammatical. It was so bad that I wonder if she wrote it herself.

But one of the main things that bothered me was the provenance of the supposed quote from a “historian.” When I griped about this passage on X, an old friend immediately wondered whether this was a misattribution of a well known Martin Luther King, Jr. quote. In his famous “I’ve been to the mountaintop” speech, MLK did say something almost verbatim: “But I know, somehow, that only when it is dark enough can you see the stars.” (Read more from “Kamala Harris Quoted One Of Hitler’s Favorite Writers In Her Concession Speech” HERE)

20 Million Dem Votes Are Missing From 2020 To 2024. Where’d They Go?

. . .Donald Trump’s lead feels so massive that it’s hard to see how Kamala Harris didn’t significantly underperform the Biden Benchmark of 2020. She didn’t just blow it; she blew it bigly.

In 2020, there were 81+ million votes cast for Biden and 74+ million cast for Trump — a grand total of over 155 million votes. Currently, there’s about 138 million total votes counted for the 2024 cycle. Trump is less than 3 million short of his 2020 benchmark, meaning the bulk of the almost 20 million vote deficit is coming from the Harris camp. Of course, votes in some of the big blue states will continue to trickle in for days (or weeks?!) after the fact, and Harris’ final count will continue to rise. But this is still a drastic difference for the morning after; where the hell did all these Biden loyalists go?

The West Coast is most glaring: Harris is over 800,000 votes short of 2020 numbers in Washington (64% reporting); 400,000 votes short in Oregon (73% reporting); 500,000 votes short in Colorado (76% reporting); and a whopping 5.5 million votes short in California (58% reporting). This will likely continue to narrow. But take California, where the split is 57% to 40% Harris. If she stays on the same trajectory, that will still put her almost 2 million shy of Biden’s 11+ million votes in the state. Even if she ramps it up to Biden’s 63% to 34%, that’s only 10.3 million votes for Harris.

Yet even states with high reporting still show Harris significantly behind. At 99% reporting, Harris is about 450,000 votes shy of Biden in Texas. At 94% reporting, she’s down almost 1 million votes in New York. She’s down about 650,000 votes in Illinois with 91% of the vote in, and down roughly the same in Florida with 99% reporting. . .

Heading up to the north, Harris trails in Maryland (82% reporting) by an additional 500,000 votes. She’s down about 200,000 votes in Virginia (99% reporting), but that has nothing on New Jersey. At 90% reporting, Harris is about 500,00 votes shy of Biden in the state. At 93% reporting, Harris is about 300,000 votes down in deep blue Massachusetts, and another 200,000 shy in Connecticut (85% reporting). In Ohio (96% reporting), she’s down roughly another 200,00 thousand votes. (Read more from “20 Million Dem Votes Are Missing From 2020 To 2024. Where’d They Go?” HERE)
