If there’s anyone who can make slow Joe Biden look like only the second most brain-dead person in the White House and Democratic Party, then it’s the vapid veep, Vice President Kamala Harris. Known for giving “word salad” speeches in which she speaks much but says little, Kamala has a way of looking like a complete ignoramus.
Such was the case yet again when she attempted to speak about the internet during a speech about fighting online harassment, saying, in a much-derided part of her speech, that “ Well, the internet is an essential part of life in the 21st century. Can’t get around it! Can’t get around without it! ”
Watch that here: Thank you, Kamala, very cool!
While Kamala looked the fool in that part of her speech, the rest of it was even worse, not because she sounded as vapid but because her hand wringing and peal-clutching over people being mean on the internet is a clear attempt to give the government more power to regulate speech on the internet in the name of combatting “homophobia” or “stopping Asian hate” or whatever other “current thing” gives them the cover to censor.
At one point, for instance, Kamala gave a long summary of how mean people are on the internet, saying:
One in three women under the age of 35 report being sexually harassed online. Over half of the LGBTQ+ people in our country are survivors of severe harassment.
Nearly one in four Asian Americans report being called an offensive name, usually motivated by racism — being called an offensive name online. And Black people who have been harassed online in our country are three times more likely to be targeted, again, because of their race.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
