CNN’s Campaign Stop for Harris/Walz Team

Al Ritter

Under the guise of a true unscripted interview Harris and her emotional support puppy, assistant coach Tim Walz gave a prerecorded and edited interview that didn’t even last 18 minutes. We are told that the original interview was close to an hour but was edited down to a mere 18 minutes. 

Dana Bash as usual handed the mostly soft ball questions to Harris and to be honest her answers were incoherent at best, in her typical word salad replies.

Bash at one point tried to point out her flip flops on specific issues but Harris doubled down on denials, sadly Bash didn’t push the issue.

CNN has refused to give a transcript of the full hour long interview, no big surprise here either.

The 18 minutes was broken up by what appeared to be campaign ads for Harris.

This just proves that CNN can’t be taken seriously as a news organization, they have now shown that they are merely a propaganda arm of the DNC.

Harris’s “Vanity Wall”

Al Ritter

In January 2019 Kamala Harris referred to the southern border that President Trump was building as a “vanity wall.” She insinuated it was basically something with no purpose other than a photo op for President Trump.

Oh how things have changed since then it seems that lately Kamala Harris is taking a page from Joe Biden’s plagiarism book. Two weeks ago it was Trump’s “no taxation on tips” that she stole and claimed as her own.

This week we can only assume that through internal polling the Dems have finally recognized the two top things that American voters are concerned about the most is the economy and the crisis at the border both of which Biden and Harris created together.

As a result Harris has now said that she wants to start on the wall again! Almost 4 years in the position of failed Border Czar and now she finally sees that Trump’s wall is the real answer.

Watch the video about her flip flop:

“I don’t get no Respect!”

Al Ritter

In the immortal words of Rodney Dangerfield, Robert F Kennedy Jr could be the poster child for Rodney’s famous words.

First off he was thrown out of the Democratic Party by the elites that denied him his birth right to challenge a mentally challenged incumbent President whom the whole party claimed was competent enough to serve 4 more years. We now know how that turned out!

Next he was denied Secret Service Protection by Biden’s Mayorkas until the very last day they could deny him because he passed all the thresholds for protection.

His entire Democratic party has claimed he’s a wacko vaccine denier even though he has sued many major drug companies and won decisions for his clients.

His own family disrespects him now because he gave his support to Donald Trump when in fact it was his support to give and not his family.

RFK Jr. didn’t leave the Democratic Party the Democratic Party left him out in the cold.

Now he’s faced with yet another problem. Mayorkas has removed his Secret Service Detail.

 Their reasoning is that he has pulled out of the Presidential campaign. He has removed his name from the ballot in 10 swing states but still remains on 40 of the 50 states ballots. I think it’s because he chose to endorse Trump and not Harris. Let it be known that RFK Jr never formally ended his candidacy for president.

This poor guy is the poster child for political abuse and all he wants to do is make America better.

Pelosi: “We are very discreet, reptilian, and cold blooded."

 Al Ritter

It’s nice to know when someone finally admits to their underhanded tactics. Nancy Pelosi didn’t just have a slip of the tongue at the DNC convention when she uttered the words, “We are very discreet, reptilian, and cold blooded.” It wasn’t the first time she had said them.

She then proudly announced those words on Anderson Cooper’s show in September of 2023.

She repeated those words at the DNC convention with a gleam in her eye as if this revelation was some sort of badge of courage.

With Nancy Pelosi and her latest lap dog Rep. Jamie Raskin, they both seem to have adopted the idea that “the end always justifies the means.”

Neither will stop at any attempt to keep Donald Trump from being reelected to the Presidency.

In fact their tactics in my opinion enter into the illegal category. That’s just my opinion now, but keep your eyes open for a bombshell in October.

Little Jamie has already claimed that if Trump is elected he will move to invoke the 14 Amendment while the electoral votes are being counted to brand Trump as an insurrectionist (which he’s never been charged with.)

If you really think about it Raskin, as part of the Jan 6^th committee tried to claim that Trump had done the exact same thing that he wants to do if Trump gets reelected, that is to disrupt the counting of the Electoral College votes!

Harris’s Plan to fight Price Gouging

 Al Ritter

In true Marxist fashion Harris is blaming the grocery stores for price gouging when in fact it was policies from the Whitehouse that have caused extreme inflation.

Tech legend David Friedberg explains and breaks down her Marxist plan in graphs that anyone can understand.

The grocery business works on one of the smallest profit margins in the retail industry.

Standard markups are usually in the 2% area, and Kamala Harris is accusing them of price gouging?

Who is anyone to accuse a system of capitalism of making too much money? When you work on a 2% margin you have to make up the difference in volume, and that is basically what the grocery industry does.

Some places such as COSTCO work on 0% markup! They make their money through the membership fees!

These claims from the Harris camp are not only irresponsible they are downright lies aimed at projection….to make someone else the scapegoat rather than placing the blame where it needs to be placed. The Biden/Harris administration!

How about we go after taxation as price gouging.

Real Estate Market Crash on the horizon for the next President

 Al Ritter

Everyone remembers the market and housing crash of 2008 where people were defaulting on mortgages they couldn’t afford caused by an over inflated market spurned by the easily acquired loans forced by the feds. Later in this crisis Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac took a tremendous hit and many big banks were bailed out at taxpayer expense.

The market has these cyclical trends every 18 years or so that the government calmly refers to as “market corrections.” The facts usually point to something different, I like to refer to them as the government “shooting themselves in the foot.”

Covid had a devastating effect on every part of the economy, but this time it had effect on commercial real estate. Because a large percentage of the work force was forced to work from home, commercial property rentals were drying up. The largest group of commercial real estate mortgage lenders are not big banks, but rather small banks.

For commercial property owners they are in dire straits now with mortgages due but no rental income. Defaulting the loan back to the bank only exacerbates the problem in the community and the national economy. Now the small bank not only has to absorb the loss of yearly revenue but also the loss in value of the property vs. the original loan value.

This part of the real estate market represents a $1.2 trillion dollar debt for future taxpayers starting in 2025.

We haven’t even addressed the residential housing market which is sure to follow suit. In the first quarter of 2014 the average home in America sold for $275,000. In the third quarter of 2023, not even 10 years later the average home price had ballooned to $417,000 and along with it came a massive increase of mortgage rate increases.

Ever see those ads on TV or social media where offer to “Buy your home, any condition any price?” These are ads for large investment groups such as Blackrock that buy up homes and do only minor renovations then get huge incentives from government to rent out that housing for use as section 8 housing. When the market bubble breaks those investment groups bail out like rats off a ship and flood the market with residential inventory.

Such is the case in Florida right now as these investment groups are bailing out, or should I say trying to bail out. They are willing to place these properties on the market at a loss to contain the bleeding, but here’s the catch. They have to actually find buyers not just list the property.

This all comes in the face of a new plan proposed by VP Harris to build 3 million new homes and offer first time home buyers a $25,000 credit towards that purchase at a cost of $1.7 trillion dollars over a decade and could balloon to $2 trillion if made permanent? Why would you add homes to a rapidly increasing residential inventory that has yet to see the bottom prices?

In the accompanying video you will see that even at the perceived fire sale prices the investment has set, the property has been on the market for 6 months. This signals that the bottom price has yet to be reached and will continue to fall until a final purchaser agreement has been reached.

When will liars understand the power of video?

 Al Ritter

40 years ago it was easy to lie. The capabilities of a cell phone were limited to just phone calls tethered to a vehicle or a huge battery pack. If you were a celebrity of sorts TV cameras were seemingly always in your face from the 70’s up until today. To put it specifically, today everyone is vulnerable to exposure for telling a lie, because everyone with a cell phone has the ability to record video and voice. But media cameras can be even more damaging as you will see.

This brings us to the exposure of Jon Karl an ABC reporter who sought to call out JD Vance in an interview when Vance labelled Kamala Harris as Biden’s “Border Czar.” To which Karl proclaimed “You know she’s not actually--- she wasn’t the border czar was she?” Vance quickly corrected him.

Now there is actual video of Biden proclaiming Harris as the border czar, along with 60 other left leaning publications claiming so. But Karl was merely towing the left's narrative of gas lighting (don’t believe anything your lying eyes show you.)

What Karl hadn’t planned on however is video of him personally claiming her as the new border czar just 1 year earlier. I suppose Karl's memory is just as bad as Biden's.

Sux to be caught in your own lie doesn’t it Jon?

The nerve of this guy is beyond compare!

Al Ritter

In Joe Biden’s most recent interview, he claimed that when Trump was in office the KKK didn’t have to wear their hoods anymore because they had a friend in Trump!

This comment is wrong on so many levels but the falsehood needs to be explained. In the 70’s to 2010 upon his death, Sen Robert Byrd D-WV was close personal friends with then Sen. Joe Biden. Now I want to say this correctly because it’s been fact checked before and claimed false merely because Byrd’s title in the KKK was misrepresented as “grand wizard.” His true title was “Exalted Cyclops.”

Now if we add that to all the racist comments Biden has said in the past, we can clearly see that Joe Biden was the real friend to the KKK during not only his senate tenure, but probably as VP and later Presidency.

As I have said before lying in a campaign was declared legal in the Supreme Court ruling  Susan B Anthony List vs Driehaus under the guise of “freedom of speech.”

Projection is becoming a popular word in the election also, that when you claim your opponent is doing something, when it fact they are actually the perpetrating the same thing on you.

The list of lies told by Biden are quite extensive and easily documentable, as are his racist remarks.

Take a look at the last ad that Biden approved just days ahead of his stepping down for reelection and see how many lies he told.

“I’m not stepping down unless God himself asks me.”

Al Ritter

Those were the spoken words from Joe Biden a month before he stepped down and handed the campaign over to Kamala Harris.

14 million voters had their vote disenfranchised that day. This was definitely a political coup masterminded by a few in office and a few out of office.

Obviously Biden’s God had taken the form of Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer and Barack Obama.

How Nancy Pelosi still holds the clout she does seems baffling to me. What is clear however is that the Democrats constantly push the idea that a vote for Trump is a vote against democracy, and yet they refuse to see that a political coup destroys democracy.

Watch Biden’s interview where he admits it was a coup:

Stolen Valor? Not so fast.

 Al Ritter

To begin with I am not a Tim Walz fan but I feel that this claim of stolen valor might not hold much credence.

The Stolen Valor act signed into law in 2006 by President George Bush was later declared to be Unconstitutional by the Ninth Circuit Court in 2010 in the case of United States v. Alvarez. It was declared Unconstitutional based on freedom of speech.

Subsequently a later replacement of the Act was signed into law in 2013 by President Barack Obama. This revision included the following wording.

The Stolen Valor Act of 2013 amends the federal criminal code to rewrite provisions relating to fraudulent claims about military service to subject to a fine, imprisonment for not more than one year, or both for an individual who, with intent to obtain money, property, or other tangible benefit, fraudulently holds himself or herself out to be a recipient of:

·         Medal of Honor

·         Distinguished Service Cross

·         Navy Cross

·         Air Force Cross

·         Silver Star

·         Bronze Star

·         Purple Heart

·         Combat Action Ribbon

·         Combat Infantryman's Badge

·         Combat Action Badge

·         Combat Medical Badge

·         Combat Action Medal

·         Or any replacement or duplicate medal for such medal as authorized by law.

 

As you can see the violator has to not only represent themselves as a holder of specific medals but would also include a tangible benefit from such a claim.

Although Walz has walked a very narrow tightrope on his claims of service I don’t see where he has claimed that he possesses any of the afore mentioned medals, badges, crosses. His false claim of holding a specific rank upon his retirement is not grounds for violation. His claim of being in war without representation of combat badges isn’t either.

This claim of stolen valor is great for conversation in a campaign but I fear it is much ado about nothing.

Gov. Tim Walz, certainly a curious choice

 Al Ritter

One has to wonder if Tim Walz was Harris’s pick or was he chosen by the same people that instituted the Biden coup?

Honestly the Minnesota Governor doesn’t offer the Harris campaign much in the way of votes, Harris already had that state in the bag. Walz doesn’t offer much in the way of a more moderate stance in policy. He is every bit the radical leftist that Harris is.

They both believe the same things, so all I can say is that, they would just be congratulating each other on bad policy choices.

However the biggest elephant in the room is who Harris didn’t pick. Harris didn’t pick Gov. Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania. Shapiro has a 61% favorable rating and could have been the key to delivering the swing state of Pennsylvania to the Harris campaign.

The question is…Why wasn’t he chosen over Walz?

I think that this can be explained by exposing the massive hypocrisy in the Democratic Party of late. Although they claim to be the party of diversity, equity, and inclusion, their actions speak quite differently.

There was no DEI considered when picking Walz, Gov. Josh Shapiro wasn’t picked because he is Jewish. The Democrats are siding with the people of Gaza, and as a result the anti-Semitism rampant increase is a product of the radical left.

So Josh Shapiro is a mere casualty in their war against Jews.

Does it make sense? I really don’t think it does when you look at the overall picture because the Democratic Party has made a stance against Jews that may very well sink their party based on racism.

The very thing they accuse everyone else of that doesn’t agree with them!

Once again Biden attempts an end run around the Constitution

 Al Ritter

Once again Joe Biden is attempting to excuse student loans through some back door attempt to circumvent Congressional appropriation.

This isn’t the first time Biden has attempted this. The last time it made it all the way to the Supreme Court filed under the HEROES Act, a 9/11 era law that would allow the Secretary of Education to reallocate funds under an emergency status,  (Covid at the time). Biden is attempting once again to fund this plan through the Dept of Education.

Chief Justice John Roberts questioned the validity of allowing one person the power to make such a decision without Congressional approval. The House has always held the purse strings on spending, and Biden knew that such student loan forgiveness would have never been granted by Congress, so he attempted an end run on the Constitution once again.

This isn’t the first time that Biden has attempted to ignore the Judicial and Legislative branches of government. When our Constitutional Republic was formed each branch was given equal power. Nowhere is it said the Executive branch holds more power than either of the other two. I wrote an article several years ago on the question if the Supreme Court could charge someone with criminal contempt of court.

The resounding answer is yes! All courts can charge someone with either criminal or civil contempt. So my question is…what back door opening is Biden trying to wiggle through this time?

If he’s using a certain department to undermine a Supreme Court Decision why can’t the Supreme Court charge that department head of criminal contempt? You know damn well if it was an individual like you or me we’d be hauled right into court and go to jail. A civil contempt would be an exercise in futility because the Judge would only fine the offender and the government would have pay that out of taxpayer funds.

Personally I’d love to see Dept. of Education head Miguel Cardona to be charged with Contempt of Court issued by Chief Justice John Roberts, but we know that will never happen, they would rather waste more of the taxpayer’s money running this farce through the court system. It’s almost certain to end up in a law suit once again that will never be decided before Biden leaves office.

Update: Well that didn't take long the 8th circuit court put a stay on Biden's plan after seven states request a halt
