And now its reputation has taken another major hit, with a judge's determination it was breaking the law by deleting information that should have been kept for government records.

The Harris Flop Would Be Scarier Than Her Flip - By Victor Davis Hanson
The Harris-Walz message is clear: “In order to run your country for the next four years, we must lie and deceive you for the next three months.”
By selecting the hard-left Walz, Harris reminds the nation who runs the Democratic Party.
It is preparing for a hard-left neo-socialist administration—while it seeks to deceive the public for the next 90 days that Harris-Walz are temporary moderates...
But if the current initial Harris-Walz flipping is embarrassing, their eventual post-November flopping back to the left will be shameless—and dangerous for the nation.
The Harris-Walz message is clear: “In order to run your country for the next four years, we must lie and deceive you for the next three months.”
But if the current initial Harris-Walz flipping is embarrassing, their eventual post-November flopping back to the left will be shameless—and dangerous for the nation.
- In 2025, under a Harris-Walz presidency, borders would again magically evaporate. Millions more illegal aliens would regroup and flood into the U.S.
- Printing more trillions of dollars would spike more hyperinflation.
- Cutting defense would further encourage even more wars in Asia, Europe, and the Middle East.
- More woke and DEI mandates would ensure more tribal disunity.
- Harris-Walz would try fulfilling earlier promises to ban fracking and horizontal drilling, render the U.S. vulnerable to hostile foreign oil producers,
- distance the U.S. from Israel,
- and out-appease Biden’s coddling of Iran.
- They would continue the crazy left-wing war on the Supreme Court and implement Joe Biden’s plan to neuter it.
The Harris-Walz message is clear: “In order to run your country for the next four years, we must lie and deceive you for the next three months.”
