Kamala Harris earned a JD, ousted an incumbent DA in San Francisco in an election, was then elected to the Senate, and then elected as the Vice President. Maybe it’s just racism and misogyny alive and well in 2024 when older white people with a high school diploma from decades ago call her a DEI hire or discuss her Black or Indian heritage and ludicrously speak as if her intellect is below their own.

Be aware that this is how CNN reports the news — “Today, Donald Trump commits to ending Social Security if elected President.” What Donald Trump actually said — “When I’m re-elected President of these glorious United States, I will end taxation on Social Security benefits.” As a responsible American citizen, you need to take the initiative to educate yourselves before casting your vote in November.

The Biden-Harris team sent 20,000 Haitians to Springfield, Ohio. Springfield was a city of only 60,000 people. Now a full 25% of the city is Haitians, who haven’t assimilated, who don’t speak English, and who can’t even drive properly. The citizens are up in arms and who can blame them? A vote for Kamala Harris is a vote for more of this nonsense and chaos.

Convicted felon Trump asked if he has a healthcare plan after 9 years, “I have concepts of a plan.” After that debate, radical Republicans really need to look hard if the convicted felon is all there, Melania really needs to step in and stop the elder abuse.

When I see billionaire actors and comedians supporting Kamala I scratch my head and ask why! These same people didn’t support Biden. She has no good ideas and speaks in word salads, has never given a news conference with questions from all, so I am guessing it is the hatred of Trump. Pretty sad!

He had a plan, but the dog ate it, and then someone ate the dog, so now it’s just a concept of a plan.

Don’t believe the lies about Donald Trump and Project 2025. Trump’s planned policies for his second term are called Agenda47. They are extensively documented and available for all to read on Trump’s campaign website: https://www.donaldjtrump.com/agenda47.

The Associated Press believes that Howard University’s capstone moment is that Kamala Harris is at top the of the Democratic ticket. If they’re referring to the fact the lowest-rated, most unaccompanied, most unqualified, most inarticulate, most socialist vice president being appointed by DNC kingpins (not elected) who never earned a single primary vote, is the HBCU’s capstone moment, I wouldn’t be bragging about that.

S Light stop putting words in people’s mouths. It is consistent with the 2nd Amendment to have an assault weapon ban (we had one in the 90s) and it is not word salad. By your logic, the machine gun ban from close to a century ago should be abolished and your neighbor should have an easy time of it wiping out your entire family at your next family picnic in under 10 seconds.

Little Joshy Shapiro has quickly gotten over being dumped by his Democrat Party anti-Semitic paramours and he’s back at work diligently burdening Pennsylvanians with more of what has been. Kamala’s main tease just slammed PA citizens with an additional tax burden of over $800 million to be wasted on PA’s failing public school system. Missing from the bill are mandates for improving test scores and graduation rates, or holding teachers responsible for their abject failures.

After reading the column in Wednesday’s Mercury by the Heritage Foundation, it’s clear that they agree with Trump’s plan to”Let Putin do whatever the hell he wants to.” Of course, they are on the same page. They wrote Trump’s agenda, “Project 2025.” (Which he knows nothing about). If Putin takes Ukraine, he won’t stop there.
Virtue comes at a price. Three analyses have put the cost of converting Colorado’s electricity grid to 100% renewables at $460,000/family of four. The figure does not include the cost of transmission lines. A further study projected that the weather-dependent energy portfolio would result in 24 hours of power losses during winter months. The elected officials behind the bankrupting and life-threatening scheme will be long gone before calamity comes knocking.

We absolutely need the House and Senate more than ever. Hakeem Jeffries is more dangerous than Pelosi ever was.
Michael Stern: Bad timing — your comment about timely election results, (9/20; “… Something is very, very wrong.”), appeared the same day Trump loyalists on the Georgia Election Board voted a new rule demanding all (11 million) votes be hand-counted. You’re right, something is wrong. It will get worse whether Trump wins or not. Those trying to undermine our systems will not just “go away.”
Boy the Ohio governor showed his colors, it was internet misinformation. No, it was Trump’s lies that caused all the problems. The Haitians were legal immigrants, hard-working people but like Vance, we have to make up stories to get public attention. Just remember it could be you next. Read Project 2025.

Isn’t amazing that folks who call themselves moderate, can write about the poor innocent people of Gaza(who give 90% support to Hamas), but can’t write a single word about the thousand innocent Jews killed on October 7 by the people of Gaza. The last 2 days have brought joyous news of many Hezbollah casualties from exploding pagers and walkie-talkies. Hurray for the good guys!

Thank you Sound Off for posting the views and thoughts of so many. Sadly, so many believe the lies that are being told. History does repeat itself.

Absolutely Kamala can win. This will be a great test of the power of the media. To take someone who formerly was universally disliked and transform them into a godlike figure. The question is, are the American people smart enough to see through it?

The Democrats are pledging that the next assassin will be a gay woman of color.

When it comes to winning any large lottery, the most consistent winner is the IRS. They take a considerable portion of every “pot” and have never bought a ticket!
