Kamala Harris was ‘completely shocked’ by election night loss to Trump after she ‘bought the hype’

Former Vice President Kamala Harris was floored by her loss to President Trump this past November, having “bought the hype” that her campaign was in good shape in the run-up to Election Day, according to the author of a new book on the 2024 presidential election. 

“She was completely shocked, and Tim Walz was shocked,” The Hill correspondent Amie Parnes, co-author of “FIGHT: Inside the Wildest Battle for the White House,” told the podcast “Somebody’s Gotta Win with Tara Palmeri” Thursday.

Walz was so “stunned” by Harris’ crushing defeat that he was unable to speak, according to Parnes. 

“He has no words,” the reporter told Palmeri, describing the Minnesota governor sitting in his hotel room silently on election night as staffers tried to explain the situation. 

“And people are kind of explaining to him, same thing with [Harris]. And she’s like, ‘Are you sure? Have we done a recount? Should we do a recount?’” Parnes continued.

Biden Family’s Latest Driving Scandal Reveals Pattern of Reckless Entitlement

When most families pass down traditions, it’s cherished recipes or holiday customs. The Biden family seems to pass down a different tradition: reckless driving records and get-out-of-jail-free cards. Just when you thought the Biden crime family couldn’t be more brazen in their disregard for laws that apply to the rest of us, another family member has joined their infamous driving hall of shame. This time, it’s Sara Biden, sister-in-law to the former president, who apparently believes that rural Maryland roads are her personal Daytona 500 track. Honestly, I’m not even surprised anymore – are you?

From ‘Daily Mail’:

DailyMail.com can reveal Joe’s sister-in-law Sara Biden, 65, was caught driving almost 100mph in a 50mph zone on a Maryland country road on the morning of February 16, 2024. Records show Sara, the wife of Joe’s brother Jim Biden, was driving her black 2023 Jeep Rubicon at 96mph down Route 33 near Leehaven Road at 9:30am.

Sara Biden was caught driving NINETY-SIX miles per hour in a fifty-mile-per-hour zone. That’s not just speeding – that’s practically taking flight in a nearly two-ton metal missile on a rural country road with a single lane in each direction. Any parent, grandparent, or child could have been sharing that road that morning. But apparently, the Biden family considers themselves immune to both physics and consequences. I’m absolutely stunned by the recklessness – though at this point, should any of us be surprised?

Of course, when you’re connected to the Biden name, the rules magically become flexible. According to court records, Sara ended up pleading guilty to a lesser offense of speeding at a mere 60mph and was ordered to undergo a “driver improvement program.” I don’t know about you, but if I were caught driving at nearly double the speed limit, I doubt I’d get such a gentle slap on the wrist. Must be nice to have those Biden connections when the blue lights flash in your rearview mirror.

How Performative Activism Enabled Mass Persecution

Reality engineering requires three components: institutional power to create the narrative, social pressure to enforce it, and the deliberate persecution of anyone who challenges either. The Covid era provided the perfect case study in how this machinery operates—and revealed how performative activism serves as its most potent enforcement mechanism.

Every major element of the official Covid narrative has been proven false: The origins of the virus, the validity of PCR tests, the suppression of early treatments, the denial of natural immunity, the so-called “safety and effectiveness” of vaccines, and the utility of masks, lockdowns, and vaccine passports. Yet those who questioned any part of it faced unprecedented ostracism and persecution.

The manufactured panic ignored fundamental reality: Covid posed minimal risk to healthy people under 70, but was significantly more dangerous to the elderly and immunocompromised. Rather than focusing resources on protecting vulnerable populations, we destroyed economies, stole childhoods, and enforced measures that made no epidemiological sense.

HERE WE GO: President Trump Reveals Vietnam Wants to Cut Their Tariffs Down to ZERO

President Trump on Friday revealed that Vietnam is willing to drop their tariffs to zero.

Trump imposed a massive 46% tariff on Vietnam in response to the country’s tariffs on exports to the US.

Chinese companies and retailers have used Vietnam as a shelter to circumvent the US’s trade war with China.

Vietnam can’t handle Trump’s tariffs so they are willing to drop their tariffs down to zero if they are able to make an agreement.

“Just had a very productive call with To Lam, General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam, who told me that Vietnam wants to cut their Tariffs down to ZERO if they are able to make an agreement with the U.S. I thanked him on behalf of our Country, and said I look forward to a meeting in the near future,” Trump said on Friday.

On Thursday evening, Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One that every country is already calling the White House in response to his reciprocal tariffs.

On Wednesday President Trump signed an executive order imposing reciprocal tariffs on dozens of countries.

Trump announced the implementation of a 10% baseline tariff on all imports, effective April 5, 2025.

“For too long, other nations have taken advantage of our open markets while imposing barriers to our products. Those days are over,” the President said.

The White House released a detailed chart showing how badly many countries have been ripping off American workers, charging high tariffs on U.S. goods while benefiting from America’s generosity in return.

Trump told reporters that every country has called the White House in response to his tariffs.

Bedlam, Pending

“You need a sufficient amount of ruthlessness to run a country” — Will Chamberlain on “X”

You understand, all these lawsuit shenanigans with select federal judges from Woke-crazed districts like Boston, San Francisco, Rhode Island, and the DC Beltway are aimed at provoking a second civil war. The objective is to burden Mr. Trump with so many restrictions on the executive that the country can’t be governed without declaring a national emergency.

This is the Democratic Party’s desperate strategy to stay alive: to preserve the flow of taxpayer money to its minions stuffed into the organs of government like cancer cells, and the vast network of NGOs that employ its agents and spread its sickness. The Democratic Party is a malignancy within the republic and the money is the blood-flow that feeds it.

DOGE is the chemotherapy that has starved some of the worst tumors, such as USAID. Chemotherapy is always hard on the patient. Cancer is a very tough and resourceful enemy of a healthy body, and fights back by any means available. Ultimately, it seeks to kill the body it has come to inhabit — in this case, the body-politic of the USA. We are fighting for the life of our republic against a demonic enemy.

The Democratic Party displays exactly the characteristics that human beings traditionally associate with pure evil. Above all, it lies about everything that it does. It lies, of course, in order to deceive you, so that you won’t understand how it is working to vanquish you and your posterity (your kids and their future). RussiaGate, Covid-19, the Ukraine War, all were marinated in lies. The lies operate through the perversion of language, so you won’t understand what is being said. For instance: that the Democratic Party is working to save our democracy. That howler persists in their every public performance.

The Democratic Party controls the major organs of information: The New York Times, CNN, Hollywood. They are the conveyers of lies, bamboozling the body politic to divide and conquer it. The Democratic party is a bad faith legion enlisted to defend the Father-of-Lies, America’s Deep State (a.k.a. the blob). That information regime is failing now along with the Democratic Party. The Deep State is failing with them. They are the parasites that kill their host. They intend to kill the republic as they go down.

The Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) is supposed to function like an immune system for the body politic, defending it against political sickness. The current organized action in the federal judiciary against the executive is a grave sickness induced by the Deep State that must be corrected by the SCOTUS. We await that corrective action — a sweeping decision in reply to 100-plus lawsuits — that the chief executive is in-charge of the executive department and that his prerogatives to manage the staffing and actions of the executive agencies can’t be arrogated by federal judges.

Why US shipbuilding is the worst and more money won’t save it

“We are also going to resurrect the American shipbuilding industry, including commercial shipbuilding and military shipbuilding,” President Trump said during his March 6 joint address to Congress.

The president did not break new ground with the announcement. Virtually every year, Navy and industry leaders complain that the United States does not invest enough in the nation’s shipbuilding facilities. Yet according to the Congressional Budget Office, lawmakers have appropriated more shipbuilding funds than the president requested for at least 17 of the past 20 years. Even with the extra funds, the Navy’s major shipbuilding programs have consistently fallen behind schedule and over budget.

Over the next three years, the Navy plans on retiring 13 more ships than it will commission, shrinking the fleet to 283 ships by 2027. According to the Navy’s current plan, the fleet will grow to 515 crewed and uncrewed vessels by 2054. To reach that goal, the Congressional Budget Office estimates the Navy will spend more than $1 trillion, nearly $36 billion each year for the next three decades on shipbuilding alone.

It remains unclear if the Navy can realize its plan, even if Congress provides the funds. Ramping up naval construction is not simply a matter of resources. The Navy spent $2.3 billion between 2018 and 2023 to increase the capacity of the submarine shipyards. Despite this investment, the production rate for Virginia-class attack submarines decreased from around two boats per year to 1.2.

In just 10 years after the end of the Cold War, the number of skilled shipyard workers shrank from 62,000 to 21,000. The number of workers has increased since 2001, but shortages remain. During a 2024 symposium, the director of the Navy’s Submarine Industrial Base Program said the United States needs to hire 140,000 workers just to meet the needs of the current submarine building program.

Education Secretary Linda McMahon Announces New Title IX Special Investigations Team: “We will not permit you to trample on women’s rights any longer”

Education Secretary Linda McMahon announced the creation of the Title IX Special Investigations Team in collaboration with the U.S. Department of Education and the Department of Justice, led by Attorney General Pam Bondi.

The initiative aims to expedite investigations and enforce Title IX regulations to protect female students and athletes, particularly in response to concerns about men participating in women’s sports and accessing women’s restrooms and locker rooms.

McMahon emphasized that this move aligns with the Trump administration’s priority to uphold Title IX, ensuring rapid and consistent action to address potential violations by educational institutions.

McMahon shared the announcement on X.

“Today, the Department of Education, alongside the Department of Justice, is proud to announce the creation of the Title IX Special Investigations Team, consisting of attorneys and investigators from both of our agencies to adjudicate our ever-increasing volume of Title IX investigations.”

“We have received a staggering number of complaints about men competing in women’s sports and invading women-only intimate spaces.”

“That’s why we’re partnering with the County General Bonde’s team to move even faster in order to protect women and girls.”

“The establishment of this team will benefit women and girls across this nation who have been subjected to discrimination and indignity in their educational activities.”

“To all entities receiving federal funding who continue to allow these illegal practices, we will not permit you to trample on women’s rights any longer.”

Hamas Ready To Free All Hostages At Once For Permanent Truce

Amid an expanded Israeli military (IDF) ground operation, which has again seen Rafah surrounded, Hamas is signaling that it’s ready to release all remaining Israeli hostages in exchange for a permanent ceasefire.

A Thursday Times of Israel report cited a senior Palestinian official who described that Israel has had a “longstanding rejection” of such a deal, which is why Hamas has so far offered a phased release approach; however, negotiations are at a “standstill” as the IDF has moved to a military solution.

Israel has reportedly countered by asking Hamas to release eleven hostages, but with no commitment this would lead to permanent ceasefire talks.

“While Netanyahu signed onto the deal, he has long rejected the latter two clauses of phase two, arguing they would allow Hamas to remain in power,” the report observes. “Accordingly, he has largely refused to hold talks regarding phase two of the deal, which were supposed to begin on February 2.”

The senior Palestinian official sourced in the Israeli media report said, “The number of hostages is not the issue. If Israel demonstrates its intention to reach a permanent ceasefire, [Hamas is] prepared to release all of the hostages.”

“Israel only wants a partial agreement so that it can continue fighting. It wants [Hamas] to give up all the hostages without entering the second phase,” the official claimed.

DOGE Executive Antonio Gracias Reveals 1.3 Million Illegals Are Accessing Medicaid – Thousands Are Voting

DOGE executive Antonio Gracias, the founder of Valor Equity Partners, joined the All In podcast on X.

During their discussion, Antonio revealed shocking information on how illegal aliens and even violent illegal aliens are accessing government benefits and even voting.

Antonio Gracias:  We mapped it through to the benefit programs. We found in the benefit programs that every benefit program that was being accessed by these people, 1.3 million of them are on Medicaid right now, today. And by the way, it’s just ramping. It’s just starting. Just to give you a point. And then out of curiosity, I woke up at 2: 00 in the morning. I couldn’t sleep. My mind was running on this. I sent the individual note saying, Hey, guys, let’s just look at the public voter rolls who we find in some friendly states. And we looked at the voter rolls, and we found that thousands of them were registered to vote in a handful of states. And then we went in further with those friendly states and found that many of those people had actually voted. It was shocking to us.

If I hadn’t seen it in my own eyes, I wouldn’t believe it. And so now the question we’re asking ourselves is, what do we do? We refer to some to prosecution that’s ongoing right now. We’re thinking through how to do it. And the reality is they have various kinds of status, and it’s a very detailed analysis, legally, they’re working through right now about how to deal with it.

Jason Calacanis:  So thousands of those people registered to vote?

Antonio Gracias:  Yes.

Jason Calacanis:  In the election.

Antonio Gracias:  Which is a federal crime, by the way…

Democrats Activate NGO Machine For Weekend Color Revolution Operation Against Trump

The Democratic Party’s favorability among Americans has plunged to a record low. In an attempt to reverse this decline, the rudderless party of leftist lunatics has openly launched a domestic color revolution—facilitated by a shadowy network of billionaire-funded NGOs.

Initially, the operation targeted Elon Musk and DOGE; now, the leftist NGO machine is gaining momentum and redirecting total mobilization efforts at President Trump on Saturday in nationwide protests called “Hands Off!”…
