Brazen Kamala Harris STEALS one of Donald Trump's flagship policies

Kamala Harris has stolen one of Donald Trump's key campaign promises to stop taxing tips given to service workers. Harris revealed she was copying the flagship Trump policy at a rally in Las Vegas Saturday night.

She told attendees her government will 'eliminate taxes on tips for hospitality and service utility workers.' The announcement drew huge applause.

Trump himself attacked Kamala in a post on Truth Social, asking: 'How long will it be before Kamala Harris comes out with another “TRUMP” policy like, “No Taxes will be paid by our Senior Citizens on Social Security?”

'She’s looking really bad now! Everyone is waiting to see what idea, or policy of mine, she will copy next.'

And Team Trump was also quick to point out that Harris' idea is not an original one, and even suggested she was lying about her vow to implement it.

'Kamala just announced she is stealing President Trump's "NO TAX ON TIPS" proposal,' a spokesperson posted on X.

Secret Service breaks into salon, duct-tapes cameras and uses bathroom during Harris fundraiser

The U.S. Secret Service was forced to apologize to a Massachusetts salon owner after using her building's bathroom without permission ahead of a fundraiser for Vice President Kamala Harris last week.

The salon owner, Alicia Powers, says Secret Service agents put duct tape over her security cameras and broke into her building by picking the lock. They then allowed various people to use the salon's bathroom over a two-hour period.

Powers told Business Insider that she was aware she had to close her salon but was not informed about the Secret Service's other plans.

"They had a bunch of people in and out of here doing a couple of bomb sweeps again – totally understand what they have to do, due to the nature of the situation," Powers told Business Insider. "And at that point, my team felt like it was a little bit chaotic, and we just made the decision to close for Saturday."

Footage from the salon's front-door Ring security camera shows a Secret Service agent approaching the door with a roll of tape and observing the locked door and the camera. The agent then grabbed a nearby chair and stood on it to tape over the security camera.

"There were several people in and out for about an hour-and-a-half – just using my bathroom, the alarms going off, using my counter, with no permission," Powers told BI.

"And then when they were done using the bathroom for two hours, they left, and left my building completely unlocked, and did not take the tape off the camera," she added.

The shadow

The shadow knows!
It's clear. Since he steps away from the campaign Joe Biden is gone. Ask your self where is he? What is he doing? Joe has vanished and the narrative has changed. Overnight polls shift momentum swings. Harris is up trump is down. Trump plays golf while Harris campaigns. I noted something. That Harris has hit Wisconsin 4 times as of late. At least Vance has visited 3 times Trump zero. The last candidate to not visit Wisconsin lost big. That candidate is Hillary Clinton this is since Joe dropped out.
Then there is this

From FB a dose of truth!
It's not that the failure of the referendum questions make WI worse than it was. No one will die because of the results.

What is disconcerting is that Dem messaging WORKED on Republicans. Many Republicans voted "no" on the questions. Why? They responded positively to Democrats' campaign messaging. I lost count on how many Republicans emailed me saying they got a flyer from some innocuous sounding group and thought the right way to vote was "NO". I received an email from an election worker who sorted ballots and said he noticed a huge number of Republican voters marking "NO" on their ballots.

What is also disconcerting is the lack of anything that resembled a "campaign" on the questions. If they were important enough to put on the ballot, why were they not important enough to spend money on? Why were they not important enough to correct the Dem lies at scale?

I simply can't see a way those questions fail if there was an actual campaign behind them. Did anyone tell state voters that Evers was using printed federal money as a slush fund for his cronies? Did anyone know he used Covid money for Planned Parenthood? Sure some did...but not many. Did anyone explain that giving the legislature co-authority over the unrestricted federal $$ would have ZERO impact on emergency declaration (tornado, flood, fire etc) distribution because those dollars are NOT "unrestricted"? No.

Were were the radio ads? TV/digital ads? Heck, where were the yard signs?

I'm not sure what is going on with the legislative GOP. I'm not sure what's going on with the state party. But both groups just proved that Dems can "steal" WI not by ballot harvesting, but by LYING.

Again, no one will die because those questions failed. It's the reason they failed that is so troubling.

And given that (so far) Trump has not been effective at countering the coordinated media campaign to redefine Harris and Walz as moderates, this worries me greatly.

We need a counter media strategy. Talk radio and self-directed posts on social media are not enough.

Pray Team Trump sees this problem as clearly as I do.

What's Kamala Harris hiding? She's been the nominee for a MONTH - yet still refuses to reveal a single policy or plan

Elites in the Democratic party are truly shameless. They'd already committed an egregious affront to democracy by covering up President Joe Biden's infirmity for months and then hand-picking his successor.

It was even worse that Vice President Kamala Harris, their anointed nominee, had never won a single vote in a presidential primary contest.

And it's an ongoing insult that Harris has yet to submit to a single interview or news conference in the 24 days that she's been her party's new standard-bearer.

But it's the latest news from Harris world that is truly too much to stomach.

Campaign insiders are now suggesting to the media that she wants to 'break' from Biden's failed stewardship of the US economy. You know, the same economy she's helped to run the past four years.

In a 'policy' speech this week, they claim she'll roll out her scheme for lowering costs, taming inflation and restoring the American dream.

Well, don't hold your breath. Even the New York Times isn't fooled.

'[Harris] will lay out an approach relatively light on details… it will rarely break from Mr. Biden on substance,' the Times reported Wednesday.

How exciting!

It's now abundantly clear that the Harris 2024 campaign strategy is to treat the American people as if they're mushrooms… keep them in the dark and feed them crap.

Almost 80 days out from the election (and only a month from the start of early voting in some states), Harris is yet to reveal an iota of what she actually wants to do as president.

Pretty sure it is not the president affecting those things, but many things, like the war in Ukraine, climate change, weather, etc. The corporations are also doing their profiteering.

It is probably the case that Kamala Harris is incompetent to lead the United States, but inflation in the 2020s has been a global phenomenon in the aftermath of Covid and with the start of the war in Ukraine. Although it was a political choice for your government to make you worse off by imposing economic sanctions on Russia in response to its invasion of Ukraine, all other western-aligned governments followed suit.

Liberal media stunned by voter responses despite their 'propaganda' effort to back Kamala

Journalists from liberal news outlets appear to have been left stunned after voters showed a preference for Donald Trump over Kamala Harris in a series of on-the-street interviews.

One clip going viral on X shows broadcaster Don Lemon interviewing strangers in Atlantic City, NJ, and finding many agreed they felt more financially stable under Trump's presidency.

And in one toe-curling exchange, a voter laughs in Lemon's face after the journalist tried to argue with his personal experience. In another instance he sensationally asks a male interviewee if his resistance to Harris is because 'she is a woman.'

A second clip from left-leaning ABC News shows a woman saying that she was considering voting for Trump because Harris 'has just been kind of caught up in a lot of lies.'

It comes after it emerged the Democratic presidential candidate's 'honeymoon' period with the liberal media appeared to come to a crashing end after her 'communist' plan to control food prices prompted outrage. Critics have previously suggested Harris has benefitted from 'propaganda' among left-leaning titles while enjoying strong polling numbers since taking over from Joe Biden.

'Powerful Democrats' pushed President Biden out in 'coup': NYT columnist

New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd deemed President Biden's ouster a "coup" orchestrated behind the scenes by powerful Democrats on Sunday.

"Even though it was the right thing to do, because Joe Biden was not going to be able to campaign, much less serve as president for another four years, in a fully vital way, it was a jaw-dropping putsch," Dowd wrote.

The president announced he would be dropping out of the race for the White House at the end of July, following weeks of pressure from top Democrats, who had reportedly called on him to bow out in private. Top Democrats, including former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Sen. Chuck Schumer and more have repeatedly denied they were involved in a "coup" to push Biden out.

"At some point, when the polls cratered, Democratic mandarins decided to put the welfare of the party — and the country — ahead of the president’s ego, and stop catering to his self-regarding fantasy that he was the only one who could beat Donald Trump," Dowd continued.

Dowd noted that Pelosi and others have revealed they haven't been able to speak to Biden since he bowed out.

"One of the most ruthless and successful tacticians in congressional history seemed sheepish about knifing her pal, and conflicted over whether to take credit. Et tu, Nancy? Biden must have thought," the columnist added.

Pelosi has also heaped praise on the president, despite what appears to be a fractured relationship, and recently suggested Biden belonged on Mount Rushmore.

"Kamala can’t be thrilled that Obama, Pelosi and Schumer hesitated to endorse her because they wanted more moderate rivals to compete in an open mini-primary. And Biden and Harris staffs are also tetchy, as Kamala layers on her own people," Dowd wrote.
