Rupert Murdoch’s The Sunday Times, sister paper to The Times of London, has published an article denouncing the efforts of the Democratic Party machine to generate artificial enthusiasm for Vice President Kamala Harris‘s presidential bid as so inauthentic that Russia’s Vladimir Putin would be ashamed of it.
Columnist Camilla Long, despite being unfriendly to former President Donald J. Trump, bemoans the way “All [Harris’s] faults, flaws, back story are now also being hastily tidied away, as [Joe] Biden’s were; the snafus, word salads, ‘border tsar’ errors drowned out.”
“This is the first true AI election: synthetic candidates are magicked up almost out of nowhere, suddenly given huge projection, campaigns, ready-made armies of Twitter followers. They’re mere products,” Long argues.
“No one in the Democrats seems to care who is up there, what their politics are, who they represent, just as long as they’re reading the right things and repeating suitably vague catchphrases, all planned for them by faceless committees,” she adds.
STAGED.
The British columnist takes particular issue with “one extraordinary clip” showing Harris taking a supposedly spontaneous call from Barack and Michelle Obama, with the Vice President feigning surprise as they offer their belated endorsement.
“To say this video is fiction is to completely understate the incredible lengths to which the Democrats are going to fabricate their candidate. Nothing in it is real: it’s an entirely staged call; Harris speaks staged words, wearing a microphone in preparation, but then acts if she had no idea the Obamas would be dialling in,” Long recounts.
“Do the Obamas even believe she is the best candidate? I doubt it—they took days to endorse her. Imagine if Putin did any of this,” she says.
A Biden family source, unhappy at the 81-year-old’s ouster as the Democratic nominee, revealed shortly before the Obamas finally endorsed Harris that former President Obama was “furious,” “shocked,” and “very upset” to see the Vice President falling into place as Biden’s replacement.
“Obama knows she’s just incompetent—the border czar who never visited the border, saying that all migrants should have health insurance. She cannot navigate the landmines that are ahead of her,” said the source.
Obama reportedly wanted to see Arizona Senator Mark Kelly “at the top of the ticket” after a more open renomination process.

Ana Cherée Rice, design lead for the Harris for President campaign, called for arson and looting during the Black Lives Matter riots. Rice, who designed Vice President Kamala Harris’s presidential campaign logo, urged rioters to “burn all that s**t down” on X, formerly Twitter, on numerous occasions, up until at least May 2023.
The black designer also advocates pillaging commercial premises as a means of expressing racial grievance, responding to a 2021 post declaring “Rioting works” by adding, “and looting.” For the avoidance of doubt, she reiterated to her followers in March 2023 that “[I] never have—and will never have—a problem with looting.”
The Brooklyn-based Democrat’s attitude to the police is predictable, with her post history also including anti-law enforcement messages such as “F**k the NYPD.”
Rice’s close association with the Harris campaign—Rob Flaherty, Harris’s deputy campaign manager, singled her out for praise as recently as last week—will damage efforts to present the Vice President to moderates as a no-nonsense ex-prosecutor, unencumbered by woke baggage.
Rice may have taken her lead on the Black Lives Matter riots from Harris, who suggested in June 2020 that the riots were “not gonna let up—and they should not.” The then-senator also expressed support for the ‘defund the police’ movement.
Former President Donald J. Trump argues that, far from being a law and order candidate, Harris’s record as a progressive prosecutor makes her “the original Marxist district attorney.”

Paul Dans is the director of The Heritage Foundation‘s 2025 Presidential Transition Project—colloquially known as Project 2025— and has cleared the air on much of the left’s lies regarding the group. In an appearance on The Culture War with Tim Pool, Dans bluntly addressed the outlandish claims made against the independent presidential transition project, noting the subject has “…caught lightning because it is a threat.”
ANOTHER DEMOCRAT HOAX.
“Here’s the thing, the thing with Project 2025, this is now the subject of one of the greatest hoaxes of all time,” Dans argues, continuing: “Our friends on the left move from hoax to hoax, and whether it was Russiagate or then into the vaccines and COVID, Ukraine, or whatever is the next thing, you know President Trump has certainly been the target of every hoax.”
He adds: “But here, with Project 2025, a lot of what people say is not actually in Project 2025.”
The Heritage Foundation attorney notes that some corporate media outlets and left-wing activists have claimed the group is looking to cut social security, for instance. However, Dans counters, stating: “We don’t even have a chapter on social security. That’s not even in the [policy] book.”
RESTORING DEMOCRACY.
Addressing left-wing attacks claiming the group is plotting an authoritarian takeover, the Project 2025 director meticulously picks apart the propaganda. “The federal government right now has 2.2 million full-time workers,” Dans argues, adding: “The president appoints a sliver—4,000. If you do the math, that’s one to 500. That’s not exactly an army.”
“But to be clear, it really is wanting the president to be back in charge of the executive branch. Why is that?” Dans posits to the Pool and his co-hosts, telling them: “Because we vote for the president, and it’s ultimately about putting us [the American people] back in charge. This is really a plan to restore democracy.”
He emphasizes that the goal is to make the executive branch accessible to those who want to put in the work and make the government better. “It’s a call for conservatives, libertarians, really people who just don’t accept the status quo and think we can do better to get into government,” Dans says.
REPRESENTATIVE GOVERNMENT.
According to Project 2025, the federal government—as it has increased in size and become more centralized in Washington, D.C.—has lost touch with the average American’s needs and concerns.
“We see here in Washington that it’s not really representative of the whole. You have a very cosmopolitan group. The typical federal worker votes on the order or 95 percent for the Democrat Party,” Dans argues before continuing: “So you’re already going into a building where the people are ideologically opposed to your agenda, and how do you manage that.”
He relates his own experience facing bureaucratic dysfunction and internal opposition from career government employees during the first Trump presidential administration. “What we’re doing really is demystifying the process to get to Washington,” Dans says, adding that Project 2025 is “…a recruiting tool to say this government is yours as much as it is anyone else.”
THE ADMINISTRATIVE STATE.
Pushing back against the Democratic Party and their corporate media allies’ misconceptions regarding a mythical fourth ‘administrative state’ branch of government, Dans cautions that power has been wrested from the people and placed instead with unelected bureaucrats.
“And that’s what we’re really working with. Trying to basically say this whole system, this whole progressive architecture, this whole matrix, was built for the express reason of taking government and power out of the hands of the people and putting it in the hands of a group of so-called experts,” Dans contends.
RELATION TO TRUMP?
Settling the most common false claim by the corporate media and the left, Dans firmly says the group has no relation to former President Donald J. Trump or his 2024 presidential campaign. “The number one lie that they tell is that this is Trump’s Project 2025. It is not,” Dans tells Pool. He adds: “So we started this up three years ago… and it was a coming together of the conservative movement.”
Again, the Project 2025 director emphasizes that the goal of the group is to serve as a “mechanism to get good people to Washington.”
“The left does the same. All of the Biden plans come from various think tanks. CAP [Center for American Progress], there’s an entire litany of them,” Dans notes.
DEMS OUT OF OTHER OPTIONS.
Dans surmises that KamalaHarris and former Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden are focusing on The Heritage Foundation and Project 2025 because their other lines of attack against Trump and the MAGA movement haven’t worked. “They kind of ran out of their bag of tricks,” he contends, adding that the attacks really started up after the Biden-Harris government’s failed lawfare campaign against former President Trump.
“These are attacks on democracy,” he says regarding the lawfare campaign before adding: “With respect to Project 2025, it is more ‘Projection 2025…It is all deflection.”
Dans concludes: “The reality is that they’re going to mischaracterize things. What they’ve done with Project 2025 is full-on misinformation.”

Editor’s Notes
Behind-the-scenes political intrigue exclusively for Pulse+ subscribers.
During her time as District Attorney of San Francisco in 2009, Vice President Kamala Harris led a jobs program to “rehabilitate” non-violent offenders and ended up hiring an illegal immigrant who brutally attacked a young woman.
In her 2024 presidential campaign, Vice President Kamala Harris is attempting to highlight her prosecutorial experience to attract moderates, claiming she has never avoided confronting those who harm Americans. However, her tenure as San Francisco District Attorney faced scrutiny due to the “Back on Track” program.
One controversial case involved Alexander Izaguirre, a Honduran migrant with a criminal record. While in the program, Izaguirre assaulted Amanda Kiefer, severely injuring her, leaving her with a fractured skull. Kiefer, who was left with long-term trauma, later criticized the city’s policies.
Harris called the incident a “huge kind of pimple” on the program, drawing accusations she trivialized the attack.
Harris’s support for sanctuary city policies has also drawn criticism. San Francisco’s policies limiting local authorities’ ability to question immigration status led to the release of Edwin Ramos, an illegal alien with a violent history.
Ramos went on to commit a triple murder in 2008. The city faced a lawsuit from the victims’ family, which was dismissed. Harris opted for a life sentence for Ramos instead of the death penalty. This record prompted former President Donald J. Trump to critique her as “the original Marxist District Attorney” at a recent rally.
In 2021, after becoming Vice President, Harris was put in charge of illegal immigration as Joe Biden’s “border czar,” although her corporate media allies are denying she held such a position.
Under her watch, the U.S. southern border has seen millions of illegals flood into the country, many of whom have gone on to commit horrific crimes, including rape and murder.

Vice President Kamala Harris has “not rowed back at all” on the extreme rhetoric that may have inspired the assassination attempt against Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, says Raheem Kassam, Editor-in-Chief of The National Pulse. He warns conservatives should not “underestimate just how far the left will go to try and get her over the line” in November.
“Remember, President Trump was impeached twice; he was the subject of an assassination attempt recently. There’s also no doubt in my mind that somebody out there, being radicalized, may well try that again. Impeached twice, perhaps attempted to be shot twice,” Kassam told Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk.
“You’ve got to look at the messaging that Kamala’s campaign is putting out there that furthers the chance of that happening. She has not rowed back at all from the [pre-assassination rhetoric] saying President Trump is a threat to democracy; he’s going to put you all back in chains, as they once said. That is a doubling if not tripling down on the rhetoric that will lead to further violence,” he added.

Raheem Kassam, Editor-in-Chief of The National Pulse, does not believe Kamala Harris is “more difficult to defeat as a human being and as a character and as a candidate” than Hillary Clinton in 2016—but the Democratic Party machine behind her is far more formidable.
“I think they learned in 2016 that they must cheat, they must steal, they must take part in all these different, let’s say, malleable parts on the fringes of certain counties and election boards across the country, and I’m not entirely convinced that the political right has done enough/anything to account for that,” he told Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk.
“There are going to be alarm bells starting to ring, I guarantee you, in the next couple of weeks about just how little there is in terms of changes there on the ground,” Kassam added.

Vice President Kamala Harris announced on Thursday that she will stand in for President Joe Biden in the upcoming ABC presidential debate on September 10 against former President Donald J. Trump. “So many of you have been asking me about the debate and I’ll tell you, I’m ready to debate Donald Trump. I have agreed to the previously agreed upon September 10 debate,” she said at Joint Base Andrews. However, she did not respond and walked away when asked about a proposed debate on Fox News set for September 17 in Pennsylvania.
Trump had earlier challenged Harris to a debate on Fox News, criticizing ABC and calling for the debate to be moved to Fox. “My debate with Crooked Joe Biden, the Worst President in the history of the United States, was slated to be broadcast on Fake News ABC, the home of George Slopadopolus, sometime in September. Now that Joe has, not surprisingly, quit the race, I think the Debate, with whomever the Radical Left Democrats choose, should be held on Fox News, rather than very biased ABC,” Trump wrote.
While not yet officially the Democratic nominee, Harris has secured the endorsements of many top Democrats and the Association of State Democratic Committees (ASDC), making the Democratic National Convention likely only a formality.
Since becoming the assumed nominee, mainstream media have been scrubbing negative stories about Harris, including a story that listed her as the most liberal member of the United States Senate in 2019.
A debate could prove to be a decisive moment in the campaign. Some early polling suggests Trump and Harris may be tied among voters.

Former Border Patrol leader Chris Clem has sharply criticized Vice President Kamala Harris over her handling of illegal immigration. Clem, who served for over 27 years with Border Patrol, said this week that Harris must take ownership of the crisis, stating, “You own this. You can’t say, ‘It’s not my responsibility.'”
“The numbers don’t lie,” Clem said, describing the current situation as “disastrous.”
Harris, appointed by Joe Biden to address the “root causes” of illegal immigration, is trying to disown the “border czar” title attributed to her by politicians and media alike. She hardly visited the U.S. southern frontier and refused invitations to visit from border states such as Arizona in 2021.
Chris Clem is not the only border official to criticize Harris since she became the presumptive Democratic Party nominee. Brandon Judd, President of the National Border Patrol Council, stated this week that Harris was made aware of the policies needed to end the border crisis but refused to implement any of them.
Speaking at a rally alongside former President Donald J. Trump, Judd said, “She does not care about you; she does not care about the safety of this country. [Trump] does.”
Raul Ortiz, another former Border Patrol leader, stated earlier this year that, during his tenure, Harris never met with him.

America First Legal (AFL) is launching a sweeping investigation into Kamala Harris‘s actions as a county prosecutor and later Attorney General in California, calling into question a series of dubious decisions made by the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee. According to the conservative legal group, Harris abused her roles as prosecutor and the state’s top law enforcement officer to pursue a radical and partisan agenda and flaunt state ethics rules.
The group raises ethics concerns dating back to Harris‘s tenure as a deputy district attorney for Alameda County, California. While working in the county district attorney‘s office, Harris failed to disclose her romantic relationship with the powerful California Assembly Speaker Willie Brown. Harris reportedly received lucrative appointments to several state boards due to this relationship.
As the District Attorney for San Francisco, Harris refused to pursue the death penalty even for the most violent offenders—including a cop-killer. Her refusal to seek justice earned her rebukes even from powerful Democrats like then-Senators Barbara Boxer and Diane Feinstein.
While Attorney General of California, Harris pushed highly partisan investigations into free market and conservative non-profit groups—in contravention of federal law. These actions were essentially fishing expeditions to expose donors to the non-profits so that leftist groups could target them with public pressure campaigns.
While serving as California‘s top law enforcement official, AFL also notes that Harris defended San Francisco‘s sanctuary city law and refused to enforce federal immigration statutes. Additionally, the California Democrat cleared the way for an inmate serving a life sentence for murder to receive taxpayer-funded transgender surgery.
Concerningly, the California AG’s office under Harris also turned a blind eye to misconduct by local law enforcement and prison officials, in one instance failing to file charges against clear abuses.

Vice President Kamala Harris backed the “defund the police” movement in 2020, with the George Floyd unrest spreading and Joe Biden looking to select a running mate. She claimed it is “wrong” to say more police officers means more safety and that police budgets should be reexamined.
In a June 2020 interview with New York radio show Ebro in the Morning, Harris said, “defund the police, the issue behind it is that we need to reimagine how we are creating safety.”
“[W]hen you have many cities that have one-third of their entire city budget focused on policing, we know that is not the smart way and the best way or the right way to achieve safety,” she claimed. “For too long the status quo thinking has been you get more safety by putting more cops on the street. Well, that’s wrong,” she insisted.
“[T]his whole movement is about rightly saying, we need to take a look at these budgets and figure out whether it reflects the right priorities,” she said, arguing that “militarizing police departments” is “not working.”
“It has to be about forcing change… I was out there with folks; any movement, any progress we have made has been because people took to the streets. And that’s what we’re seeing today, and it gives me a sense of hope,” she added.
Harris’s team is stressing her background as a California prosecutor to make her more palatable to moderate voters. However, former President Donald J. Trump has pointed out she was not a law-and-order prosecutor but “the original Marxist district attorney.”
