Hey everyone, welcome back to another episode of Just Listen to Yourself with Kia Davis. I of course I'm your host, Kira Davis, and we're going to break down the Kamala Harris Tim Walls interview before we get started. Though you may have noticed we're been we've been light on content this month, and that is because we lost a family member this month. Darvio's dad. Darvio are fearless commander in chief, our leader, my good friend and producer lost his dad David last week suddenly he was ill. But this was an unexpected event and Darvio's been working on I said last week it's weeks ago now, Gosh, time just MUSHes together when you're grieving. Needless to say, it was devastating. And Darvio is an only child and his dad was his best friend, and David was I didn't call him David, I call him Pops because from the second he met me treated me like a daughter. He loved this show and believed in this show, and he believed in me, and most of all, he believed in his son. And he loved his son fiercely. And Darvo is who he is in large part because of his dad. And so. Here at fcb our hearts go out to DARVYO and the rest of his family as they navigate this new kind of life. And I just want to thank God for giving me the opportunity to get to know Pops just a little in my own life, and to Darby O. I just want to say that when you're grieving, that's actually a privileged position to be in because it's when you are closest to God. It's really when you come to the end of yourself when you're grieving, and that's right when God can step in. So this is a sad and devastating time, but in a way, it's also a really fascinating and privileged time. So you'll get to see God in a way that you haven't had the opportunity to see him, thankfully. And I'm praying with you, and I'm I'm mourning with you, and I'm grateful for what your dad poured into your life and into this company. And I'll leave that there because we've got other things to go on to and above all, Darvo's businessman, and I know he's listening to this right now and going get the show on the road. Kira, I've got stuff to do. Okay, Well, we're going to break down the Kimala Harris interview. So this is a treat I did not I did not watch this. I'm watching this. I'm reviewing this the next day. So I did not watch this last night. I have no idea. I mean, I have a little idea. That's a lie. I have a little idea. I've been watching some of the reactions online, but I don't. You're getting me fresh. You're getting me fresh. So I thought I would play this interview for you, so I went to find it, can't find the whole interview. CNN has divided the interview into three parts, Part one, Part two, Part three, which I thought was hilarious because the entire interview is about nineteen minutes, so they divide I did a ninety twenty night. Wait, I've got eight minute clip. I've got it. Oh, so it's about twenty nine minutes if that. So they they divided this interview up into three parts. Now, part of that is probably just for the algorithms and the clicks, Right, the more content you have, the more clicks that register, So it's probably just playing around with those algorithms. But also I just think they really wanted to make it look longer and more interesting than it was. So before we get started, I want to read. I'm going to pull up the video and we'll start with video one. But I found this. I found this article on NPR about the interview and it was called six Takeaways from Harris's Interview on CNN. So I was like, okay, great, let me read this. I'm going to read this first, and I'll see it'll be a fun little experiment. I'll see if anything they said resonates, So i'll read you the six points. I'm betting if you're listening to me right now, you've already heard this interview, so maybe you can compare notes, and then as we move through this, I'll see how close they were. So I won't read you all all the breakdown. I'll just read you the list of six takeaways from Harris's interview, Right, Harris. Number one? Harris passed the test of doing an unscripted interview. Okay, that was only that. That was the test everybody, the person running for president of the United States. The only bar she had to clear was can she do an unscripted interview? It's almost it's almost as high a bar as can you keep your right mind through an interview? Can you remember what day and time it is through an interview? Wow? All right? All number already Number one s turn off the banger. Number two. Democrats are likely breathing a sigh of relief about how Harris will do in a debate. But there's some cleaning up to do. Oh well, what did she say was the cleaning up to do? Because that's you know, this is NPR, So this is this is state literally state run media, as Elon has so helpfully designated them on Twitter, and so for them to say anything slightly negative, you know that's bad. So that's second part of this sentence is a butt. But there's some cleaning up to do. And whenever you see a butt when it comes to our headlines, that means that anything that can be for it doesn't matter. Democrats are likely breathing a sigh of relief about how Harris will do in a debate. But there's some cleaning up to do. Let's see, Harris and her team will probably want to clean up her response as to why she changed her position on fracking and stick to something clearer. Simply saying my values have not changed won't suffice, all right, Okay, number three, Harris shows again that she's not an ideologue and she's aiming for the middle. Okay, number four, we did get some clearer policy ideas. Oh oh gosh, guys, Okay, I just again, I want you to hear that's my fan if you heard that on the audio. I have to have a fan by me now at all times, because I never know when I'm gonna have a hot patch. Welcome to menopause isn't exciting. This is again, this is like number one, where it's like, Okay, she cleared the hurdle of being able to do an unscripted interview. This is your candidate for president of the United States. This is like the number one job in the world. We did get some clearer policy ideas. We're a month out from early voting, and this is the best thing that MPR can say. I mean, this is a very positive thing. If this is Trump, they would say Trump doesn't have any plans at all. We got some clearer policy ideas. I don't know, are you Oh gosh, the fact that that's enough for people to vote for this woman is shocking to me. Well, it's clearer. Number five Harris didn't run from bid nomics. Okay, we'll see, I'll see. And number six Harris stayed focused on her agenda and didn't take the race bait on Trump. All right, we shall see. Let us go to the first part of this interview. Oka, I'm sorry, just play it up. All right, Let's go to the first part. This first video is eight minutes and thirteen seconds. I'll stop it as we go along, as I find things interesting. I'm gonna say this right off the bat. This is Dana Bash interviewing Kamala Harris and Tim Walls, her first interview, solo interview after thirty nine days on the campaign trail, her first solo in and honestly, I find it very ironic. This this. This pink cloud that the Democrats had when when Biden excuse me, stepped down and they were all excited for Kamala. It it seemed to it seemed to cloud the judgment of people on whether or not, you know, do we care what this woman believes or or or what she thinks or people were just so relieved, I guess is what I'm trying to say. People were so relieved that they were just thrilled, and they were thrilled to paint Kamala as as the next big thing. This is her moment, YadA, YadA, YadA. But as time goes by, it seems like we're having all the same conversations with her that we are or were having with President Biden, which were I don't know, where is President Biden? Remember that guy? Whatever happened to him? We need a where are they now? Video on Joe Biden. But we're having all the same conversations, aren't we can can Kamela do an unscripted interview? Can she can she do an interview longer than ten minutes? Can she do one? Buy herself? I mean, we're having the same conversations. It's absolutely crazy. So first of all, it's insane that this is our first interview and then the first sit down she does it whipped Tim Walls. So right there, it's bad optics. Now, there are a lot of liberals who are saying, well, hey, lots of presidential candidates do their do joint interviews with their VP candidates. That's true, but never their first one and never their only one. And it's terrible optics that we're supposed to be thrilled that this is the first so called black woman to run for president and potentially to be president. I'd like to remind everybody she could be the president right now. All Joe Biden would have to do would be to step down. She could be right right now. They don't want her to be. So this woman, you know, potentially the first black woman president missed I'm speaking herself, has to have her white handler next to her while she's doing an interview. Bad bad optics. Imagine if the tables were turned and that was any any Republican with his with his female, the female he's working for. Right, Imagine a black Republican woman Kandi Rice, going in and being like, well, I have to bring George with me to talk. So already, bad bad optics out the gate. Even though some liberal liberals are trying to excuse it, I know in the back of their mind that's sitting with them. I know there's a poor taste in their mouth about it. I don't understand the the set where I think they were in. Now they're on tour. They're doing their bus tour there in Savannah, Georgia. Now they're Savannah, which is a beautiful, beautiful place. So I don't understand the set. They were in some kind of office building or some kind of conference room, and oh my gosh, like, guys, let me say this. I'm becoming more and more convinced the Democrats really are just writing her off. And maybe maybe there's a chance she'll win through some cheating. They're certainly gonna pull out all the stops. I get that, But I think the Democrats have written her off because it's clear to me they haven't even bothered to give her a handler, because they haven't even bothered to give her a minder, somebody to look at all the optics, to read the room, to read the set. She's in this low chair, she's sitting lower than tim walls. She looks small, she's hunched over, she has terrible posture. She's hunched over. She looks small, she looks tired, which of course she would because this is a tough job to run for president. But again, that's why you have your handlers, your minders. The people going okay, no, we have to touch up miss Harris, missus Harris. We have to touch her up, or this lighting is bad, or this angle is bad, or she doesn't have the power position in this seating arrangement. No one was there to do that for her. So it looked, observed from the start, just bad optic. So to me, that's telling me the Democrats aren't serious about her winning because they would have an image consultant with her at every moment unless they do. And she's just not listening to that person at all. And I mean it could be that too, but my best guess, my gut is telling me that that she just doesn't have an image consultant. They're not really spending a lot of effort for her on this. I think, all right, so let's go ahead and start with this. Let's play the beginning this first video eight minute. And Vice President govern Well, thank you so much for sitting down with me and bringing the bus. The bus stoor is well underway here in Georgia. You have less time to make your case to voters than any candidate in modern American history. Three, The voters are really eager to hear what your plans are if you are elected. What would you do on day one in the White House. Well, there are a number of things I will tell you. First and foremost, one of my highest priorities is to do what we can to support and strengthen them. Okay, I'm going to stop here. She's about to I can tell already she's about to say a lot and nothing. This is weak sauce from the start. First of all, this is pre tape. It should be live, but this is pre tape, weak sauce from the start. Does this sound like somebody who's running for president? I want you to think back to the Dama Bashed interview with Jade Vance to think about how combad. I she was with him as we go through this interview, but that shouldn't surprise you. But I want you to think about how exuberant he sounded, how energized he sounded, how engaged he's sounded. I'm I think I would love to hear what doctor Drew has to say. Doctor Drupinski can always tell by looking at somebody. I would love to note she she's got to be medicated in some way. It is insane to me that she is this subdued from the outset of her very first interview, even when Dana says, she points out the window and she says, you're on your bus tour, and she points to the bus which is presumably out there, and Tim and Camilla kind of look out and they kind of grin and have a silent giggle, But there's no kind of where is all this, like, coach Tim enthusiasm. She this is your first time talking to the American public at large in an interview format, and this is how you start out just so, and you're the first, You're this first, you're this first black woman, first, Asian Pacific American first woman first. YadA, YadA, YadA, you're this first and this is the campaign of joy and excitement. And this is how she begins the first few seconds of the first words she's saying to America in an interview, off to a bad start. Already, the middle class. When I look at the aspirations, the goals, the ambitions of the American people, I think that people are ready for a new way forward in a way that generations of Americans have been fueled by hope and by optimism. I think, sadly, in the last decade. We have had in the former president someone who has really been pushing an agenda and an environment that is about diminishing the character and the strength of who we are as Americans, really dividing our nation. And I think people are ready to turn the page on that. So what would you do? Day one? Day one? It's going to be about one implementing my plan for what I call an opportunity. Okay, stop right there, All right, interesting, I'm going to give Dan a credit for this. She went back because CaMLA didn't answer that question, did she. That was a bunch of vague nothing. That's California speak. If you listened to Gavin Newsom, that's how he talks. That's California speak. So yeah, you got a very California answer there. But Dana didn't let her rigg go out. She asked her, what are you gonna do? She's like, I'm gonna the middle class is my priority, and then she talked about in atmosphere and divisiveness in the American dream. But so good on, Dana. Let's see what she has to say. Is this part more. Specific opportunity economy. I've already laid out a number of proposals in that regard. Where where really where are they is? There's still nothing on her website as I'm recording this, there's still nothing on our website. As a matter of fact. Let me go check right now, because maybe something came up while I was fiddling with the technology trying to get this up and running. Let's see KamalaHarris dot org. Go to KamalaHarris dot org or I think it's KamalaHarris dot com. Okay, Kamala Harris for President case starts with fundraising on the front page, and that makes sense. No, let's say join the campaign. Okay, Let's go to the menu menu, Meet Kamela, meet Tim, take action. Nope, still no policy positions. Forty one days after taking the job, still no policy positions, So I don't know what she's talking about. I line them out. Also, you're gonna hear I'm guessing her this is her pivoting to the middle. Her pivot to the middle is just taking all of Trump's talking points. Opportunity economy. That sounds like opportunity zones. Everybody, let's keep going. FCB Faith is your rhythm and preystation. I listen, my mom listens, pretty much the whole family. You know, you know. Love that just say what you don't. Don't don't I know, Jill, come. Tro Listen to FCB Faith on iHeartRadio Odyssey at fcbfaith dot com, or tell your smart speaker to play e FCB Faith on iHeartRadio. Which include what we're going to do to bring down the cost of everyday goods, what we're going to do to invest in America's small businesses, what we're going to do to invest in families, for example, extending the child tax credit to six thousand dollars for families for the first year of their child's life, to help them buy a car seat, to help them buy baby clothes, a crib, there's the work that we're going to do that is about investing in the American family around affordable housing, a big issue in our country right now. So there are a number of things on day one. What about you? Well, I'm excited about this. Okay, there are a number of things on day one, but girl, you only have one day on day one. Day one is one day. So she just laid out a lot of general things about giving stuff to businesses and helping middle class and attacks credit and that's day one. Really, how does the American president do all that on day one? I mean, I'm obviously that wasn't an answer, But it wasn't even close to an answer, I guess, is what I'm saying. Like, it didn't even pretend to be an answer. What am I going to do on day one? Here's a bunch of general, vague things that will take decades to do again. This is how stupid she is. This is why she has waited this, this is why she didn't even make it to Iowa in the primaries. She's this dumb. She has no thoughts of her own. She really, I really don't think she has any policy thoughts. I really don't think she cares. I'm being dead serious about that. I don't think she cares. This is a job for her, it's a status thing for her. I don't think she knows anything about anything. Not to mention the fact that Dana should have interrupted her, there, you're in office right now, why haven't these things been done? And make her answer that even if the answer is, hey, I'm just the vice president. You've got to vote for me for president in order for these things to get done, that would be a dumb answer, but it would be an answer, And I think at least the question would have been asked, why hasn't she done any of those? But all of the all the's just this weak sauce. It's meaningless, it means nothing. She's not gonna get anything done on day one because she does know what happens on day one in the oval office. The answer to that question, by an intelligent candidate is I'm gonna repeal xyz executive order because that is something you can do on day one. Right. Biden came in, What do you do? Day one? He reversed? Day one? Reverse Trump's border policies. Day one? Trump came into office. What did he do? Day one? He reversed a bunch of Obama's executive orders. Think he did like twenty two on day one, so that's a day one answer. Not this. Well, we're gonna We're gonna continue the work that I've already laid out. No, you haven't laid it out anywhere. That's why people are asking you to do an interview. Isn't that the whole point of this interview, so you can lay out this stuff. I feel like we're being pranked. This is a joke, this is a prank. I just I don't expect anything else from the Democrats, because what else are they gonna do. The whole situation is crazy. They're just throwing everything against the wall to see what works. But I just can't believe the media is going along with this. I mean, I know that they're dishonest, I know that I know their bias, but this is almost too much. It's so obvious how unqualified she is, that the questions ask themselves, or they should ask themselves that that's how easy they are. And the media is not even following up it. But of course, calm down here, of course I know what this is. I get it. It's just they're trying to get her over the finishing line. But it's just amazing to watch and just see it unfold in real time. She's said so far absolutely nothing. Let's see what coach has to say, Honest to God. Here's the other thing I like to do. Because I'm all into my body language now, I'm doing a lot of body language stuff on YouTube. When I say doing a lot of body language, I'm like eating chips and watching body language videos. But one of the things I've picked up is watching people the sound off, because your face can't lie. Your words can lie, but it's very difficult for your face to lie. And sometimes when you watch with the sound off, you see in a person's face what they're really doing. It was really interesting. I'll give you as an example this the gentleman I was watching. His name is Chase Hughes. I really love this guy. I think about to take one of his courses. But he was reviewing a video of a young father whose kid had supposedly been kidnapped. Turns out the father was responsible for hurting the child. But while they were looking for the kid, and you know, is out there in front of the cameras and he's making this plea oh, please help me find my son. And he's crying and screaming, and so the behavior analyst doctor Hughes said, this morning, I invited my children, and I think they were like in the ten to fourteen range. I invited my children to come in and watch this video, but I put it on mute and they had They didn't know what I was doing. I had no idea I put this video on. I said, what do you think this guy just based on how he looks and what his face is doing, what do you think this guy is talking about? And they said, it looks like he did something wrong, and he knows he did something wrong. He feels bad about what he did, what he did, and he wants people to forgive him. Now, what he was saying was, please help me find my son. He's missing. We just want him back, that's what he was saying. And of course it turned out that, yeah, he did do something to his kids. So I thought there was amazing that. So if you watch this interview with the sound turned off and you watch how how much teeth bearing Kamela does, teeth bearing is actually not a friendly body language sign. It's not and every almost every other part of the animal kingdom and most of the civilized world, bearing your teeth is seen as a threat. So why Asians don't really mile? And you go to Japan and Korean and they're not. And it's like honor culture isn't smiley culture, you know, because smiling is intimate or a threat. So you watch how much? How many much teeth? Kamala, How's going on in this think? And then you watch Coach too, and I'll tell you what. When you watch him with the sound off, you know what you see. You see a man who deeply regrets how deep he is in Let's see what Coach has to say. Agenda do as I said, the idea of inspiring America to what can be. And I think many of these things that the Vice President's proposing are are things that we share in values. In the child tax credit is one we know that reduces childhood poverty by a third. We did it in Minnesota. To have a federal partner in this unbelievable, I think, in the impact that we can make Holy cow. Okay, So right there, what did Tim Walls? He gave actual information, actual information. So you go from that word salad from Camela to Tim, who's like I still obviously I'm not going to agree with anything he says, but he's saying something. He gave information, he deferred back to his boss, right the vice president. I think our values line up, and here's what I did as governor. Holy cow, she's running for president, not him. She has absolutely no policy experience to lean on except putting black man in jail. For spoken week. You talked about you call it the opportunity economy. You are well aware that right now many Americans are struggling. There's a crisis of affordability. One of your campaign themes is We're not going back. But I wonder what you say to voters who do want to go back when it comes to the economy, specifically because their groceries were less expensive, housing was more affordable when Donald Trump was president. Well, let's start with the fact that when Joe Biden and I came in office during the height of a pandemic, we saw over ten million jobs were lost. People. I mean literally, we were all tracking the numbers. Hundreds of people a day were dying because of COVID. The economy had crashed, in large part, all of that because of mismanagement by Donald Trump of that crisis. When we came in, our highest priority was to do what we could to rescue America. And today we know that we have inflation at under three percent. A lot of our policies have led to the reality that America recovered faster than any wealthy nation around the world. But you are right, prices, in particular for groceries, are still too high. The American people know what I know it, which is why my agenda includes what we need to do to bring down the price of groceries, for example, dealing with an issue like price gouging, what we need to do to extend the child tax credit to help young families be able to take care of their children in their most formative years. Hang on, Okay, so she just said that the economy crashed during COVID because of mismanagement from Donald Trump. But now she's saying that groceries are so high because of price gouging. Well, which is it? Was it Donald Trump's fault or was it all the big, big grocery gouging everybody? Again, this is more non answers. None of this is an answer. And you'll notice again again the glaring elephant in the room, which is this should be every question Dana. This should be every response Dana has. Why aren't you taking care of it? Now? This economy has been back. You just said, okay, inflation's going down. Well, you've been in office for four years. Why was it going up? I haven't finished yet, but she still hasn't answered about what are Americans to do when they say, hey, we want to go back to when the economy was good, and that was under Trump, whether or not you blame his policies for what happened years later. When Trump was president, it wasn't like this and everybody knows it. And the idea that a that Kamela response to that first by saying basically, it's all in your head, and then second tries to loop back and say, well, we know you're suffering, but we're we're gonna make it better as soon as you elect me. Yes, I've been here for three and a half years, but as soon as I'm in the other job, then well then we'll do it. It's just the idea that anyone thinks that they can get away with it, and the idea that there's even a remote chance that they can again. I just we are we're in crazy town. We're in. We're in the craziest timeline. How do we get out? We need doctor Strange to show up and open a portal. But none of this makes sense me. I can't believe Diana's sitting there with straight fates and folks. I don't care what CNN tries to tell you. This video is highly edited. This is nineteen What did I end up say twenty nine? I don't even think it makes it to twenty nine minutes. This is about twenty minutes of nothing, twenty minutes of this. This is what made it to the interview. Now you ask yourself what's on the editing room floor. Don't let CNN tell you they didn't edit this. This is highly edited, and when you look at it, it's easy to tell what. We need to do to bring down the cost of housing. My proposal includes what would be a tax credit of twenty five thousand dollars for first time home buyers so they can just have enough to put a down payment on a home, which is part of the American dream and their aspiration, but do it in a way that allows them to actually get on the path to achieving that goal in that dream. So you have been vice president for three and a half years. The steps that you're talking about, now, why haven't you done them already? Well, first of all, we had to recover as an economy, and we have done that. I'm very proud of the work that we have done that has brought inflation down to less than three percent, The work that we have done to cap the cost of insulin at thirty five dollars a month for seniors. Donald Trump said he was going to do a number of things, including allowing Medicare to negotiate drug prices. Never happened. We did it lies. First of all, those are lies. One of the things this thirty five dollars cap on insulin thing drives me crazy. And I don't know why the conservative press does not push back on this. Do y'all not remember that that was a Trump thing. Trump did that. Obamacare raised insulin to sky high. Trump came and he said, no, we're not doing this, managed to negotiate it with insurance and Medicare to lower it to thirty five dollars. Biden came in and reversed it. One of the first things he did. He reversed it. Then he came back in and redid it. And so now they've claimed it. So all of these are all lies that this is what. No, the Biden administration cut all this. They're just sort of bringing it back piecemeal because as people suffer, they realize, oh, we're we might not win on an election anyway. Go on. So now, and I as I travel in the state of Georgia and around our country, the number of seniors that have benefited I've met. I was in Nevada recently a grandmother who showed me her receipts and before we capped the cost of insullin for seniors at thirty five dollars a month, she was playing hundreds of dollars up to thousands of dollars a. Month for her insulin. She's not doing that. And you maintain Bidenomics is a success. I maintain that when we do the work of bringing down prescription medication for the American people, including capping the cost of the annual cost of prescription medication for seniors at two thousand, when we do what we did in the first year of being in office to extend the child tax credits so that we cut child poverty in America by over fifty percent, When we do what we have done to invest in the American people in bringing manufacturing back to the United States, so that we created over eight hundred thousand new manufacturing jobs, bringing business back to America. What we have done to improve the supply chain so we're not relying on foreign governments to supply American families with their basic needs. I'll say that that's good work. There's more to do, but that's good work. That's amazing. This is amazing. It's really amazing watching it and watching her face, she's like, again, she didn't answer the question. She knows how bad things are. She just ran from the Biden economy. She just lied about things getting better. She knows everything. Ser she just keep this, gave this whole word solid. But when we lowered the cap on X, Y, and Z and we're bringing back American jobs, where when when did this happen? Nobody thinks any of that happened. It's just gobly goog at this point. But the way she's so proud of herself. You should see her face. I don't know if you're watching this your faith, she's just like that haughty look, like I think we're doing really good and that everybody is the crux of the Kamala Harris campaign. It's all she has, yes Queen. That's all she has is yes Queen. That's why she's getting antsy about this debate, talking about maybe she will maybe she won't show up because now the rules, I don't know about the rules. They thought the liberals can't get it right. They can't get it right. They thought it would be a win to cut, to not allow Trump to interrupt his opponents, so to keep the mics cut, and all it did was make them more controlled and make them more disc Now that the hair is campus like, well, we don't want the MIC's cut. We might need to butt in to combat some lies. Oh now they don't. Why because all Kamala has is yes, Queen. I think that well, I think I'll say that's pretty good work. If I do say so myself, Dana. When she gets like that, that's when that's that's her cue. This is this part of the conversation is over. I'm yes, queening us out. I want you to think about it too much further, it's all she has. So she said nothing, she's answered nothing. There's no policy prescriptions here. And the glaring root, the glaring elephant in the room, which Dana has now brought up twice. Good on her is that she's already in office and none of this has happened, and it's all happened under her boss's administration. And this is again I think Camla's high, I do, and good for good reason. I think she knows the trouble she's in. Can you imagine the soul sucking, absolute degradation of what she has to do every day. She knows she's not qualified for this job. Furthermore, she knows she has no allies in the Democrat Party. She is all alone. She has no one. Even Gavin went back home. She's alone. There's probably all kinds of shenanigans going on behind the scenes too. She's got to go out there and run against the administration she's serving in without running against the administration she's serving in. And she's not smart enough to even make an attempt at such a complicated strategy. Yes, of course she's on drugs. She probably needs heavy medication to get through every day. And honestly can't say I blame her. I want to get some clarity on where you stand on some key policy issues. Energy is a big one. When you were in Congress, you supported the Green New Deal, and in twenty nineteen you said, quote, there is no question I'm in favor of banning fracking. Cracking, as you know, is a pretty big issue, particularly in your must win state of Pennsylvania. Do you still want to ban fracking? No, And I made that clear on the debate stage in twenty twenty that I would not ban fracking. As vice president, I did not banfracking. As president, I will not banfracking. Hang on now this part I do recall from the NPR the six takeaways. Let's see the dumb mismanagement. No, I think it was in this one where she said, nope, she's saving for the mill. Oh, here we go. She has some things to clean up. She cast a tiebreaking vote in Congress for expanding tracking leases. It took her a while to make that point. Hmm. Yeah. They quoted her in a CNN town hall There's no question I am in favor of banning fracking and starting with what we can do day one around public lands. This is NPR quoted her in twenty nineteen when she was running for president herself. She said during a CNN town hall focus on climate change, I'm sure. I'm sure the Trump camp has this already. There's no question I'm in favor of banning fracking and starting with what we can do on day one around public lands. There you go. So she just told a bold face lie. And if you look at the screenshot I'm looking at, it's clear she knows it's a Why. In twenty nineteen, I believe at a town hall you said you were asked, would you commit to implementing a federal ban on fracking on your first day in office? And you said, there's no question in favor of banning fracking. So yes, So it changed in that campaign. In twenty twenty. I made very clear where I stand. We are in twenty twenty four, and I've not changed that position or will I going forward. I kept my word and I will keep my word. What made you change that position at the time. Well, let's be clear, my values have not changed. Okay, all right, I want to tell you what she did. You might just be listening to this. When Dana said, now, these are very nice questions, but I have to say they're more, way, more aggressive than I thought Dane was capable of. She said, she said, you know what's changed, Why did you change? And Kamala leans back, she does that turkey neck thing, that kind of that you do when you're like whoa, whoa, whoah, stop, you know what I mean? She puts her hands up now, doctor Hugheso it says when you put your hands up like that, that is a request to stop. That's body language for stop. So whatever the person's saying to you, you wanted to stop. And she's retreating that whoa, whoa, whoa who so already I mean, it's both days lie. And she caught her there with that oh well, your quote said in twenty nineteen, and then Kamela came back and said, well, in twenty twenty, I didn't say that. Now. I think what she's banking on is that in some gas and oil states when she was campaigning, she did temper the message and there were a couple of times when she said things like I'm not for an all out ban on cracking. I think there's negotiations to be made. I think there's things to talk about there. So I think that's what she's banking on. But again, if you want to look at body language, if you want to go look at this video, look at what coach is doing next to her. He's looking down, he looks uncomfortable. He knows she's caught in a lie. I believe it is very important that we take seriously what we must do to guard against what is a clear crisis in terms of the climate. And to do that, we can do what we have. Accomplished thus far, the Inflation Reduction Act, what we have done to invest, by my calculation, over probably a trillion dollars over the next ten years investing in a clean energy economy. What we've already done, creating over three hundred thousand new clean energy jobs. That tells me, from my experience as vice president, we can do it without banning fracking. In fact, Dana Dan, excuse me, I cast the tie breaking vote that actually increased leases for fracking as vice president. So I'm very clear about where I stand. And was there some policy or scientific data that you saw that you said, oh, okay, I get it now. What I have seen is that we can we can grow, and we can increase a thriving clean energy economy without banning fracking. Okay, wow, okay, that is that is part one. And I think in the interest of you know, I'll follow suit with CNN and the interest of keeping this not too insane, I'm going to stop this. So we'll make this episode one and the next episode will be Part two and then part three. But they're not long. I mean, they're not long segments, so you know, maybe they'll be more interesting for the listener if these are a little less behemoth, if you will. I okay, so what I've seen so far, Camila did not understand the assignment. She was ill prepared. This is a terrible, terrible candidate by all measurements. Whoever wrote that NPR article is on drugs or just a Kamerla Harris Stan probably both. I imagine what's gonna happen with Harris. It's the same thing that happened with Beto right where Beto or Rourke. He was running in Texas and he was like the Libs loved him, and Hollywood came out for him, and this is our anti gun guy. He's gonna win and he's gonna change things and then he's gonna run for president. And Betto, of course, was a crazy person. He was not a mentally healthy man, first of all, and he was a terrible politician. He was just some brat that ran on him with his daddy's trust fund money. But they do you guys remember Beto? I mean, do you remember the fawning? Was he on the cover of Variety and he was like looking all Texas next to his truck and now all of that, he went to red carpet interview and he was just the guy of the moment. They loved that guy. They loved him. And then when he lost hugely, which was never it was always he was always going to lose big, he lost and he decided he was going to run for president. And then when he was running for president, there were other people next to him like Kamala right, they're black or women candidates. And the Liberals were like, I remember seeing Sarah Silverman going sorry about Oh, you know, maybe we did get a little over excited about you. You're a nice guy, but we might have oversold you because we are so excited. So they admitted it. Then they looked back on him. Now they look back at him and they think that guy's a door, Like what were we thinking? That's how they're going to be with Camela right now. They're just writing all this stuff because they're desperate. They want it to be true. So they're projecting it to be true. They're desperate for it to be true. If it's not true, then we got Trump forty seven. So they're desperate for to be true. And man, old man to watch just that first eight minutes of that interview and think that anyone could come away thinking, oh, she nailed it. She said nothing. You're not left with any I have no more clarity now, I don't. I'm never I was never gonna like this. I'm biased, I get that, but I have no more clarity on who Camela is, what she believes, or what she plans to do in the first eight minutes of this interview than I did when I sat down. The most information I got was the twenty five seconds that Tim Wall spoke. This is terrible. The optics are bad. She looks tired. He looks tired, Dana looks tired. The room is so dark and weird, like their campaign. I just. I got a lot. I got stuff rolling around in my head here, folks. I'm not quite sure where to put it or how to put it. But I've been making a lot of noise noes, and I've been formulating something, something is, Something's coming together in my brain, there's some idea that's coming together and I can't quite nail it down yet. A lot of stuff is happening simultaneously in politics and entertainment, and I don't think it's an accident, and I'm trying to formulate how all of these things fit together. But I'm seeing themes developing. And what I'm also seeing is that. Is that. I think more people are learning to view action and not words, and we're seeing the replace We're seeing a lot of concept words and values being replaced, even people right under our eyes. This is what I think, And I don't mean to sound that like invasion of the body snatchers. That's not what I mean. But like you could say, we have the replacement theory for voting right where you flood the country with the illegal immigrants, you make them legal, and then they'll vote for Democrats. I think there's a replacement sort of thing going on in entertainment now where where they're repurposing all these old stories. Look at Star Wars, look at Snow White, look at whatever, Ghostbusters whatever. They're stripping out the old values and they're replacing them so you still have the brand that recognizability, but the values are not the same, the people are not the same. And even if you look at Star Wars, the story isn't even the same. It's just the name that's the same. We're seeing that, and we're seeing that with this campaign. We've literally stripped out right the original campaign, the Biden Paris campaign, stripped that away, was it was literally replaced, and now it's replaced with this version that that has no values, no morals, no direction, no purpose, no strategy, using a lot of nice airy words like joy, when all the symbolism behind it is dark and cavernous and empty. I don't know. Something's coming together in my mind, but it's not there yet, and so I can't I can't write it down, and I can't do a show on it because I don't even know what I'm trying to say. I just feel like something's coming up there and tip my tongue. If you know what I'm trying to say, write to me. J Lty at proton mail dot com. J L. T Y at ProtonMail dot com.

Real Kira Davis Elon is rolling out on new features and they're doing some creator revenue shares, and I'm really trying to increase my presence over there because at some point, maybe the last free speech platform standing. I'm gonna go. I'll be back for part two of this twenty minute interview that they've divided up in the three parts you get. That's all you get America thirty nine days into a brand new presidential campaign. How many interviews has Jdvan's done by this time? All camel is gonna give you all you've earned from her America is twenty minutes, and she's the vice president. Think of the stories that woman has to tell. She should be able to fill an entire hour with stories alone. You could distract the interview with stories. You don't even have to do your word salads to say nothing. Just tell a story. At least you're telling something that really happened and was interesting. But politicians from California are not interesting people because they face no challenges and they need no intellect to succeed. All right, right to me? J lt Y at proton mail dot com will be back with part two on the next episode. Until we meet again. Every once in a while, remember to just stop and listen to yourself.
