Fact-Check: "Kamala Harris Now Supports Donald Trump's Border Wall!"

I've recently heard several MAGAs claiming Vice President Harris now supports their orange messiah's border wall. It may derive from the following Axios article, which I will now dissect. The article starts with, "If she's elected president, Kamala Harris pledges to spend hundreds of millions of dollars on the wall along the southern border — a project she once opposed and called 'un-American'  during the Trump administration." Something tells me this isn't the whole story, but I'll bite. Please continue... "Why it matters: It's the latest example of Harris flip-flopping on her past liberal positions such as supporting Medicare for All and banning fracking — proposals that aides say she now is against. - Harris is embracing a more hawkish immigration policy as Donald Trump's campaign spends tens of millions of dollars attacking her about the border. - But she still has significant differences with Trump on immigration, opposing his app...

Podcast: "I Feel Snitty," Episode 16: "Drumpf Doesn't Know the Best Geography," is now available!

The latest episode of my podcast ( I Feel Snitty ), entitled, "Drumpf Doesn't Know the Best Geography," is now available! Here's a brief description of the episode: Donald Trump made it perfectly clear this past week that he firmly believes the state of Colorado borders the non-state of Mexico. This is, of course, not true. Colorado does border New Mexico, but last I checked, Mexico and New Mexico were not the same thing. I'm being told they still aren't. Thanks, map. In this week's episode, I play a game with (my version of) Trump called, "What Do You Know About a State?," to test his seemingly nonexistent geographical knowledge. Eye-roller discretion is advised.

Jaclyn Cashman is the embarrassment, not Joe Biden

Boston Herald columnist Jaclyn Cashman recently wrote an article entitled, "Joe Biden's the real embarrassment, not America," and I'm here to tell her she's wrong, that she's the embarrassment, not Joe Biden. Cashman began her article by saying this: "Taking a page from Barack Obama's playbook, Joe Biden - ahead of his presidential announcement - goes to Europe and apologizes for America. Biden calls our country an 'embarrassment' for separating families at the border crossing. Never mind that the Obama administration, in which Biden served as vice president, also ramped up deportation - sending millions of illegal immigrants back where they came from. Biden is actively trying to rewrite his legacy on immigration." As well-renowned fact-checker FactCheck.org said with regard to the "apology-tour" claim conservatives like to use, "Although it has been a consistent applause line, the claim doesn't hold up when match...
