In last week’s “debate,” Kamala Harris was allowed by the “moderators” to get away with telling long-debunked lies, evading questions, and reciting vague answers and platitudes with few if any details.
Several media outlets are understandably blasting ABC’s moderators as the most biased in modern history, as they repeatedly drilled and “fact-checked” Trump, ignoring vital current issues to drag up fake accusations and controversies from four or five years ago.
This isn’t to excuse Trump’s substandard performance.
He shouldn’t have allowed himself to be riled so much and get distracted, since he had to know going in that that was Harris’ strategy and the ABC duo would do anything possible to help her.
If there is another debate, I hope he’ll be better prepared. (Harris’ people immediately called for another debate, but I suspect that was just political theater. If they really believed she won that big and took the lead, they’d never risk giving Trump a do-over.)
But amid too much rambling and sidetracking, Trump did get in some of the night’s best lines, and his summation was powerful and persuasive…
He asked why, if Harris has all these great plans for improving Americans’ lives and fixing the problems she and Biden caused, she hasn’t put any of them into effect yet, or why she doesn’t go right back to DC and enact them now.
I hope people were still watching by then.
Here are a few of my takeaways I haven’t heard anyone else mention…
No. 1: Where were the “fact-checks” when Harris kept referring to abortion as protecting what a woman can do to “her own body”?
Since she evaded the question of where she would draw the line at viability (the line people usually choose when they refuse to accept that life begins at conception), I assume she knows that most Americans find late-term abortion to be infanticide.
Why won’t she tell us, in her view, at what point does a baby in the womb become a separate person from its mother?
If her excuse for not addressing that is that late-term abortion never happens, then why did her running mate find it so important to legalize it in Minnesota?
No. 2: I was never aware until last night that Kamala’s lifelong passion has been small business. If so, then why has she spent her entire career at the government trough and never started or run a small business?
She had to go all the way back to her childhood nanny to think of a small business owner she knew. She did claim to have worked at a McDonald’s once, but finding evidence of that seems to be harder than getting a photo of the Loch Ness Monster.
And did you notice that her solution to everything (small business creation, affording a house, helping young parents, “climate change”) is “government investments,” which is what people who know nothing about real investments call “spending a truckload of the taxpayers’ money”?
By the way, that would create even more inflation, just as the “Inflation Reduction Act” that even Biden admitted was really a green new deal spending bill did.
She cast the tie-breaking vote to pass that.
Charles Mizrahi was one of the first to call out Biden’s Green New Deal hoax. But more on that below…
No. 3: Nobody seems to be fact-checking her lie that multiple Capitol Police officers died on January 6, 2021 (One officer died the day afterward, the coroner ruling it a stroke from natural causes.)
But what really stuck out to me was her hyperbolic claim that January 6th was “the worst attack on our democracy since the Civil War.”
It didn’t even prevent Congress from certifying the election later that day. FYI: The Senate was actually bombed in 1983.
And did nobody but me notice that she made this ludicrous claim on what was literally the eve of September 11th?
I don’t know about her, but if I had a time machine and could go back and change the events of any day since the Civil War, I wouldn’t pick January 6, 2021; I’d pick September 11, 2001.

Note from Charles: Governor Huckabee doesn’t tolerate nonsense, and that’s one of the things I respect about him.
He’s quick to call out when something doesn’t add up.
When I looked deeper into “green energy,” I realized it was not as environmentally friendly as it claimed to be.
As George Washington wisely said, “When one side of a story is heard … the human mind becomes impressed with it.”
The founder of our country was warning us to think critically and question what we hear, especially when only one side of the story is being told.
And that’s what Washington was doing when they hyped up green energy…
Lies, Lies and More Lies! The TRUTH About Green Energy
LIE: After 9/11, the Environmental Protection Agency assured us: “The air is safe to breathe” in New York City.
FACT: According to the World Trade Center Health Program, anyone within a 1.5-mile radius of the World Trade Center was at risk of exposure to asbestos as well as other carcinogens such as lead, mercury, benzene and dioxins.
LIE: In 2020, Public Health Officials said: “Masks will protect against the spread of COVID.”
FACT: More than two years on, the best scientific evidence says that masks don’t stop COVID — and public health officials continue to ignore it.
LIE: President Biden is doing everything in his power to push a green energy agenda to clean our air and water and protect our people’s health.
FACT: Washington gambled $1 trillion of our money and after 15 years, they’ve barely moved the needle!
Clean energy provides just 12% of America’s energy needs. Cronies are getting rich, and we are getting hoodwinked.
And the clean energy, well it’s not that clean…
Research from Harvard shows that solar panels will create 78 million tons of hazardous waste in just 30 years … and large-wind farms, well they actually increase global warming rather than helping to reduce it.
Renewable, clean, green — whatever they want to call it — energy is the mother of all lies.
Even though I don’t suffer fools gladly, I too fell for the lies about green energy, hook–line–and sinker.
So much so that in June of 2021, I traded in my gas-powered Volvo for a Tesla Series 3.
And then in November 2022, I traded in my second gas-powered Volvo for a Tesla Series Y.
I was all in on green energy and felt proud that I wasn’t fueling my cars with fossil fuel.
I had a big smile on my face every time I passed the gas station.
I installed an electric charger, at a cost of $2,500, in my carport. I really felt I was doing my part to make the planet healthier and cleaner for my children and grandchildren.
However, the more I researched, the more something just wasn’t sitting well with me.
I started digging in beyond the headlines.
I reached out to experts in the fields (I shared my interview with Mark Mills here after he completely flipped me on “green energy”), read trade journals, and started to carefully look at the data.
And boy, did I get it wrong.
I knew that to generate electricity you need fossil fuels … specifically coal and natural gas. But I figured that less CO2 was produced for electricity than would be for filling my car up with gas.
After further digging, I came to the conclusion that Tesla wasn’t really zero-emission after all.
But that’s not what Washington wants us to know.
Inconvenient & Dirty Truth About Energy
Get ready for more lies we’ve been spoon-fed by our government. And this one really gets my blood boiling.
The real impact on the environment caused by green energy…
- Solar panels are about to create a tidal wave of toxic waste as they’re thrown away.
- Large wind farms increase the earth’s surface temperature instead of lowering it.
- Solar panels emit around 50g of CO2 per kWh into the atmosphere.
In other words, green energy isn’t so green or good for the environment.
For just one single EV battery, the resources needed are massive…
And who’s doing all this mining to extract all these materials?
Child slaves!
According to a Harvard study, roughly 75% of the world’s supply of cobalt is mined in the Congo, often by peasants and children in sub-human conditions.
In the Democratic Republic of the Congo, approximately 40,000 children work for up to 12 hours a day in the mines.
These children will spend the day carrying heavy rocks through narrow tunnels. And they make $1 to $2 a day.
This is the human price of “clean energy”!
“The… marketing of state-of-the-art technologies are a stark contrast to the children carrying bags of rocks.” — Amnesty International
Once mined, how are we moving all these materials? With huge earth-moving vehicles that run on fossil fuel.
These monster dump trucks aren’t fueled by the wind or sun…
These trucks run on 16-cylinder diesel engines and are enormous … some of them are 22 ft high! It would take four fully grown men standing on top of each other just to reach the top.
These monsters aren’t fueled by the wind or sun and they aren’t powered by fairy dust…
Each gas-guzzling dump truck will consume more than 235,000 gallons of fossil fuel each year. Just think of the carbon footprint it will produce all in the pursuit of “clean energy.”
So while we dig up materials for electric vehicle batteries to replace gas-powered cars. And in moving all these materials burn up as much fuel as 423 passenger cars per year.
On which planet does this make any sense?
So before you buy into any green new deal promises, look at the research. There’s nothing green about it.
