Over the last few years, the Biden-Harris regime effectively has delivered to the rogue and terrorist-sponsoring regime in Iran some $60 billion.
In return, the Islamists there have started war against Israel through proxies Hamas and Hezbollah, closed off the Suez Canal and fired on American troops in the region more than 150 times.
So beyond the obvious financial incentives, are there any other reasons that Iran is now interfering in America's 2024 presidential election on behalf of Kamala Harris?
He warns there is.
"That the Iranian regime is meddling in U.S. elections to support the Harris campaign, should serve as a jarring warning that Harris' approach to Iran policy is one that would enable this expansionist regime to keep wreaking horrors on the world, both by itself and through its proxies, especially after it acquires nuclear capability. Why should Iran's government, which treats its own people atrociously, be expected to treat others any better?" he wrote.
He said, "In a significant move that, since the establishment of Iran's Islamist regime, Iranian leaders have actively extended their influence to support a political party and candidate in a U.S. presidential race. This notable intervention is directed towards aiding the Democratic ticket headed by Vice President Kamala Harris. It is a move that signals that Iran's regime hopes to secure an even deeper geopolitical alignment after the upcoming U.S. elections."
The FBI, in fact, recently brought a criminal case against agents for the Iranian regime suspected of hacking into President Donald Trump's campaign and then delivering that information to Democrats.
"A particularly striking element of this revelation is the Democratic campaign's silence regarding the stolen information. Despite having received the data that originated from the Trump campaign, the Democratic camp refrained from acknowledging it until the FBI publicly disclosed the fact on September 18. On September 19, the Harris campaign finally responded, pointing out that it had not utilized any materials that Iranian hackers had allegedly collected from Trump's email accounts," he wrote.
The article explained adding intrigue is the apparent desire of the Iranian regime to align with the Democrat party.
"There appear to be several underlying reasons why Tehran favors a Harris victory. First, Harris would likely continue the current administration's extremely lenient approach to enforcing sanctions on Iran. Under the current U.S. administration, Iran has been able to sell oil at record levels and engage in lucrative trade with European nations – exponentiating Iran's revenues.
"Second, the Iranian regime anticipates that billions of dollars will continue to be released under a Harris administration. In the past four years, significant funds, nearly $60 billion, have effectively been given to Iran's mullahs by the Biden-Harris administration."
He said, "Third, the Iranian regime must be ecstatic over on Harris' reluctance to confront their galloping advancements in nuclear technology. Iran's nuclear program reached its highest level of progress under the Biden-Harris administration."
And finally, he noted, Iran would expect a Harris presidency to "remain passive in response to Tehran's military support for Russia in the ongoing war against Ukraine."
NC Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson, who was recently the target of a CNN piece exposing his alleged past on adult websites and for several controversial statements he allegedly made in the past, continued to have a bad week.
According to The Hill, Robinsin wound up in the hospital being treated for second-degree burns after an incident at a campaign rally.
The incident happened at the Mayberry Truck Show in Mt. Airy, his campaign confirmed on its website.
In the wake of the report exposing his questionable and alleged past, several of Robinson's campaign staffers departed the campaign over the course of the last week.
The candidate wound up being treated for second-degree burns after the incident, which reportedly involved him touching a hot tailpipe.
"I was getting out of the truck and several of my fans and supporters were coming around the truck. I was trying to get out without running into them and doggone if I didn’t lay my hand on that tailpipe, the exhaust pipe,” Robinson said, showing reporters his bandaged hand.
He added, “I am fine. It is just a minor second-degree burn, and it is just fine."
NC Lt. Gov. Robinson was treated for 2nd-degree burns at No. Regional Hospital “following an incident at a campaign event” on Fri night. No foul play.
He “is in good spirits, ... and is excited to return to the campaign trail as scheduled first thing tomorrow morning.” pic.twitter.com/BhnoDxPo6s— Susan Baker (@SusanBa92489649) September 28, 2024
Luckily, Robinson is in good health according to his gubernatorial campaign director.
The director said Robinson "is in good spirits, appreciates the outpouring of well wishes, and is excited to return to the campaign trail as scheduled first thing tomorrow morning."
The Hill explained what Robinson has recently experienced in the media.
The health incident comes shortly after Robinson started receiving backlash following the publishing of CNN’s explosive report about the candidate, detailing a flurry of inflammatory comments he apparently made on a porn site messaging board over 10 years ago, including calling himself a “black NAZI.”
In those posts, the lieutenant governor described his pornography preferences and said he would take Adolf Hitler over “any of the s‑‑‑ that’s in Washington.”
The effects of the hit piece have been devastating, as Republicans, including former President Donald Trump, have distanced themselves from Robinson in recent days.
Trump ever mentioned Robinson's name at a NC rally even after previously endorsing him.
Thankfully the candidate is well and in good spirits, but a second-degree burn is definitely the least of his worries at the moment.
Given the seeming immaculate stock trading prowess shown by both Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and her husband, it's no wonder they continue to draw attention as they continue to amass their personal fortune.
Many, on both sides of the political aisle, believe that Pelosi has used her powerful position in Congress -- for years -- to gain information that only she would be privy to in order to direct her husband to make lucrative stock trades.
According to Breitbart, the Pelosis amazingly timed stock trading superpowers were once again on display, which was so obvious that it even drew criticism from former President Donald Trump.
Trump, during a press conference in New York last week, said that he believes Pelosi should be prosecuted for insider trading.
Trump argued that just a day prior to Visa being sued by the Department of Justice that her husband was aware and knew to unload several thousand shares of the stock before it took a dive.
"Nancy Pelosi has a little problem because her husband sold their Visa stock. They had a lot of Visa stock, one day before Visa, it was announced that Visa is being sued by the Department of Justice. Think of that," Trump said.
Trump added, "Nancy Pelosi sold vast amounts of Visa stock one day before the big lawsuit that we all read about a few days ago, was brought against Visa. You think it was luck? … Nancy Pelosi should be prosecuted for that."
🚨 Trump Calls for the Arrest of Nancy Pelosi

The Post noted that Trump's timeline wasn't accurate in the sense that it was a day before the DOJ sued the financial institution.
The Post cited financial disclosures which show that Pelosi’s husband, Paul, “unloaded 2,000 shares of Visa stock worth between $500,000 and $1 million on July 1,” noting that on Tuesday, “less than three months after the massive transaction, Visa was hit with a DOJ lawsuit alleging that the company illegally monopolized the debit card market.”
However, Trump accused the former Democratic House Speaker of knowing that the lawsuit was coming, hence the sale of at least $500,000 worth of the company's stock before the lawsuit was announced.
Users across social media weighed in on their opinions on whether or not members of Congress should be able to trade stocks, given that many of them are privy to insider information before the public.
"Absolutely not, I'm sick of all these corrupt politicians who make millions by being elected. That's what's wrong with our current government," one X user wrote.
Another X user wrote, "They make it so obvious, yet nothing is ever done. They get richer while breaking the rules and continuing to get away with it."
Currently, a bipartisan group of lawmakers are still attempting to severely restrict their colleagues from engaging in any kind of trading while they hold office.

Have hundreds of hidden biblical prophecies just been unsealed?
An explosive new book says the answer is yes, as it analyzes countless Scriptures in a fresh light to unlock "the mystery of everything."
In "Reaching God Speed," best-selling author Joe Kovacs goes on a breakthrough mission, cracking the divine code on hundreds of Bible passages – both well-known and obscure – to reveal the higher meaning of the verses, going beyond the obvious physical meaning to shine light on what God is broadcasting on the Spirit level, what he calls the incredibly quick and alive "God speed."
"The reason we're so oblivious is because we've all been operating at human speed, relying on our own physical power and our five senses. But there is something extremely important we've all been missing. It holds the key to everything good – the key to life, success, happiness, peace of mind and understanding beyond our wildest imagination. It's perhaps the best-kept secret in the history of mankind and it packs a staggering, invigorating message about our own personal lives and futures being broadcast on all frequencies. All we have to do is open our eyes and ears."
What is God speed?
Kovacs explains, "It's the template revealing the way the Creator of the universe thinks, operates and teaches, having a mind that runs above and beyond the human speed at which all of us regular folk in the flesh naturally think. It is the higher speed or spirit level at which God broadcasts to us, embedding His message in everything."
He says millions of people already understand God speed to some degree, pointing to a simple example.
"Most everyone already knows that when Jesus tells His apostle Peter to feed His sheep, He is NOT talking about a group of physical animals penned up behind His house that need to be fed.
"He's talking about providing His followers the spiritual food they need to grow toward eternal life, because the sheep actually represent PEOPLE. This same approach of listening beyond the physical and hearing things on another level, the spirit level, can be applied to the entire Bible, opening up countless Scriptures to amazing, new understanding."
One famous Bible story to help illustrate the higher level of God speed involves a woman about to be stoned after being caught in adultery, and Jesus writing something mysterious in the dust as He forgives her. It's found in the eighth chapter of the Gospel of John.
"This single event features a real-life woman some 2,000 years ago being forgiven of her sin," Kovacs explains. "And when we listen at God speed, there's so much more being broadcast on the spirit level. The adulterous woman represents all of humanity, as she embodies all of us who have sinned against our true spouse, who is God Himself."
But why was Jesus writing with His finger in the dust? And what might He have been writing?
"We need to use the tools the Bible itself gives us to help us understand the spirit message being broadcast at God speed," explains Kovacs. "First of all, 'dust' is not something insignificant. In fact, it's one of the most important words in all of Scripture, because it's what we're all made of, 'the dust of the ground,' as it says in Genesis 2:7. So at God speed, dust refers to human people in the flesh."
"Then we need to ask ourselves, 'Where else in the Bible does God write something very famous with His own finger?' Here are a couple of hints. There are ten of them and they were given to Moses. Yes, the Ten Commandments, as is mentioned in Deuteronomy 9:10.
"Then connect the Creator's written law to other promises where God says He's writing something, including:
I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts. (Jeremiah 31:33)
I will write on them the name of my God … . And I will also write on them my new name. (Revelation 3:12 NLT)
"So it's possible or even likely that Jesus is using this spectacular teaching moment of the forgiven adulterous woman to let us all know He's going to be writing His laws and instructions on people (the dust of the ground), etching them inside minds and hearts, with the end result of people receiving the name of God written on them. In other words, Jesus is telegraphing the future, providing us a visual preview of awesome things to come by writing on the dust with His finger."
"The Bible also says when the accusers of the adulterous woman HEARD, as in finally hearing the message of God, being convicted and corrected in their hearts, they're no longer accusing anyone. It's not only describing the physical event from 2,000 years ago, it's a prophecy for the future. Because once God writes His instructions on everyone's heart, there won't be anyone left to accuse others of wrongdoing. People will finally get with the divine program."
"God actually promises this elsewhere in Scripture, including in the Book of Ezekiel: 'And I will give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit in you. I will take out your stony, stubborn heart and give you a tender, responsive heart.'" (Ezekiel 36:26 NLT)
"It's simply mind-blowing when we realize that God is always 'declaring the end from the beginning' as He said about Himself in Isaiah 46:10. He tells everyone the end result of events right from the start, so we know exactly what to expect, realizing He's the Teacher in charge of this class and the One controlling everything."
Kovacs is confident even readers with little previous knowledge of Scripture will finally know the secrets of famous Bible events, including mysteries the so-called "experts" have little clue about.
"Reaching God Speed" features a myriad of stunning biblical revelations, as the book:
Besides Scripture itself, the book also probes God's hidden messages embedded in popular movies, hit songs (from Adele and the Beatles to Frank Sinatra and Led Zeppelin), the stories we tell our children, everyday phrases we all say, famous commercial campaigns, historic news events, nature itself, and typical life activities such as inhaling every breath you take, sleeping, waking up and many more.
"Reaching God Speed" hit the top spot in Amazon categories such as "Musical Philosophy & Social Aspects" as well as #1 and #2 (Kindle edition) in Spiritual Self-Help, and #5 and #11 in Christian Personal Growth.

Reporting in 2024 isn't what it was in 1974. Or even 1994.
Now the megacorporations that run networks and publications mostly are partisan – endorsing and promoting one side, the leftist side, of the news.
Some journalism teachers at universities have even said there's no need to report on "both sides" of an issue and ex-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi recently presumptuously instructed a network on what it should and should not be covering.
That often has left the reporting to online websites, citizen reporters and more.
And that faction just won a court victory.
The Institute for Justice explains a Texas court has ruled that a Fort Bend citizen journalist's First Amendment rights were violated by the county sheriff.
A federal court for the Southern District in the state found that the sheriff in Fort Bend County violated Justin Pulliam's rights by excluding him from a news conference in a public park that he was trying to record for his YouTube channel.
It was Judge George C. Hanks Jr. who adopted in full a recommendation from Magistrate Judge Andrew Edison.
His decision pointedly noted, "On July 12, 2021, the FBCSO closed Jones Creek Ranch Park to the public after a corpse was discovered. Pulliam had been filming FBCSO activity in the park before the decision to close the park was announced. After being told the FBCSO had closed the park, Pulliam complained to the FBCSO officer who announced the decision, and to [Sheriff Eric] Fagan directly. The FBCSO officer told Pulliam to go to the park entrance where a press conference would be held. Fagan then told Pulliam that if Pulliam did not go to the park entrance within five minutes, he would be arrested. Pulliam again protested, but eventually walked to his truck and drove to the park entrance where reporters were gathered. Pulliam parked his truck about 10 parking spaces away from where the reporters had parked their cars. About five minutes later, Fagan arrived at the press conference in a golf cart. Pulliam then walked toward the press conference. As Pulliam approached, Fagan told FBCSO Detective Robert Hartfield ('Hartfield') to remove Pulliam from the area of the press conference. Fagan pointed at Pulliam and told Hartfield: 'If he don't do it, arrest him, 'cause he is not part of the local media, so he have to go back.'"
The conclusion was that not only that Fort Bend County violated Justin's free-speech rights, but that his rights were so clearly established that Sheriff Fagan has no "qualified immunity," which the IJ described as "a dubious doctrine the Supreme Court developed to shield officials from accountability for their constitutional violations."
The IJ said the ruling also lets a separate claim for false arrest while Justin was recording deputies move to trial.
"Today's victory establishes that the government cannot give favorable access to the traditional media by discriminating against social-media journalists," said IJ Attorney Christie Herbert. "To the First Amendment, all speakers are equal, a bedrock principle necessary for twenty-first-century journalism."
A second incident developed months later, when a Fort Bend County sergeant arrested Justin for interfering with police, "even though Justin was far from the active scene and had permission from the property owner to record a welfare check on her property," the IJ reported.
"This victory shows how important the First Amendment is to protect investigative journalists like me who use social media to provide hard-hitting, often critical coverage, of the police and other government officials," said Justin.
IJ officials pointed out that just weeks ago, the U.S. Supreme Court said police cannot arrest people for exercising their right to free speech."
The ruling said, "That Fagan's actions violated Pulliam's First Amendment rights was established by the Supreme Court decades ago: 'Once a forum is opened up to assembly or speaking by some groups, government may not prohibit others from assembling or speaking on the basis of what they intend to say.' 'Freedom of the press is a fundamental personal right which is not confined to newspapers and periodicals.' 'Where a government restricts the speech of a private person, the state action may be sustained only if the government can show that the regulation is a precisely drawn means of serving a compelling state interest.' 'The First Amendment also protects Pulliam's right to simply listen and observe the press conference. 'The First Amendment protects the right to hear as well as to speak,' so that which 'silences a willing speaker … also works a constitutional injury against the hearer.'"
It found, "There is no question that Fagan violated clearly established law."
A trial still is pending on Pulliam's false arrest charges against authorities.

JERUSALEM – Once the confirmation of Hezbollah leader's Sayyid Hassan Nassrallah's death was confirmed on Saturday, a wave of conflicting emotions and opinions were evident across the world, although most importantly and relevantly in the Middle East. The principal question of "what next?" was also very much to the fore.
In the all the brouhaha surrounding the death of an arch-terrorist, drug pusher and murderer – for what was Hezbollah if not a hugely powerful cartel – we should pause for a moment and understand just how extraordinary the last two weeks or so have been for Israel, Lebanon, and the entire Middle East.
On Sept. 17, thousands of beepers in the hands of Hezbollah terrorists – mostly in Lebanon but also Syria – simultaneously detonated causing a range of wounds, from minor injuries to blindness, amputations, and even death. Attributed to Israel's Mossad intelligence agency – although not officially confirmed – this operation set in motion the chain of events, which culminated in Nasrallah's demise.
It rocked the terrorist proxy on its heels, and one can only imagine the amount of confusion and suspicion, which emanated from such an attack. The organization shifted to pagers and walkie-talkies for fear of Israeli intelligence intercepting cell phone calls – and then the lower-tech option was used as a weapon against them.
The distrust Hezbollah and IRGC kingpins had of their electronic communications forced them to meet – like mafia dons – in person, to try and thrash out a response to Israel's intelligence successes. It would prove their downfall, as Israel either gained or already had significant and accurate intel about Hezbollah's leaders, up to and including Nasrallah.
He personally must have felt in the last two weeks it was just a matter of time until his number came up. And here's the thing, there was no unanimity within Israel's cabinet as to the decision to take him out. Even a figure such as Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, no Arab-lover, was reportedly somewhat uneasy about eliminating Nasrallah, presumably fearful – and correctly so – of the reprisals that might emanate from this action.
What has been clear for the last two weeks is just how compromised Hezbollah's internal security has become. From an outsider's perspective it doesn't seem possible to achieve the extent of the disruption Israel has caused without a level of superior intelligence, including infiltrating deeply into Hezbollah's organizational structure.
Even before the operations of the last two weeks, Israel's military eliminated some 450 Hezbollah and IRGC operatives, including senior field commanders with significant battlefield experience. The Israeli Air Force also worked to hit the supply lines carrying materiel from Iran or Iranian-aligned proxies in Iraq or Syria to be closer to the Lebanese front.
What can be seen from the reactions to Nasrallah's demise is an odd alignment of people – commentators, so-called journalists, and politicians – who decry Israel's actions labeling it "an escalation," conveniently forgetting the thousands of rockets fired at the country's north and the tens of thousands of displaced citizens because of it. There is a certain level of myopia and cravenness, which allowed the Associated Press to label Nasrallah as "charismatic and shrewd." It brings to mind the Washington Post's description of Abu Bakr al-Baghdai as an "austere religious scholar." (The Post followed that up with labeling Nasrallah a "father figure, and moral compass.")
The fawning over honest-to-goodness murderers, thieves, and terrorists, is a sickness the West is having a hard time dealing with. For its own long-term survival it would do well to drop the suicidal empathy, which permits formerly respected news institutions – among others – to wax lyrical about some truly terrible human beings.
Let us recall, also, those civilians were not just evacuated because of the rockets, but for fears, subsequently confirmed, which showed Hezbollah's powerful Radwan force was planning an Oct. 7-style attack on the Galilee. Although the terrain is much craggier and difficult along the Israel-Lebanon border, a remnant of distant tectonic shifts in the Great Syrian-African Rift than the sand dunes along the Mediterranean coast, it is well-known Hezbollah invested huge sums in creating cross-border attack tunnels.
However, for millions of Middle Easterners, Syrians, Iraqis, and Lebanese – the people who witnessed and suffered from Hezbollah's brutality – let's call it their lived experience – were exultant at the news of Nasrallah's demise. A feeling of hope has begun to germinate, a tiny flame radiating some light and a sense of opportunity, a belief that a fog has been lifted.
Jared Kushner, former President Donald Trump's son-in-law, and a person who was intimately involved in jettisoning the assumptions of the past and looking at the Middle East anew, posted a rare comment on X. He wrote: "Sept. 27 is the most important day in the Middle East since the Abraham Accords breakthrough."
Kushner was also perfectly blunt in his assessment of the mealy-mouthed and cowardly stance of the Biden-Harris administration in general, and the U.S. State Department in particular: "Anyone who has been calling for a ceasefire in the North is wrong. There is no going back for Israel. They cannot afford now to not finish the job and completely dismantle the arsenal that has been aimed at them. They will never get another chance."
There are still many unanswered questions and several imponderables. Will Lebanon be allowed to coalesce around some unity figures so the country can remove itself from the grip of Shia terrorists who wish to lead it down the path to hell? What will Iran and its proxies' response be?
The Houthi already fired a ballistic missile Saturday toward Ben Gurion International Airport near Lod – ironically a significantly mixed Jewish and Arab city. Will Israel perform a limited ground incursion into southern Lebanon to drive Hezbollah operatives – and their missiles – back over the Litani river and farther away from Israel's population centers (although some of their ordnance has a range of several hundreds kilometers, bringing the entire country into range)?
Outside of the immediate reality of the Middle East, what will be with the relationship between the United States and Israel? There were reports, similar to other operations the Jewish state has carried out, it neither sought permission nor informed U.S. officials until the planes were already in the air to destroy Hezbollah's underground HQ.
Two simultaneous things seem to be at work; the first is there is a frosty relationship (at best) between Israel's leaders – particularly Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu – and the Biden administration, including the titular head of that government President Joe Biden, and the U.S. State Department. What is an ally to make of the situation when the sitting president has been reduced, due to the machinations and needs of his own political party, to a bit-part player? Biden is the lamest of lame ducks; a person whom we know is propped up by an avaricious and grasping wife, and a party that cannot 25th Amendment him, for fear his failings will be too closely associated with his anointed successor, Vice President Kamala Harris.
In addition to the cooling of personal relations, there is also very clear a lack of trust between Israel's defense establishment and its U.S. counterparts – and with good reason. Too often plans have either been leaked or telegraphed, and at times the Biden administration has brought undue pressure to bear on its ally, rather than the genocidal terrorists arrayed against it.
The same thing happened right before the strike that knocked out the head of Hezbollah. Perhaps the U.S. and France heard some chatter about a potential attempt on Nasrallha's life; perhaps they put two and two together, assuming if Israel was going after Hezbollah's top-most leadership, Nasrallah would be the ace in the pack, even if they were not sure Israel would assuredly go for it. It did, and it's conducting operations, which provide hope for millions in the Middle East, unconstrained by American timidity.
Vice President Kamala Harris took a trip to the border on Friday in a ridiculous attempt to act as though she cares about the southern border crisis.
According to reports, Harris attempted to turn the tables on former President Donald Trump by pointing out that he "tanked" a border security bill earlier this year, as if that's what has contributed to the chaos and crisis at the southern border.
For a majority of her term as President Joe Biden's "border czar," Harris has stood back and watched as the immigration crisis has spiked to unprecedented numbers.
Many have pointed out that now that the election is near, and the immigration issue is at the top of the issues that voters face in November.
Prior to Harris' trip to the border, former President Trump had plenty to say about Harris' visit.
"After almost four years, Border Czar Kamala Harris has decided, for political reasons, that it’s time for her to go to our broken Southern Border," he said on X.
"What a disgrace that she waited so long, allowing millions of people to enter our Country from prisons, mental institutions, and criminal cells all over the World, not just South America, many of those coming are terrorists, and at a level never seen before!"
After almost four years, Border Czar Kamala Harris has decided, for political reasons, that it’s time for her to go to our broken Southern Border. What a disgrace that she waited so long, allowing millions of people to enter our Country from prisons, mental institutions, and…
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 25, 2024
Trump continued, "She’s trying to con the public like she did a good job at the Border when, in fact, she has destroyed the very fabric of our Nation allowing 21 Million people in from places unknown."
The former president reminded his followers that a border wall was his idea.
"When Kamala is seen at the Border on Friday, she will pass Hundreds of Miles of Wall that was built by TRUMP, and it is Wall that WORKS! When she speaks, be advised that this woman has allowed more than 21 million people into our Country, totally unvetted, and from places unknown," Trump wrote.
Social media users weighed in on Trump's post, pointing out that Harris has been against taking border action since arriving in office.
"It’s all a facade. Just a couple months ago she announced a plan to release every illegal criminal immigrant from detention facilities 'on day one,'" one X user wrote.
Another X user wrote, "Kamala Harris is the Open Border Czar. She is a traitor to America for allowing 21 million invaders to storm our country and take over our social services, housing and soon to be another rigged election by having them vote. These people should all be tried for treason."

Kamala Harris openly has proposed destroying the longtime Senate precedent of a filibuster, that requirement that issues earn the support of 60 senators before they can advance.
Harris has speculated about killing that rule for a specific purpose, to establish abortion for all as the standard for the entirety of America.
But it wouldn't stop there, according to an analysis by Christopher Jacobs in the Federalist.
If she can destroy the filibuster for one of her ideologies, she can for anything, is the warning.
"Harris' announcement that she supports an 'exception' to the filibuster underscores the stakes in November's election. If Democrats gain unified control of both houses of Congress and the White House in January, Harris' statement makes clear that they would undoubtedly use their power to pass radical legislation — not just on abortion but on energy and many other topics," according to the analysis.
"At the risk of mixing metaphors during a discussion of abortion policy, one cannot be half-pregnant when it comes to the Senate filibuster. Harris' talk of an 'exception' masks what is ultimately a binary choice: You either support the legislative filibuster or you don't."
The history of Democrats' efforts to undermine that standard already is in the books.
In 2013 Democrats in the majority abolished the filibuster for presidential nominees, in executive branch offices and lower court judges.
Those were the exceptions, they decided, because they still wanted the filibuster for Supreme Court justices.
That lasted "until … the next vacancy on the Supreme Court, whereupon Republicans, who by then had retaken the Senate, abolished the Senate filibuster for presidential nominees entirely."
"When she says, 'We should eliminate the filibuster.' She doesn't just mean 'for [codifying] Roe [v. Wade],' she means for anything that gets in Democrats' way," the analysis warned.
Her plan already has been undermined by Sen. Joe Manchin, formerly a Democrat now an independent of West Virginia.
He called the filibuster the "Holy Grail of democracy."
Manchin said the danger is the filibuster is "the only thing that keeps us talking and working together" in the Senate.
Already, Sen. Bob Casey, D-Pa., has suggested twisting the rules for "voting rights, women's rights, workers' rights, common sense gun measures" and more.
The analysis warned, "Voters now should understand the stakes — and vote accordingly."

A specialty foundation, the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression, unabashedly supports, free speech, academic freedom, religious liberty, due process, press freedom, freedom of assembly, freedom of conscience and more, mostly in the campus community.
You know, those items that are listed as being protected mostly by the First Amendment.
And it acknowledges there are many individuals who are grateful for a college education and are willing to support academia financially.
But the problem is that many major universities these days impose wildly extreme speech codes, from campuses where "free speech" is restricted to small plots of out-of-the-way grass to sites where expressing an opinion will get you in trouble if it's not what administrators believe.
So it is offering those education supporters a novel way to do that: support education. And yet not fund censorship of students or faculty.
By donating to the foundation.
The foundation continued, "It's no secret that America's colleges and universities struggle to uphold a foundational constitutional right: Freedom of expression. FIRE's 2025 College Free Speech Rankings show that roughly a quarter of students think it is not clear that their administration protects free speech on campus. And if a free speech controversy were to erupt? More than a quarter believe their administration would be unlikely to defend a speaker's right to express their views."
Explaining institutions of higher education should be "bastions of free speech," the report notes they are not.
Now it is those alums, "frequent recipients of university solicitation mailers with return envelopes postmarked for donations," who are in a "unique position to speak with their wallets."
"If you currently donate to a university that violates free speech … consider making a contribution to FIRE instead. When you do, we will notify the school that until it fully protects individual rights on campus, it will no longer earn your charitable support. Your identity and contribution will, of course, be kept strictly anonymous."
It also is offering to assist schools where officials want to come into alignment with First Amendment principles.
The report cited a comment from an American University student, "Conservatives are slammed on this campus for simply just having opposing views. Disgraceful. A professor of mine nearly got fired for just expressing how he felt about topics but wasn't being offensive."
The foundation promised if the Constitution protects it, it will defend it.
"We defend speech based on principle, not viewpoint, because we don't have an ideological axe to grind."
Before she became known as Donald Trump Jr.'s alleged girlfriend, Palm Beach socialite Bettina Anderson was caught up in an international drug scandal.
Anderson, now 37, was flying on a private plane from the Bahamas back to Florida - but the trip home took a dramatic twist when customs agents found controlled substances in the luggage.
Anderson's brother Harry Loy Anderson, who was piloting the plane, was charged with smuggling psilocybin, also known as magic mushrooms.
The 2015 incident was reported by the Daily Mail, which first reported that Donald Jr. is having an alleged affair with Bettina Anderson.
Donald Jr. is engaged to Kimberly Guilfoyle, who has been, along with Don Jr., a prominent backer of President Trump's political efforts.
Bettina Anderson, 37, is a wealthy socialite from Palm Beach, Florida, where the Trump family has been living since relocating from Trump Tower in New York a few years back.
The little-known socialite and philanthropist reportedly was seen kissing Donald Jr. at a bar recently.
"They were definitely on a date," a witness told the Daily Mail. "They weren't exactly making out, but the kisses were romantic, and you could tell they were intimate with each other."
"Another observer said, "She seemed totally smitten with Don – and he with her."
The Daily Mail subsequently reported that in 2015, Anderson was a passenger on a plane piloted by her brother that was carrying illegal drugs.
Harry Loy Anderson III, now 47, said he had nothing to declare at customs, but agents found magic mushrooms in his bags. He was charged with importing a controlled substance and released on a $250,000 bond.
"When asked about the mushrooms, …. Anderson became very nervous and stated that those were not his; that he did not smoke or drink," a criminal complaint said at the time.
Anderson was facing heavy jail time, but he was spared prison after reaching a plea agreement that called for him to pay a $5,000 fine and surrender his pilot license.
Despite speculation of tensions in their relationship, Donald Jr. was accompanied by Guilfoyle for a trip to the Balkans this week, where he spread his father's message of peace in Ukraine.
Guilfoyle, a former prosecutor from San Francisco, still harbors resentment towards Kamala Harris over a dispute dating from their days as up-and-coming prosecutors in the city. Guilfoyle accuses Harris of blocking her from a job in the San Francisco District Attorney’s Office, where Harris launched her career in politics.
“She pretended to be a member of the hiring committee, which didn’t exist,” Guilfoyle told the New York Times recently.
Guilfoyle went on to marry, then divorce, San Francisco mayor Gavin Newsom, who is now the governor of California.
