After 40 days of hiding from reporters and press conferences, Kamala Harris has agreed to a pre-taped one-on-one interview with CNN to be edited and aired on Thursday evening heading into a holiday weekend.
Per usual, Kamala Harris’ campaign changed the terms in the hours leading up to the interview. What was supposed to be a one-on-one interview has now been demanded to be a joint interview with her VP Nominee, Tim Walz, to do damage control.
Enough is enough. It is time for the mainstream media to stop agreeing to Kamala Harris and her handler’s terms. Kamala Harris is running to be the President of the greatest country in the world yet will not do a single live interview to defend her record. She is not willing to take the hard questions and is therefore not ready to stand up to China, Russia, and North Korea. She is not a serious candidate.
She can run, but she can’t hide from her record of failures. Here are the questions CNN must ask Kamala Harris:
Border:
1. This week, you pledged support for hundreds of millions of dollars to President Trump's border wall if elected. You shocked many with this significant flip-flop from your previous statements, calling the border wall 'un-American' and 'stupid.' Is this backtrack 68 days out from Election Day an admission of guilt or political pandering when poll after poll is telling you the American people do not trust your track record at the border?
2. A recent report uncovered that your administration has caught at least 99 known or suspected terrorists only to release them back into communities nationwide as we speak. Do you have any remorse or regrets about releasing terrorists into our country? Why did your administration decide to release terrorists back on the streets?
3. The Homeland Security Inspector General report revealed that over 320,000 migrant children are missing across America today. The report goes on to say these children are at high risk for trafficking, exploitation, or forced labor- Where are these children?
4. We have no record of you going down to the border; we're not talking about adjacent refuel stops in El Paso, a 20-minute drive away from the border; we're talking about the border where Mexico and the United States meet and seeing the consequences of the open border for yourself and talking to those Border Patrol agents, as President Trump did this past week. How can any American trust that you will address a problem you have spent your entire Vice Presidency creating and a problem you won't even see with your own eyes?
5. Have you ever called Rachel Morin, Jocelyn Nungaray, or Laken Riley's family to offer condolences after violent criminals you let in at our borders murdered their family members?
Economy:
6. Your administration was caught lying about the number of jobs created. Nearly 1 million jobs disappeared as the Bureau of Labor Statistics constantly revises its count of jobs down. How can people trust the economic reports that are coming out of your White House?
7. Under the Biden-Harris Administration, home prices have skyrocketed by 39 percent, making the American dream of owning a home impossible for many Americans. Experts say your plan will lead to more inflation and increase the price of homes even more. Can you explain how your plan would lower housing prices and why you haven't done anything to lower prices during the last four years?
8. When you ran for President in 2020, you said, "There's no question I'm in favor of banning fracking." Do you still support a radical ban on fracking?
9. You have previously said, "Bidenomics is working." But the data tells a different story. Since you took office, the cost of living has drastically increased. For instance, the price of groceries has increased by 22 percent, and the cost of gas has risen by 22 percent. Are you still proud of Bidenomics?
10. You recently proposed Soviet-style price controls on food. After much criticism of the plan by experts and the media, you walked back the plan as only for emergencies. The American people deserve to know where you stand on socialist economic policies. Do you support Soviet-style price controls and why do you continue to flip-flop on so many issues of this magnitude?
Foreign Policy:
11. This week, you were notably absent from any memorials or events honoring the 13 servicemen who were killed in your administration's disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan. Why didn't you attend a public event honoring these brave men and women or meet with their Gold Star families?
12. You previously bragged that you were the last person in the room with President Biden before the decision was made to exit Afghanistan. Do you have any regrets over the most disastrous military exit since Vietnam that resulted in the deaths of Americans and our military equipment falling into the hands of terrorists?
Crime:
13. Violent crime is up in major cities across the country, you have previously praised defunding the police, removing cops from schools, cashless bail, and helped raise money to bail out violent rioters and murderers in 2020. Why should Americans trust you to keep their families safe?
Public Trust:
14. Since you've nominated yourself for President, you have been notably absent from the press and media interviews; in fact, this is your first and only interview in nearly a month. Many people are saying that if you're unable to stand up for your agenda in the press, you will not stand up for your priorities to adversarial nations like Russia, China, and North Korea. Why has your campaign put a moratorium on televised interviews, and will you commit to doing more solo live TV media appearances?
15. You are running a campaign pushing 'change.' The irony has not been lost on the American people, though, that you are the incumbent Vice President. You have bragged about being the last person in the room with President Biden when making tough decisions. You have had the power to make the change you are now campaigning on, and you haven't. Why should Americans believe you now?
16. Since you brought your VP Nominee to what was supposed to be a one-on-one interview, we should ask, it has been revealed that Tim Walz repeatedly lied about his military service–including his rank and that he carried weapons in "war." He even went as far as to say he served during Operation Enduring Freedom- he has, in fact, never done so. Do you think lying about military service is insulting to the Gold Star families whose sons and fathers did serve in that mission? Do you have any regrets for choosing lying Tim Walz as your running mate?
