The Biden administration retaliated against the Border agents for telling the truth about the administration’s failure to implement DNA testing. Because of this failure to do the right thing, the U.S. is now the number one destination for child trafficking. This is terrible. And they went after the moral, courageous agents.

CNN’s Van Jones proved on Monday that he was all in for Vice President Kamala Harris now that she’s ascended to the top of the 2024 Democratic presidential ticket — but he made the mistake of asking an open-ended question in his glowing X post about her, and did he ever get answers. The exchange began with a post from Adam Cohen, who shared a New York Times/Siena College Poll that showed Kamala Harris pulling ahead of former President Donald Trump in three key states: Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.

Most focused on the fact that after Biden’s exit, despite never winning a single primary vote on her own, Harris had essentially been gifted the nomination and the entire campaign apparatus. Others noted that her VP choice, Governor Tim Walz (D-MN) was also electrifying the military community — and not in a good way. “Answer questions, speak without a prompter, contain her laughter in inappropriate moments, secure the border, win a primary…shall I go on?” OutKick host Toni Lahren posted.
