    Harris win capture the Republicans who sat out the 2016 election because they refused to vote for Trump or Clinton. She's strong, diplomatic, and has two work histories in her resume that terrifies Trump--prosecutor and attorney general. I like that in a person.

    Harris never claimed to be African American. She is half Black--do not assume that all Black people are African American, just like all Caucasians are not Scottish (which is a shame).

    In one way, you’re correct. She hasn’t stated that she’s African-American and in fact, has said that she’s Asian-American (Indian-American).
    Now, with that in mind, the MSM has touted her as being African-American which she fails to refute or insist that either the press get it right or simply label her as Black or better yet, leave her skin color out of it entirely.

    I for one would probably be short lived in the political world because as an open book, I would insist that the whole truth be told and consistently so.

    I have problems with this article - not the content, rather the grammar.

    "Newsweek has apologized for an op ed that sparked a new wave of false conspiracy theories about Kamala Harris, acknowledging that to make readers the essay “inevitably conveyed the ugly message” that she was “somehow not truly American.”

    "to make readers the essay"?....What does that mean?

    "In an interview later in the day, CNN’s Christiane Amanpour wondering what the point was of spreading “disinformation that is contrary to the U.S. Constitution.”... Huh?

    "On Friday morning, Trump retweeted posts which referred to Harris a “camel laugh,”".... Again, huh?

    This is a short article. This is not Newsweek's writing. It's Microsoft News. I think I'll apply for an editor's job there. My syntax and grammar aren't perfect but I could do way better than this.

    I agree with you Dwight. I use Edge for my primary browser,so Microsoft news is front and center.
    Writing and editing are absolutely horrible. Even I with nothing more than a 45 years old associates could do a better job in my sleep.
    There is not even the attempt to compose actual sentences.
    When that AAV,(Amphibious Assault Vehicle) went down a couple weeks ago, much of the news termed it an amphibious tank. Now just what relationship does this vehicle have with a tank? UH None! It has tracks, it's only common feature. It is a main function is that of a troop carrier, to deliver Marines to the shore. It can also carry light cargo.
    My MOS was 1833 while I served. We operated an earlier version of these. We called them Am-Tracs (Amphibious Tractors at the time Model P-7

    Any way the state of journalism really sucks.

    Yes, and in more ways than one.

    So, the Democrat VP candidate, who will effectively be president if Biden is elected, approves of the riots and does not want them to stop.

    Well, because of the permissiveness of the democratic lawmakers, there will indeed be more riots when D. Trump is elected for his second term.

    That said, normally I would not suggest that anyone have to suffer what is being done by the rioters, but if her home and car were burnt to the ground, it might wipe that derned smirk off of her face.

    If Trump is reelected, I think we'll find that he will end these riots. As it is, he has handlers telling him that he'll lose votes if he goes into a state without being invited.

    Kamala Harris says she's not responsible for her ancestors owning slaves, but the rest of us have to pay reparations. My ancestors were in Sweden.
