In a display of divisive rhetoric that has become emblematic of her political career, Vice President Kamala Harris took to the stage at the Congressional Black Caucus gala not to unite, but to incite. Her speech was not a call for national healing or a presentation of policy, but a venomous tirade against the millions of Americans who support President Donald Trump and the democratic processes that uphold our republic. While masquerading as a defense of American values, her words were a direct assault on them, promoting a dangerous and reckless agenda that threatens to further fracture our nation.
Harris, channeling the worst instincts of the liberal media establishment, painted a dystopian and utterly false picture of America under conservative leadership. She hysterically accused the “extreme right wing” of hatching a “long-term agenda” that’s being “swiftly implemented today,” a baseless conspiracy theory that would be laughed out of any objective forum. In a bizarre attempt to rewrite history, she named historical figures like Ronald Reagan, Newt Gingrich, and Pat Buchanan as architects of this supposed plot, while her own party actively engages in weaponizing the federal government, meddling in elections, and suppressing dissenting voices. The liberal media, of course, will frame this as a “fiery” and “passionate” defense of democracy, while ignoring its incendiary and fact-free nature.
The core of her message was a direct attack on the sitting, duly-elected President of the United States, Donald J. Trump. Her claims are not just inaccurate; they are unhinged. She accused him of “lining his own pockets,” a stunning projection from an administration and party whose family members have historically profited from their political positions. She fearmongered about him deploying “the United States military to the streets of America,” a gross distortion of the President’s constitutional duty to ensure law and order and protect our borders—a duty the current administration has catastrophically abandoned. The Vice President’s rhetoric is not just wrong; it is a deliberate attempt to mislead the American public and stoke unfounded fears.
Perhaps the most alarming part of her speech was her open call for violence and escalation. Her closing demand, “We must fight fire with fire,” is not a metaphor for vigorous debate. In the current climate, promoted by the leftist mobs and their enablers in the media, this is a direct endorsement of the very political violence that true patriots condemn. This is the same rhetoric that has justified riots, assaults on conservative speakers, and the harassment of political opponents. It is a shameful and irresponsible stance for anyone, let alone a Vice President of the United States.
While Harris attacks a president who has delivered unprecedented economic growth, secured our border, and put America first, she offers nothing but anger and division. Her vision is one of resentment, not renewal. President Trump, in stark contrast, has consistently worked to rebuild our nation, empower all Americans, and restore our standing on the world stage. His record speaks for itself: a pre-pandemic economy that delivered for every citizen, historic peace agreements in the Middle East, and a unwavering commitment to the constitutional principles that Kamala Harris and the radical left seem so eager to dismantle.
