KAMALA HARRIS

This is a great piece with the "MAGA" supporting grandmother who has seen the light.

Some of you who are interested in MAGA, the insurrection and "Trumpism" may like to see it.

Well worth a watch. She also exposes the really far right - white supremacists etc

I saw a nice piece about Kamala Harris from 2014 this morning but am struggling to find it now!

Maybe you've seen that too Wyllow3?

I spotted a few old ones on U tube but not had the time to watch.

I saw this whilst reading.

Horrifying, innt?

I saw this as well.

Brilliant!

Wow this thread has really evolved - from people saying "I don't know anything about Kamala Harris" all the way to the TV debate wipe-out, in just a couple of months!!!
For those of us who want sanity and moderation to prevail, it's dispiriting to observe how often a presidential candidate - Hillary Clinton for one - wins the popular vote but still loses.
There are 7 "swing states" on which everything depends. Unfair but there you go, no democratic system is perfect.
Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, North Carolina, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Michigan.
Harris is now leading by up to 3 percentage points in five of them, one is tied (Arizona) and Trump is only leading in one (Georgia).
Personally I find this very exciting and I suspect neither I nor my husband are going to get any sleep from about 5-7th November as we watch results coming in....

Living in hope, sarahcyn.

But this confuses me - can you or anyone shed any light? Shutting the government down?

It seems that if the budget is not approved, bills can not be paid beyond a certain set date in October - no military/government paye - full stop?

Does not make (2.5% of working population) government workers happy.

One wonders what political games are going on!

"Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky doesn’t want a political battle, saying his party would likely be blamed if Congress allows the government to shut down shortly before the election.

“I’m for whatever avoids a government shutdown,” he told reporters on Tuesday."
