KAMALA’S PARENTS: I posted her birth certificate in a previous post entitled “Trump vs. Media.” I’m very puzzled about a few things, starting with the fact that it was “1 of 2” and “Amended” but it doesn’t say what got changed or when.

The other two oddities are the listings under “color or race” for her parents. Her father, Donald Harris, is listed as “Jamaican”, which is neither a color nor a race, while her mother, Shyamala Harris, is listed as “Caucasian”, which is at least a race, but why, given that she is darker than many American blacks?

I haven’t seen any answer for how “Jamaican” made it on to her birth certificate. But I did find an article that addresses the “Caucasian.” See “Racial classification of Indian Americans” at Wikipedia (link below). It’s an interesting read.

MIDDLE EAST: In July, Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh and his top military leader, Mohammed Deif, were both assisted into the afterlife by the Israeli military. The world is a better place without them.

Haniyeh has been leading Hamas’ terror attacks for years. He and Deif are believed to be the masterminds behind the Oct. 7 attack on Israel that triggered the Gaza war.

SHE WHO LOVES YELLOW SCHOOL BUSSES: Two years ago, Harris and EPA administrator Michael Regan proudly announced a $1 billion giveaway (as part of a total of $5 billion for the EPA as part of the 2021 infrastructure bill) to 389 school districts for 2,463 electric buses. Today, according to the Washington Free Beacon, that money has purchased a total of 60 electric buses in 27 school districts.

A 66-passenger electric school bus costs from $320,000 to $440,000, while the diesel versions cost about $140,000 – $160,000. One billion divided by 60 = $16,666,666.67. Sixteen and a half million dollars for buses that retail for less than half a million. But yeah, sure. Let’s put HER in charge. What could possibly go wrong?

HARRIS: This story is from November 5, 2019. It was written by Terry McAteer, a Democrat and former Harris supporter, whose son had served a month-long internship in then California Attorney General Kamala Harris’ office. McAteer wrote, “I believe … how she treats her staff is as important as an individual’s legislative accomplishments. A person’s character is probably one of the most important attributes for someone wanting to obtain the office of President.”

Four things his son told him about Harris:

1. Senator Harris vocally throws around ‘F-bombs’ and other profanity constantly in her berating of staff and others. The staff is in complete fear of her and she uses her profanity throughout the day.
2. As Attorney General, Senator Harris instructed her entire staff to stand every morning as she entered the office and say, ‘Good Morning General.’
3. Never once during the month-long internship did Harris introduce herself to our son (as he was only in an office with 20 paid employees) and staff was too intimidated by her to introduce him. The only acknowledgment was a form letter of ‘thanks‘ signed by Harris given to him on his last day of service.
4. Gregory was also given instructions to never address Harris nor look her in the eye as that privilege was only allowed to senior staff members.

ANTI-CHRISTIAN PERSECUTION: On June 1, members of a Hindu extremist group attacked 50 Christians worshiping in their pastor’s home in central India. The gang forcefully dragged worshipers, including women and children, out of the house, then threatened to kill the pastor if he ever led services in that village again. When he tried to protect the women and children, they drove him away, pelting him with rocks that caused serious injuries. When he tried to report the attack to the police, they ridiculed and ignored him and his injuries.

Between July 14 and 15, a Roman Catholic Church in Paris was vandalized. Notre-Dame-du-Travail (“Our Lady of Labor”) was spray painted with slogans like infidels needing to pray to Allah, the Catholic Church is of Satan, and that heads of Christians will be cut off. The vandals also entered the building through an emergency exit door, broke cabinet doors, burned papers, and cut the throat of a Mary statue with a knife.

NATIONAL DEBT: So, yeah, we passed $35 trillion. Let’s enter the Way Back Machine and hear Barack Obama on July 3, 2008 condemn Bush for allowing the national debt to rise to $9 trillion dollars:

“The problem is, is that the way Bush has done it over the last eight years is to take out a credit card from the Bank of China in the name of our children, driving up our national debt from $5 trillion for the first 42 presidents – #43 added $4 trillion by his lonesome, so that we now have over $9 trillion of debt that we are going to have to pay back — $30,000 for every man, woman and child. That’s irresponsible. It’s unpatriotic.”

FACT CHECK: During the 16 years since Obama took office, the national debt has grown by $26 trillion. For 12 of the 16 years, POTUS has been a Democrat.

OLYMPICS: In response to backlash over their blasphemous Last Supper parody, the Paris Olympics has claimed the similarity to Da Vinci’s famous depiction of the Last Supper was “unintentional” (my aunt fanny) and issued this non-apology: “If people have taken any offense, we are really sorry.”

IOW, they’re sorry we got our panties in a bunch, which is very far from saying they’re sorry they ridiculed our most sacred beliefs. Schmucks.

In more schmuck-filled news, Pope Francis had nothing to say about the blasphemy, and one of his top guys praised it, as did FLAUXTUS Jill.

CATHOLIC: I did not know there were any private revelations of St. Joseph, much less approved ones. This one is both. – On June 7, 1660, it was extremely hot in Cotignac, France. A humble shepherd named Gaspard Ricard was parched with thirst. His flask of water was dry and he was nowhere near a stream or body of water.

An older man suddenly appeared to him and said, “I am Joseph.” Gesturing to a large boulder, he said, “Lift it and you will drink.” Ricard knew the rock was too large for one man to life, yet somehow, when he tried, he was able to lift the boulder with ease. Underneath it was a spring of fresh water. Overjoyed, Ricard looked up to thank the mysterious stranger, but he had already vanished.

Ricard rushed to the village to tell everyone about the miraculous spring. Soon enough the spring became associated with countless miracles, both physical and spiritual, and a shrine was built at the location. The spring of St. Joseph in Cotignac has been a pilgrimage site ever since.

GRAMMY NOTES: Some bee learning for my fellow PoliNators – The honey bees that we know and love are not native to the United States. Up until the 1600s, there were no bees here that produced honey. That changed, though, when European settlers arrived on the east coast bringing bee colonies with them. It would take over 200 years for bees to travel across the country and reach the west coast.

Bees play such an important role in pollination that some farmers rent hives to help increase the yield of their crop. Sixteen states have named them State Insect: Arkansas, Georgia, Kansas, Louisiana, Maine, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, New Jersey, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, Vermont, and Wisconsin. Because they are raised in order to make honey and pollinate crops, bees can be thought of as an agricultural animal, just like sheep and cows.

LIBRARIES: Even libraries with immense collections on shelves that literally go for miles do not contain every book ever published. Managing a particular library’s collection is a question of balancing resources (space, money) to best meet the needs of the people who use it. Librarians routinely retire and sell off old books that haven’t circulated in years, while picking and choosing which of the gajillion new ones they will buy. If the people who fund a library and/or are parenting minors who use a library have objections to something the librarian has chosen to purchase, they have an absolute right to be taken seriously, not condemned.

MEDIA: [7:58] – Fox News reports they got hold of a list of talking points that the Dems sent out to their lapdogs. They show the list and then air clips from Lamestreamers loyally repeating all the lies.

GRAMMY NOTES: I need prayer. My pneumonia is back. It’s fungal. Who knew there was such a thing as fungal pneumonia?! It’s more scary this time, because I have been swallowing 5 different medications regularly to try to get on top of the fungus, which is in my bloodstream and goes where it will. This is in addition to two medicated creams, a medicated powder, plus every essential oil I can throw at this stuff! I also have a fresh outbreak in the gum above the root of my #3 tooth for which my doc has added yet another medication for swishing. He wants it preceded by an application of hydrogen peroxide. He also gave me a Rx for an Albuterol inhaler; I think the essential oils and Bryonia homeopathic work better, but it’s reassuring to have it for when I’ve done everything else and still can’t stop coughing or get a good breath. We talked about what happens if I am really in trouble and go to the ER. I hope it doesn’t come to that. I hate hospitals.

I’m glad my father isn’t alive to witness this. He loved sports and held true athletes in high esteem. Sadly, it got much, much worse.

At the opening ceremony, drag queens and dancers mockingly parodied the Last Supper.

And lest we forget that they are into child molestation, there was a kid in the cast.

During the performance, a massive serving tray on the stage opened to reveal a blue-skinned man sitting in a pile of food. The Olympic Committee claimed it was an “interpretation of the Greek God Dionysus” to somehow make “us aware of the absurdity of violence between human beings.”

Wikipedia says Dionysus was the ancient Greek god of wine-making, orchards and fruit, vegetation, fertility, festivity, insanity, ritual madness, religious ecstasy, and theater.

Thomas Jolly, the queer artistic director behind the Olympics opening and closing ceremony said he wanted “everyone to feel represented.”

Reality Check: He failed.

“It’s hard to offend me. The best way to offend me is to degrade my religion, especially the most sacred and important part of it.” – Mary Chastain

“There are 2.4 billion Christians on earth and apparently the Olympics wanted to declare loudly to all of them, right out of the gate NOT WELCOME.” – Clint Russel

“This was extremely disrespectful to Christians.” – Elon Musk

“Even as a Jew, I am infuriated by this outrageous insult to Jesus and Christianity… How do you feel about it as Christians?” – Dr. Eli David

“I’m not even Christian and this is so unbelievably offensive to me.” – Nioh Berg

GovTracker, a group that tracks the partisan leaning of members of Congress, has deleted their data from 2019 listing Kamala Harris as the farthest-left Senator.

Touting itself as the “government transparency website,” GovTracker scored Harris as the “most liberal compared to all senators” in 2019, outranking even Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren. 

The link to that page now goes to “Page Not Found.”

Some have posted on X that the page was still up on July 22, the day after Biden stepped down and endorsed Harris. The archived page says it was gone by July 23, the day Harris announced she had secured enough delegates to lock up the nomination at the DNC next month.

Since the archived version isn’t guaranteed to stay up either, I’m reproducing it below. Cuz, you know, transparency. IMO, the most significant bits below are:

1. “Ranked most liberal compared to All Senators” – i.e., far left of the American people.
2. “Joined bipartisan bills the least often compared to Senate Democrats” – i.e., uninterested in working with Republicans.
3. “Held the fewest committee positions compared to Senate Sophomores (tied with 1 other)” – i.e., neither liked nor respected by her peers.
4. “Was 3rd most absent in votes compared to All Senators” … she missed 61.9% of votes (265 of 428 votes) in 2019 – i.e., lazy.

These year-end statistics cover Harris’s record during the 2019 legislative year (Jan 3, 2019-Dec 31, 2019) and compare her to other senators serving at the end of that period. Last updated on Jan 18, 2020.

A higher or lower number below doesn’t necessarily make this legislator any better or worse, or more or less effective, than other Members of Congress. We present these statistics for you to understand the quantitative aspects of Harris’s legislative career and make your own judgements based on what activities you think are important.

Keep in mind that there are many important aspects of being a legislator besides what can be measured, such as constituent services and performing oversight of the executive branch, which aren’t reflected here.

Ranked most liberal compared to All Senators

Our unique ideology analysis assigns a score to Members of Congress according to their legislative behavior by how similar the pattern of bills and resolutions they cosponsor are to other Members of Congress.

For more, see our methodology. Note that because on this page only legislative activity in 2019 is considered, the ideology score here may differ from Harris’s score elsewhere on GovTrack.

Joined bipartisan bills the least often compared to Senate Democrats

Of the 471 bills that Harris cosponsored, 15% were introduced by a legislator who was not a Democrat. View Cosponsored Bills »

Only Democratic and Republican Members of Congress who cosponsored more than 10 bills and resolutions are included in this statistic.

Got bicameral support on the most bills compared to Senate Sophomores

The House and Senate often work on the same issue simultaneously by introducing companion bills in each chamber. 20 of Harris’s bills and resolutions had a companion bill in the House. Working with a sponsor in the other chamber makes a bill more likely to be passed by both the House and Senate.

Those bills were: S. 129: Saint Francis Dam Disaster National …; S. 280: A bill to reauthorize the …; S. 385: Fairness for Farm Workers Act; S. 488: Justice for Victims of Lynching …; S. 728: A bill to direct the …; S. 1106: Rent Relief Act of 2019; S. 1109: San Gabriel Mountains Foothills and …; S. 1111: Central Coast Heritage Protection Act; S. 1377: EQUAL Defense Act of 2019; S. 1600: Maternal Care Access and Reducing …; S. 1730: Living Shorelines Act of 2019; S. 1926: PrEP Access and Coverage Act; S. 2111: SHIELD Act of 2019; S. 2112: Domestic Workers Bill of Rights …; S. 2221: DONE Act; S. 2225: BASIC Act; S. 2227: MORE Act of 2019; S. 2466: Water Justice Act; S. 2500: Mental Health Professionals Workforce Shortage …; S.Res. 316: A resolution supporting the clean …

Got their bills out of committee the 2nd least often compared to Senate Sophomores (tied with 2 others)

Those bills were: S. 129: Saint Francis Dam Disaster National …;

[Added by CtH: S. 120: “Provisions of this bill were incorporated into other bills which were enacted, so there will not likely be further activity on this bill.”

Compare to all Senate Sophomores (10th percentile); Senate Democrats (4th percentile); All Senators (11th percentile).

Cosponsors who caucused with neither the Democratic nor Republican party do not count toward this statistic.
