7 Lies Kamala Harris Packed Into 22-Minute Harrisburg Rally

Incredibly, Kamala Harris’ pantsuit did not burst into flames Wednesday in a 22-minute rally in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, despite her tired old speech filled with lies.

No doubt some of her supporters spent more time finding decent parking than listening to their candidate speak.

Harris became flustered, then disturbingly stern, during her short remarks when she was interrupted by pro-Palestinian protesters. She responded by shouting angrily.

“We are six days away from an election, and ours is about a fight for democracy and your right to be heard,” Harris shouted as security escorted the protesters out. “That is what is on the line in this election. Look, everybody has a right to be heard, but right now I am speaking.”

You can probably count on one hand the number of politicians who have found success while shouting angrily at the crowd gathered to see them speak. There have been a few who have employed that technique, but it is terribly uncommon.

A lot of politicians find they connect more with their audience through humor and authentic speeches.

During her speech, Harris averaged a lie every 3 minutes. The media did not call her out on any of them. Here are a few fibs she needs her followers to believe.    

Lie 1: Trump is unstable.

Trump can make it through an ad-libbed speech lasting over an hour, as he shows at every campaign rally. He recently had a fully lucid, no-holds barred, three-hour conversation on the Joe Rogan podcast. He spontaneously takes questions from just about anyone and can think on his feet. Harris has handlers, teleprompters, and needs pre-determined questions to go before an audience. She still says President Joe Biden is stable and thinking clearly. Maybe she is not the best judge of stability.  

Lie 2: Trump is obsessed with revenge, consumed with grievance, and out for unchecked power.

Harris used the same line, verbatim, Tuesday in a Washington, D.C. speech and again in Harrisburg. But nothing in Trump’s previous presidential term suggests his goal is unchecked power. He doesn’t talk about revenge on the campaign trail. And after the Department of Justice, led by Biden, attacked Trump with bogus lawfare and threatened to jail him, Trump has said he would consider giving the president’s son Hunter Biden a pardon.  

Lie 3: She will listen to the people who disagree with her and give them a seat at the table

Well, not pro-Palestinian hecklers at her rally. They will be thrown out. But also, not pro-life activists. The Biden Harris administration has put numerous pro-life sidewalk counselors who urge women walking into abortion businesses not to kill their baby. That used to be called freedom of speech. But Harris has had a hand in putting peaceful grandmothers and grandfathers in federal prison for years, where they will remain if she is elected. Trump has said he would pardon prisoners of the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act.

Lie 4: Trump would ban abortion nationwide.

Trump has never said this. When asked about abortion, Trump has said that his role was through appointments he made on the Supreme Court. When the Dobbs decision overturned Roe v. Wade, abortion became a state issue, and Trump has leaned on that as his answer. The issue is in the states’ hands now, and local voters have more control over it through their voting choices for state legislators. Trump has said he believes most people want to see some exceptions carved out.   

Lie 5: Trump would restrict access to birth control, put IVF treatment at risk, and force states to monitor women’s pregnancies.

Where does Harris come up with this stuff? Monitor pregnancies? No. Trump has never spoken about wanting that or restricting access to birth control. These are weird things to say. Birth control is readily available at any doctor’s office and most drug stores. These issues have not been in the national conversation, other than through this bogus scare tactic Harris spouts in her speeches and advertising. It is meant for voters who are not paying close attention to politics.

Trump has spoken in full throated support of IVF, to the disappointment of some pro-lifers. IVF involves creating multiple embryos but not using them all.  

Lie 6: Trump wants to implement Project 2025

Just because Harris plagiarizes material during her workday, it doesn’t mean Trump does.

The Heritage Foundation authored Project 2025 in 2023. It is not Trump’s work. He is not copying it. Trump has planned his own agenda for the country.

Lie 7: Trump will try to get rid of the Affordable Care Act, which would throw millions of Americans off of their health care.

Nope. It is the opposite. Trump has said he would keep the Affordable Care Act unless lawmakers can come up with something better for Americans. Trump has said he is behind the $35 insulin cap that Biden and now Harris take credit for. The truth is the cost measure started under Trump and improved under Biden.

It is exhausting to stay on top of the many lies Harris speaks. Instead of offering creative solutions to real problems America faces, she is obsessed with talking about Trump.

If she cannot come up with original material, offer meaningful, in-depth policy ideas, or speak with candor, the only thing to learn from a Harris speech is that, even as the media fails to report it, lies are her constant calling card.
