Liberals praised Harris, Republicans attacked her as a “radical leftist,” but progressives say the selection underscores the need for sustained grassroots pressure. Subscribe to our page and support our work at https://therealnews.com/donate.

Did someone just say that Harris has the charisma to rally voters? I was with you up to that point. Did you not follow the primaries where Harris failed to attract any support despite having the entire mainstream media serving as cheerleaders?
the content is amazing, except the two journalists are speaking as if biden and harris won the election….its august right now…nobody won anything yet….that part is bad journalism
She is not Black!

THIS IS WHAT THE PROGRESSIVES SHOULD BE DEMANDING.
Legalized weed should NOT be at the top of the progressive agenda. Only sick people would prioritize getting high over having a viable society, avoiding their country fall into fascism (like the US is heading), having normal relations with the rest of the world, or avoiding nuclear holocaust. That's why the first 31 of this list are WAYYYYYYY more important than the last one on legalizing weed.
Who gives a shit. Anything is better than Trump.
This country is like a drug who denies reality. Voting for Biden is just an excuse to put off real change and admit we've hit "rock bottom."
If you have zero American Slaves in your family tree you don't count as the first Black American anything. This appointment is the worst kind of tokenism. Even tactically it doesn't seem to make a lot of sense given how poorly the Harris campaign did in the primaries. Her campaign was a mess and was destroyed with a few words about her actual record. She didn't win a single delegate despite having the mainstream media squarely in her corner. She just isn't a good politician for national office. She doesn't connect with people.
Nothing will fundamentally change
I'm a parent, WE ARE THE ROOTS AND SOURCE OF OUR CHILDRENS ACTIONS! LACK OF TEACHING AND SPARING THE ROD.
We are responsible for training up our children in the Fear of The Almighty Creator , (not the Government). And when they grow older, they want depart from it (& bring you to shame with crime and jail time). TRUE FACTS FROM THE CREATOR!! The problem is training them by what's right in their own eyes, because they don't read or if they do, really give a dam about what the GRAND DESIGNER OF THE BODY thinks. Henceforth they are Greived c/o there children Captivity or Premature Deaths. Most are CHURCH PEOPLE! Their Hypocrisy towards the ALMIGHTY CREATOR is seen through their Seed!
Take this up with YAH ,Okay, It's written in The Scriptures. And HE watches over HIS words to perform it.
Now on the other hand, The Government is at fault with SUPPRESSION, OPPRESSION, DEPRESSION, and many more negative "Sions"! Because the Parents has to work for Pennies outside the homes to provide for them . So they are practically being raised by the government, i.e.
schools, and Gangs for attention and Money due to peer pressure.
I will not be supporting this Democratic Ticket base on the criminal justice records of these two individuals PERIOD!!!!!!!!!
The sound levels are intolerable.
Trump calling someone corrupt is a joke and disrespect to common sense.
I'm not going to buy that car without kicking the tires! Seriously! Mic'20 ADOS South
There is no way Harris could sell us on a demented pedophile.
Not good news!
Harris , is a Horrible person ,She IS NOT LEFT …do me a favour ..she is Any thing But LEFT …
Kamala the chameleon lizard 🦎 she can change her color, race, and changes her views as needed just to get power control! She is to wishy Washy
#NeverBiden
She's another downturn for Biden . Shit Trump will be there for another four years.
: I make it a habit to NEVER support a "Law and Order" candidate or a "business person" for political office.
Check the history.
It hasn't ended well the masses.
We (The Ppl) would be better off if we didn't fall for the propaganda and identity politics th@ persuade you to vote for those crooks.
