Kamala Harris wants to give free healthcare to illegal aliens. She is very generous with other people’s money, as are all socialists. She will give free healthcare to every person who comes into this country illegally, inviting more illegal immigration. She will impoverish our country with the freebies and the illegal immigration. Let’s not forget […] The post Kamala: Free Healthcare to Everyone Who Comes Illegally appeared first on www.independentsentinel.com.

Senator and Vice Presidential nominee JD Vance (R-OH) admitted he was “kind of pissed off” that he would not get the chance to debate current Vice President Kamala Harris after President Joe Biden’s abrupt exit from the 2024 campaign vaulted her to the top of the ticket. Vance made the observation during a Monday rally in his hometown of Middletown, Ohio, some 24 hours after President Joe Biden had announced — in a letter posted to X — that he would “stand down” from the presidential race and would no longer be seeking the Democratic Party’s 2024 nomination.

To do so would be unfair to Gavin Newsom, JB Pritzker, Gretchen Whitmer, or whoever Kamala Harris picks as her running mate,” the campaign said in a statement.

Vice President and Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris is “in talks” to appear at this weekend’s Bitcoin Conference in Nashville, Tennessee, where both former president Donald Trump and candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. are already set to speak. A post on X from Bitcoin Magazine says the presumptive Democratic nominee for the presidency is in talks with Bitcoin conference CEO David Bailey. “They’re making up their minds today,” the post reads. If Harris attends the event, which expects more than 20,000 attendees, it will be the first time that both she and Trump are at the same place since the Vice President took over the nomination from President Joe Biden. Trump has repeatedly signaled that he will be friendly to the crypto industry if he is reelected in November. The former president began accepting campaign donations in crypto currency earlier this year, and has pledged to be the country’s first “crypto president.” Some Bitcoin enthusiasts believe that Trump would create a U.S. strategic reserve of Bitcoin if he retakes office. It was reported earlier on Tuesday that Harris had reached out to billionaire Mark Cuban with “multiple questions” on cryptocurrency as she readies to take on Trump. ” “I’m getting multiple questions from her camp about crypto,” Cuban said. “So I take that as a good sign.” Cuban recently asserted that a number of different Silicon Valley CEO’s are endorsing Trump in the presidential election because of his support of Bitcoin and the cryptocurrency industry. Multiple cryptocurrency companies have prepared over $160 million that they plan to use to support candidates for public office who will support the industry. Experts believe that the money will likely go to support Republican candidates. “Trump’s acceptance and embrace of crypto is in stark contrast with the overwhelmingly regressive approach to crypto taken by the Biden administration and the wider Democratic Party, which has constantly attacked the industry, in most cases unfairly,” Edward Wilson of Nansen, a blockchain company, explained. “It is likely that the issue of crypto will influence and may even swing the election. That’s because many US-based crypto supporters place crypto as a key issue for them and are fed up with the approach of going after good actors in the space.” The news comes as the wider cryptocurrency market has enjoyed both increased political acceptance and drastic growth this year and has seen drastic surge in price not just for Bitcoin, which reached a new all-time high of just under $74,000 after the Security and Exchange Commission approved exchange-traded funds for Bitcoin, but for crypto tokens across the board, ranging from smart-contract tokens like Ethereum to so-called “memecoins” like “Dogwifhat.” Just this week, exchange-traded funds for Ethereum hit the market, bringing more positive news for the industry.

Rep. Anthony Ogles (R-TN) introduced on Tuesday articles of impeachment against Vice President Kamala Harris, who is now running for the presidency after President Joe Biden abruptly ended his re-election campaign and endorsed Harris to be his successor. POLITICO’s Olivia Beavers posted to X screenshots of the resolution accusing Harris of “high crimes and misdemeanors” related to her handling of the migrant crisis as “border czar” and for allegedly misleading the American people about Biden’s physical and cognitive health. It is different from the impeachment articles against Harris that he introduced last year — updated with some recent events pic.twitter.com/Lt9Iq6rUf7 — Olivia Beavers (@Olivia_Beavers) July 23, 2024 “Time and again, Kamala Harris has refused to uphold her oath to the U.S. Constitution, and she must be impeached,” Ogles told The Daily Caller. “Her breathtaking incompetence as Border Czar has allowed a crisis of drugs, rape, and murder to flood the streets of America.” He also said Harris “knowingly breached the public’s trust by failing to invoke the 25th Amendment after it became clear that Joe Biden was mentally and physically unfit to serve as president,” and declared “immediate action must be taken.” Biden, 81, dropped out over the weekend. Allies had been pressuring him to step aside after a fumbling debate performance late last month spurred concerns about his mental acuity and electability. Biden quickly endorsed Harris for the Democratic Party’s presidential nomination. WATCH BEN SHAPIRO’S ‘SCAMALA: KAMALA HARRIS UNMASKED’ ON DAILYWIRE+ Harris has gathered the support of enough delegates to win the nomination, although the process remains open and another challenger could emerge before voting begins. Harris’ campaign boasted a significant fundraising haul in the first 24 hours and she is seeking a running mate. Ogles, who is facing a Republican primary in Tennessee’s 5th Congressional District on August 1 and has been endorsed by former President Donald Trump, previously introduced articles of impeachment against Biden and Harris last year. Punchbowl News senior congressional reporter Melanie Zanona reacted to Ogles’ new resolution by posting to X, “More examples of the (entirely symbolic) efforts by the GOP to pivot their attacks from Biden to Kamala Harris, now that she is the presumptive Dem nominee.” Earlier on Tuesday, third-ranking House Republican, Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY), unveiled a resolution that would have the GOP-led House condemn Harris for her inability as the Biden administration’s “border czar” to quell the migrant crisis if the measure is passed.

More than a dozen sharks living off the coast of Brazil tested positive for cocaine, researchers shared in a report on Tuesday. A total of 13 Brazilian sharpnose sharks were tested by scientists who discovered the cocaine in both the muscle tissue and liver of the sharks, according to researchers from the Oswaldo Cruz Foundation in Brazil, CNN reported. The sharks were chosen both because of their small size and that they live in the coastal waters that are in close proximity to a significant contaminant discharge for their entire life cycle, according to the report. It is the first time the drug has ever been detected in free range sharks, the outlet noted. Sharks off Brazil coast test positive for cocaine https://t.co/bDMDjqqic7 — BBC News (World) (@BBCWorld) July 23, 2024 The study found that the cocaine levels in the 13 sharks had a concentration as much as 100 times higher than previously reported for other aquatic creatures, the study found. And the cocaine concentration in muscle tissue was higher in female sharks than in their male counterparts.  Researchers believe the rise in cocaine consumption around the world is most likely the cause, as around 22% of users of the drug users live in South America, with Brazil the second largest consumer market in the area, the paper found. The report found that the increased consumption and poor sewage treatment infrastructure was the likely cause for the increased cocaine in the sea, rather than it being due to cocaine being dumped by traffickers, as previously suggested, study co-author Enrico Mendes Saggioro, an ecotoxicologist at the foundation, told CNN. “We don’t usually see many bales of coke dumped or lost at sea here, unlike what is reported in Mexico and Florida,” Mendes Saggioro said, noting that the sea gets polluted by cocaine due to illegal laboratories producing the drug and along with the sewage discharges from humans users. It is unclear at this point what kind of damage the cocaine may have done to the shark’s health, as studies have yet to be done. However, previous research on how the drug affects fish and mussels showed that it was harmful. “It is probable, although not yet proven that exposure would have deleterious physiological effects on the sharks,” a joint statement from Mendes Saggioro and study co-author Rachel Ann Hauser Davis from the foundation, read. Marine eco-toxicologist Sara Novais, from the Marine and Environmental Sciences Centre of the Polytechnic University of Leiria, called the findings “very important and potentially worrying,” Science magazine noted.

DAILY CALLER NEWS FOUNDATION—The border crisis could reach new heights or largely remain unchanged if Vice President Kamala Harris ends up winning the presidential election on Nov. 5, border hawks warn. President Joe Biden withdrew from the presidential race Sunday and immediately endorsed Harris, making her the leading contender to snag the party’s delegates and the nomination at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago in August. Harris’ past voting record in the Senate, comments she’s made about federal immigration authorities, and recent actions taken in the White House all signal a sharp pivot left if she were to win the election by defeating former President Donald Trump and his running mate, Sen. JD Vance of Ohio. “I would say more of the same or potentially even worse,” Eric Ruark, research director for NumbersUSA, a group that works toward limiting illegal immigration, said in a conversation with the Daily Caller News Foundation about possible border policy changes if Harris were to replace Biden. “Biden had a history of being at least rhetorically against illegal immigration.” “Harris has yet to come out and say, ‘It’s a crime and we need to enforce the law,’” Ruark said. “Clearly, she was tasked with addressing the border crisis by President Biden, and her approach was basically to say, ‘Don’t come.’ That was the extent of her policy approach.” NumbersUSA publishes “report cards” on every lawmaker in Congress, evaluating how each performs on immigration and other border security issues. During her short time in the Senate representing California before leaving for the White House, Harris earned a grade of F-, the lowest possible score. The then-senator earned failing grades for votes on immigration-related issues such as border security, interior enforcement, refugee management, and amnesty, according to NumbersUSA. NumbersUSA highlighted Harris’ 2019 co-sponsorship of the RAIDER Act, which would have blocked Trump’s construction of the U.S.-Mexico border wall, and her 2019 co-sponsorship of the FACE Act, which would have made it more difficult for Trump to continue to build the wall. The organization also graded her vote against the Secure and Protect Act which, it argues, would have positively reformed the so-called Flores Settlement Agreement. Other border hawks expressed trepidation over Harris’ enforcement record related to illegal immigration through U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. “Kamala Harris wasn’t just Biden’s Border Czar, she was his Abolish ICE Director—directing the agency in charge of enforcing our immigration laws to willfully violate them,” RJ Hauman, president of the National Immigration Center for Enforcement, said. “Now that Biden is out of the picture, she is sure to return to some of the most insane anti-enforcement positions that we’ve ever seen from an elected official.” As illegal border crossings quickly climbed early in the Biden administration’s tenure, the president tapped Kamala to lead an effort to address the root causes of unlawful migration from Central America, a position many described as “border czar.” However, Border Patrol encounters with illegal aliens at the southern border went on to reach recording-setting levels, according to the latest U.S. Customs and Border Protection data. [Both ICE and CBP are part of the Department of Homeland Security.] Enforcement experts have noted that the root causes of illegal immigration remain unaddressed and lawmakers in Congress have sought to hold Harris specifically responsible for the ongoing border crisis. Harris also was heavily criticized for taking so long to visit the southern border. “The choice in November will now be even more clear—mass deportation or mass release of illegal aliens and violent criminals into American communities,” Hauman said. Harris compared ICE, a government agency, to the Ku Klux Klan during a November 2018 Senate confirmation hearing. She asked Ron Vitiello, then Trump’s nominee to lead the agency, if he knew there was a “perception” among Latino immigrants that ICE agents operate like Klan members. As a California senator, Harris also suggested during a June 2018 media interview that ICE essentially should be abolished and rebuilt again “from scratch.” Upon election to the White House, the Biden-Harris administration oversaw a monumental overhaul of Trump policies that beefed up border and interior enforcement. Biden took 89 executive actions that specifically reversed or began the process of reversing Trump’s immigration policies, according to an analysis by the Migration Policy Institute. The White House immediately halted construction of the U.S.-Mexico border wall and shuttered Trump’s “Remain in Mexico” program, which had largely eliminated asylum fraud by keeping asylum-seekers in Mexico while their cases were adjudicated. The administration also attempted to enforce a 100-day moratorium on all deportations. To be successful in his reelection bid, Ruark said, the Republican nominee would need to do more than offer criticisms of Harris and instead put forward a policy platform on how his new administration would hit the ground running on Day One to “undo the damage” the Biden administration did to border security. In his Republican National Convention speech last week, Trump promised the “largest deportation operation” in the country’s history, completed construction of the border wall, and other hardline approaches to border security. One local leader near the southern border noted the incredible burden that Biden’s border crisis has placed on the district he represents. “Under Biden with the open border, we had over 150,000 people dropped in the streets here in San Diego County from a period of about eight or nine months,” San Diego County Supervisor Jim Desmond, a Republican, said Monday. “It put pressure on our law enforcement, put pressure on our hospitals and shelters, and we bore all the burden of these people just freely and willingly able to cross the border,” Desmond said, noting that Biden had assigned Harris to address the crisis. “She has failed us on the border.” Desmond noted that the border crisis isn’t a “red or blue” issue, but something that’s been affecting everyone in his district, particularly those with homes near the border who’ve had to deal with a constant flow of asylum-seekers passing through their property. Since Biden withdrew from the race Sunday and endorsed Harris, a growing number of Democrat leaders have gotten in line behind the vice president’s fledgling candidacy, establishing her as the presumptive nominee before the DNC convenes Aug. 19 in Chicago. “What we’ve seen from her career in the Senate and the public statements she’s made, it would only get worse,” Ruark said of the border situation. “As bad as things are, they can get worse, and that’s something we should all realize.” The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment from the Daily Caller News Foundation.
