Daily Wire editor emeritus Ben Shapiro reviewed Vice President Kamala Harris’ interview on Fox News after it aired on Wednesday evening, calling it a “full-scale disaster area” for her campaign for president. Harris sat for an interview with Fox News host Bret Baier on Wednesday. The roughly 25-minute sit-down was arguably her toughest interview yet in a campaign that has been light on opportunities for direct media scrutiny. “Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow. I thought it was not going to be great. I did not think it was going to be that not great,” Shapiro said. “So listen, Kamala Harris has been avoiding difficult interviews this entire election cycle. The most difficult interview she did was with Bill Whitaker, and ‘60 Minutes’ chopped it up to make her look better. That did not happen with Bret Baier and it was a full-scale disaster area for her,” he continued. The Daily Wire host then went through some of Harris’ worst moments, beginning with the first issue of the interview: immigration. Baier questioned Harris on the Biden administration’s decision to repeal dozens of executive orders on border policy implemented under the previous Trump administration and the impact that decision had on the unprecedented wave of illegal immigration that has taken place in the past four years. “She immediately swiveled. She will not answer the question,” Shapiro said. “She won’t just say, listen, we blew it at the beginning. We reversed Donald Trump’s executive orders. We got it right now. We understand the problem. … But she can’t do that because she also wants to say that she owns it, that she was involved in every decision.” MATT WALSH’S ‘AM I RACIST?’ COMING TO DAILYWIRE+ OCT. 28 Harris struggled to field questions on her pitch to “turn the page” on her term as vice president, rationalize why nearly 80% of Americans believe the country is on the “wrong track,” her past support of taxpayer-funded sex change surgeries for illegal immigrants and inmates, her defense of President Joe Biden’s mental acuity, and other topics. Throughout the interview, she overwhelmingly preferred to redirect to former president Donald Trump than to answer questions about her record in the Biden administration. “Man, she looked bad,” Shapiro said. “She looked absolutely awful. She looked contentious. She looked angry at Bret Baier for having the temerity to ask her any sort of serious question. She’s got to be super ticked at her team for suggesting that she do Bret Baier in the first place. She’s unwilling or unable to answer any question about policy at all in this election cycle.” “The only thing she’s got at all in this election cycle, the only thing she’s got and everybody knows it is” talking about Trump, he continued. “But here is the problem: the minute you dig below the surface, what you realize is that she is an empty vessel for the entire Biden administration agenda. And she’s not particularly smart. She doesn’t know her own policies well enough to make cogent and interesting distinctions about how her policies work. She doesn’t understand how to defend the policies that she has herself put into place.” My instant reaction to Kamala Harris' interview with Bret Baier. Let's just say it didn't go well. As in, the Hindenburg levels of not well. pic.twitter.com/HuLFkLv9rS — Ben Shapiro (@benshapiro) October 16, 2024

A 15-year-old girl who had pleaded guilty for her part in the brutal beating death of a disabled elderly man testified that she and her friends killed him because they were bored.Five girls were arrested for allegedly beating 64-year-old Reggie Brown and leaving him to die in an alleyway in Washington, D.C., on Oct. 17, 2023. 'They then stomped on his head and one recorded the beating on her cellphone.' Detective Harry Singleton said that the fight was initiated by a man in his 20s, who attacked Brown before the girls came up and asked if they could beat the man as well. They then stomped on his head and one recorded the beating on her cellphone. That video was played in court at trial against the girls. “Damn, you leakin’!” said one girl in the recording to the bleeding victim. One 12-year-old and two 13-year-old females were arrested in March over the incident, and two other girls were arrested in July, a 14-year-old and a 15-year-old. All were charged with second-degree murder. The oldest suspect pleaded guilty to the lower charge of assault with a dangerous weapon in exchange for cooperating with the investigation and accepting a sentence of three years in a juvenile detention facility. In her testimony, the 15-year-old said she had suggested to the group that they look for someone to beat up because they were bored. She said that Brown's pants were pulled off during the beating, and police said he was beaten with his own belt. She also testified that she realized the man had died when they walked away from the scene of the crime. A medical examiner determined that Brown had died from blunt force trauma to the head that caused brain bleeding. If convicted, the two girls at trial could face a maximum sentence of detainment at a juvenile facility until they turn 18 years old, according to D.C. law. The trial judge announced that a second girl of the remaining two arrested had also pleaded guilty, but no other details were released. One of Brown's relatives previously demanded justice for the man. "My uncle really didn’t deserve this. He was known in this community for years so for this to happen where he lived for 64 [years] is insane. They have to be held accountable!” said his niece. Video from the case can be viewed on a news report from WRC-TV on YouTube. Like Blaze News? Bypass the censors, sign up for our newsletters, and get stories like this direct to your inbox.
