Kamala Harris is being recast as a centrist Dem — but the radical truth is plain to see

In 2019, the watchdog site GovTrack rated Kamala Harris “the most liberal” member of the Senate.

She was the senator least likely to sign onto bipartisan legislation.

Look for that write-up now, however, and you find a “page not found.” GovTrack deleted it.

It’s just one example of how Kamala Harris, once a hero of progressives, has been, along with a helpful media, hiding all her far-left positions from voters.

A centrist Democrat has a better chance of winning the election, so a centrist she shall be.

But it doesn’t take much searching to find the real politician, not the Kameleon she presents.

Belief system

Here are some of Harris’ beliefs that most Americans disagree with, and the press is so desperate to hide:

Kameleon: “She would not ban fracking,” Harris’ campaign told Politico. “Trump’s false claims about fracking bans are an obvious attempt to distract from his own plans.”

The Truth: Donald Trump’s claims were not false. During the 2020 presidential campaign, Harris said repeatedly she wanted to ban the gas- and oil-extraction method, which has become an economic lifeblood of Pennsylvania and other states.

“There’s no question I’m in favor of banning fracking,” she said during a CNN discussion.

Not only that: asked if she also was in favor of banning offshore drilling, she said “yes.”

In 2016, Harris, as California attorney general, even sued the Obama administration over fracking approvals off the West Coast.

Kameleon: “Harris’ campaign also confirmed . . . that the vice president no longer supports a single-payer health care system,” wrote CNN.

The Truth: That’s quite the 180 from the candidate in 2020 who was asked if you would be able to keep the health insurance you have under a Harris presidency.

“Let’s eliminate all of that,” she said. “Let’s move on.”

In 2019, she favored a “Medicare for All” plan, and even co-sponsored legislation to that effect with Bernie Sanders while in the Senate.

Kameleon: “We know that our immigration system is broken, and we know what it takes to fix it,” Harris said in Las Vegas this past weekend.

The Truth: Harris has never wanted to fix it before, she wanted to throw the whole thing out. She favored getting rid of ICE, and even said that crossing the border illegally was no crime. “We’re not going to treat people who are undocumented who cross the border as criminals,” she said.

It’s not even fair to call this one a flip-flop, it’s a straight-up lie. Harris’ one clarification on what was “broken” was that we needed an “earned pathway to citizenship” — which will reward the people who came here illegally.

Made the “Border Czar,” Harris did nothing to either strengthen the border or tackle the “root causes” she spoke so much about.

Kameleon: As far back as 2020, Harris’ press secretary brazenly claimed, “Joe Biden and Kamala Harris do not support defunding the police, and it is a lie to suggest otherwise.”

The Truth: Except she absolutely did. In the summer of 2020, Harris said “we have to take a look at these budgets,” suggesting police were overfunded. She “applauded” Eric Garcetti, the mayor of Los Angeles, for defunding the LAPD.

Kameleon: Last week, a Harris spokesperson told the Washington Examiner that Harris “no longer supports a federal job guarantee, an idea championed by some on the Left and Green New Deal proponents.”

The Truth: She not only backed the Green New Deal, she wanted to break the Senate to get it passed. “I am prepared to get rid of the filibuster to pass a Green New Deal,” she once said.

Kameleon: Harris has claimed now she stands shoulder-to-shoulder with Israel.

The Truth: Except when she refuses to attend the prime minister’s address to Congress. Or she criticizes how Israel has responded to Hamas’ terror attacks.

Aaron David Miller, a former Middle East peace negotiator, told The Wall Street Journal: “There is the inner Kamala, of a different generation than Biden whose empathy and sensibilities run deeper than the president’s when it comes to Palestinian suffering. Then there is the outer Kamala, the moderate pro-Israel Democrat who for political reasons when it comes to Israel needs to color between the lines.”

Where’s the Kamala who just stands up for principle?

Yet on so many issues, Kamala Harris is a will-o’-the-wisp, alighting on whatever position suits her best at that time.

Flip-flopper

When she was running against Joe Biden, he was the backward white man who opposed busing to end segregation. When she became his running mate, he had an “unmatched legacy.”

Also this past weekend, Harris suddenly endorsed no taxes on tips — only because it was a policy proposed by Trump.

Harris has changed her position on so many topics, the real question is: Does she stand for anything? Or is her only ambition to say and do whatever it takes to get elected, then let the left wing of the party run the nation?

It’s the question the press won’t ask. No, more than that. It’s a question the media works hard to prevent from being asked.

Usually when pundits refer to a “media bubble,” it suggests that a candidate is only reading and watching what he or she wants to hear and see.

But this is a bubble created for Harris, by some of the biggest press outlets in the nation, protecting her not only from hard questions, but also from the truth: She’s too radical to get elected, and she needs to be carefully hidden, a Kameleon to voters.
