DISPATCHES FROM KAMALA'S KOLKHOZ.

The ditzy valley girl is still rabbiting on about cracking down on (nonexistent) price gouging.
Like any other purveyor of a lie, big or otherwise, Team Harris is betting on repetition adding veracity.
On Monday, Kamala campaign surrogate Kelly Hyman, an attorney and media commentator, appeared on Fox News with Sandra Smith. The interview turned into a complete disaster as Hyman fumbled, stumbled, and outright dodged a simple question: What is Kamala Harris’s plan to lower prices?

“What is Harris's plan?” Smith asked. After some awkward silence, Smith followed up by saying “We're waiting.”

And just like the candidate she was advocating for, Hyman offered a word salad of vague phrases and unconvincing stammering.

“Yeah. Okay. Excuse if there’s — there's a lot of aspects to it in, in regards to looking at it online.”

Looking at it online? Did she have Kamala’s platform on her computer screen as a cheat sheet?

“So let's talk about lowering the grocery cost because that's something that's brought, brought up. You the viewers can look at this online. She talks about certain things in regards to advancing the first federal ban on price gouging on food and groceries, to set clear rules to the road to make clear that big corporations can't unfairly exploit consumers as well.”

“Is that happening?” Smith asked. “Is that currently happening?

“It's not at this moment. No. This is her plan that's laid out for the first 100 days when she becomes president of the United States of America.”

It sounds like she didn’t understand the intent of the question, so Smith clarified: “Price gouging, is that currently happening?”

This should have been an easy yes-or-no question, but Hyman’s response? A waffling, awkward train wreck. “In regards to the — I don't know exactly if that's currently happening or not because I'm not privity [sic] to that type of information.”
Like the Oakland that the subordinate ditz's ditzy boss claims to hail from, there's no there there.

The plan itself is brief (see above) and points 2 and 3 might be better addressed by the government going away.  Get rid of zoning codes and those independent grocers and their emergent supply chains might take care of themselves.  But I digress.

Steve Cortes watched the full interview, with editorial comment, should you require further elaboration.
Funnily, for people who live by the fact-check, Kelly Hyman doesn't like ... being fact-checked in real time.  "Kamala surrogate: 'I’m not! Honestly that’s not true. Please. I’m constantly being interrupted by you. Which as a woman - I think is disrespectful.'"

Tango Sierra.  The Democrats have their court intellectuals in the universities deconstructing bourgeois norms.  These are the rules you made.  Reap what you sow.  It gives Twitchy's Brett T. a mirthful moment.  "Play the poor woman card with another woman … weak."  Unfortunately, this is what we have to look forward to.  "It'll be even more painful to live through if Harris somehow wins the election."
