Kamala Harris is in her first days as the presumptive Democrat nominee for president, and already her media enablers are furious anyone would call her a "DEI hire" (racist slur!) or the "border czar" assigned to reduce illegal immigration (as the media reported in 2021). What was accurate is now deemed inaccurate.

President Biden himself hailed Harris as his DEI pick. In a speech President Biden made to an NAACP event, he proclaimed: “The values of diversity, equity and inclusion are the core strength of America. That’s why I’m proud to have the most diverse administration in history to tap into the full talents of our country. And it starts at the top with the Vice President.” They presume Republicans are saying Kamala's unqualified. Republicans are saying qualifications weren't the primary consideration.

In the last day or two, Kamala’s Messaging Police also battled the facts and claimed that she was never appointed to a position called "Border Czar." Never mind that the "mainstream media" called her that and underlined that Biden appointed her to "stem the tide" of illegal immigration. She failed, so now they're trying to pretend she had a narrow mission to travel to Guatemala and investigate "root causes" of the influx. 

PolitiFact and USA Today's fact checkers tried to argue that “Biden didn’t put Harris in charge of overseeing border security," that this was always the job of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. Never mind the 2021 headlines like Biden puts Harris in charge of border crisis (Axios.com) and Biden tasks Harris with 'stemming the migration' on southern border (NBC News).

You also can't say the result was "open borders." They call themselves "independent fact-checkers" but their defensive behavior turns that into a lie. "Fact checkers" are spin spoilers.

We also think it's time to point and laugh at liberal journalists who are outraged Kamala Harris is disparaged as a "San Francisco liberal." She came from San Francisco. And she's liberal. Facts are facts. But they don't like the way Republicans make it sound like a bad thing.
