The Vice President is returning to Northeast Florida yet again, in the Joe Biden administration’s latest attempt to focus on the fight for reproductive rights in a state that restricts them.
Kamala Harris will be in Jacksonville on May 1, where multiple sources tell us she will speak at the Prime Osborn Center in the afternoon.
“The event will take place on the day the state is set to implement an abortion ban even more extreme than the one currently in effect. The Vice President will discuss the harms inflicted by state abortion bans and continue to make the case that ‘Donald Trump did this.'”
The reference is to the state’s Heartbeat Protection Act, which restricts termination of pregnancy after the sixth week except in cases of rape, incest or danger to the mother. That replaces the ban on the procedure after the 15th week of pregnancy.
Contrary to the White House claim, though, Gov. Ron DeSantis and the Florida Legislature ratified those laws, albeit in the context of the U.S. Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision overturning Roe v. Wade and giving the states latitude to craft restrictions as they saw fit.
“This will also be the Vice President’s 12th trip to Florida since taking office. She last visited the state in March, when she discussed gun violence prevention in Parkland. In January 2023, she visited Tallahassee to mark the anniversary of the Roe v. Wade decision and discuss reproductive freedom,” the White House notes.
Harris is an increasingly familiar presence in Jacksonville as well.
In 2021, she visited the city to survey local COVID-19 response, accompanied by then-Mayor Lenny Curry, a former Chair of the Republican Party of Florida.
Last year, she came to the city to link the state’s treatment of Black history to “powerful forces’” efforts to “distort history,” including to “minimize or even deny the Holocaust” and obscure the history of Japanese internment camps or the treatment of native peoples.
“They insult us in an attempt to gaslight us and we will not have it,” Harris said.

The current administration’s policy priority is the termination of innocent life. Not the economy. Not the slaughter of Jews. Not the possible World War 3 on the horizon. Not the porous border fueling a fentanyl crisis and stretching municipal budgets thin. Let that sink in for a minute.

GEORGE, the fentanyl crisis is caused by demand. people with little hope because they have been lied to and cheated, is more of a cause.

Ya know what would be great?
If Kamala could spend around .45 minutes to an hour on May 1st skooling everyone on “The Signaficance Of The Passage Of Time”.
If we are promised a deep dive into “The Signaficance Of The Passage Of Time” I, Earl Pitts American, will charter 3 busses from The Villages to bring me peeps up to JAX to bring everyone up to speed on “The Signaficance Of The Passage Of Time”.
Now if Kamalla’ gonna incorperate Venn Diagrams into her “The Signaficance Of The Passage Of Time” lecture I will need to chartet a 4th buss.
LETS GET REAL AMERICA:
Who’s not totally into learning all we can from a Sage Expert on “The Signaficance Of The Passage Of Time”?
Thank you America,

Kamala Harris campaigning for abortions, the termination of a human life, proves what kind of person she is.
nothing about the borders she is responsible for, because the borders are working just fine for her & her sponsors– as they try to replace Americans in our country, with socialist thinking people from round the world.– some of which HATE THIS COUNTRY , but still allowed into it– AND WE REQUIRED TO SUPPORT THEM

Attempts at termination of innocent life is what’s going on in states like Texas and Florida when women are refused medical treatment for having a fetus in them which is dead and going to kill them too if it’s left in there.
The economy is fantastic. Did you want it broken again like when Trump’s term wrapped?
The slaughter of Jews happened one day last year and that wasn’t on Biden. That was on Netenyahu, the guy facing prison time in Israel like Trump is facing prison time here. Netenyahu was able to stop 350 missiles drones and rockets from Iran in a single night, but dipsticks on hang gliders assembling on the border for months and then going up on hilltops to launch and then coasting over the border wall (lol, another wall that didn’t work) somehow, SOME HOW, evaded any prophylactic response whatever from Netenyahu. Why? Either becauase the IDF’s surveillance of Gaza and intelligence from Gaza are totally useless, or because Netenyahu wanted it to happen. Netenyaho wanted an excuse for what he’s been doing ever since. If you don’t like that 1200+ people that were permitted by Netenyahu’s government to build and live in the danger zone, talk to Netenyahu, not Biden, about that.
Porous border. Fentanyl. Yawn. FIrearms and ammo continuously stream south across that border. That’s why despite G0P claims to want a secure border, a bill giving them exactly that was just shot down by Unelected House Speaker Trump.
And all the immigrants crossing the border into USA. Would they really go to all that trouble if it weren’t for the trouble back home that was created by all the guns and ammo that the USA could possibly send there across our open southern border? NOPE. They’d be at home, perfectly happy to be where they were born and raised, but the USA’s 2A industry ruined their home.
Now, find an AI that will produce a fake Fows News talking head and have it read the above to you so maybe you’ll listen to it and believe it rather that read the first sentence and skip the rest becauase it’s not what you wanted to hear. I am not trying to sell any manhood pills to you. I am just trying to tell you the truth, and maybe you don’t want to hear that. But if you read all the way to here, LMK and I’ll get you some gerenic givaraga for a mere third of a chuck duck buck each

The fentanyl is not coming via the bedraggled asylum seekers on the news all the time. It’s coming into ports and border crossings. Biden agreed to increase hiring for border security, but Trump ordered his congressional puppets to sit on their hands until he returned to office in Nov. Then, DJT himself would solve the problems in one day as dictator.

Trump as a dictator? More fear mongering that you get from CNN and MSNBC, and of course as a zombie you buy right into it. I wonder if the state run press will ask Ka Mana what is her latest solution on the Southern Border mess. She is the czar after all. I’m sure she will just giggle the answer away. She is a perfect match for Slo Joe. Dumb and Dumber.

If Trump trying to elevate himself beyond the power and term of the Presidency is “fear mongering that you get from CNN and MSNBC,” what was he trying to do that one January 6th when the electoral votes were being counted by Congress over in the Capitol building and all his fan boys broke in and tore the place apart trying to stop the counting, but succeeding only in a delay of several hours while Trump sat and ate hamberders while watching all of it on TV yet taking to action to remedy anything about the situation at the Capitol, you know, the place where he just instructed all those folks who broke in and wrecked to place to march to? Do tell!

That protest went too far. In the heat of the moment without thinking clearly they made a stupid decision. Now if you think this was an attempt to overthrow the US Government then you are delusional. Too much crack tv (CNN, MSNBC). These people were armed with cell phones, American Flags, and back packs. There was no coup attempt. The defund the police Democrats would have had their hated police and the US military and not would have been over in a flash.
