Kamala Harris will not participate in Fox News debate on Sept. 4

Trump and Harris have both confirmed they would participate in a Sept. 10 debate on ABC News

Former President Trump said Monday night that Vice President Kamala Harris' team told his campaign that she would not participate in a Fox News presidential debate on September 4.

The proposed debate would have been held in Pennsylvania and moderated by Fox News anchors Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum.

The former president had initially been reluctant to debate Harris after President Biden suspended his re-election campaign because she was not the Democratic Party's official candidate before later agreeing to debate her once she secured the party's nomination for president.

Trump and Harris have both confirmed they would participate in a Sept. 10 debate on ABC News. Trump previously said he also agreed to an NBC News debate on Sept. 25.

The Harris campaign has said it would consider a second presidential debate in October. Both campaigns have also agreed to a vice presidential debate on CBS News on Oct. 1 between Minnesota Democratic Gov. Tim Walz and Ohio Republican Sen. J.D. Vance.


And,

ABC presidential debate moderator links Trump to KKK in DNC interview

ABC News anchor and presidential debate moderator Linsey Davis echoed talking points from the Harris-Walz campaign when she linked former President Trump to the KKK during an interview Monday night.

At the Democratic National Convention (DNC), Davis spoke to Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer about an upcoming campaign event Trump will hold in the town of Howell.

"As you know, former President Donald Trump is expected to go campaign in Howell, Michigan, tomorrow. Many people are aware that a month ago, in Howell, KKK protesters marched in the streets with the white robes on and suggested that they support Donald Trump. I’m curious if you make anything about that connection and him going in particularly to Howell tomorrow," Davis said.
“It is usually futile to try to talk facts and analysis to people who are enjoying a sense of moral superiority in their ignorance.”

Yeah, Howell is the home to the Michigan KKK. Big surprise that Dump wants to hold a rally there. But that's why he has Dump apologists like Seer to whine and cry when reporters point out the obvious--that Dump is a white supremacist.

Hope that helps.

https://www.vanityfair.com/magazine/201 ... ie-brenner
Donald Trump appears to take aspects of his German background seriously. John Walter works for the Trump Organization, and when he visits Donald in his office, Ivana told a friend, he clicks his heels and says, “Heil Hitler,” possibly as a family joke.

Last April, perhaps in a surge of Czech nationalism, Ivana Trump told her lawyer Michael Kennedy that from time to time her husband reads a book of Hitler’s collected speeches, My New Order, which he keeps in a cabinet by his bed. Kennedy now guards a copy of My New Order in a closet at his office, as if it were a grenade. Hitler’s speeches, from his earliest days up through the Phony War of 1939, reveal his extraordinary ability as a master propagandist.

“Did your cousin John give you the Hitler speeches?” I asked Trump.

Trump hesitated. “Who told you that?”

“I don’t remember,” I said.

“Actually, it was my friend Marty Davis from Paramount who gave me a copy of Mein Kampf, and he’s a Jew.” (“I did give him a book about Hitler,” Marty Davis said. “But it was My New Order, Hitler’s speeches, not Mein Kampf. I thought he would find it interesting. I am his friend, but I’m not Jewish.”)

Later, Trump returned to this subject. “If I had these speeches, and I am not saying that I do, I would never read them.”

Is Ivana trying to convince her friends and lawyer that Trump is a crypto-Nazi? Trump is no reader or history buff. Perhaps his possession of Hitler’s speeches merely indicates an interest in Hitler’s genius at propaganda.

And you don't remember correctly, apparently. Or intentionally obfuscating the actual history.
Fact check: Robert Byrd, eulogized by Joe Biden at funeral, was not KKK Grand Wizard

Social media users have been sharing content online that claims Democratic Presidential nominee Joe Biden eulogized Robert Byrd, asserting he was the grand wizard of the Ku Klux Klan (KKK). This claim is partly false. Though various prominent politicians eulogized Byrd at his funeral, the senator was never the grand wizard of the KKK and he has acknowledged and apologized for his membership during his youth.

In the early 1940s, Byrd recruited 150 people in West Virginia to form a chapter of the KKK. Joel L. Baskin, the grand dragon of the mid-Atlantic region, arrived to organize the chapter. Baskin was impressed with Byrd’s skills and encouraged him to get involved in politics. Byrd was unanimously named “exalted cyclops”, which meant that Byrd was the top officer in the local klan. The responsibilities for this role included leading meetings and initiating incoming members ( here; ).

Byrd later renounced his membership to the organization, although his early record in Congress on race and civil rights was mixed. For example, Byrd partook in a lengthy filibuster effort against the 1964 Civil Rights Act,  here  .

Byrd referred to his membership in a 2005 memoir: “It has emerged throughout my life to haunt and embarrass me and has taught me in a very graphic way what one major mistake can do to one's life, career, and reputation. Paradoxically, it was that same extraordinarily foolish mistake which led me into politics in the first place.”

So Byrd was ‘Exalted Cyclops’ rather than “Grand Wizard’.

Does one cartoonish designation make him less of a racist than the other?

You obviously didn't get the point. I'm not saying he wasn't scum (he most likely was) but he was made an "Exalted Cyclops" back in the 40s. He later renounced his association with the KKK and forcefully denounced them on multiple occasions. So, no, he was not an "Exalted Cyclops" when Biden, along with a lot of other fellow Senators, eulogized him when he died in 2010.

The fact that you think this has any equivalence to Trump's current racist actions and rhetoric convinces me even more that you should actively be seeking help for your mental disorder.

And BTW...it's my understanding that Biden is no longer running for President. So what's your point anyway?

If the Left has taught me anything it's "Once a Racist, Always a Racist."

Over the past 16+ years, this has been the policy of Democrats and I think it's fair and appropriate to apply the policy equally.

Robert Byrd was and IS a racist piece of shit and anyone associated with him are just as racist.

Again, don't blame me. Y'all made the rules.

From the ground yesterday...

Tue Morning: Inside the arena, a nice demonstration of collective Cluster-B personality disorder as Dems project all their animus, paranoia, and self-loathing on their opponents. AOC does her Eva Peron act (as voiced by Minnie Mouse); Hillary Clinton gloats and smirks as the mob yells “Lock him up!”; and “Joe Biden” repeats every hoax and lie cranked out by the blob since 2016 in his valedictory. Of course no one is asking how or why “JB” remains in office when he is obviously too far gone to serve. Outside the arena: not much action so far. A little fence-rattling. A lot of misinformed yelling about abortion, trans-this-and-that, themes that are now boring even to the mentally-ill youngsters doing the yelling.

Actually I was simply affirming that Byrd was a racist POS.

But, since I’m responding, so is Biden. One of the most obvious in our government for years.

Bullseye Screwy, Bullseye! Blump is just as much a racist as his fellow R presidents and candidates before him— George W Bush, Bob Dole, John McCain, Ben Carson, Mitt Romney. All proven racists (at the time they were running for POTUS).

It’s a shame we the Defenders of Democracy were not shouting this loud enough twenty years ago when Schlump was basically committing all his atrocities against humanity (and numerous corporate real estate attorneys).

I sometimes ask: where oh where were our heroes like Schiffd and Gelapelosi and Garland and Letisha James and Alvin Braggs back in the 90s when Dump was at the height of his KKK sympathizing and racist hiring practices?

It just baffles me that we didn’t put him in jail when he was walking off Oprah’s set in 1988. We literally had him. So depressing.
