Show Notes
On Friday’s Mark Levin Show, Kamala Harris is applying ideology to economics with price controls, lying to get votes, and concealing what she’s done. Harris and Biden are career politicians who have worked in government their entire lives and have no experience managing a payroll or running a real business. Countries that use price controls are typically totalitarian regimes where the government needs to make decisions instead of people using their free will; it is the complete destruction of the engine of capitalism. Harris has been hiding because her economic solution to Biden’s inflation is to increase government spending by over $1 trillion. We cannot accept Harris’ American Pravda media campaign and this plan is why we must demand answers. Later, Donald Trump gave a speech that’s been underreported because it was a strong defense of Israel and a strong attack on antisemitism.
