Kamala Harris’s political career serves as a textbook example of how to leverage incompetence into advancement. The former Vice President, now a hopeful candidate for the Democratic nomination, has demonstrated a unique ability to fail upwards. She has climbed the ladder of power through a series of government roles, each marked by a remarkable lack of achievement, save for securing well-paid positions. Her latest foray into seeking the presidency reveals her allies in the media are scrambling to rewrite her past, particularly regarding her notorious tenure on border issues.
Recent coverage from Axios highlights a growing narrative designed to rescue Harris from the flaming wreckage of her record. The piece attempts to downplay Harris’s role as “border czar,” a moniker used repeatedly by conservatives to characterize her disastrous stewardship over immigration issues. Axios boldly asserts that she never officially held this title, an argument that is as flimsy as it is disingenuous. They conclude on a high note, claiming that President Biden’s recent border strategies have led to a decline in illegal crossings, an assertion contradicted by observable facts on the ground.
The reality is stark. Since the Biden administration took office, the U.S. has witnessed a staggering influx of illegal migrants, with estimates exceeding ten million. This surge has unleashed a host of social issues, including increased crime rates tied to drug and human trafficking, violence, and a deterioration of community safety. The supposed leadership of Biden and Harris on border security now rings hollow, as any modest progress on lowering crossing numbers can be chalked up to restrictive policies initiated in response to the chaos that has characterized their tenure.
In a spectacular twist of irony, Axios itself previously reported on Harris’s appointment to this very role, making their current claims seem even more absurd. The blatant contradiction is a prime example of the media’s attempts to rewrite history in favor of a failing political figure. This misdirection further underscores the lengths to which the elite media will go to shield Democrats from accountability for their disastrous policies.

It’s clear that the press, in their zeal to bolster Harris’s image, is hoping to sweep her failures under the rug. However, the magnitude of her mismanagement appears insurmountable. As her campaign attempts to convince voters that she is a beacon of hope, it’s evident that the reality of her record speaks volumes louder than any media spin can cover up.
In summation, the ongoing media campaign to rehabilitate Kamala Harris’s faltering reputation should be seen for what it is: a desperate, albeit poorly executed, attempt to prop up a candidate whose performance in office has been nothing short of catastrophic. The challenges posed by the current administration – particularly on border security – are substantial and cannot be mitigated by mere narrative manipulation. The American public deserves an honest appraisal of leadership failures, rather than the fiction being peddled by partisan outlets.
