The Debate is On, Russia & the Influencers, Kamala’s Continuous ‘No Comment’

Subscribe to 3 Martini LunchSubscribe

Join Jim and Greg as they discuss Kamala Harris finally agreeing to debate Donald Trump next week, the DOJ's indictment of Russians accused of paying online influencers in the U.S., and how Harris is refusing to take positions on key issues.

First, they're glad that next week's debate will go forward as scheduled after a lot of efforts to rework the agreement - from Trump demanding more debates to Harris insisting on unmuted microphones (which she failed to get). They explain the vapid reason Kamala wanted unmuted mics and whether this will be the final time she will take serious questions before Election Day.

Next, they react to the Justice Department's indictment of two Russians accused of money laundering and failing to register as foreign agents. The indictment also refers to a lot of money being spent on a media company featuring six prominent online influencers here in the U.S. The indictment says those commentators had no knowledge of the arrangement and are not being charged. Defenders of the commentators allege this is simply a return to the government's Russian collusion narrative from eight years ago.

Finally, they hammer Kamala Harris and her campaign for constantly dodging straightforward questions about her ever-evolving positions on many issues. The latest? Their refusal to say whether Harris would sign a legislative electric vehicle mandate that she sponsored while in the U.S. Senate.
