Pace and Nagy out!

Kamala Harris Surveys the World​

The Vice President needs help on the major threats to American security.​

By The Wall Stree Editorial Board

Vice President Kamala Harris on Dec. 16.​

The White House is rolling out Kamala Harris for year-end interviews to improve her public standing. A generous judgment is that this isn’t helping the Vice President or the country.

The latest example is her interview with CBS’s “Face the Nation” on Sunday. After some boilerplate on Covid, the economy and voting rights, host Margaret Brennan turned to foreign policy: “What do you see is the biggest national security challenge confronting the U.S.? What is the thing that worries you and keeps you up at night?”

Ms. Harris answered this way: “Frankly, one of them is our democracy. And that I can talk about because that’s not classified. . . . there is I think no question in the minds of people who are foreign policy experts that the year 2021 is not the year 2000. You know, I think there’s so much about foreign and domestic policy that, for example, was guided and prioritized based on Sept 11, 2001.

“And we are embarking on a new era where the threats to our nation take many forms, including the threat of autocracies taking over and having outsized influence around the world. And so I go back to our point about the need to fight for the integrity of our democracy. In addition, it is obviously about what we need to do in the climate crisis."

---

In a world of growing risks from China, Russia, Iran, cyber attacks and hypersonic weapons, the Vice President names U.S. democracy and climate change as America’s most important security challenges. Yikes. Perhaps she didn’t want to make news on a security question, so she fell back on her political safe spaces.

By “our democracy” she means the new state laws that address ballot integrity. Whatever else those laws are, they aren’t a threat to U.S. security. As for climate, we’d agree with her if she meant the threat of Biden Administration policies to reduce U.S. energy supplies and weaken the electrical grid. But she’s referring to rising temperatures and the urgent need to pass policies that have no chance—none—of stopping climate change.

This isn’t the real world of threats we are living in, and it’s dangerous that a year into the job she still can’t talk realistically about national security. The Vice President needs an intervention from people outside her political bubble.

Micah's first game against Painter. It is safe to say that no opposing head coach knows Purdue's players better than the PSU head coach. Will that have much of an impact Saturday?

Ya worried yet?....Jags up 23-3 late 3rd Qtr. Better get the golf clubs out.

Great article describing what is going on in America and the world tight now.

Concentration Camps and gas chambers are absolutely coming, of they aren't here already, if we don't snap out of this. Truly scary stuff.

There's an interesting mix of opinion on the board after yesterday's game. Hard to gauge what the general reaction is.

For example: Brian's lookback at the tape was pretty positive, whereas another poster suggested we may be the most overrated team in college basketball.

Purdue only team with 3 players on the list....sky isn't falling just yet.

8-6 (2-1)

W vs Morehead State 93-31
W vs Niagara 89-65
W vs Valparaiso 76-62
W vs Bryant 100-60
L at Fordham 71-68
L at St Francis (BKN) 66-63
W vs Oakland 84-71
W vs Marshall 85-75 We beat Marshall 70-60.
L vs Notre Dame 76-71
L at Iowa 88-61
W vs Illinois 75-60
L vs Florida Gulf Coast 85-84 (2OT)
L vs West Virginia 74-54 We lost to West Virginia 65-57
W vs Nebraska (72-69)

This is a big opportunity to get to .500 in conference and win one on the road. Wasn't really impressed with their resume until that last win against Nebraska. I think they are 7-1 at home and 1-5 away from home.

Also, this is where Tamara Farquhar transferred and she is averaging 5 points and 6 boards in a game in about 22 minutes per game.

I don’t think we can make the final 4 without a change at the PG rotation. Hunter has lost all his confidence and IT is so undersized when playing high level competition.

As Settles said multiple times “Put Ivey at point“ and let Morton and IT spell him. With Gillis hitting 3s our deep shooting is fine without Hunter and IT

PG - Ivey
SG - Sasha
SF - Morton
PF - Gillis/Furst
C - Williams/Edey

Wife was kind and bought us two tickets to the game on Friday. With COVID concerns, we've decided not to go. She did not demonstrate good judgment and bought them for an absurd price. We would like $100 for each of them, OBO. Section 117 row 24.

Question for those who attended the Wisconsin game: wasn’t it obvious that the Badgers intentionally timed their fouled-out players sitting down so that the “SIT DOWN!” would be shouted during our player’s free throw motion?

Someone asked CMP about this during his show and he didn’t seem to think it was intentional.

Feels about right. We trail Auburn who is 4 by 54 votes, USC by 13, AZ by 5, lead Duke by 9, and Kansas is 108 back.

Any idea if he is on our radar … kid looks like a Boilermaker

Have a listen....for the record we have the inventors of both the PCR and MRNA tech on the record against how this tech is being used in this pandemic.


Who are you going to believe governments and big pharma, or actual scientists?

watching IU vs MN and wondering how a Williams & Edey lineup would work against TJD & Thompson? Seems from a power inside standpoint we would be overwhelming. Neither TJD nor RT would be taking our guys outside shooting 3's. On offense, I think both Trev & Edey can make a 12-15 ft jumper from the foul line when the other big gets doubled down low. What is the opinion of the rest of you coaches? Seems to me we need to get more minutes from 2 of our 3 best players.

Our defense is going to cost us a lot of games in the BIG this year. Wouldn't be surprised with an early exit in the tournament either. Very frustrating. Normally our D is really good. Not this year though.

Anyone remember this attack on our democracy?? Just as bad as Pearl Harbor and 9/11

I actually thought Wisconsin would be higher, and we would be about 6-9th.

It long enough to actually get a Big Ten win???

After a 15 point lead the first half. Clutch shots by Davis again.

Gard Coach of the Year right now. Team is playing well with the best player in the Big - as of now. It's a long ass season. Two road wins already. Kohl not an easy place to get a W (see IU choke job).

This pass was a thing of beauty! I know we lost the game. However, it’s incredible to see the play worked like we always thought it would…lol.
