Kamala Reinvents Freedom

We had a popular piece in the New York Post this weekend exposing the hypocrisy of Kamala Democrats in trying to hijack the “freedom” theme.

Freedom is about liberty, the absence of government oppression, and about giving Americans the right to choose how to live their lives. We like Kamala’s own definition when she told union workers in Michigan last week: Americans don’t want “their government telling them what to do.”

Yes, but the entire Kamala-Walz playbook is about not allowing people to make their own decisions:

      • Harris is a staunch opponent of school choice and allowing families to select the school best for their children. Doesn’t freedom mean that everyone, of all incomes and races, has access to great schools?
      • Harris favors outlawing gas-powered cars. Isn’t the right to drive the car of your choice a basic freedom?
      • Harris backs climate change bans or restrictions on a handful of common household conveniences from lightbulbs to air conditioners to gas stoves. Doesn’t freedom mean keeping the government out of the bedroom and the kitchen?
      • Harris supports the “PRO Act,” which would force workers to join unions against their will or lose their jobs. What next? Forcing voters to be Democrats before they can vote?
      • Harris has advocated Medicare for All, which means you lose the right to choose and keep your own health-care plan.
      • Harris and Tim Walz were among the strongest advocates of militant lockdowns of schools, businesses, and churches during the COVID pandemic.  Isn’t freedom the right to keep your business open, to attend religious services, to earn a paycheck, and for kids to go to school?
      • Harris is in favor of much higher tax rates on businesses and estates — and even a tax on unrealized capital gains on farms, ranches, and family-owned business. Doesn’t freedom mean reasonable taxation and the right to pass your life savings to your children and grandchildren? (Remember: confiscatory estate taxes were a key plank of Marx’s Communist Manifesto.)

We could go on. But Kamala isn’t lying when she says that freedom is on the ballot in November.
