Kamala Harris has been the presumptive Democrat nominee for president for just over one week following Joe Biden’s decision to drop out of the race on July 21. In that time, the corporate media and Democrat establishment have already launched into a blatant and shameless effort to rewrite history on Harris’s past and failed record – in many cases directly contradicting their own prior reporting and statements.

Here are five Big Lies we’re already seeing being pushed on the American people when it comes to Kamala Harris.

BIG LIE #1: Kamala Harris was never Biden’s “border czar”

In March 2021, Biden tasked Harris with leading the administration’s efforts on illegal immigration, which was even then emerging as a major crisis.

Scores of outlets reported on this at the time. Axios explicitly referred to Harris as Biden’s “border czar” in one article, while running another headline reading, “Biden puts Harris in charge of border crisis.” The New York Times also reported that Biden’s first “border czar” was “delighted to see the vice president take on that role.” Politico asserted that Biden had made Harris “the point person on immigration issues,” NBC said Biden had “tasked Harris with ‘stemming the migration’ on the southern border,” and the Associated Press reported, “Biden taps VP Harris to lead response to border challenges.”

Three years later, however, Harris’s complete and utter failure to do anything about the border is an inconvenient fact for the media establishment now trying to elevate her to the White House. Their solution has been to simply claim that Harris was never put in charge of the border, and that any claims to the contrary are “Republican misinformation.”

USA Today, for instance, now rates the claim that Kamala Harris was put in charge of the border as “false,” despite the fact that three years ago the outlet reported that “Harris will lead U.S. efforts to stem migration.” Numerous other outlets have likewise insisted that Harris wasn’t in charge of the border, but only addressing the “root causes” of illegal immigration in Central America – a narrative belied by their own prior reporting and White House statements.

The corporate media have latched on to the specific term “border czar” to suggest that Republicans are being dishonest, pointing out that Biden never actually used it (even though many news outlets did). But as usual, the mainstream press is intentionally missing the forest for the trees. Biden indeed put Harris in........
