PRESIDENT USA - KAMALA HARRIS

SEE OUR WWIII SURVIVAL GUIDE OR RETURN TO BASE

Commander John Storm just wants to be left alone to complete his DNA collection, and explore the uncharted regions on planet earth. But he always seems to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.

The US Presidential Democrat candidate, Kamala Harris, and Governor Tim Wltz, are taken hostage as part of the plan of the extreme activists to destroy all life on planet earth, to enable them to stage a Phoenix like comeback from the ashes, and takeover from the leaders they see as weak.

Concerning the assassination attempt on Donald Trump on July 14th 2024, Vice President Kamala Harris condemned the attack, urging Americans to “lower the temperature.” Adding: “Politics must never be a literal battlefield and, God forbid, a killing field.” At that time he had demanded a national security review. On March 30, 1981, President of the United States Ronald Reagan was shot and wounded by John Hinckley Jr. in Washington, D.C., as he was returning to his limousine after a speaking engagement at the Washington Hilton.

On November 22 1963, President John F. Kennedy was assassinated by Lee Harvey Oswald during a motorcade in Dallas, Texas.

Red Dragon's plan, 'Operation Grand Slam,' will destroy all civilization, history and heritage from thousands of years of human endeavor. All except that they want preserved. They just want to rule the world, and to rewrite history they way they believe it should be written. Their plan is to write themselves in as the saviors of the world.

Working with other like minded cells, the extremists kidnap Kamala Harris, Tim Waltz and other world leaders with nuclear capability. Holding them hostage, until their evil plan comes to fruition. After which their fate will be decided.

POPULAR MECHANICS  AUGUST 2024 - DAMNING REPORT SAYS U.S. ISN'T READY FOR A MAJOR WAR - IS AMERICA SLEEPWALKING INTO WWIII

- A new report claims that the U.S. is not prepared for the possibility of a major, or global, war.

- The authors - which include both Democrats and Republicans - state that the current threats to American security are the “most serious and most challenging since 1945.”

- Among the report’s recommendations are boosting the size of the U.S. military and a large force structure of tanks, aircraft, ships, and more.

A commission tasked with investigating America’s national security outlook has concluded that the U.S. is not ready to fight and prevail in a major war. The Commission on the National Defense Strategy states that America is wholly unprepared for a future conflict, with armed forces that are too small in number to prevail in a major war and inadequate defense spending. The commission warns that the danger to the U.S. is so serious that it eclipses the entirety of the Cold War, as the collective power of adversaries such as China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea grows.

THE WORLD IS CHANGING FAST FOR THE WORSE

In 2022, the Pentagon released the National Defense Strategy, a document that describes how it will “meet growing threats to U.S. vital national security interests and to a stable and open international system.” The strategy addresses threats to the global order by China and Russia—as well as Iran, North Korea, and high profile terrorist groups - and how the Department of Defense plans to address them.

The strategy was released shortly after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and warns that “in these times, business as usual at the Department is not acceptable.”

Congress mandated that a commission shadow the strategy and report on how it was working (or not working) in the real world. Their conclusion: just two years later, the strategy has been overtaken by real world events and the danger is the greatest it has been since World War II. This is a remarkable statement, considering World War II was followed by a 40-year-long Cold War and a nuclear standoff between the U.S. and the Soviet Union. The commission believes that the period in which we find ourselves now is even more dangerous, with the possibility of a major war - or even a multi theater or global one - having become very real.

The report cites China’s growing military power, Russia’s illegal invasion of Ukraine, and the propensity of both countries to intimidate and harass their neighbors in pursuit of territorial expansion. It cited the self-proclaimed “no limits'' friendship between the two countries, which includes Chinese support for Russia’s war in Ukraine. It also warned that growing ties between the two powers (along with Iran and North Korea‚ risk turning a war with one country into a war with two or more and resulting in a conflict of global proportions.

"WIN-HOLD-WIN" DOESN'T WORK ANYMORE

During the Cold War, the U.S. Military was sized to deter - and, if necessary, win - a war with the Soviet Union. The end of the Cold War in 1991 also spelled the end of the Soviet Union and its military power, and the military was downsized to fight two smaller wars against smaller powers like North Korea and Iran at the same time. This was later further reduced to a “win-hold-win” plan, in which the U.S. would anticipate fighting two smaller powers at once, but hold the line with one power until the other is beaten. This plan has more or less persisted to this day.

The problem with the plan, according to the commission, is the anticipated cooperation between China, Russia, North Korea, and Iran. The report cites a Chinese defense budget of $711 billion a year (a number approaching the U.S. defense budget), a rapidly growing People’s Liberation Army, and a growing Chinese nuclear arsenal. Russia is preoccupied in Ukraine, but the war demonstrates hostile intent against neighboring states - including members of NATO. North Korea has nuclearized since the two war plan, Iran is destabilizing the Middle East with covert operations, and both North Korea and Iran are growing militarily closer to Russia.

In other words, the United States could face a future conflict with one major power, or even a conflict with all four of them. The military is too small to fight and win a conflict with the larger powers. The armed forces - including the size of the force, the overall defense budget, and the amount of equipment - is not keeping pace with the threat.

A LARGER, MORE POWERFUL MILITARY

The Navy today stands at 297 ships, making it smaller (by number of hulls) than the Chinese People’s Liberation Army Navy. The report notes that the Navy plans to field a fleet of 377 ships, but that won’t happen until 2045. If the commission’s warning is heeded, we would see an accelerated buildup that ideally includes two new carriers, bringing the total number of carriers to thirteen. Increasing submarine production to three per year would generate 30 new submarines in ten years, while another three destroyers a year would help make up for the retirement of the Ticonderoga-class cruisers. The Navy could also use a boost in amphibious ships, especially to make up for the 2020 loss of USS Bonhomme Richard, and at least thirty new Constellation-class frigates. [Should consider autonomous drones, as cheaper and more effective]

In the event of a major war, the Air Force would be faced with the massive task of gaining air supremacy while destroying an enemy’s armed forces, industrial production capability, and access to the global economy. The service’s Next Generation Air Dominance (NGAD) fighter - slated to succeed the F-22 Raptor - would probably be built in greater numbers than the 1:1 replacement ratio the Air Force had in mind. It would also need about twice as many B-21 Raider bombers (200 in all) for a worst-case scenario in which it needed to perform conventional missions against both Russia and China at the same time while holding back a number of bombers for the nuclear deterrence mission. Finally, it would need to build KC-Zs, the service’s stealth refueling plane, to support friendly aircraft in contested areas.

The Army is the service struggling for relevance in the Pacific and Asia, where a war with China would be fought. Large mechanized forces, equipped with tanks and infantry fighting vehicles, would find few places to fight in a theater dominated by vast oceans. However, the service’s air and missile defense systems - such as Patriot and Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) - and the service’s new Long Range Hypersonic Weapon System (LRHW) could both provide a protective bubble for all services from land and quickly strike time sensitive targets up to 1,800 miles away.

The commission report is unexpectedly dire - all the more striking because it was authored by a bipartisan team of both Democratic and Republican appointees. Is the United States sleepwalking into World War III? Perhaps not, but the report notes that the U.S. was also slow to respond to trends in global terrorism that culminated in 9/11. A global war, possibly one involving the use of nuclear weapons, would be so far-off-the-charts worse that it is impossible to predict how bad things could get for the average American—if they live to see the end of it.

FINANCIAL TIMES 23 JULY 2024 - KAMALA HARRIS SECURES ENOUGH DELEGATES FOR DEMOCRATIC NOMINATION

Kamala Harris has secured enough delegates to win the Democratic presidential nomination, clinching her status as Donald Trump’s opponent in November’s presidential election.

The US vice-president passed the threshold on the first full day since President Joe Biden dropped his re-election bid and endorsed her for the Democratic presidential nomination, shaking up the 2024 race for the White House. 

According to a tally by the Associated Press, as of early Tuesday morning, Harris had won the pledged support of 2,668 delegates at next month’s Democratic National Convention, far more than the 1,976 needed.

“Tonight, I am proud to have earned the support needed to become our party’s nominee,” Harris said on X, noting that delegates from her home state of California had “put our campaign over the top”.

She earlier secured the backing of dozens of lawmakers and the most senior Democrats in Washington, including former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

Harris was also buoyed by a surge in fundraising, with her campaign collecting a record $81mn in contributions in the first 24 hours after the president dropped out — more than Biden raised in the first two months of his own bid. 

“In the days and weeks ahead I, together with you, will do everything in my power to unite our Democratic party, to unite our nation and to win this election,” Harris said in her first campaign speech, at what had been Biden headquarters in Wilmington, Delaware. 

Trump said in an angry response on his Truth Social network that the shift at the top of the Democrats’ ticket had misled “the Republican Party, causing it to waste a great deal of time and money”.

He added that he hoped there would be many debates in the rest of the campaign, claiming that Harris had “absolutely terrible pole [sic] numbers against a fine and brilliant young man named DONALD J. TRUMP”.

Harris told a crowd in Delaware that as a prosecutor in California before she was elected to high office she had come across “perpetrators of all kinds”, including “predators” who had abused women, as well as “fraudsters” and “cheaters”. “Hear me when I say, I know Donald Trump’s type,” she said. 

She accused the Republican nominee of seeking to take the US “back to a time before many of our fellow Americans had full freedoms and rights”.

“What kind of country do we want to live in?” she asked. “A country of freedom, compassion and rule of law? Or a country of chaos, fear and hate?” 

Harris’s remarks were preceded by a phone call from Biden, who is isolating with Covid-19 at his holiday home in Delaware. “The name has changed at the top of the ticket. But the mission hasn’t changed,” the president said. To Harris, he said: “I’m watching you, kid. I love ya.”

Many Democratic donors were thrilled by Biden’s decision to step aside, describing his age as a major liability that could have brought down many other Democrats in Congress as well as dooming the White House race.

The Harris campaign said that more than 888,000 people had donated in the day since she was endorsed by Biden, of whom 60 per cent had not given money in this election cycle.

The one-day haul was more than Biden attracted in his first 66 days on the campaign trail last year, more than he pulled in from a Hollywood fundraiser hosted by George Clooney and Julia Roberts, and more than three presidents — Biden, Bill Clinton and Barack Obama — raised together at Radio City Music Hall in New York.

It also exceeded Harris’s fundraising during the entirety of her ill-fated 2020 presidential campaign, and topped the mammoth haul Trump’s campaign reported the day after he became the first former president to become a convicted felon.

During her speech in Wilmington, Harris said she had asked Jen O’Malley Dillon, Biden’s campaign chair, to take charge of her presidential bid. She added that Julie Chavez Rodriguez, Biden’s campaign manager, would also stay on. 

Harris will be hoping that her entry into the race will give a jolt to the party’s prospects of taking back the White House by energising women, and young, Black and Hispanic voters, as well as drawing support from independent and swing voters turned off by Trump. 

The Republican nominee has built a solid lead in polling since Biden’s disastrous performance in their televised debate last month and after surviving an assassination attempt. 

Trump campaign advisers Susie Wiles and Chris LaCivita on Monday released a memo saying Biden’s decision had changed nothing. 

“The liberal elite and deep state — sensing the American public’s disgust with their lawfare, and now in a desperate Hail Mary — have swapped out an incumbent President for the incumbent vice-president in a ploy to try and shake up the race,” they wrote. 

They added: “The problem for the left and media elite? Kamala Harris is as bad, if not worse, than Joe Biden.” 

Born in Oakland, California, Harris graduated from Howard University and the University of California, Hastings College of the Law. She began her law career in the office of the district attorney (DA) of Alameda County, before being recruited to the San Francisco DA's Office and later the city attorney of San Francisco's office. In 2003, she was elected DA of San Francisco. She was elected attorney general of California in 2010 and re-elected in 2014. Harris served as the junior U.S. senator from California from 2017 to 2021; she defeated Loretta Sanchez in the 2016 Senate election to become the second African-American woman and the first South Asian American to serve in the U.S. Senate.
