With just five weeks left until the election, Democrat nominee Kamala Harris still hasn’t done a real press conference since being installed as Joe Biden’s replacement, instead appearing in friendly settings that can be carefully controlled.
In the latest Kamala-coddling “interview” the veep dropped by the “All the Smoke” podcast to chat with former NBA players Stephen Jackson and Matt Barnes for a conversation that was light on substance at a time when her performance during the crisis wrought by Hurricane Helene has been sorely lacking.
Among the important topics during the 45-minute episode was the vice president’s loyalty to her hometown Golden State Warriors, the NBA’s most “woke” team in a league that now serves as a vehicle for left-wing politics.
Even if they are in San Francisco now, the Golden State Warriors will always be Oakland to me.

During the free-wheeling discussion, Harris talked roundball, race, and dope, throwing her support behind legalizing pot, a big sop to the bong-pounding slackers who may be tempted to get off the couch and vote.
“I just think we have come to a point where we have to understand that we need to legalize it and stop criminalizing this behavior,” she said.
Harris also told the hosts that she strongly feels that people “should not be going to jail for smoking weed.” a change of heart from the former prosecutor who “oversaw more than 1,900 marijuana convictions in San Francisco” during her time as the city’s district attorney, according to a 2019 report by the San Jose Mercury News.
In another one of the jewels from the episode which came out on Monday, Harris talked about her reaction after learning that Biden was forced out by a Nancy Pelosi-led coup, cackling that she went and marinated a pork roast.

“Look, from the time that the president called me and told me he wasn’t running, I mean, it just like, everything was in speedy, speedy motion. And I was not sleeping so well,” she said. “And that one morning, I just – I mean, I had, I don’t know, a few hours sleep and not – you know, I like to sleep.”
“I just got up, I was like, and so I just went out and got a pork roast and started marinating it,” she added, laughing hysterically.
Harris’ podcast appearance comes after her MSNBC “fluffball” sit-down with rabid left-winger Stephanie Ruhle, hardly the sort of hard-hitting discussion that the American people deserve considering that she is seeking to become their next president.
Major media had to acknowledge the strategy of her handlers keeping the veep in the safe spaces of friendly environments with fawning hosts.
“That strategy may ultimately prove winning, but it’s a disservice to the American people and to her own record,” the New York Times Editorial Board wrote, endorsing her anyway because they hate Trump. “And leaving the public with a sense that she is being shielded from tough questions, as Mr. Biden has been, could backfire by undermining her core argument that a capable new generation stands ready to take the reins of power.”
“So she’s going to continue talking to the American people in these sorts of settings and formats,” Harris campaign spox Ian Sams said during a Monday appearance on CNN.
