Here are a few of Kamala Harris's misstatements that the ABC News moderators let her get away with. |

GOP Blasts Schumer's CR Threat: 'Citizens Voting in U.S. Elections? Why Is That Even Controversial?' |
by Suzanne Bowdey |
Summer may be over, but the theatrics over the federal budget certainly aren't. Congress flew back into D.C. this week for another hamster wheel of government spending fights - only this time, the drama is getting a shot of election politics. That should at least make this spat - which has seen more reruns than "M*A*S*H" - more interesting. Either way, most Americans probably wish there was a way to govern more efficiently. As Tom Temin joked on The Federal Drive, "I can see the next bumper sticker in Washington: 'Pass Bills, Not Gas.'" |

38% Rise in Home Prices Leaves Families Stranded in Place |
by Joshua Arnold |
The average price of a single-family home has risen nearly 38% since President Joe Biden took office, according to the S&P Case-Shiller home price index. The sudden spike, along with rising interest rates, has acted as a giant emergency brake on homebuying, leaving many families stranded in places they did not expect to be long-term. It also drove a giant wedge between those who own a home and those who do not. But not all is hopeless. |

Small Ohio Town Reels from Biden-Harris Immigrant Dump |
by S.A. McCarthy |
Residents of a little city in the Buckeye State may soon have to start hiding their cats and dogs, as the Biden-Harris administration has dropped thousands of Haitian immigrants into the suburbs of small-town USA. Since taking office in 2021, President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris have imported over 100,000 Haitian immigrants into the U.S. Nearly 20,000 of those Haitians have been settled in Springfield, Ohio over the course of the past three years under Temporary Protected Status, increasing the city's population of 60,000 by a third, overwhelming municipal services, and causing a spike in traffic accidents and crime. |

Wave of Pro-Abortion Ballot Initiatives Contain Vague Language, Hidden Agendas, Experts Say |
by Dan Hart |
As the November election approaches in eight weeks, abortion will be front and center with 10 ballot initiatives in states across the country asking voters to enact or reject measures addressing the issue.

Harris Supported Taxpayer-Funded Trans Surgeries in 2019, Called 'Transition Treatment ... a Medical Necessity' |
by Joshua Arnold |
The Kamala Harris campaign kept her policies (and person) away from the mainstream media for so long that the media went snooping through the past. On Monday, CNN's Andrew Kaczynski first reported Harris's support for taxpayer-funded gender transition surgeries on federal prisoners and detained illegal immigrants, revealed in a candidate questionnaire she filled out for the ACLU during her abortive 2019 presidential campaign. |

Pastor Hamrick: 'Get Over Looking for the Most Perfect Person' and 'Vote for the Better Choice' |
by Sarah Holliday |
In his 2024 election sermon, Cornerstone Chapel Senior Pastor Gary Hamrick explained how in our country's history, "[T]he church has always played ... a critical role in speaking out about faith and politics and how faith should shape our politics." Over time, he acknowledged, "Jefferson's phrase [concerning the] separation of church and state ... letter has been used to remove God from the public square and to remove church from government influence." Rather than protecting our First Amendment rights, those in opposition have sought to intimidate "a lot of pastors from addressing things that are referred to as political in the pulpit." |
