The New York Times is apparently trying to pass off satire as “news” with its latest feature about the awesome Veep Kamala Harris. The story is “Kamala Harris Takes On a Forceful New Role in 2024 Campaign.” The fake news begins with the subhed: “The vice president is trying to reclaim the momentum that propelled her to Joseph R. Biden Jr.’s side as a candidate and into the White House in 2020.”

Would this be the “momentum” that saw her squander her fat early fundraising haul, have no clear campaign strategy aside from calling Joe Biden a racist and folding at the first attack from Tulsi Gabbard in a debate, seeing the money dry up, and then dropping out of the race before a single primary or caucus was held? That momentum?
