CNN ran a revealing story yesterday headlined, “Kamala Harris spars with Fox News anchor in testy interview.” Almost every mockingbird media headline about yesterday’s interview with Fox News’ Brett Baier included the word, “testy.” So now we know! Testy means when the reporter insists that the interviewee answer the question, a rare strain of media treatment Kamala has never before encountered, but which used to be the default back before the government acquired corporate media.

During her ‘testy’ interview with Brett, Kamala tried to execute the same oleaginous maneuver as during her debate with Trump, which was to recite a little memorized speech whenever Brett asked her a question, even if the little speech had nothing whatever to do with the question Brett asked except for the topic area.

For instance:

BRET: “How many illegal immigrants would you estimate your administration has released into the country over the last three and a half years?”

KAMALA: “Bret, let's just get to the point. Okay? The point is that we have a broken immigration system that needs to be repaired.”

(Am I the only one who finds totally infuriating Kamala’s verbal tic of punctuating her speeches with “Okay?”)

She also claimed, possibly for the very first time, that her presidency would not in fact just continue Joe Biden’s regime. But, when Brett asked her to name something she’d do differently than Joe, she couldn’t even come up with a single example. She just rambled away sixty seconds of precious airtime.

Based on corporate media’s desperate efforts to rescue her from herself, and based on social media’s crowd reaction, it was the worst interview performance Kamala has ever given. My guess is she won’t be sitting for any more unscripted interviews. Back to the basement.
