It’s remarkable to see how much Kamala Harris has progressed since launching her campaign, particularly considering her lack of significant action. Instead of keeping a low profile, she seems to be overshadowed by Megan Thee Stallion. In fact, her spouse has responded to more inquiries regarding personal controversies than Harris herself. She remains unchanged—the same Kamala that voters overlooked. Just three weeks ago, Trump faced an assassination attempt, and two weeks before that, he unveiled a monumental political scandal: the Democratic government concealing the president’s dementia, thereby endangering the nation while facilitating Harris’s nomination.
Yet, apparently, that’s old news, overshadowed by other narratives. This showcases the media’s influence in presenting Harris in a new light. It’s as if Whoopi Goldberg transformed overnight into Halle Berry. Harris hasn’t needed to take any action; the powers that be have taken care of her image. The polls reflect everything. If Harris was a constant factor, then what else impacted these numbers? The answer is everything surrounding her. Identity politics is evidently the driving force here, as there is little else to highlight about her. Are we looking at her accomplishments, insights, or eloquence? No, her roles have shifted to the point where they either seem incomprehensible or are no longer relevant. Additionally, her stance on her heritage fluctuates. Nevertheless, the core message is centered around identity, and questioning it is strictly off-limits.
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: Why is former President Trump questioning the vice president’s racial identity?
REP. BYRON DONALDS: First off, George, during an exchange in Chicago, he was responding to a question posed by Rachel Scott. Honestly, this feels like a made-up controversy. Most people are indifferent to it.
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: You just echoed the slur. If it doesn’t matter, why does this come up repeatedly? She has always identified as a Black woman, being biracial with a Jamaican father and an Indian mother. Why are these aspects questioned?
REP. BYRON DONALDS: George, this discourse is prevalent across social media right now, with many attempting to understand it. But frankly, this is a side issue and not the core issue.
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: One moment. You just did it again. Why continue to question her racial identity?
REP. BYRON DONALDS: Are you going to let me speak or will you keep interrupting?
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: I want to hear your answer.
In parallel, CNN highlighted a local reporter engaging Black men in a barbershop about whether Harris would sway them to the Democratic vote.
Ah, yes. That famous “some,” which allows another white individual to dismiss the views of Black individuals unless they align with his. This encapsulates the Democratic approach—they no longer view people as unique individuals but rather as members of a collective. Therefore, you aren’t casting your vote for the individual who mismanaged the border and concealed Biden’s mental decline; you’re voting for Black women instead. Harris’s identity narrative was penned by Joe when he selected her based on her race and gender; yet, noting this fact apparently makes one a racist.
We’re expected to overlook that initial occurrence, much like when Kudlow ironically appeared at my residence in handcuffs. However, they manage to obscure Harris’s distinctive flaws by reducing her to group characteristics. Thus, she shifts from unique to merely special. Under both God and nature, we are all unique, yet that does not mean we are all special. Your struggles hold equal weight with mine and vice versa. Yet in a world where divine and natural truths are deemed irrelevant, we’ve forsaken the value of individuality for the allure of specialness. Why might a healthy young individual alter their body drastically? Because they forsake their uniqueness for what society prescribes as special.
KAMALA HARRIS SUPPORTERS UNCERTAIN ABOUT VP’S POLICY ACHIEVEMENTS
Parents also enable this phenomenon, still striving for their own sense of specialness. Hair colors turn to shaved heads; piercings and tattoos become badges of fervent activism, replacing true individuality. Each day becomes a quest to prove one’s specialness. However, such attempts merely enhance vulnerability to scrutiny following foolish actions taken in the name of social justice. This leads to one being part of the most cherished classification of all—victims. Yet this idea of specialness resembles non-waterproof paint.
It washes away at dawn, necessitating a fresh coat—another cause, a different slogan, new pronouns, or an added accessory. The opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics epitomized the endgame of identity: glorifying excess while turning away from beauty, and in due course, the sin of pride compels others to project their specialness while dismissing your rightful place in existence. And should you dare to question, the consequence is backlash.
They have derided Christianity and claim victimhood because that scrutiny was acknowledged. This spirals into deeper, hollower excesses, overshadowing the essence of true uniqueness. An 80-year-old Black gentleman at a prestigious university might trace his lineage back to enslaved ancestors; an 18-year-old White male could have endured a childhood ravaged by addiction and abuse.

Both are distinct, but one cannot be deemed more special than the other. Whether it involves Kamala Harris or fervent activists or the Olympic spectacle, the underlying toxin remains unchanged. Opting for specialness over uniqueness should come with a dire warning—potentially lethal if ingested.
