As president, Kamala Harris promises to prosecute drug cartels she allowed into the US as vice president

PHOENIX, AZ — Vice President Kamala Harris took a strong stance on drug cartels during a campaign stop, vowing to crack down on those smuggling illegal drugs, particularly fentanyl, across the U.S. border. In a speech to a crowd, Harris vowed to “pursue them to the full extent of the law” and emphasized her personal understanding of the cartels’ activities.

However, her comments have drawn criticism from opponents who accuse her and President Joe Biden of failing to secure the U.S. border over the past four years. Critics allege that the administration’s immigration policies have allowed cartel members to enter the country, exacerbating the drug crisis that Harris is now vowing to address.

The vice president’s comments come amid growing concerns about the devastating impact of fentanyl on communities across the country. Despite her powerful message, criticism of her and the administration’s past border actions continues to fuel heated debate ahead of the 2024 presidential election.

VATICAN CITY — In a powerful and candid statement, Pope Francis called both U.S. presidential candidates “anti-life” and urged voters to carefully consider their choice in the upcoming election. Speaking on issues such as immigration and abortion, the pope stressed the moral complexity of the decision and described the candidates’ positions as harmful in various ways.

“Both are against life,” Francis said, referring to one candidate’s stance on migrants and the other’s stance on abortion. He reiterated the importance of voting, calling abstention “ugly” and advising people to vote for the “lesser of two evils.” While the pope did not explicitly say who he believed that to be, he left the decision to the conscience of voters, encouraging them to think deeply about their choice.

He said Harris is the one who “kills children.”

Francis’ comments add a new layer of debate as voters grapple with the moral and ethical implications of the 2024 presidential election. His remarks follow ongoing controversies in both campaigns, particularly around immigration policy and reproductive rights.
