(DCNF)—MSNBC host Joe Scarborough admitted Friday that Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign statements in her run for the Democratic nomination during the 2020 cycle are haunting her 2024 bid.
Harris has backed away from several left-wing positions on health care, gun control, illegal immigration and fracking that she held during her campaign for the 2020 Democratic nomination for president. Scarborough said that her latest campaign has done well responding to her past policy statements, but that they need to be aware of commercials that could sway voters, citing one noting her past support for taxpayer-funded sex change operations for illegal immigrants.

“By the way, just for people that are watching going, ‘Wait, how could they not, how could they not vote for Kamala Harris?’ What they’re seeing, and I saw it this weekend while I was watching football games, commercial after commercial after commercial after commercial of Kamala Harris in 2019 saying that she supported federal funding for transition operations,” Scarborough told “Morning Joe” panelist John Heilemann.
“Well, and they get quotes from her in 2019 where she was trying to be more woke than anybody else in 2019. And I think the campaign has done a good job cleaning a lot of that stuff up. They need to look at the commercials that are being run over and over and over again,” Scarborough continued.
Harris told the American Civil Liberties Union in 2019 she would ensure that illegal immigrants being detained would have access to sex-change procedures at taxpayer expense.
“I support policies ensuring that federal prisoners and detainees are able to obtain medically necessary care for gender transition, including surgical care, while incarcerated or detained,” she said. “Transition treatment is a medical necessity, and I will direct all federal agencies responsible for providing essential medical care to deliver transition treatment.”
Harris leads former President Donald Trump by 2.2% in the RealClearPolling average of polls from September 19 to October 2, with the vice president’s lead dropping to 2% when Green Party candidate Dr. Jill Stein, independent candidate Cornel West, Libertarian candidate Chase Oliver and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. are included in surveys.
“Because again, it’s not you or me in Florida or New York that they need to worry about. It’s the guys in Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, that are looking —” Scarborough said, before Heilemann interrupted with additional cities, “— who are watching sports on streaming channels.”

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
