Kamala Botches Questions On Greatest U.S. Adversary, Trump Assassination Attempts

Vice President Kamala Harris claimed that Iran was the country that she considers to be the greatest U.S. adversary, despite its weak economy and military.

Harris made the remarks during a CBS News “60 Minutes” interview that aired Monday night when asked what country was America’s greatest enemy.

The bizarre answer comes after the Biden-Harris administration relaxed sanctions enforcement against the Islamic regime, allowing it to earn tens of billions of dollars in oil revenues that it has used to fund terrorism throughout the region.

“Iran has American blood on their hands,” she said. “And what we saw in terms of just this attack on Israel, 200 ballistic missiles, what we need to do to ensure that Iran never achieves the ability to be a nuclear power, that is one of my highest priorities.”

She refused to answer if she would take military action to stop Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons.

Most national security experts and U.S. officials also do not agree with the assessment that Iran is the greatest adversary the U.S. faces. China, Russia, and even North Korea are most often cited as greater threats.

Even Pakistan, which is not a U.S. adversary, has been cited by U.S. officials as being the country they worry about the most because of the country’s nuclear stockpile, political and social instability, and its Islamist government.

Her answer about Iran being the greatest adversary that America faces also complicated her answer about the assassination attempts that former President Donald Trump has faced.

Harris stated that resorting to violence to settle political differences was not acceptable and that she was disturbed by the attempts on Trump’s life.

However, she failed to call out Iran for its plot to kill the former president, which is ongoing, after federal law enforcement disrupted a plot over the summer and warned that Iran is not stopping.

House Intelligence Committee Chairman Mike Turner (R-OH) called out the Biden-Harris administration during an interview over the weekend for failing to call out Iran directly over its attempts to assassinate Trump.

“You have had no statements from the administration towards Iran as to what that would be, which would be an act of war,” he said. “And you don’t have any statements from Vice President Harris condemning this or even recognizing that there’s an active plot from a foreign nation to kill her opponent.”

“I do think that Vice President Harris needs to actively state and acknowledge that her administration is saying a foreign power, which would be an act of war is actively trying to kill her opponent,” he continued.

Turner added that the Biden-Harris administration “has made stronger statements about Iran’s hacking activities than they have about the active plot to kill Donald Trump, which the administration acknowledged is ongoing.”

“There has to be an acknowledgment, which has not happened from Vice President Harris, that there’s active plots from a foreign nation to kill her opponent,” he added.

Fibis I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
