Team Harris Swears Kamala Won’t Kill Fracking, But Will Anyone Believe Them?

Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign has said she no longer endorses a ban on fracking, but political strategists and energy experts say the sudden policy shift will do little to move the needle with key voters in November.

Harris said in 2020 there is “no question” she would end fracking if elected president, but her campaign recently told The Hill she no longer wants to outlaw the practice after videos of her endorsing a ban resurfaced following President Joe Biden’s withdrawal from the 2024 race. The campaign can walk back Harris’ old fracking position as it pleases, but it likely won’t be enough to allay the concerns of crucial voting blocs — particularly more rural, blue-collar voters in Pennsylvania — that Harris may wage war on the industry or otherwise escalate Biden’s climate agenda to their detriment if elected, political strategists and energy experts told the Daily Caller News Foundation.

“She is going to find herself between a rock and a hard place on the issue of fracking, and also other issues like Gaza, too. She has all of her past statements, and the Biden-Harris administration record, which is against fracking and exports of liquefied natural gas,” Jon McHenry, a GOP polling analyst and vice president at North Star Opinion Research, told the DCNF. “And that’s great for her base supporters, the people who were upset about Joe Biden representing Democrats a couple weeks ago and are excited about Kamala Harris, who want her to ban fracking, and they’re excited to have a younger, more liberal candidate running for president.”

Two important considerations on this from Mein Kampf:

1)  If you are going to tell a lie, make it so big no one will doubt it.

2)  Once you start a lie, never back off for any reason.

These clearly describe the democrat strategy on global warming!  Will they, and she, back off?  NO!

Never! Liars gotta lie!

The killed the Keystone XL Pipeline.
Their EPA regulations almost bankrupted domestic refiners.
They won't allow pipelines under construction to be completed.
Their war against the American energy industry won't be complete until no more hydrocarbon molecules are extracted from American soil.
Global Climate Change is a war of extermination against American energy and American industry.

In the meantime, their latest wind turbine farm off Nantucket is polluting New England waters.  If wind energy is so damn clean, why are pieces of a failed wind turbine blade washing up on Nantucket beaches?

Considering they took the Obama 'War on Coal' to a new level of a 'War on Oil and Gas', too, there is no way I would believe her saying she didn't mean it.

Always take leftists at their most extreme stated position, maybe even a notch farther, because they might have been holding back a little on what they want to do given power.
