BUSTED: Kamala Harris uses teleprompter in a supposedly "IMPROMPTU" speaking engagement in Las Vegas

Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris was caught using a teleprompter while speaking at a supposedly "impromptu" event. The nature of the Town Hall event that was live broadcasted by the Spanish-language network Univision in Las Vegas is that candidates will have to speak without a script or guide while in a "question and answer" forum with an audience. They are undecided Latino voters. A copy of the video clip that was broadcast was shared on X by the handle Trump War Room. A camera angle initially showed her speaking in front of the people and then it was cut to a moving camera shot from her back, showing her audience and a teleprompter. She was saying: "Are you a Republican, are you a Democrat? The only question I ever ask is are you okay? And sadly we have seen over the last two weeks since Hurricane Helene…" Viewers were quick to spot that as the shot grew closer to Harris' back, the teleprompter with text moving and which seemed like feeding her information, immediately shut down. Former President Donald Trump's supporters turn to X to accuse Harris of being fraud and Univison of committing malpractice. "BUSTED!!" political activist Charlie Kirk proclaimed. "Kamala was just caught using a teleprompter at her Univision town hall! Producers panic and turn off the prompter midway through her answer. Why did Univision allow this?! This is egregious journalistic malpractice." "Univision accidentally broadcast proof that Kamala used a teleprompter at her town hall," commented YouTuber Benny Johnson. "Watch them panic when they realized they were showing the prompter live on-air." "Kamala has a teleprompter for this 'unscripted' town hall… They forgot to hide it by turning it off until it comes into plain view," remarked host and comedian Tim Young. "How in the hell do you use a teleprompter at a Town Hall?" asked Anita Broaddrick. "A Town Hall is supposed to be impromptu. Kamala is the biggest fraud to ever run for office. It's absolutely laughable." In response, Enrique Acevedo, the Spanish moderator of the said Town Hall dodged the accusations, claiming that the teleprompter feed was actually for him. "The prompter displayed my introduction (in Spanish) and then it switched to a timer. Any claim to the contrary is simply untrue," he said on X. The show producer, Daniel Coronell, supported Acevedo's claim. "That's not true. The teleprompter that displays a text written in Spanish was a support element for the town hall moderator," he tweeted. "I can tell you this with first-hand knowledge because I was in charge of the television program."

Jill Biden defends Harris from Trump's "false claims," while setting aside previous grudges held against the presidential nominee

According to a New York Times/Sienna, Trump is leading 51 percent to Harris' 46 percent in the Arizona state poll. Arizona is one of the most contested battlegrounds of the 2024 election and reports indicate that both campaigns are spending considerable resources in the Grand Canyon State. That is why in First Lady Jill Biden's first-ever campaign stop, she chose Arizona as she touted Harris' candidacy in two days' worth of events. She slammed Trump and dodged the "lies" about the vice president. "You're probably already hearing all sorts of lies about Kamala," she told an event in Yuma. Trump has accused Harris of lying about working at McDonalds as a teenager and has misrepresented the role she played in the Biden administration's work on border security. But Jill lauded Harris for her work in fighting crime as an attorney general and how she helped a friend in high school who lived in an abused situation. "That's the Kamala Harris I know, a quick, tough, compassionate, decisive leader and that's the kind of president you deserve, Arizona," she said.

Meanwhile, she repeatedly attacked Trump for his role in appointing Supreme Court justices who voted to overturn Roe vs. Wade, accusing the former POTUS’ abortion ban of taking away the ability for women to make their own health care decisions. "No one has to abandon their faith or their deeply held beliefs to agree that the government should not be telling women what to do with their bodies," she lamented. She also repeated some lines about Trump she used when she campaigned for President Joe Biden, switching them to work for Harris. "As President, Kamala Harris is going to fight for you. Donald Trump still wakes up every day thinking about one person: himself," she said, adding that if Trump wins again, he would lead the country into more chaos, greed and division. She also accused him of wanting to lower taxes for "rich guys like him, while costs are going up for everyone else." Early in the Biden administration, there were reports of hard feelings between Jill and Harris, indicating that the former was known to hold a grudge against the vice president. Jill was upset at Harris for an attack line in one of the early primary debates, targeting Joe Biden for his record on school busing in the 1960s as part of desegregation efforts. But those feelings appear to have been set aside for the Democrats' goal of winning the election. Head over to KamalaWatch.com for more stories related to this.
