Speaking with Judge Jeanine Pirro on Saturday, counselor to the President Kellyanne Conway suggested Sen. Kamala Harris has “nothing substantive to offer.”

Her remarks came after Pirro’s fiery opening statement slamming Harris for her line of questioning during a Congressional hearing that implied a connection between the KKK and ICE.

Asked about Harris and her controversial claims, Conway replied: “This is what happens when people have absolutely nothing substantive to offer aspirationally for their 2020 campaign. They can’t seem to figure out how to defeat Donald Trump…So they try to do it by having these viral moments, trying to embarrass and harass and harangue people under oath.” She added: “What really galls me is, she doesn’t even source…Source it, darn it.”

Conway then said she didn’t want to spend too much time on Harris because “I work for the president of the United States who like the vice president, Mike Pence, are the only two people guaranteed to be on the ballot in 2020 and the only ones truly still focused on 2018.”

Then, after Conway insisted people got enough of Harris during the Brett Kavanaugh hearings, Pirro jumped to say Harris’ “job is to trash anyone who is part of the administration” before moving on.

7. I wonder if her husband is as honest about her as he is about the president?

I can't imagine he answered the question "How do I look George?", very honestly that day.

8. from the transcript-sourse IS Director of ICE- Vitiellos own words about KKK

Harris grilled Ronald Vitiello, the acting director of ICE, if he is aware of the "perception" of similarities between ICE and the KKK. The Senator later asked Vitiello how he could run a government agency and be unaware of how it is "perceived" by "certain communities."

SEN. KAMALA HARRIS: Thank you Mr. Chairman, and I’d like to emphasize your point. This is a hearing to determine who will be the next head of ICE, so this is about reviewing the perspectives, the qualifications, and the experience of the nominee. So, that being said, I think, Mr. Vitellio [sic], that you would agr- -- have I pronounced your name correctly?

RONALD VITIELLO: Vitiello [pronounced “Vitello”].

HARRIS: Vitiello.

VITIELLO: Thank you.

HARRIS: I think you would agree as a member of law enforcement that law enforcement generally speaking —and certainly it would be the case with ICE officers and agents — that a great deal of your power is discretionary. You have limited resources and you make decisions about what you’re gonna do, but you exercise a great deal of discretion in terms of how you are going to use the limited resources and how you are gonna prioritize them.

And then, understanding that, I think you would also agree that one’s perspective and their bias, if they have bias, will influence their exercise of discretion in terms of the power they have and how it will be used and implemented. So I want to return to the question that Senator Peters asked you about the statement you made describing the Democratic Party as “liberalcratic” or “NeoKlanist,” which was -- I think the assumption there was that you were comparing it to the Klu, Ku Klux Klan -- Klu [sic] Klux Klan, the KKK. So, you said in response to his question, you’re sorry because the words caused offense. So, would you not be sorry if no one was offended by your words?

VITIELLO: No, it was wrong to do.

HARRIS: Why was it wrong?

VITIELLO: Because those are offensive words.

HARRIS: Why are they offensive?

VITIELLO: Because they have history in this country and, and -- I, I honestly didn’t mean it that way.

HARRIS: But please talk about the history. What is the history that would then make those words wrong?

VITIELLO: Well, the Klan was what we would call today a domestic terrorist group.

HARRIS: Why? Why would we call them “domestic terrorist group” [sic]?

VITIELLO: ‘Cause they tried to use fear and force to change political environment [sic].

HARRIS: And what was the motivation for the use of fear and force?

VITIELLO: It was based on race and ethnicity.

HARRIS: Right. Are you aware of the perception of many about how the power and the discretion at ICE is being used to enforce the laws? And do you see any parallels?

10. who gives a f**k what Conway's opinion is? We have a person who has no problem working for a racist

sexist, bigot, which speaks volumes about Conway

12. Shut the heck up Conway

You have nothing substantive to offer, Miss Alternative facts. Furthermore Dump and his Stooge aren't guaranteed to be on the ballot in 2020. He can be primaried. He can be impeached, charged and removed or resign and take his stooge down with him.
