Why hasn’t Kamala Harris held a press conference yet? The answer isn’t what many in conservative media believe.
Yes, they’re repeating a variation of the Basement Biden playbook in 2020, but this isn’t because she’s just so horrible at answering questions. She IS horrible at taking questions, but that’s not the primary reason for avoiding the press. In fact, it’s only the third most important reason Democrats are playing Hide-the-Harris.
The second most important reason is that they want a starved media to focus on Donald Trump and J.D. Vance. With one side of the ballot mostly unavailable, corporate media is forced to look at Trump and Vance. And when corporate media looks at Trump, Vance, or any non-RINO Republicans, they instinctively paint them in a bad light.
The most important reason they want Harris and VP candidate Tim Walz away from media scrutiny is because they are leaning on unaccountable proxies. This is why they have Nancy Pelosi and other members of Congress embarrassing themselves on talk shows. It’s why they’re offering as much as $10,000 to social media influencers for a single video. It’s why they’re quick to drop nuggets on social media or through mini-press releases to let their corporate media puppets extrapolate the campaign message.
This is a campaign-by-surrogate. If Harris or Walz say something, they have to be held to account for it. If a surrogate says something, it wouldn’t matter how false it is. That’s THEIR opinion, not the official opinion of the campaign or the candidates.
In other words, staying away from reporters and letting proxies do all the work allows them to lie as much as they want about themselves, Donald Trump, J.D. Vance, and the state of the nation.
I discussed it during my Thursday show:
Here’s the news itself generated from corporate media reports…
Vice President Kamala Harris has not held a formal press conference since becoming the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee on July 21, when President Biden endorsed her and subsequently dropped out of the race. Despite her active campaigning and informal interactions with reporters, Harris has not engaged in a wide-ranging interview or press conference for 18 days.
Harris’s absence from the National Association of Black Journalists convention in Chicago, where former President Trump made headlines with his participation, has also been noted. Although she may attend the event in the future, her absence has drawn attention.
Recently, Harris announced Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate, but neither has faced formal questioning in interviews or press conferences. This has prompted criticism from Republican vice-presidential candidate JD Vance, who has urged the media to press Harris for answers.
During a press conference in Detroit, Vance called on reporters to hold Harris accountable and to stop giving her a “honeymoon” period. He emphasized the importance of Harris fulfilling her role as a presidential candidate by engaging with the press.
Critics have drawn comparisons to the “Biden basement” approach of 2020, where the president was accused of avoiding press conferences and public appearances. National Review senior writer Noah Rothman and NewsBusters executive editor Tim Graham have both called for Harris to hold a press conference, highlighting the importance of transparency and accountability in a presidential campaign.
DePauw University media studies professor Jeffrey McCall suggests that the Harris campaign may be following the Biden strategy of avoiding press conferences, given her perceived lack of confidence in unscripted settings and the support she enjoys from her base. McCall argues that while her supporters may not demand accountability, engaging with the press could help attract undecided voters and moderates.
As Harris continues her campaign, the pressure to hold a press conference and address questions from the media may intensify, especially as the election approaches.
Three Reasons a Coffee Gift Set From This Christian Company Is Perfect for Christmas
When you’re searching for a Christmas gift that’s meaningful, useful, and rooted in faith, you don’t want to settle for anything generic. This season is filled with noise — mass-produced products, last-minute picks, and trends that fade as quickly as they appear. But one gift stands apart because it blends genuine quality with a message that matters: a coffee gift set from Promised Grounds Coffee.
This small Christian-owned company has become a favorite among believers who want to support faith-driven businesses while giving friends and family something they’ll actually enjoy. Here are three reasons a Promised Grounds Coffee gift set may be the most thoughtful and impactful present you give this year.
1. It’s Truly Delicious Coffee
Too many “gift-worthy” coffees look beautiful in the package but disappoint when the cup is poured. Promised Grounds takes the opposite approach — exceptional taste first, thoughtful presentation second.
Their beans are sourced with care, roasted in small batches, and crafted to bring out a rich, smooth flavor profile that appeals to both casual drinkers and true coffee lovers. Whether someone enjoys bold, dark roasts or lighter, more delicate blends, every sip reflects quality that stands shoulder-to-shoulder with the biggest specialty brands.
Simply put: this coffee is good. Really good. Some say it’s absolutely fantastic. If you want a gift that won’t be re-gifted, ignored, or shoved in a cabinet, this is it.
2. It Spreads the Word While Serving a Real Purpose
There are many Christian gifts that are meaningful… but not exactly practical. There are also useful gifts that have nothing to do with faith. Promised Grounds Coffee bridges both worlds beautifully.
Each gift set delivers an encouraging, faith-centered message through its packaging and presentation — a simple but powerful reminder of God’s goodness during the Christmas season. The cups are especially popular and serve as a daily reminder of the blessings from our Lord. At the same time, the product itself is something people will actually use and appreciate every single day.
It’s a gift that uplifts the spirit and fills the mug. A gift that points loved ones toward Scripture while still being part of the normal rhythm of life. And in a culture that increasingly pushes faith to the margins, giving a gift that quietly but confidently honors Christ can make a deeper impact than you might expect.
3. It’s Affordable, Valuable, and Elegantly Presented
Many people want to give something meaningful without breaking their Christmas budget. Promised Grounds Coffee strikes that perfect balance — the sets look and feel premium, but the price remains accessible.
The packaging is classy, clean, and gift-ready, making it ideal for:
- Family members of all ages
- Co-workers or employees
- Church friends or small-group leaders
- Hosts, neighbors, and last-minute gift needs
It’s the kind of gift that feels more expensive than it is — and more thoughtful than most of what you’ll find on store shelves.
The Perfect Blend of Faith, Flavor, and Christmas Cheer
A coffee gift set from Promised Grounds Coffee checks every box: a gift that tastes amazing, conveys your faith, supports a Christian business, and brings daily enjoyment to the person who receives it. In a season when so many gifts are forgotten, this one stands out for all the right reasons.
If you want a Christmas present that reflects your values and delivers genuine joy, Promised Grounds Coffee is the perfect place to start.
