In a twist that could only be described as “politics as usual,” the once reliable GovTrack, known for its supposedly unbiased data on U.S. legislators, has found itself caught up in a scandal that makes a circus look dignified. This beloved site, which many relied upon for its impartial tracking of congressional activities, has reportedly sanitized the voting history of Vice President Kamala Harris, making her appear less left-leaning than she has always been. The timing couldn’t be more convenient as she ramps up her 2024 campaign efforts.
Harris, who has a long history of championing liberal policies during her tenure as a senator from California, had previously enjoyed the infamous title of the “most left-leaning senator” according to the untainted annals of GovTrack. However, in a questionable move worthy of a reality show, those records have mysteriously vanished faster than a magician’s rabbit. This peculiar editing of history appears to be a concerted effort to help polish her public persona as she prepares for yet another attempt at securing the presidency—because who could forget her stellar track record the first time around?
BREAKING: GovTrack just DELETED their 2019 page that ranked Kamala Harris as THE MOST LIBERAL of all 100 Senators

Not to be outdone, Axios—a news outlet that seems to have taken a masterclass in gaslighting—recently announced that Harris was never labeled as Biden’s “border czar.” This revelation, which some might term “newspeak,” contradicts the multitude of statements made by the Biden administration itself. Axios did acknowledge its past blunders but conveniently omitted a full admission of their previous inaccuracies. It seems that airbrushing political history is becoming a trend among the elite media and their allies in the Democratic party.
As the campaign trail heats up, the desperate attempts to reinvent Harris’s image become ever more transparent. Before her selection as Biden’s running mate, she was leveraging her role as a senator to position herself for higher office. While her confrontations in Senate hearings garnered attention, the realities of her inconsistent policies and public statements could not be hidden forever. Those promises made under the bright lights of debate stages now seem to have been little more than shiny veneers plastered over deeper cracks in her platform.
With all eyes on the Democratic National Convention set for August, Biden is gearing up to not-so-subtly assure party loyalists of his support for Harris. Meanwhile, in a move that will surely add spice to the electoral cocktail, the Trump campaign is throwing a wrench into the works by reporting Harris’s fundraising strategies to the Federal Election Commission. They assert that the funds raised for Biden’s campaign should not be funneled into Harris’s coffers—an argument reminiscent of a political game of Monopoly, where the rules only seem to favor one player at a time. As the saga continues, it’s clear that American voters will be wise to keep their eyes peeled as this election cycle unfolds.
