Kamala Harris, the Vice President known for her ability to stumble through speeches, recently attempted to merge politics with piety during a sermon at a Pennsylvania church. Speaking at the Church of Christian Compassion in West Philadelphia, she declared that God expects citizens to “help Him” by casting their votes in favor of her agenda. If this sounds like a divine mandate for voting Democrat, it’s because it most certainly is.
With just nine days until the elections, Harris laid out what she perceives as a monumental opportunity for Americans to shape the future. In her peculiar mix of spirituality and political strategy, she insisted that the faithful have a duty to participate in democracy, apparently equating hitting the polls with answering a higher calling. It raises the question: does she believe God needs help from the progressive agenda? If so, that would certainly make the Almighty sound a lot like someone on a last-ditch fundraising call.

During her passionate pronouncement, Harris tried to invoke the Apostle Paul, claiming he spoke about the “power of the people.” While it’s debatable whether her interpretation truly aligns with biblical teachings, it’s clear her getaway for spiritual endorsement of her campaign strategy quickly ran into a wall. The Vice President’s speech was soon interrupted by a heckler in the audience, perhaps someone who had already caught wind of the rising tension between God’s commandments and Harris’s policies—especially concerning the sanctity of life.
As piano music swelled to cover the heckler’s voice, Harris tried to brush off the disruption by emphasizing the importance of democracy and every individual’s voice. Yet, social media users who caught the moment had a field day, highlighting her apparent lack of control over the crowd. Many noted that she seemed to be well on her way to becoming the woman everybody loves to boo—or heckle. Far from the divine protector of democracy she claimed to be, Harris has become the poster child for political flops.
SCOOP:
Just spoke w/ the 2 Lacrosse University students,
who were kicked out of Kamala’s Wisconsin rally for saying, “Jesus is Lord.”
It’s real — it’s corroborated.

Her recent antics also include a rather misguided dig at pro-life protesters at another rally in Wisconsin. When they shouted pro-Christian sentiments, Harris, instead of embracing their views, suggested they were at the wrong event. If there’s one thing that has become clear, it’s that she is not a fan of constructive dialogue—especially when it pertains to values that conflict with her party’s agenda. It seems the Vice President is picking and choosing the kind of faith she supports, conveniently forgetting that many Americans believe their faith and moral compass touch deeply upon issues like life and family.
With such theatrics and a clear gap in public approval, it looks as though Harris’s campaign may need divine intervention of its own. Whether the American electorate agrees with her notion that voting blue is part of their spiritual duty is still up in the air, but it is certain that this has been one for the comedic books. If Harris keeps this up, she might just find herself needing more than just a good campaign strategy—she might suddenly become the punchline of a divine joke.
