MICHAEL KNOWLES (HOST): It's been 26 days since Kamala Harris became the presumptive Democrat nominee for president and she still has not given an on camera interview with even a liberal journalist. But she did recently film a conversation with her running mate, Tim Walz. And they tackle the big issues, like whether or not Tim Walz seasons his food.

...

Tim, you bland honky. You probably eat a tub of mayo for every meal. That's right, Kamala. For special occasions, I spread it out a piece of Melba toast.

This would be the equivalent of Biden filming a bit in 2020 asking Kamala how often she scarfed down watermelon and fried chicken. Or really, if we were to be precise in Kamala's case, it would be chutney and conch fritters or something like that. If we really wanted to make the race routine as accurate as possible.

In any case, the whole thing, this whole conversation is obviously contrived and ridiculous. But that became especially clear after internet sleuths dug up an actual Tim Walz taco recipe just a couple years ago. The fact that this exists, that they do this bit, and there really should be no way to fact-check how Tim Walz makes his tacos, but we can because two years ago he posted his personal taco recipe. I guess it won some award in the newspaper. And this is what he wrote. He said, I don't know people, I make a pretty mean hotdish. Check out my award-winning recipe for turkey taco tot hot dish here. And then you click on the link and you discover that Tim Walz's taco dish includes paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, and chili powder. That is four separate spices.

Now this is all extremely stupid, but it is significant. Not only is Kamala lying about her entire political career and Walz lying about his military service. These people are so reflexively dishonest, they even need to lie about how they cook their tacos.
