The following Op-Ed was written and submitted by Paul Plante.
And going back to the Transcript of the exchange between Bill Whitaker of CBS’ 60 Minutes and Biden Vice President Kamala Harris that none of you out there who watched 60 Minutes on CBS on October 7, 2024 actually saw on 60 Minutes, because for reasons as of yet unknown, CBS edited the exchange out of the film which was aired on October 7, 2024, and only appeared afterwards on something called Overtime on CBS, we have Kamala Harris futilely attempting to hornswoggle and gaslight us in response to the critical question which did not make the cut to be broadcast on 60 Minutes, that question being “Was democracy best served by President Biden stepping down and basically handing you (Kamala Harris) a nomination,” to wit:
HARRIS: President Biden made a decision that I think history is going to show is rare among leaders, which was to put country before self.

What I think history is going to show is a Wall Street Journal titled “Opinion | Kamala Harris Tries to Forget Joe Biden” by Gerard Baker on 21 August 2024, where we have as follows on the subject of Joe Biden allegedly putting country before self, which proposition in the face of reality, is just plain ludicrous, to wit:
Thank you, Joe.
Don’t let the door hit you on the way out.
There is something impressively Stalinist about the way the Democratic Party is erasing the Biden presidency.
As I write, delegates to the party’s convention in Chicago are preparing to give a tearful send-off to the president as he makes his reluctant valediction Monday night.
Exactly one month ago these same delegates were primed to wave their Biden-Harris signs, chant “Four more years,” and spend four days extolling the 46th president’s many successes.
Now, but for the brief twilight moment he has been allotted on the first night, they come to bury Biden, not to praise him — though the Caesar analogy isn’t quite right.
As a Democratic source put it to me recently, the ruthless despatch of the former president was less Brutus and Cassius and more Jack Kevorkian — not a hail of knives in the back but a soft word in the ear, a gentle squeeze on the syringe, and farewell, my lovely.
Having been an active participant in the assisted suicide of his presidency, the party has decided that if it is going to have any chance of winning it is going to have to euthanize Mr. Biden’s record and legacy too.

That story puts quite a different spin on things than the spin Kamala was trying to put on things on 60 Minutes on October 7, 2024, as does this story from the Daily Mail titled “Biden’s fury at being ‘overthrown’ by Kamala threatens her campaign” by Katelyn Caralle, Senior U.S. Political Reporter In Washington, D.C. on 14 October 2024, to wit:
President Joe Biden’s relationship with his No. 2 has soured ever since she replaced him at the top of the Democrat’s 2024 presidential ticket.
Vice President Kamala Harris’ team has experienced increased tension with Biden’s staff, nearly a dozen people familiar with the situation detailed to Axios in a new report.
While aides say that Biden and his team want Harris to win in November, many have lingering bruises from the president being pushed out of his reelection bid.
‘They’re too much in their feelings,’ a Harris ally said of Biden’s team.
Even Republican former President Donald Trump sees the rift in the White House.
‘He can’t stand her for one simple reason, she overthrew him,’ Trump said of the relationship between Biden and Harris.
‘But she didn’t do it, the party did,’ he told Fox News host Maria Bartiromo on Sunday.
‘It was really a coup.”
“I mean, he’s a very angry guy.”
Biden faced a slew of pressure from his party to drop out his reelection campaign after his disastrous debate performance against Trump in June.
For about a month, the president pushed back on the pressure, claiming he intended to see it through to November.
But on July 21, Biden announced on X he was ending his bid and endorsed his No. 2 to take over the campaign.

So old Joe made a decision that Kamala Harris thinks history is going to show is rare among leaders, which was to put country before self?
I’m not seeing that myself, especially if we go to a Newsweek article titled “The Collapse of Kamala Harris | Opinion” by Josh Hammer on 19 October 2024, where we have this truth of the matter to deal with, to wit:
On July 26, in the aftermath of the Democratic Party’s ruthless midsummer coup of their own democratically elected presidential nominee, this column predicted that the elevation of dimwitted cackler-in-chief Kamala Harris to the party’s presidential slot would “spectacularly backfire.”
Harris has recently been engaging in what the psychology profession calls “projection,” ludicrously criticizing Donald Trump for avoiding the media when it was actually Harris who infamously avoided a single one-on-one sit-down interview for weeks on end following the Biden coup.

The Democratic Party’s ruthless midsummer coup of their own democratically elected presidential nominee!
Sounds quite a bit different than Joe Biden made a decision that Kamala Harris thinks history is going to show is rare among leaders, which was to put country before self!
Joe Biden no more put country before self than did South Vietnamese President Ngo Dinh Diem on November 2, 1963 when he was overthrown in a US CIA-backed COUP, removed from power and assassinated by the South Vietnamese Army he was Commander-in-Chief of.
UN-DEMOCRACY, people – the day DEMOCRACY died in America with America’s first successful COUP!
And her answer to Bill Whitaker of CBS’ 60 Minutes on October 7, 2024 that Joe Biden put country before self when the Democrats ruthlessly removed him from power and put Kamala Harris in his place makes Kamala Harris look like an ignorant fool who is an ignorant fool precisely because she thinks we are all stupid and couldn’t possibly know the difference and that she can gaslight us and feed us a line of pure bull**** regarding Joe Biden’s terminated presidential campaign and her own rise to power as the Democrat presidential contender.
And that, folks, is the news!
