VP Harris recently declared that the poor ole women's basketball teams in the NCAA tourney were not allowed to have brackets until a couple of years ago. She assured us this was a "bit of a history lesson."

"Do you know — OK, a bit of a history lesson — do you know that the women’s teams were not allowed to have brackets until 2022?"

Turns out she was only off by about forty years. The women's national tourney started in 82. I wonder how she thinks the tournament was organized during those 40 years without brackets. Does she think they just used a coin toss?

Vice President Kamala Harris wrongly claims NCAA women's tournament was excluded from brackets until 2022

Maybe she can fix that when she becomes the Grievances czar

Daily Mail Online on X: "From border to bare feet czar? Kamala Harris says she has 'had it' with people who take their shoes off on flights: Cackling VP says we need a 'Department of Grievances' to deal with weird plane passengers https://t.co/lmuCFs1eww https://t.co/xpfrkxnpWE" / X (twitter.com)

They had to give her something new now that she has that southern border thingie under control.

Not to be outdone, Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, evidently the resident science expert in Congress, told a group of no-doubt incredulous high school students the following.

"You’ve heard the word ‘full moon,’ Sometimes, you need to take the opportunity just to come out and see a full moon is that complete-rounded circle, which is made up mostly of gases. And that’s why the question is: Why or how could we as humans live on the moon? Are the gases such that we could do that?"

She went on to detail the stunning news that, "The sun is a mighty powerful heat, but it’s almost impossible to go near the sun. The moon is more manageable."

And then there was this perplexing explanation of a total solar eclipse. "What you will see today will be the closest distance that the moon has ever been in the last 20 years, which means that’s why they will shut the light down, because they will be close to the Earth, which is an amazing experience," Jackson Lee said in a live video clip posted to her X account. "You will be able to tell because there will be complete darkness."

She concluded by making what was, I suppose, an official federal announcement that the moon is now considered to be a planet. "That’s another planet which we’re going to see shortly."

Not willing to simply accept responsibility for her ignorance, she then decided it all had to be someone else's fault. On X she claimed, "Obviously I misspoke and meant to say the sun, but as usual, Republicans are focused on stupid things instead of stuff that really matters." Except that her claim is "obviously" untrue.

It bears repeating. If you let someone talk long enough, you'll find out some things.

Sheila did you know the moon is actually more useful than the sun, since the moon gives us light at night, when it's dark. The sun only gives us light in the day, when it's already bright.

Sounds like an AOC original!! Alas, it seems to be original to no one.

There's a bunch of them . A Green Party NJ Senate candidate blamed the recent earthquake there on climate change,


She later deleted her Twitter X post

Rep. Lee, not content with demonstrating her ignorance of science, has decided to add lying to her list of offenses. Now bear in mind that she was once the leader of the House Science Committee’s space subcommittee. How scary is that?

At any rate, in her attempt to make someone else look foolish, she clearly either lied or has become unspeakably confused. After saying, "Sometimes, you need to take the opportunity just to come out and see a full moon is that complete rounded circle which is made up mostly of gases, and that’s why the question is why or how could we as humans live on the Moon? Are the gases such that we could do that," she is now contending that she misspoke and was actually speaking of the sun. Really? Then she was asking about the feasibility of "we as humans" being able to live on the SUN???

And yet again, if you let a person speak long enough, the truth will come out.
