“Amateur Hour” is an update of a similar report Moore and Decker produced in 2022, but this time they have focused on six of Harris’ economic and finance advisers and found they have a “disturbingly low level of business/finance background
In her one and only interview of the presidential campaign, Kamala Harris claimed she is “very proud” of the economy she and Joe Biden have presided over for almost four years.
Her rosy view of their management of inflation echoes Biden’s tone-deaf boasts about what a great job he’s done, while Americans struggle to pay for groceries.
“I’m very proud of the work that we have done that has brought inflation down to less than 3%,” Harris told CNN last week.
Considering they inherited an inflation rate of 1.4%, and their reckless spending propelled it to a peak of 9.1% in June 2022, that’s not exactly something to boast about.
Biden and Harris ignored warnings that the $1.9 trillion “American Rescue” spending package would overstimulate the economy at precisely the wrong time, just as we were emerging from pandemic lockdowns in March 2021.
Their reckless disregard of economic reality turbocharged consumption and drove inflation to 40-year highs.
But at least Harris had the sense not to declare Bidenomics a “success” when prompted to do so by interviewer Dana Bash.
“There’s more to do,” she admitted. “But that’s good work.”
What exactly that “good work” would entail is a mystery, considering Harris still doesn’t have a single policy on her website, refuses to do interviews like a normal candidate, and is relying on compliant journalists to walk back her most whacky ideas.
But what policies she has divulged so far are not promising: Soviet-style price controls to address food inflation — which she attributes to “price gouging” — and $25,000 handouts to first home buyers which will simply push up the price of real estate are two of her brain explosions.
In her embarrassingly brief CNN interview, to which she insisted on bringing wingman Tim Walz for emotional support, Harris muttered something vague about an “opportunity economy” being her “day one” priority.
But nobody has a clue what she means. One way of assessing how a Harris presidency would affect the economy is to look at the economic competence of her advisers and other administration personnel, many of whom are likely to play a role if she is elected.
Alarmingly, a new report titled “Amateur Hour” from the Committee to Unleash Prosperity shows that most of the administration’s top officials have zero experience in business.
Economists Stephen Moore and Jon Decker have analyzed the work records and résumés of the top 66 officials who deal with economic policy, regulation, commerce, energy and finance and found 58 percent have virtually no business experience.
That includes Biden, Harris and Vice Presidential nominee Walz, none of whom has worked off the public teat. (A dubious tale Harris once told about working at McDonald’s while in college doesn’t count.)
Moore and Decker found that the average business experience of administration appointees is only 3.1 years and the median years of business experience is a big fat zero.
“The vast majority of the Biden-Harris economic/commerce team members are professional politicians, lawyers, academics, community organizers, or government employees.”
Only 12% of Biden-Harris appointees have extensive business experience, defined as 10 or more years in the private sector.
“Amateur Hour” is an update of a similar report Moore and Decker produced in 2022, but this time they have focused on six of Harris’ economic and finance advisers and found they have a “disturbingly low level of business/finance background . . .
“The total number of years of business experience for these top six staffers was 14.
“They combined for an average of 2.3 years and, once again, the median was zero years.”
Only one of the top six Harris appointees, her chief of staff, Lorraine Voles, had extensive business experience and only two had any business experience at all.
The average business experience of Biden-Harris appointees is well behind the record of President Donald Trump’s cabinet officials during his last year in office, who had an average of 13 years of business experience.

Kamala’s Border Chaos: San Diego Sector Out of Control – Illegals Arriving from Jordan, China, and India
Joe Biden and Kamala’s America.
The San Diego sector of the southern border has seen many illegals coming into the United States, especially since Texas has taken action under Operation Lone Star, to secure their portion.
In one day alone this past Friday, the San Diego sector had 27 illegal aliens from Jordan, and 23 illegals from China, which were encountered by the Border Patrol. In addition, the day before that the Border Patrol encountered 94 illegals from India and 35 illegals from China. These statistics show that the Biden/Harris regime is still welcoming them from around the world.
The incentive in California is even greater considering the extremely leftist policies that are more friendly to illegals than to their own citizens. This past week, California State Senators voted to give illegal aliens home loans valued at $150,000 with no interest.
President Trump has been consistent with border security with his commitment to deport illegals and expand the wall.
Looking at Kamala’s radical border policies quickly reveal that she wants open borders and amnesty for millions of illegals. Hold on though, it’s election year so now the Vice President is talking like she wants to protect the border. Flip-Flop Kamala will say anything to help her campaign.
This is the real Kamala Harris.
Watch:
After all, Kamala is the “Border Czar.” The press has tried to erase that claim. Let’s take a look at that inconsistency. After Biden was forced out of the Presidential race, they quickly changed their tune.
