(DCNF)—Former Democratic National Committee fundraiser Lindy Li told podcaster Shawn Ryan Thursday that she didn’t understand why former Vice President Kamala Harris was prone to “endless word salads” in interviews.
Podcaster Joe Rogan called out the Harris campaign Tuesday, accusing it of lying about Harris’ failure to appear on his show during the 2024 presidential campaign. After Ryan described his failed efforts to land Harris for an interview, Li erupted.
“I don’t understand why it’s so hard for her to answer simple questions! I don’t understand why she has to do these endless word salads! Like, why is it so hard for you to be human? Just answer the question! You don’t have to talk in endless circles!” Lee said. “I just don’t get it, and I know her!”
“Like, when I talk to her she’s fine, but when she does these interviews she becomes like an android, you know what I mean?” Li added. “It’s like, like, Sean, you’re talking to me like a real full-blooded person. Why can’t she just be that? You know, we, we don’t want… a caricature as president. We want a human being that we can relate to.”
Harris and her running mate, Democratic Gov. Tim Walz of Minnesota, largely avoided interviews and press conferences after President Joe Biden announced he would not seek reelection July 21 before they started doing a media blitz in October. Harris also declined an invitation to attend the Al Smith Dinner in person, instead doing a video with former “Saturday Night Live” cast member Molly Shannon that was played at the charity event.
“There are several explanations,” Li said after Ryan asked why she thought Harris struggled during interviews. “Some people say that she’s just not that intelligent. It could be maybe she can’t think on her feet. Maybe she relies on talking points, but I have friends on her staff who tell me that she would get pissed at them for her own lack of preparation,” Li said. “She would yell, and she would get frustrated at them for her own inability to read the talking points and to internalize them.”

Ryan then aired an excerpt from an October “60 Minutes” interview Harris did, when she was questioned about the border by correspondent Bill Whitaker. CBS reportedly edited one of Harris’ responses to a question on the conflict between Israel and the radical Islamic terrorist group Hamas.
“Definitely didn’t seem quick on her feet, but I would still love to interview her and I’m glad Joe was able to set the record straight,” Ryan said.
“Yeah, and I’m here,” Li said.
“I will give you as many names as you need in order to make the interview happen, because I know her staff, and she will see the request. It’s just a matter of her willingness, you know, because she’s so afraid to fuck up.”

Independent Journalism Is Dying
Ever since President Trump’s miraculous victory, we’ve heard an incessant drumbeat about how legacy media is dying. This is true. The people have awakened to the reality that they’re being lied to by the self-proclaimed “Arbiters of Truth” for the sake of political expediency, corporate self-protection, and globalist ambitions.
But even as independent journalism rises to fill the void left by legacy media, there is still a huge challenge. Those at the top of independent media like Joe Rogan, Dan Bongino, and Tucker Carlson are thriving and rightly so. They have earned their audience and the financial rewards that come from it. They’ve taken risks and worked hard to get to where they are.
For “the rest of us,” legacy media and their proxies are making it exceptionally difficult to survive, let alone thrive. They still have a stranglehold over the “fact checkers” who have a dramatic impact on readership and viewership. YouTube, Facebook, and Google still stifle us. The freer speech platforms like Rumble and 𝕏 can only reward so many of their popular content creators. For independent journalists on the outside looking in, our only recourse is to rely on affiliates and sponsors.
But even as it seems nearly impossible to make a living, there are blessings that should not be disregarded. By highlighting strong sponsors who share our America First worldview, we have been able to make lifelong connections and even a bit of revenue to help us along. This is why we enjoy symbiotic relationships with companies like MyPillow, Jase Medical, and Promised Grounds. We help them with our recommendations and they reward us with money when our audience buys from them.
The same can be said about our preparedness sponsor, Prepper All-Naturals. Their long-term storage beef has a 25-year shelf life and is made with one ingredient: All-American Beef.
Even our faith-driven precious metals sponsor helps us tremendously while also helping Americans protect their life’s savings. We are blessed to work with them.
Independent media is the future. In many ways, that future is already here. While the phrase, “the more the merrier,” does not apply to this business because there are still some bad actors in the independent media field, there are many great ones that do not get nearly enough attention. We hope to change that one content creator at a time.
Thank you and God Bless,
