Harris Doubles Down on Biden’s Doubt About Legitimacy of 2022 Elections (VIDEO)

Vice President Kamala Harris doubled down Thursday on President Biden’s eyebrow-raising comments questioning the legitimacy of the 2022 midterm elections if Democrats are unable to pass election reform measures in Congress.

In an interview on NBC’s “Today,” host Savannah Guthrie said it was “astonishing to hear Biden’s remarks about the ability to hold “free and fair elections” this November.

“The president has been consistent on this issue,” Harris said, noting Senate Democrats’ failure to approve the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act and the Freedom to Vote Act Wednesday evening as she affirmed Biden’s comments.

Democrats contend the measures are needed to counter legislation passed by Republican-led states that include provisions regulating early voting and mail-in balloting.

With the two pieces of legislation blocked by Senate Republicans, Guthrie asked Harris what effect their absence would have on the midterm elections. (Read more from “Harris Doubles Down on Biden’s Doubt About Legitimacy of 2022 Elections” HERE)

Biden Says His 2024 Running Mate Will Be Kamala Harris

President Joe Biden on Wednesday committed to Vice President Kamala Harris as his running mate in 2024 when he runs for reelection.

“Yes and yes,” Biden responded during his first news conference of the year when a reporter asked whether Harris would be on his ticket and whether he thought she was doing a good job on voting rights policies. . .

“She’s going to be my running mate, number one,” he said. “And number two, I did put her in charge. I think she’s doing a good job.”

The vice president has been assigned to facilitate policy solutions on pivotal topics such as voting rights, immigration and border security, yet the lack of political movement on those issues has earned Harris criticism from both Republicans and Democrats.

Another Top Staffer for Kamala Harris Escapes Vice President

Normally when an administration is fired by voters, it doesn’t take long for staff members to join the job market and leave.

Well there’s been no firing yet, but those departures already are happening in Kamala Harris’ office.

The Daily Wire reports that now a third aide to the vice president has exited.

That would be Vincent Evans, her deputy director of public engagement and intergovernmental affairs, who left to join the Congressional Black Caucus, a move the Daily Wire described as “certainly” “less than a lateral move.” . . .

Another, anonymous, staff member told the Washington Post only a few weeks ago, “With Kamala, you have to put up with a constant amount of soul-destroying criticism and also her own lack of confidence. So you’re constantly sort of propping up a bully and it’s not really clear why.” (Read more from “Another Top Staffer for Kamala Harris Escapes Vice President” HERE)

Harris Mocked for ‘Moving Again’ Tweet During I-95 Traffic Jam

Twitter pounced on Vice President Kamala Harris after she tweeted about the US “moving again” as hundreds of people were stranded on Interstate 95 in Virginia.

A tweet Tuesday from Harris’ official VP account praised the recently passed $1.2 trillion infrastructure spending package. At the same time, a snowstorm walloped the region, causing a tractor-trailer pileup that had people stuck in the cars on I-95 overnight.

“Because of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, America is moving again,” Harris’ tweet said. “That’s what infrastructure is all about: getting people moving.”

“Well, except for I-95 in VA,” one Twitter user wrote, echoing a common snarky response from commenters.

“Out of all the days to say this, today is the funniest,” another said. (Read more from “Harris Mocked for ‘Moving Again’ Tweet During I-95 Traffic Jam” HERE)

Report: Harris Complains to Allies Her Race and Gender Impact Her Media Coverage

Vice President Kamala Harris is grumbling behind the scenes about negative news coverage and low morale in the White House, where she believes she’s being treated differently due to her race and gender, according to a report.

Harris, the first woman and first person of color to hold the nation’s second-highest office, has “privately” told allies she believes she’d get better media coverage if she were white and male like her 48 predecessors, the New York Times reported Thursday.

Harris has even turned to prominent political names like Hillary Clinton — the first female Democratic presidential nominee — to determine her next moves, according to the report.

“There is a double standard; it’s sadly alive and well,” Clinton told the newspaper. “A lot of what is being used to judge her, just like it was to judge me, or the women who ran in 2020, or everybody else, is really colored by that.”

Clinton, who speaks to Harris every few months on the phone, visited the vice president in her West Wing office in November, the Times reported. (Read more from “Report: Harris Complains to Allies Her Race and Gender Impact Her Media Coverage” HERE)

Switching Sides: Harris Reveals She Doesn’t See Eye to Eye With Biden Regarding Key Issue

Vice President Kamala Harris refused to blame the unvaccinated for the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, a noticeably different stance than has been taken by President Biden.

“I don’t think this is a moment to talk about fault,” Harris said during an interview with CBS when pressed on the matter. “It is no one’s fault that this virus hit our shores or hit the world. … It is more about individual power and responsibility and the decisions that everyone has the choice to make.”

Biden has taken a less forgiving stance toward unvaccinated Americans.

“This is a pandemic of the unvaccinated,” Biden said in a September address to the nation. “And it’s caused by the fact that despite America having an unprecedented and successful vaccination program, despite the fact that for almost five months free vaccines have been available in 80,000 different locations, we still have nearly 80 million Americans who have failed to get the shot.”

While Harris may not be willing to blame the unvaccinated for the continued spread of the virus, she did make clear that the best thing people can do to protect themselves is to get their vaccine or a booster.

Kamala Harris: ‘Women Will Die’ if SCOTUS Strikes Down Abortion Rights

Vice President Kamala Harris said in an interview that “women will die” if the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) overturns landmark ruling Roe v. Wade. Currently, the Court is weighing a case, Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which pertains to a 15-week abortion ban in Mississippi. The outcome of Dobbs could have direct implications on Roe.

In an interview published Sunday with the San Francisco Chronicle, Harris said that efforts for SCOTUS to curtail abortion could result in women dying, adding that she’s not “alarmist” or “extreme” by suggesting that.

“I don’t mean to sound alarmist, I mean this: Women will die,” Harris said in the interview.

“I’m very concerned about it,” she continued. “Women will die. In particular, women who don’t have economic resources and can’t then travel to places or somehow have access to safe reproductive health care, including abortion.”

“It is not an extreme statement, it is a fact,” Harris added. (Read more from “Kamala Harris: ‘Women Will Die’ if SCOTUS Strikes Down Abortion Rights” HERE)

Public Display of Deflection: Is Anyone Buying This Ridiculous Kamala and Pete Show?

Did you see that hug between Wonder Boy President in Waiting Pete Buttigieg and Back Off Little Man I’m Boss Lady of This House Kamala Harris? I’ve seen leprous porcupines get closer together for a hug. Harris and Buttigieg could have danced like that at a Catholic high school in 1957 and the chaperone would have said, “I’ll allow it. If anything, there’s room for two Holy Spirits in between.”

H and B managed to hug while looking like they wished they were in two different time zones, just as their political fortunes are going in completely different directions: Buttigieg is maybe even a little ahead of schedule in the ruthless mega-map to the presidency he probably devised when he was drinking chocolate milk in kindergarten eight or nine years ago, while Harris is looking like the first sitting vice president who will ever cackle her way to political oblivion.

What was the purpose of this little awkward-as-small-town-community-theater scene? Well, Madame Vice and the Transportation Kid were out to display to the public the fact that they totally aren’t fighting even though every other day a leak appears in the Swamptown Gazette about how Democrats are scrambling to offload her somewhere before she becomes their next presidential nominee. Don’t be surprised if she is sent on an urgent diplomatic fact-finding mission to, say, Jupiter.

Meanwhile, Team Buttigieg is playing him up as the logical heir to the Biden throne. What if, they ask, you had a presidential candidate who was actually a bright, smooth talker, with many coats of slick Harvard management consultant polish instead of a habit of breaking down into deranged laughter whenever he gets a tough question? Wouldn’t First Gay President be almost as exciting as having a woman in the top job? America may be ready for a woman president, but not this extremely odd woman in the dung-colored pantsuits.

No Soup for You: Biden Gives Harris Cold Shoulder at DC Kitchen After Reported Tensions

President Biden seemed to snub Vice President Kamala Harris Tuesday as they helped prepare meals at a DC soup kitchen during their first public appearance together in more than a week.

Biden made no attempt to demonstrate any fondness for his VP in front of the cameras after Harris allies slammed Biden to CNN last week for giving her tough jobs, such as handling the border crisis, and accused the West Wing of giving her less support than white members of the administration.

When asked by a reporter what he was grateful for, Biden put an arm around DC Central Kitchen chef Dawain Arrington — who was standing to the president’s left with Harris at Biden’s right — and said, “The people I’m standing next to are what I’m thankful for. He got up. He was knocked down, but he got up.”

Moments earlier, first lady Jill Biden directed Harris to a spot next to her husband, but the president didn’t appear to greet his second-in-command. . .

Press pool microphones didn’t capture any words between Biden and Harris and the president seemed to ignore the veep and return immediately to his conversation with Arrington as he placed turkey on trays.

Kamala Harris Comms Director Leaving in Aftermath of Reported Biden Rift

Vice President Kamala Harris’ communications director is leaving her post as the veep’s office and White House battle tanking poll numbers and leaks detailing frustration among Harris allies.

Vanity Fair was first to report the departure of Ashley Etienne, while multiple outlets cited a White House official in reporting that her resignation would take effect next month.

The official said that Etienne was leaving the administration to “pursue other opportunities,” but did not elaborate.

The departure of Etienne — a former Biden campaign adviser who has also been a spokesperson for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) — comes days after CNN reported that Harris has been increasingly sidelined in the administration and her working relationship with President Biden has become an “exhausted stalemate.”

On Thursday, Harris attempted to dispel the report, denying to ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos that she felt, as the anchor put it, “misused or underused.” (Read more from “Kamala Harris Comms Director Leaving in Aftermath of Reported Biden Rift” HERE)
