from Williamson article above :

"Harris is an identity-politics operator who has been given a portfolio that is not amenable to being filtered through that lens. Getting control of the border will take a complex effort demanding expertise in everything from national security and intelligence, to law and law enforcement, to diplomacy, to practical commercial considerations, and, in some cases, construction and engineering.

If you are wondering how in the world anybody ever thought that a mediocre lawyer and political hack such as Kamala Harris was going to master all that and actually do something about our lawless border, the answer is obvious."

Some good opinions.   except I totally disagree with the above .
Democrats know how to block the border.  Every time I hear some pundit say they have to figure it out I cringe.

Biden or Harris - all they would have to do is give a nod - and it would be carried out.

Look at how fast they work when the political fall out is fast and furious.
Fly thousands out of Kubal to fulfill Biden's idiotic promise to the Taliban and images of people falling off planes hurt the Democrat Party

Or how fast they cleared the masses on the border in Del Rio - when the images were hurting them in the polls.   Only to make it their endeavor to flout the law even faster and ship them into the interior (their goal all along )

Within a week they could block the border and turn things around.

Where is Kamala?

VP maintains low-profile in order to boost her image

By Kelly Sadler

As the southern border crisis rages, the Taliban regain control of Afghanistan, Dr. Anthony Fauci declaring Christmas may have to be canceled because of the COVID-19 pandemic, Democrats infighting over a $3.5 trillion social welfare bill, inflation spiking, supply-chains disrupted, and the U.S. possibly breaching its debt limit, our vice president Kamala Harris is MIA.

On Friday, Ms. Harris took a stealth trip to Palm Springs, California, with the White House not disclosing the reason for her non-public visit. The following day she was gone. The trip confused some Biden allies, who have wondered why the former Senator hasn’t been more present in President Joe Biden’s effort to pass his embattled welfare bill on Capitol Hill.

On Sunday, Ms. Harris and her husband Doug Emhoff were pictured power walking in Washington, D.C. There was nothing on her public schedule all weekend long.

It’s not that Ms. Harris doesn’t have several high-profile tasks. She’s been put in charge of addressing the origins of the southern border migrant surge, expanding voting rights, increasing broadband access, addressing Black maternal mortality, racial inequality, promoting women in the workforce, and is the leader of the Space Council.

No visible progress has been made on any of it. In terms of the Southern Border, things have worsened after Ms. Harris’ trip there in June and the Northern Triangle countries in May. This month, as many as 400,000 migrants could cross the border, nearly doubling the 21-year record reached in July under the Biden administration.

Ms. Harris has been keeping a low public profile, but when she does engage with the press, it’s often to a disastrous effect. Last month, she appeared for only about 10 minutes on ABC’s “The View” after two co-hosts tested positive for

coronavirus moments before her interview and had to be escorted off the set.

During her brief appearance, she said, “we’ve got to do more” to support the Haitian community, without further details. Regarding the botched Afghanistan withdrawal, Ms. Harris said every day she receives classified briefings about the hotspots around the world and threats to our national security, and the “United States has an obligation, and we as leaders have an obligation to appreciate that we are a global leader.” It was another non-answer.

Every time Ms. Harris opens her mouth, politically correct, vapid words come pouring out. Last week, when visiting a college, Ms. Harris didn’t push back against a student who accused Israel of committing “ethnic genocide.” Instead, Ms. Harris responded: “This is about the fact that your voice, your perspective, your experience, your truth cannot be suppressed, and it must be heard.”

Ms. Harris was immediately criticized, as many widely interpreted her comments as agreeing with the student’s characterization of Israel. No, it was just Ms. Harris trying her best to be woke and popular, using progressive buzzwords without thinking them through. Her team immediately had to go into damage control, reaching out to Democratic Majority for Israel, a prominent advocacy group, the next day, to “shore up relations with the pro-Israel organization,” according to Politico.

That seems to be the only thing Ms. Harris and her team seem concerned about: Cleaning up her self-inflicted messes and improving her image.

After her disastrous interview with NBC’s Lester Holt in June, where she defended not visiting the southern border, saying she didn’t understand the question and “I haven’t been to Europe either,” and a Politico story detailing “low morale, porous lines of communication and diminished trust among aides and senior officials” within her office, she hired two veteran crisis communication experts in August.

So far, their strategy seems to be to keep her out of the limelight and let President Joe Biden manage the multiple crises’ his administration is facing. Absolutely no leadership on her part. So far, it seems to be working. This month, Ms. Harris’s poll numbers bested the president for the first time since taking office.

“My instinct is to say that so much fire has been aimed at Biden, Harris’s numbers have gone up by sheer virtue of being out of the spotlight,” Democratic strategist Christy Setzer told The Hill last week. “She’s not giving anyone fresh reason to dislike her, so her polling numbers revert to the mean, with the country about evenly divided on the Black woman in the No. 2 spot.”

And there you have it, Ms. Harris’s only credentials: Being the first Black woman appointed as vice president, trying desperately not to mess up the moment. Don’t expect to see her anytime soon.

"And this fall, Democratic senators Cory Booker, Amy Klobuchar and Elizabeth Warren were all on the campaign trails of various candidates, helping to boost their profiles and remain relevant to the public.

Whatever Biden's decision, top Democrats are already eyeing Harris' poll numbers and assessing whether she is vulnerable to a primary challenge."

Klobuchar - uggghhh!  she looks like the joker with that phony 24/7 smile.
Booker -  uggghhh!  spartacus - nuff said
Warren - uggghhh! the first Indian to lose multiple presidential runs

and of course I will add butti - will likely win only some leftist father of the year award

VP or First Lady, Kamala Harris vs Jill Biden, Who has more power?
« Reply #166 on: November 17, 2021, 12:58:42 PM »
It's pretty easy to sink Kamala Harris, just link her to Biden.  But Kommie's numbers are even lower than Joe's.

There are so many theories out there about why they are sinking her, and is it intentional?  Really she is sinking herself, but still they won't help her.

The Onion headline, "White House Urges Kamala Harris To Sit At Computer All Day In Case Emails Come Through."

Ann Althouse:  "My hypothesis is based, first, on a belief that Jill Biden hated the way Harris treated her husband in that first debate. "
https://althouse.blogspot.com/2021/11/my-hypothesis-bidens-deliberately-froze.html
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How's that southern border coming along Kamala?  "I haven't been to Europe yet either", she said.

At this point, they clearly favor Buttigieg.  Watch for the switch.  Kamala may suddenly want to 'spend more time with family'.

How do you solve a problem like Kamala?
« Reply #169 on: November 30, 2021, 01:37:07 PM »
Worst approval rate in the country, and she hasn't had any responsibility yet, or made any mistakes other than saying a few dumb things - and cackling.

They assigned the border crisis to her, whatever that means. She didn't solve it, but they didn't let her solve it.  No one on their side want it 'solved'.

Clearly she is not the second most powerful person in the administration.  She is reportedly on the outs with whoever is in charge.  Jill, for one, hates her for painting Joe a racist in a debate.

Her job is to be the Leftist successor to President Joe Biden.  She has held enough offices to do that.  She was elected state Attorney General and to represent the largest state in the US Senate (uncontested general elections).  She is known nationally for her failed Presidential bid, but lots of VPs first had failed Presidential bids.  In her case, she didn't win a delegate or a vote, much less a primary, and her 'tough on crime' record as Calif AG has fallen out of favor.

Anyway, the only way they see to remove her is to promote her [again], this time to Supreme Court Justice.  [No, there isn't a vacancy.]

If so, many problems arise. 
1) There is no one else without major flaws or shortcomings ready to get confirmed as the new VP.
If they had someone, they would have picked them the first time.  And now it HAS to be a black woman.  Dem rule.
2) She might not be confirmed to the Court [if there was a vacancy and she was appointed].  See below.
3) She would likely be a weak Justice, and take the place of a stronger one, Breyer is the one usually mentioned.

But she would, if this happened, make another historical first:

If nominated to the Supreme Court, Kamala Harris would be the first Supreme Court nominee to have failed the bar exam.

VP Kamala Harris: Mean, morale destroying, bullying boss
« Reply #172 on: December 08, 2021, 09:15:49 AM »
https://lidblog.com/kamala-staffers/

Also:

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/12/04/kamala-harris-staff-departures/

Critics scattered over two decades point to an inconsistent and at times degrading principal who burns through seasoned staff members who have succeeded in other demanding, high-profile positions. People used to putting aside missteps, sacrificing sleep and enduring the occasional tirade from an irate boss say doing so under Harris can be particularly difficult, as she has struggled to make progress on her vice-presidential portfolio or measure up to the potential that has many pegging her as the future of the Democratic Party.

Gil Duran, a former Democratic strategist, and aide to Harris who quit after five months working for her in 2013. In a recent column [for the San Francisco Examiner]he said she’s repeating “the same old destructive patterns. “Who are the next talented people you’re going to bring in and burn through and then have (them) pretend they’re retiring for positive reasons,” he told The Post.
...

Staffers who worked for Harris before she was vice president said one consistent problem was that Harris would refuse to wade into briefing materials prepared by staff members, then berate employees when she appeared unprepared.

“It’s clear that you’re not working with somebody who is willing to do the prep and the work. 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.”

------------------------------------

This tells us something ugly about Kamala.  It also tells us something about the Democrat method of raising people up through the system.  From appointments by Willie Brown for sex, to nomination by Joe Biden for gender and skin color, gone is the meritocracy.  Meanwhile people like Ron DeSantis have to govern a state successfully to move up.

Harris announces company investments in Central America

BY STEPHEN DINAN THE WASHINGTON TIMES

Pepsi, Cargill and several other companies will make new investments in Central America, Vice President Kamala Harris announced Monday, saying it was the latest success in her effort to try to create opportunities in those communities that might keep future would-be migrants at home.

The seven new companies mark the second round of commitments Ms. Harris has touted as part of her “Call to Action” in Central America.

She said some of the earlier commitments, announced in May, are already showing results, including Microsoft, which has “catalyzed” broadband access to 1.1 million people, and development of clean energy. Nespresso has also promised to spend $150 million between now and 2025, for the first time buying its coffee from Honduras and El Salvador.

All told, Ms. Harris counts $1.2 billion in commitments made as part of her Call to Action.

The vice president’s efforts in Central America have been among the most controversial of her 11 months in office.

As the Biden border surge went into overdrive in the spring, she was tapped with devising ways to stop the large number of migrants from crossing. The migrants mainly came from El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala, known as the Northern Triangle, which has surpassed Mexico as the leading source of illegal border crossing.

Some critics dubbed her the border czar — a title she has resoundingly rejected, insisting her billet stops south of the border.

Ms. Harris has blamed a variety of factors for the increase such as climate change, corruption and violence, though major new studies, including one sponsored by the Homeland Security Department, say the key driver is economics. One study said the average migrant from Northern Triangle countries sees a 10-fold increase in income by coming to the U.S.

That explains Ms. Harris’ focus on job opportunities, though closing enough of a 10fold gap in incomes to keep people at home will be tricky.

And even as the vice president focuses on Central America, migration patterns are changing.

Over the last five months of fiscal year 2021, the Northern Triangle accounted for about 40% of illegal border crossers. But those from beyond that r

Harris: It’s ‘no one’s fault’ that virus spread to U.S.

BY DAVE BOYER THE WASHINGTON TIMES

Vice President Kamala Harris said it’s “no one’s fault” that COVID-19, which originated in China, spread to the U.S. and the rest of the world.

In an interview with CBS News, the vice president also set herself apart from President Biden by refusing to blame unvaccinated Americans for the spread in the U.S.

“I don’t think this is a moment to talk about fault,” Ms. Harris told interviewer Margaret Brennan. “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.”

The Republican National Committee responded on Tuesday, “Wrong. It’s China’s fault.”

The virus originated in Wuhan, China. A report by a U.S. government national laboratory concluded this year that it’s “plausible” the virus leaked from a Chinese lab in Wuhan, and that the theory deserves further investigation.

Last year, Ms. Harris blamed then-President Trump for the virus spreading in the U.S., saying Mr. Trump was “delusional” and failed to take the virus “seriously from the start.”

“This virus has impacted almost every country, but there’s a reason it has hit America worse than any other advanced nation. It’s because of Trump’s failure to take it seriously from the start,” she said at the time. “His refusal to get testing up and running, his flip-flopping on social distancing and wearing masks, his delusional belief that he knows better than the experts — all of that is the reason and the reason an American dies of COVID-19 every 80 seconds.”

But deaths from COVID-19 under the Biden administration now equal the number during the Trump administration. The U.S. reached the milestone of 800,000 deaths last week, double the 400,000 deaths that had been recorded by Mr. Trump’s last full day in office.

Her latest interview also is a departure from Mr. Biden, who has laid blame on people who don’t get vaccinated.

In September, Mr. Biden told Americans in a speech, “This is a pandemic of the unvaccinated. 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.”

In her comments to CBS, Ms. Harris said Americans “have the power today to go out and if you’ve not been boosted, go get boosted. The power today to go and get vaccinated. And that will have an impact on where we end up tomorrow.”

Same as when Hillary was asked what her  approach was to all foreign policy threats :

" We would confer with our friends and allies"

What a bullshit line that sounds nice - fits ALL situations . Convenient to say when one has no other idea what to do -  or the plan being used is a failure.

Now Kamala using same Hillary BS line - I will speak to our friends and allies in Wall Street and business "community". (Big tech and banks mostly who all want cheap labor)

Same SPEIL

When asked tough questions on what to do ->. I will confer with our (Democrat) friends and allies .

This is so stupidly Hillary crap

and the MSM swallows this crap as though it has any meaning .

By the time you rise to the level of Vice President of the United States, shouldn't you have some basic understanding of economics?

Not in this case:

"We have to address the fact that we have got to deal with the fact that folks are paying for gas, paying for groceries, and are -- need solutions to it. So let's talk about that," Harris said. "Short-term solution includes what we need to do around the supply chain, right? So, we went to the ports of Los Angeles, Long Beach, Savannah, Georgia, and said, 'Hey, guys, no more five days a week, eight hours a day; 24/7, let's move the products because people need their product – they need what they need.' We're dealing with it in terms of the long term. And that's about what we need to do to pass Build Back Better. It strengthens our economy."

For a plethora of reasons, the Reps should be pushing impeachment of Biden HARD.  A big part of the failure to do so can be explained by the fact of the Cackling Commie Ho as VP.

The impeachment and conviction of BOTH of them can easily be based upon dereliction of duty-- the failure to defend our border as required by our Constitution.

If we win the House and Senate, the Speaker of the House (Trump if he runs for Congress?) will be a Rep.

As Speaker he could lead the impeachment effort but they can never get to 67 votes in the Senate, so it would (only) be an exercise in publicizing his dereliction, which is fine.

On a different note, I wonder if the people behind the scenes will bear any cost for their silence on how infit they knew all along this man to be.

I don't think Kamala is a case for impeachment, so far.  More just a poor choice for VP and worse yet for future President.  She will never be ready.

My view is that a more forward view is a better approach.  Covid and this election interrupted the great progress we were making.  'Here is our agenda to get things back on track.'

One argument the Democrats made in 2020 was to get the adults back in charge of things.  Instead, dereliction of duty was the agenda.  They literally see the budget and the money supply from a kids' point of view, as a giant, unlimited candy store where everything is free.  Video clips show both Pres and VP saying $5-6 Trillion won't cost anything.  Won't cost anything.  That is outrageous!  As the debt goes to previously unimagined levels...  There is a lot of material to work with there if the campaigns want to have a focus.

"I don't think Kamala is a case for impeachment, so far"

Though there is plenty more, dereliction of duty for failure to defend the border will suffice.

All filler. No substance.

If she really said what was on her little mind we would know she is dumber than Joe and to the left of Karl Marx.

You have to give Kamala credit. She was able to suck Willie Brown’s D hard enough to shatter the glass ceiling.

It’s a proud moment in American history.

NRO: What the hell Kommiela?

What in the Hell Is Kamala Harris Doing?
By CHARLES C. W. COOKE
February 17, 2022 12:34 PM

If they wish, American citizens may be neutral on the virtues of their country. The vice president doesn’t have that luxury.


Icould never have imagined that I would come to long in earnest for the return of the insipid, aimless, and irrelevant version of Kamala Harris — the one who believes that she is being profound when she suggests that “it is time for us to do what we have been doing, and that time is every day.” Yet here we are. Yesterday, the vice president of the United States put out a statement in Farsi that read, “The truth is: There is segregation in America. Xenophobia exists in America. Antisemitism, Islamophobia, homophobia, transphobia, all exist. Wherever injustice is dealt with, there is activity ahead.” As a reward for her efforts, the Biden administration has decided to send Harris to represent the United States at a summit in Munich, during which she will take part in “a series of high-stakes, high-level diplomatic talks” designed to prevent Russia from invading Ukraine. Thankfully, we have no alarming historical examples of the regrettable consequences that flow from our sending the wrong peace negotiators to Munich.

We are told that Harris hopes to gain some foreign-policy experience ahead of a potential run for — or takeover of — the presidency. If so, the first step will be to understand that speaking for one’s country on the global stage differs profoundly from making the keynote address at this year’s Netroots Nation. Alas, it is unclear whether the Biden administration writ large understands this. At his disastrous January press conference, President Biden was asked bluntly whether he thought that Russia would go into Ukraine, and — twice — he reacted as if he were on a late-afternoon panel at a D.C. think-tank symposium. “I think,” Biden said, “what you’re going to see is that Russia will be held accountable if it invades. And it depends on what it does. It’s one thing if it’s a minor incursion and then we end up having a fight about what to do and not do. . . .” Accurate or not, this was the wrong answer for an American president to proffer. The right answer was, “Russia must not invade Ukraine, and if it does there will be consequences.” If they wish, American citizens may be neutral on the virtues of their country. The executive branch doesn’t have that luxury.

Astonishingly, this does not seem to be obvious to the U.S. State Department, which has adopted a policy designed to “disarm critics and skeptics” by coupling demands for international change with a recitation of what the Democratic Party believes is wrong with the United States. This is extraordinarily foolish. Because they read the news, America’s adversaries recognize that American progressives neither admire the U.S. nor believe it to be exceptional, and they understand that they can exploit that under-confidence for their own geopolitical ends. President Ronald Reagan really did believe that the United States was a “shining city on a hill.” But he also grasped that, alongside military strength, civilizational self-assurance represented an enormous diplomatic asset. “Y’know, when you think about it, we’re not that great either”? Not so much.

Which is all another way of asking: What in the ever-loving hell does Kamala Harris think she is doing? Leave aside for a moment her grotesque false equivalence. How, I would like to know, did this ever happen? Why did Harris decide to engage in such self-flagellation in the first instance? Who translated the attempt for her? Who decided to put it out on an official account whose bio reads, “The US Department of State’s Persian Twitter posts the views of the US government”? Why did the U.S. Embassy in Iran choose to share it? Did the president know? The Biden-Harris ticket ran in 2020 promising a return to honor. Instead, it has set about continuing the tendency toward relativism and self-critique that began under Barack Obama and continued under Donald Trump.


After Bill O’Reilly suggested to him in 2017 that Vladimir Putin was a “killer,” Trump responded, disgracefully, “There are a lot of killers. You think our country’s so innocent?” Well, actually, I do, yes. I think that it’s open and free and fair and stable and kind and hopeful, and that, when compared with every other country that has ever existed, it looks extraordinarily good. I think that there is no comparison to be drawn between the United States and tyrannies such as Russia, China, Iran, or North Korea. America is a beacon, an exemplar, and a refuge; those other nations belong in what Churchill called the “dark, lamentable catalogue of human crime.” If Kamala Harris does not agree, that is her right. But she might have the decency to step down from the executive branch before saying so aloud from the front of the international stage.

With Joe faltering, she is potentially the most powerful person in the world, still in her 50s. Makes you wonder, other than sleeping with twice her age Willie Brown now 86 to get her start, what kind of the intellect and magical way with words does a woman who rises that dramatically possess?



Obviously off-script, how does she come up with stuff like that without help? 

How does someone who see the big picture like that have only a 36% approval rate?

I mean, really.

Kamala vs. Putin in a chess game. Who would you bet on?
