Kamala Harris discussed Christmas shopping and climate change but failed to mention the current crisis in Afghanistan during her major foreign policy speech on Monday. Addressing a round table of business leaders before her speech she warned climate change and the pandemic have contributed to supply chain issues suggesting parents consider getting Christmas presents now. 'The stories we are hearing about caution, that if you want to have Christmas toys for your children, now might be the time to start buying because the delay may be many, many months. Across the board people are experiencing issues, and of course the climate crisis is fueling a lot of this. When we look at the stronger typhoons that have disrupted shipping lanes and sea level rise which threatens port infrastructure as an example, these are the issues that are that are causing these disruptions.'
Harris, who kicked off her week-long Asia tour on Sunday, also delivered sharp rebuke to China for its incursions in the South China Sea warning its actions there amount to coercion and intimidation affirming the U.S. will support its allies in the region against Beijing's advances. But she once again dodged the most weighty issue: Afghanistan. She's been criticized in the U.S. for her silence leaving remarks to figures such as National Security Adviser, Sullivan, Defense Secretary, Austin, and Joe Biden himself. Harris also remained quiet on comments made by Adam Schiff who claims President Biden is unlikely to meet his August 31 deadline to evacuate US citizens and their allies from Afghanistan. He said a full evacuation was possible but very unlikely. Despite not mentioning the chaos in Kabul during her address Harris was praised by Biden during a visit by the WNBA - during which he joked he may need a job soon.

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin said on Monday that the U.S. had done ‘unscrupulous and dishonest things’ in Afghanistan and called on the nation to help rebuild.
‘The United States is the root cause and the biggest external factor in the Afghan issue,’ Wenbin said.
‘It cannot just run away like this.’
Ho Ho Ho
And one might have thought that the Hillabeast’s level of loathsomeness, incompetency, and dishonesty could not be exceeded. But no! The HO has MO!
So they want to lock us down again before Christmas. I bet Thanksgiving, too. Pesky Christians.
As criticism was being levelled his way, President Biden was busy praising Kamala during an event with the WNBA champions Seattle Storm on Monday and joked he may need a job soon, volunteering his services as ball boy.
Biden thanked the four-time championship women’s basketball team for being an inspiration to women and girls around the world, saying it was important because ‘until they see it, till they watch, it becomes real.’
‘That’s why we have a female vice president,’ he added, saying he expects ‘we’re going to have some presidents pretty soon.’
Biden was in a jovial, relaxed mood as he praised the basketball team, who stood behind him, wearing face masks as he honored them during an event at the White House. The president has been dealing with the Taliban take over of Afghanistan and a revolt by moderate Democrats against his expansive $3.5 trillion budget plan on Capitol Hill.
But he was in a jokey mood with the Seattle Storm, telling them: ‘’I may need work after this. I’d make a good ball boy.’
I see what you did there.
We gave up gift exchanges for Christmas years ago. We do get stuff for the children, but all that has already been purchased.
I totally agree! Hillary is a dangerous woman, yes. One not easily controlled unlike Kamala who is a sock puppet at best. At least Hillary could act vice presidential unlike Kamala who acts like a teenager at the prom.
VP: Buy toys now because….climate doooooom
What a maroon!
Or to put it another way: STUPID WHORE STUPID WHORE STUPID WHORE!
“But he was in a jokey mood with the Seattle Storm, telling them: ‘’I may need work after this. I’d make a good ball boy.’”
Yeah, I bet he really wants to be a “ball boy” for the girls’ team. How ironic?
What a freaking disaster
Affirmative action at its worst
And I think soon this hateful racist bitch will be president
Ah..good catch to a good post :>)
I was at Wicks Pizza in Louisville once ordering a pizza. At the bar there was a basketball game going on on one of the video monitors. It was pretty lame, but I watched, trying to figure out why it was being broadcast. I thought maybe it was some popular high school team or something. Kentuckians are really into their college basketball so I thought this lame game might be fallout from that.
Nope. It was WNBA. I can’t believe people pay real money to watch that.
Well, yes and no. Sock puppet for those truly in charge of this total disaster of an administration. We know it ain’t mentally challenged Biden, and no way Kamala....
China is laughing at the toothless lioness.
Nice to know supply chains are collapsing...
I’m sure Biden’s commies are doing their best to make things better - oh wait - they’re not. The plan is to make things worse...
Personally, I think watching basketball is almost, but not quite, as exciting as watching paint dry. When my son played in middle school sure, it was fun to watch the kids. But why bother to watch adults prance about throwing a ball at a hoop? Me just don’t gets it!!!
We are there.
