The headlines have been brutal.
"Exasperation and dysfunction: Inside Kamala Harris' frustrating start as vice president," read one from CNN.
"Biden-successor chatter grows and Harris isn't scaring off anyone," read another from Politico.
And this from the New York Post: "Kamala Harris sidelined amid growing tensions with Biden, insiders say."
The general gist of all of these pieces is similar if not exactly the same: The Vice President is struggling in her role. She's frustrated. And some people in President Joe Biden's orbit are just as frustrated with her.
As CNN wrote over the weekend:
(snip)
Bad headlines are part and parcel for any administration. And the role of vice president -- particularly for someone, like Harris, who is widely seen as eying the top job -- is notoriously fraught.
But, these series of stories have quite clearly struck a nerve in the White House -- as evidenced by the decision to issue a statement from press secretary Jen Psaki Sunday night expressing confidence in Harris.
"For anyone who needs to hear it. @VP is not only a vital partner to @POTUS but a bold leader who has taken on key, important challenges facing the country—from voting rights to addressing root causes of migration to expanding broadband," tweeted Psaki.
Consider that Psaki sent this tweet on Sunday at 9:20 pm -- not exactly normal business hours.
Then consider that needing to put out a tweet insisting that everything is totally fine between the president and the vice president suggests that things are not, well, totally fine. Smart people don't need to tell you how smart they are. Athletic people don't need to brag about their achievements on the field. And solid relationships don't need to be publicly asserted as solid.

How can one be so inept as to screw up the do nothing VP position?????? She must truly be worthless.
they finally used her dark skin or their public image, now’s the time to drop Miss “I only got 3% from the presidential Dem Poll”
Remember the Left’s incessant making fun of Dan Quayle - for years on end?
Harris makes him look like a top shelf VP.
That part surprised me. It could had waited until Monday afternoon. It was nothing urgent......say Hunter Biden doing one of his typical indiscretions.
She's not satisfied just showing up for funerals of world leaders.
Will she start working on the border issue now that she has been to France?
Empty vapid nonsense.
It matters not.
Brandon has a real problem if his afraid of Kamel Toe. Is there some kind of race to brain dead that I don’t know about? Let’s the duke it out. I love when Rats eat their own.
“She must truly be worthless.”
she wasn’t white. That’s it. That was her use. Now she’s like a used condom. At least she wasn’t a Deep State muppet out to thwart the president at every turn aka Pence..
This may have been said by Greg Gutfeld, I'm not sure.
“The vice presidency isn’t worth a pitcher of warm pi—” John Nance Garner
Problem is: Ka-ma-la-la-la-ding-dong is as bad if not worse!
What to do, what to do? And now Democrat Party challengers are coming out of the woodwork and challenging her for the Presidential Nomination in 2024. This is NOT the scenario the Democrats wanted, BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!
2024 is a lifetime, politically speaking, away from now. Anything can happen and the Repbulicant Party does have a unique way of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. Let's hope this time around they let the Democrat Party step on their own d*cks all the way up to election day, and the Republicant party just keeps its mouth shut.
Jill is running the show, she controls Joe and apparently his staff. And Jill doesn’t like Kamala so...
Exactly! We all knew this was coming. We all knew that this administration doesn’t rely on VP Harris or even Pres. Biden. They are not running the show. The shadow government is. Period
The VP problem DOES handily distract from Hunters failure to sell a painting.....just a few prints.
His gallery closed down his show supposedly b/c of sparse attendance.
Although a couple Chinese showed up......ahead of their trial for stealing US nuclear secrets.
Put your collective FR minds together. Why is CNN coming out with story after story about the division between Bidung and Heels Up?
There has to be a reason. But what is it?

The golf pro says they do, and they are $1.00.
The guy gives the golf pro a dollar.
The golf pro opens the register, puts the dollar in, and hands him a dime to use as the marker.
This economic model is also being used by the American government.
The real fun begins when Biden kicks off in office.
