WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden put the full weight of his presidency behind voting rights action last week, heading to Capitol Hill in an effort to push Democrats to change Senate rules to pass legislation.
Vice President Kamala Harris — whom Biden tapped to take the lead on passing voting rights legislation in June — wasn’t there.
Both White House press secretary Jen Psaki and Harris aides had no clear answer when asked why the vice president didn’t join Biden in the meeting.
It was yet another example of the difficulty Harris has faced throughout her first year in office, as she’s struggled to define herself and her role.
Harris has grappled with an expansive portfolio of difficult assignments, fielded questions about her relationship with the president and faced what allies say is unprecedented scrutiny for a vice president — without, some worry, adequate support from the White House.
Indeed, Harris’ aides say privately that the vice president is careful not to get ahead of the president, never wanting to take credit for the administration’s successes.
Harris’ aides say that she has played an active role in some of the president’s toughest policy choices, including his decision to withdraw from Afghanistan.

I guess screwing powerful men who can advance your career does sell as VP
Here’s some definition for her:
https://secure.actblue.com/donate/kdh-social-minnesota-freedom-fund?refcode=tw200601
Uh...No, She has defined herself quite thoroughly....
What’s to define?
Just have KamelToe put on some pasties and kneepads.
Everybody will have a good definition of what she is.
Oh...Poor baby..
The job is too difficult for her?
Well that is one way to put it. Me, I’ll go with she’s organically unpleasant, not especially intelligent, and unwilling to learn, consider views outside her preconceived take, or work hard. Same fact set justifies my analysis as much as it does the author’s.
According to Biden, she’s ‘President Harris’.
I think she is trying to “re”define herself. We already know what she is identified as. Two letters, starts with H, ends with O . . .
“Define” herself? Just be her authentic self. No, I guess not.
I doubt if she’s losing any sleep over it........................
When your primary goal is to make sure nothing bad sticks to you BUT you are part of a team that produces only bad things it is quite a quandary.
Maybe there’s no “there” to define.
This
A former VP defined the office as “useless as a bucket of warm (spit)”.
There’s your definition, Kamala. Now shut up.
How ‘bout Ho?
