Is a high-profile confirmation hearing on Capitol Hill on the horizon? On Tuesday night, Fox News’ Jesse Watters reported that Fox News congressional correspondent Chad Pergram “has been hearing whispers suggesting there could be some new, high-profile confirmation hearings on the horizon in the House of Representatives.”
“Why is this a big deal? Because the House does not confirm normal nominees, but it does confirm vice presidential nominees. Does this have something to do with Kamala Harris?” Watters pondered.
Recent reports have suggested there’s a lot of tension and dysfunction behind the scenes in the White House. Kamala Harris isn’t happy with the role she’s been asked to play and her allies are accusing Biden of racism for favoring Transportation Secretary Buttigieg over her .
“There’s a lot of conjecture right now about the future of VP Harris and her lagging poll numbers,” Pergram told Watters. “As you know, I appreciate Congressional process and mechanics. So I got a message recently from someone who knows Capitol Hill very well, and they suggested that I should familiarize myself with the process to confirm a vacancy for the Vice President in the Senate and in the House.”
The last vice president to be confirmed by Congress was Norman Rockefeller after Gerald Ford became president following Richard Nixon’s resignation. Ford himself was confirmed by Congress to be Nixon’s vice president when he filled the vacancy left by Vice President Spiro Agnew.

It’d be trading ineptitude for more ineptitude.
Can’t she just open her mouth and satiate everyone’s angst?
Yea, who cares, they can hardly screw it up worse from here.
Norman? Lololol
Maybe the vacancy will occur when Harris replaces Biden as President.
BootyGig would be just as disastrous a President in Waiting as Kamala.
Maybe more. I think he can probably hide his incompetence better. Those who are stirring to awakening would quickly go back to sleep
To replace the VP now only means that POTUS’ diagnosis has gone terminal, no? They don’t want Harris as POTUS. no?
some want Sec Trans and his husband
as VP; ready to be gay-pRES when Xiden collapses.
“Norman Rockefeller”?
I guess they couldn’t remember if it was Norman Rockwell or Nelson Rockefeller.
And who would the have appointed VP? Hillary? She's as non compos mentis as Biden, although she would probably be the Deep State's preferred replacement.
In any case, if there is a new VP appointed, that would be followed by the drool bucket's resignation shortly thereafter.
Those circumstances are provided for in the 25th Amendment to the Constitution, which was passed in 1967. Section 2 states:
"Whenever there is a vacancy in the office of the Vice President, the President shall nominate a Vice President who shall take office upon confirmation by a majority vote of both Houses of Congress."
I keep seeing articles hinting that Harris is on the way out and will be replaced.
Harris is “out” only if she volunteers to step down. I don’t see that happening. “Hey, I just figured out that I suck as VP, and so I’ll be stepping down ...”
I just don’t see it.
Funny how theft, dishonesty, and manipulation always seems to come back and haunt you.
She will not voluntarily resign unless she is or about to be indicted for a felony. This woman is without shame and will just sit in her office and wait for Biden’s inevitable end.
Replacing one criminal with another.
Only 2 ways the VP leaves office. If she quits or dies. Hmmmm.
See tagline. The question on my mind for the last couple of months is, will it be Hillary, or maybe Michelle, or who knows? But I suspect our next president will not be Biden or Kamala and will definitely happen before 2024. Probably before 2022 elections.

Ha! Since were engaging in pure speculation here, that’s a possibility. Joe resigns due to poor health. Kamala takes over, and appoints an unqualified lunatic as her VP (birds of a feather flock together).
They can’t make Harris leave. They would have to have a sweetener. Can you imagine Harris on SCOTUS?
