As crises mount, Harris is out of sight
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette ^ | December 12, 2021 | Chris Talgo

At the outset of the Biden administration, Vice President Kamala Harris was a media darling, portrayed as the heir apparent and always willing to make a public appearance.

In fact, the White House was so high on Ms. Harris in the early days that it instructed media to, “Please be sure to reference the current administration as the ‘Biden-Harris Administration’ in official public communications.”

That was then; this is now.

For the last few months, as the Biden administration has tried to juggle multiple crises, Ms. Harris has kept a very low profile.

As an avid news observer, I cannot recall the last time Ms. Harris sat down for a hard-hitting interview or held a news conference of any substance. In fact, ever since President Joe Biden declared her “border czar,” the vice president has been almost absent from the public eye.

Perhaps that is because as border czar, Ms. Harris has failed miserably. The American people are fully aware that the southern border is a sieve. In 2021, on Ms. Harris’ watch, more than 1.7 million immigrants have illegally crossed the southern border. Drugs, especially fentanyl, are pouring over the southern border in record amounts.

Human trafficking is also running rampant along the U.S.-Mexico border. As border czar, Ms. Harris has been an absolute debacle. To date, she has made one token appearance at the border, when she complained about “rhetoric and finger-pointing.”

Instead of dealing with the fraught situation at the border, Ms. Harris said she would rather focus on the “root causes” of the problem. However, months after becoming border czar, the situation is becoming worse, not better.

She’s probably keeping a low profile on purpose. I know I would, given the situation she’s in. Just wait out the Grim Reaper.......................

Is there some way to guarantee that we’ll never have to see her again? At the same time, why isn’t she required to make a report on what she found as the “root causes” of illegal migration? Anyone could do that sitting at home at a computer. I suppose that’s worthy of one of her giggles.

They could stage a scandal and try to force her to resign for her corruption

She was first in on Jussie Smollett, almost as if she knew about it beforehand. Her husband is a Hollywood showbiz lawyer.

They are still refusing to turn over Jussie's phone and text/email history.

Maybe they can get her out that way.

“Oh, please, please, do not make me go into that lion’s den!”

“Que mala” Harris is worried deathly ill that if things get so bad that even the oligarchy cannot keep Joe upright and able to move with only minimal guidance, SHE will have to step in and become the figurehead. It is certain that she shall never, ever, assume command, as that is WAY beyond her skill set.

She COULD do a Spiro Agnew act of “self-abnegation” and resign right now. It is called “getting out before the roof caves in.”

Keeping out of sight and keeping your mouth shut works.

It worked for Biden's campaign and silence on their 2020 election fraud(s)has worked for Fox News to this day...

The powers to be Agnew her and try to get an electable 2024 presidential candidate in place? Whom?

It's "who", by the way. Subject of the sentence 'who will it be'?

It's Gavin Newsom, by the way.

I suggest a #4: They buy her out.
How much? Who knows, but I’m sure there is a number that “she can’t refuse”.

She’s about one more major Biden screw up away from being Clintonized.....

They will want to get her replaced before they slide FJB into a mental hospital or give him a fatal stroke.

Do not doubt for a second that she is indeed the Border Czar. She is overseeing, aiding and abetting the invasion, escalation of drug imports and selling of trafficked humans. The epic scale of the invasion, about 250,000 people per month on average, is astounding. Harris, or someone at the very top, must be in charge of all the funding and infrastructure to get the invaders here. Who do you think pays for all those busses and boats and recruits the invaders?

I assume she’s too smart for this, but I wonder if there’s a way to NOMINATE her for the SC, get her to leave the VEEP position, replace her before the confirmation hearings, and then when she’s torpedoed in congress, she’s just OUT?

You are wrong, I am right, it is “whom: This pronoun gets it's case from the noun it is linked to, In this case it is candidate which is taking the objective case. Thus the pronoun is whom.

If she is nominated to the Supreme Court, she will be confirmed.

Back to the good old days when the Vice President was never seen or heard from. The fictional Vice President Alexander Throttlebottom spent his time feeding pigeons in the park. The only time he got to see the inside of the White House is when he took the tourists’ tour.
