Kamala Harris is one of the worst people ever to attain national office, and since this seems to be the week that the mainstream press is turning on her, it seems like a great time to start a megathread.

I live in the middle of the corn field. And yet I still don't have a problem getting a photo copy from a fucken public library
Same here. Corn, corn forever.

Yet, I can just go to Wal-Mart, buy a shitty $20 printer/scanner, plug it in, put my ID card on it, put paper in it, hit "COPY" button.

Ooooh, copy of ID.

And it isn't like you don't go to the courthouse every month or so, they'll photocopy whatever the fuck you want if you bring Marge some cookies from Lotta's Bakery.

Worse comes to worse, ask the guys at the cop shop.

The bank.

Oh, the dude who does the stampy things to prove the signatures were real. He's got one of them nifty new-fangled thingamabobs that can make a picture of another picture.

Or...

We just burn Kamle Toe at the stake for being a witch.
 
Seems like she's trying to quash the bad shit people that work for her were saying by throwing a BBQ party and pretending all the bad shit never happened.

Kamala Harris throws party for staffers amid toxic work environment flap
Vice presidential staffers show off pictures of a post-Fourth of July party


Staffers for Vice President Kamala Harris took to Twitter to show off a post-Fourth of July BBQ hosted at Naval Observatory amid reports of a tumultuous atmosphere in the West Wing.

The party held on Thursday came just days after reports surfaced detailing low morale in the vice president’s office.

A report by Politico last week detailed 22 interviews from current and former White House staffers who depicted a tense scene of infighting in Harris’ office, describing the working atmosphere as "tense and at times dour."

Harris, along with her husband Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff, appeared in pictures posted to social media with roughly 60 White House aides, surrounded by blue-and-white checkered tablecloths, food and glasses of what appeared to be wine.

"What an honor to be at the Vice President’s residence with incredible colleagues for a post-July 4th BBQ," personal aid to the vice president, Opal Vadhan said in a tweet. "As always an honor to work on a team that looks like America."

Harris’ chief spokesperson Symone Sanders joined in and posted more than a dozen photos of herself with her colleagues.

"Tonight the Vice President and Second Gentlemen hosted the team at their home. The food was good and the people were amazing," she wrote.

Other members from Harris’ press team, including Peter Velz, Rachel Palermo and Vince Evans, posted photos of the indoor BBQ-style event.

Despite negative reporting of the management of Harris’ office from anonymous sources, the vice president’s chief spokesman defended the reportedly toxic workplace atmosphere.

"People are cowards to do this this way," she told Politico last week. We are not making rainbows and bunnies all day. What I hear is that people have hard jobs, and I’m like, ‘welcome to the club,’" Sanders said.

"We have created a culture where people, if there is anything anyone would like to raise, there are avenues for them to do so," she added.

I find myself curious as to what she did with the sixteen cents she saved compared to 2020's party.

After just six months in the White House as the Vice President of the United States, Kamala Harris has become the most unpopular VP since at least the 1970s.

Recent polls have revealed that Kamala Harris’ ratings have hit a record low as the majority of the Americans disapprove of her job performance.




As per local polls reported in the local media, such as the Telegraph, Harris’ ratings have dipped so low that she is now being indicated to be "underwater".

Two recent polls have concluded that 46 per cent of Americans approved of Harris, whereas 47 and 48 per cent of locals disapproved of the new VP. On the other hand, US President Joe Biden has gained 51.3 per cent approval, while only 44.9 per cent disapproved.

Her low ratings have come as a surprise as Democrats had expected her to not only help in Biden’s victory in US election 2020, but some strategists had also hoped that she would be able to replace Biden in the next elections.

Harris is the first African-American, Indian-origin female Vice President of the United States. During her campaigning days in the US election 2020, she had gained momentum on social media platforms for her Indian-origin-related posts, her boss-like styling, and her social media presence, along with her academic achievements.

However, her unpopularity has been seen majorly in the young people. A recent poll by YouGive/Economist showed that young people aged between 18-29 years found Harris "unfavourable" and only 36 per cent found her to be "favourable".

Her rating has also suffered in Hispanic voters, which might be a result of her role in US border policy.

The White House now aims to send her only in a few selected areas for campaigning, ahead of next year’s midterm congressional elections. Biden administration is also hoping to lift her ratings globally by sending her on more foreign trips in the coming months.

"Her low ratings have come as a surprise"? How amazingly arrogant of these people to pay no attention to their own primary where it was clear she's poison.

Also, you have to love how god awful her numbers are with the young crowd she's trying so desperately to play to.
 

US VP Harris: Focus must stay on Afghan evacuation​


Vice President Kamala Harris asserted Monday that the U.S. must maintain its focus on evacuating Americans and vulnerable Afghans and shouldn’t get distracted by questions over what went wrong in the chaotic U.S. exit from Afghanistan.

Speaking at a news conference in Singapore, Harris repeatedly declined to engage when asked what she felt should have been done differently in the withdrawal.

“There’s no question there will be and should be a robust analysis of what has happened, but right now there’s no question that our focus has to be on evacuating American citizens, Afghans who worked with us and vulnerable Afghans, including women and children,” she said.

Harris took questions alongside Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong after the two met for about two hours to discuss issues ranging from the COVID-19 response to cybersecurity and supply chain cooperation. The news conference was dominated by Afghanistan, after the messy U.S. withdrawal sparked concerns about America’s commitments to its allies globally.

Harris’ visit to Singapore and Vietnam this week is seen as the first real test of the Biden administration’s ability to reassure key allies of its resolve.

Prime Minister Lee offered his country’s support for the U.S. decision to withdraw, however, and said Singapore was “grateful” for the U.S. efforts to combat terrorism in Afghanistan. He also offered the U.S. the use of the Singapore Air Force’s transport aircraft to help with the evacuation, and said the country is now watching what the U.S. does next.

“What matters is how the U.S. repositions itself in the Asia Pacific, engages the broader region and continues to fight against terrorism, because that will determine the perceptions of the countries of the U.S.′ global priorities and of its strategic intentions,” he said.

Harris’ Southeast Asian trip, which brings her to Singapore and then later to Vietnam this week, is aimed at broadening cooperation with both nations to offer a counterweight to China’s growing influence in the region.

On Monday, the vice president’s office announced a series of new agreements with Singapore aimed at combating cyberthreats, tackling climate change, addressing the COVID-19 pandemic and alleviating supply chain issues.

On cybersecurity, the Treasury and Defense Departments, as well as the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, have each inked a memorandum of understanding with their Singapore counterparts expanding information sharing and training to combat cyberthreats.

The two nations agreed to cooperate more closely to track COVID-19 variants and engage in research on coronavirus treatments. And the Department of Commerce is joining with the Singapore Ministry of Trade and Industry to create a partnership focused on strengthening trade throughout a handful of key industries.

The White House announced additional agreements between the two nations fostering cooperation on space exploration and defense issues as well. The announcements came Monday after Harris met with Singapore President Halimah Yacob and Prime Minister Lee.

Later Monday, speaking to sailors on a U.S. Navy combat ship at Singapore’s Changi naval base, Harris expressed gratitude for the U.S. soldiers and embassy staff working in an “incredibly challenging and dangerous environment” to evacuate Afghanistan.

On Tuesday, Harris will deliver a speech outlining the Biden administration’s vision for the region, and meet with business leaders to discuss supply chain issues. During her remarks at Changi naval base, Harris seemed to preview her Tuesday speech, describing the Indo-Pacific region as “critical to the security and prosperity of the United States.”

“I do believe a big part of the history of the 21st century will be written about this very region where you now serve. And we want to be the ones who are helping to shape and dictate that history,” she said.

The trip marks Harris’ second foreign trip in office — she visited Guatemala and Mexico in June — and will be the first time a U.S. vice president has visited Vietnam.

Singapore is the anchor of the U.S. naval presence in Southeast Asia and has a deep trade partnership with the U.S., but the country also seeks to maintain strong ties with China and a position of neutrality amid increasingly frosty U.S.-China relations.

Relations between the U.S. and China deteriorated sharply under Biden’s predecessor, Donald Trump, and the two sides remain at odds over a host of issues including technology, cybersecurity and human rights.

U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken and U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin made their first overseas trips to Japan and South Korea. Austin traveled to Singapore, Vietnam and the Philippines last month and vowed U.S. support against Beijing’s intrusions in the South China Sea.

Alexander Feldman, president and CEO of the US-ASEAN Business Council, said Harris will have to be careful in her conversations with Singapore’s leaders not to focus too heavily on China, but to emphasize a positive, productive U.S. relationship with Singapore and Vietnam.

“Where she could fall into a trap is really trying to pit this as a U.S. versus China trip. It should be a U.S. trip to our friends and partners in Southeast Asia,” Feldman said.

If China becomes the main focal point, he said, “that makes it harder for our friends to move forward across the region, not only in Singapore and Vietnam but beyond that.”

Indeed, Singapore Foreign Minister Vivian Balakrishnan said in a recent interview that Singapore will “be useful but we will not be made use of” in its relations with both countries, and the nation’s prime minister previously warned the U.S. against pursuing an aggressive approach to China.

Beijing, however, has seized on Harris’ trip, with China’s official Xinhua News Agency issuing an editorial Saturday on the visit portraying it as part of a drive to contain China.

Visits to Southeast Asia by senior Biden officials are aiming to “woo these countries to form a ring of containment against China. But Southeast Asian countries are reluctant to choose sides between China and the United States, and America’s ‘wishful plan’ will end in failure,” Xinhua said.

The U.S. approach is based on “outdated Cold War thinking and is intended to provoke troubles in their relations with China, create division and confrontation, and try to create a ring of containment,” the editorial said.
 
That's a bit of a reach, she's hyenaing because she's asking them to slow down. This is coming from someone who dislike her greatly.
Even if true, her “cackling” is getting stale. Asking reporters to slow down is one thing, but to do it with that kind of “laugh” is a bit overselling it at that point.
 
Kamala Harris’ cackling is Joe Biden’s job security

Vice President Kamala Harris’s team canceled press access to her remarks to US troops at Pearl Harbor on Thursday — surely because it feared yet another disaster for the veep at the site of a terrible attack on America, the same day as the horrors in Kabul.

Harris is just too prone to verbal fumbles that pour more fuel on the Biden administration’s fires.

Just the week before, Harris broke into a bizarre cackle when reporters asked about the early stages of the Afghan crisis. And that’s hardly her only nails-on-chalkboard moment.

For example, when NBC’s Lester Holt called her out for failing to go to the US-Mexico border when she’s supposed to be administration pointwoman on the border criss, Harris again weirdly laughed as she countered, “And I haven’t been to Europe!” as if that had a thing to do with it.

Earlier, during last year’s campaign, CBS’s Norah O’Donnell asked Harris if she brought a “socialist or progressive perspective” to the Democratic ticket and got her own burst of the Kamala cackle.

Then the candidate answered, “No, no!” followed by a nervous-laughter-filled ramble: “It is the perspective of — of a woman who grew up a black child in America, who was also a prosecutor, who also has a mother who arrived here at the age of 19 from India. Who also, you know, likes hip hop. Like, what do you wanna know?”

That followed her cringe-inducing interview with Charlamagne tha God during the Democratic primaries. The “Breakfast Club” host asked if the ex-prosecutor opposed legalizing pot; she replied, “Half my family’s from Jamaica. Are you kidding me? Hahahahahahah.”

She told Charlamagne she’d toked up in college while listening to Snoop Dogg and Tupac Shakur — yet she graduated in 1986, years before either artist hit the scene.

Even the high point of her primary campaign proved hollow, when she blasted Joe Biden’s 1970s opposition to forced bussing with her “That little girl was me” memory of waiting for her own bus — when it turned out she was in a voluntary bussing program.

Bottom line: Harris can barely get through a friendly interview without blatant insincerity — she’s as fake as her laugh.

In a weird way, all this makes her a priceless asset to President Biden: Anytime talk starts about, say, invoking the 25th Amendment to force him to step aside because of his apparent mental woes, people consider the fact that she’d be the one to take over.

Harris’ incompetence, in short, is Joe’s job security.
