VP Kamala Harris takes her tongue-twisters, word salad to Africa
Vice President Kamala Harris kept up her run of ponderous, head-scratching statements Monday on the first stop of a week-long trip to Africa, where the US is trying to head off China and Russia’s growing influence in the Third World.
“As you have mentioned, we have had today, this afternoon, a wide-ranging discussion,” she also said. “We have discussed a number of important topics, including the importance of concepts and priorities such as freedom and liberty.” The vice president used her visit to announce $100 million in US aid to the region, some of which will have to be approved by Congress as lawmakers attempt to negotiate an increase to Washington’s debt limit.
