Thulasendrapuram, a leafy village about 320 km south of the city of Chennai, is where Harris’s maternal grandfather was born more than a century ago. Calendars featuring the faces of Biden and Harris have been distributed throughout the village by a co-operative.

Does she know the name of her ancestral Indian village? Last I checked, she only uses her heritage when it’s politically convenient.

You cannot make this stuff up.....Oh wait-yes you can!

Democrats need to push President Biden‘s agenda through the way Republicans push through supreme court justices. It’s time to grow a pair, Democrats!!

Wonder if they discussed how many slaves her family had

Indians did not condone her works, I am sure.

I love these stories. I LOVE the American Dream.

But she’s black when that’s more beneficial..
