Sitting among some of the most influential Black women in America last month, Vice President Kamala Harris confessed to a stifling sensation that had fallen over her while in office. She was struggling to escape the D.C. bubble, Harris confided to the group, which had gathered in person and virtually for the private audience, according to multiple attendees.
“She wholeheartedly wants to get out,” said Ebonie Riley, a senior vice president at National Action Network who was at the meeting. “She said she was ‘Zoom’d out,’ she would love to be in-person engaging.” At the meeting with Black women leaders, attendees said, Harris was receptive to suggestions she build more public events and town halls into her schedule. Harris indicated that she sees the wisdom of better explaining not just the complexities of her policy portfolio, but also her approach to the job of vice president, with its often shifting tasks. She recognized the potential rewards of sharing more about herself — and she“You get cabin fever when you're in Washington, D.C.
“To put her in some box where she has to go play the game of checkers, you miss the game of chess,” Brazile said. “Every politician is different. Every ‘first’ has this challenge to try to define themselves. Everyone defines their own path and so has the vice president.” Biden’s triumph in the Democratic primary changed that. Not needing someone to give his ticket additional experience, he went with Harris, a history-making woman of color, as a nod to raising up a younger generation of Democrats and the Black voters that rescued his candidacy.
Along the way, Republicans in Washington seemed to recognize the threat she posed, with a Karl Rove-assisted organization spending significant sums in California to take her downbefore her star could rise. It didn’t work, but advisers point to the effort as an eye-opening, even formative moment for Harris; a taste of the bare-knuckled partisan politics that would await her out east.
Look, if you are so clearly susceptible to pressure to print smear pieces that undermin confidence that stretch truth and fail with critical thinking... It's your journalistic integrity that's tarnished.

'It you run into an a**hole in the morning, you ran into an a**hole. If run into a**holes the whole day, maybe you're the a**hole?' I don't know that it's her approach that's the problem.
Tell me why she sucks at her job without telling me why she sucks at her job
We shall see who laughs last. KamalaHarris 💛
And, she’s not terribly bright, nor is she particularly talented at anything.
She dropped out of the primaries before the first vote in Iowa, and then was selected for VP. It doesn’t get more insider.
She was a senator for several years. How is she an “outsider” and “unfamiliar” with navigating the swamp?
