Vice President-elect Kamala Harris will resign her Senate seat on Monday, two days before she and President-elect Joe Biden are sworn in. California Gov. Gavin Newsom plans to appoint Alex Padilla, California's secretary of state, to replace Harris.

will resign her Senate seat on Monday, two days before she and President-elect Joe Biden are inaugurated.

Padilla will be the first Latino senator from California, where about 40% of residents are Hispanic. Newsom announced his choice in December, following intense lobbying for the rare Senate vacancy from the nation’s most populous state.Harris will give no farewell Senate floor speech. The Senate is not scheduled to reconvene until Tuesday, the eve of Inauguration Day.

Harris will be the first Black woman and first woman of South Asian descent to serve as vice president, but her Senate departure leaves the chamber’s roster without a Black woman. Harris was just the second Black woman senator, winning her California election 17 years after Democrat Carol Moseley Braun finished a single term representing Illinois.

Democrats were in the minority during Harris’ four years on Capitol Hill. Perhaps her biggest mark came as a fierce questioner of judicial nominees and other witnesses as a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee.

Why isn’t there an election to replace her? Such an important position.

That's an improvement.

Don’t retire girl. Make them fire you so you get the unemployment.

☕️. Sip

While she's giving up her Senate seat I wish she would give up the 'down to Earth' Chucks wearin' schtick. Those interviews are the most puke worthy interviews of any VP I've ever seen.

Kamala sleeps w. a married man to even get where shes at, screwed over innocent ppl. Her track record is horrendous. And she only became VP bc Joe ' i like kids jumpn on my lap vote for me or you ain't black ' Biden was threatened by BLM. Joe didn't want Kamala truthscoming

Congratulations Kamala

Very important! Please listen to General Mcinerney! Please share and show President Trump some support!

🙏🇺🇸👍

yooo this scared me, i thought she was gonna resign as vice president lmaooo

Riiiight....no wonder Gavin hasn't distributed the vaccine shots yet to the people of California. They play politics while the vaccine is kept in warehouses....

Nasty woman

So if anything happened to her between Monday and Wednesday what's plan B?

May wanna wait. No one wants y’all in. You stole a election. Eating popcorn til you are y’all exposed.

Not for long jail is you portion and Biden

Heels up Harris

Kamala you or sick Biden have no smarts to lead our Country! Those who voted you in will find out the hard way! God Bless America!

A woman of color should have been appointed to Kamala’s seat—especially when it was women of color like staceyabrams that organized and flipped the Senate for Democrats. The ratio of men to women is in the Senate is still ridiculous and archaic.

Who does Kamala represent? Emd the Globalist Occupation of the World

No KamalaHarris I want you to be there to vote to impeach Trump first, please don’t resign till Inauguration Day.

Agree. Arrest & Jail All proTrump terrorists rioters at The Capitol Hill. 6 Dead inc Police Officers FBI & Social media has all these terrorists faces & photos. Producers MSNBC CNN ABC CBSNews ❌Stop using smiling photos of proTrump GOP rioters Rep & Senators ImpeachTrump

Alex Padilla?!

Remind us all again how many arrests were made during the riots in the city of Seattle? City of Portland? City of Richmond? City of Chicago? DemocratsAreCorrupt

mkmilitarymom Does anyone else think the Republicans might try to sneak something in while the seat is vacant, albeit briefly?

This headline is disputed.

I think Kamala Harris is a big mistake for America.

I thought Harris was saying Biden was a racist with her 'that little girl was me' story? I thought Biden was a sexual predator when Harris said she believed his accuser? She is either a born liar or doesn't mind working for a racist sexual predator, which is it? She is an ahole

She was never for the people as a senator or will as a fraudulent Vice President

I feel like you should have to resign your elected position if you are seeking a new one.

Will AOC be eligible to take the seat? We need a smart sexy lady to pass the TimeAndThreeQuarters Act. To raise the Federal minimum overtime wage to TimeAnd3Quarters It has never been raised since inception in 1936!

Well, she didn’t have to sleep her way to a job like she did in San Francisco, but she did have lie to the American people to be VP.

The q anons won’t accept this. The whole reason she never resigned was because she knew she wasn’t going to be inaugurated

Is tedcruz next?!

I'm sorry I misread. I thought it said she was resigning from her position as vice president-elect

Ok never mind

Is she still Vice President

CA_Dem takes care of its own. At least this time Alex Padilla counted my DNC primary vote. Eventually.

On a FEDERAL holiday that honors...MLKDay2021 Hope she will steal another good quote for us. What you say KamalaHarris?

She wants the big chair so bad she can taste it!!!! If I were Biden I’d get a food taster!!!!

How y’all feeling trumpanzees y’all was saying something was up since Kamala hadn’t resigned from her senate seat yet. welp what y’all got to say now 👂🏽👂🏽👂🏽

Any chance we can take up a collection and get her to retire to an island someplace?

When will she resign as Vice President?

Fake News, it won’t happen.

GOP Transition46 womensmarch 🛎🌅

Good

Good - she needs to head the DOJ.

Wish KH , incoming Vice President all the best.

We love to see it🥺✨

Will she Resign before or after she gets arrested for treason?

🖕AP🖕 you socialist organization 🖕

At least its a safe seat for the dems in CA. Need to keep the senate majority at ALL cost.

mayaj1973 I trust there will not be a temporary void in that senate seat that SnitchMitch could take advantage of... He would if he could!

Don't do it! Two days is more than enough time for Mitch to ram some god awful rule change through!

The most ambitious politician in the world pulls the curtain on Act I to prepare for the biggest stage in the world. Her opponents keep underestimating her. Would they do the same if she was white & male?

karatdawn How is Monday two days before Tuesday!?

So... who is Alex Padilla?

Ready to put all the black men in jail again..? Bet she can’t wait.. she single handedly gave black men sentences they didn’t deserve! if you think that putting her as president in a few weeks will be a good thing it will be a catastrophe!

Whatever came of the question of eligibility due to her not being born in the United States?

Such an accomplishment to be picked because of her gender and race .

Last minute.

This isn’t news.

Awesome. Cunt.

🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

Huh, figured she could do it all.😋

The U.S. Congress must impeach Harris, Waters, and Pelosi for their high crimes and misdemeanors. Inciting violence and insurrection. 'Healing' the nation requires equal application of impeachment powers. Review the evidence against them here:

will her replacement be sworn in on the same day?

I’m not doing anything important if Padilla isn’t interested!

BLM win,MAGA loss

It’s a shame the VP Harris is the only woman qualified to be senator in California.

سوف تستقيل نائبة الرئيس المنتخب كامالا_هاريس من مقعدها في مجلس الشيوخ يوم الاثنين . و كان الحاكم جافين نيوسوم على علم بقرارها ، مما مهد الطريق أمامه لتعيين زميله الديموقراطي أليكس باديا، وزير_خارجية كاليفورنيا الآن ، ليخدم العامين الأخيرين من ولاية هاريس في مجلس_الشيوخ.

We are so happy for both Kamala becoming our VP and Alex moving into the Senate.

President-elect Kamala Harris

Another Latino in Congress is a good thing

Get it over with and send me my stimulus. I'm ready to move on dammit.

Karen Bass should have gotten the Seat.....

F GavinNewsom for appointing a man to fill Harris' seat. Newsom lost so much respect for his COVID response but appointing Padilla was the last straw to any support I had left for him.

Finally confident enough or was corrupt Alex holding out for a better deal? Glad to see her gone but sad to see the turd that replaced the current turd. But when you have a team of failures can California really expect much? Who did Alex sleep with to win?

. Cali use to be the state to move too. Not anymore. Your gov leaders f’ed that up. You couldn’t pay me to move there now. Mass exodus. Pleople rather live in Texas and Florida, Including Elon Musk🤭 That speaks volumes. California = close to full blown communism.

I wonder id GavinNewsom will attempt to sell her seat of too? harris

She may want to wait.

Yesterday I told my parents about what jaredpolis said about the vaccines. My parents are over 70 and have been calling around about getting them. My mom said she saw Azar on TV saying there were plenty the other day. I said he was lying. She said I was! Thanks AlexAzar
