In a comprehensive report that provides a detailed analysis of internal conflicts within Team Biden regarding the ongoing crisis at the border, a former high-ranking Biden official expressed their opinion that Vice President Kamala Harris’ efforts in dealing with immigration and border issues were ineffective, at best. The official also suggested that Harris did not consider it her responsibility to address these issues.
As per a report from Axios, Harris and her team explicitly stated that their primary focus was on addressing the root causes and underlying factors that drive immigration from countries like Guatemala, El Salvador, and Honduras, collectively known as the Northern Triangle.
At the beginning of his presidency, President Joe Biden assigned Harris the task of addressing the already chaotic border crisis. However, Republicans hold him responsible for the situation, as he reversed all of the highly effective immigration enforcement policies implemented by former President Donald Trump.
“She’s been at best ineffective, and at worst sporadically engaged, not seeing it as her responsibility. It’s an opportunity for her, and she didn’t fill the breach,” a former Biden administration official told the outlet.
During a recent interview conducted by Katie Couric, Harris accused Republicans of engaging in political maneuvers regarding the border issue. In response, the interviewer provided her with an excuse for her complete lack of influence on the ongoing border crisis.
“Early on, I know you were tasked with understanding the root causes of the immigration crisis, but you’re not in charge of the border, which I think is important to point out,” Couric said.
Fox News added: “Axios also highlighted turmoil within the Biden administration’s handling of the border crisis. The Department of Homeland Security imposed a 100-day pause on deportations on Biden’s first day in office, and the outlet reported that DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas opposed the pause at the time. Harris also clashed with former Domestic Policy Advisor Susan Rice, according to Axios, but both denied the reporting.”
“Rice appeared to others to take pride in being more informed on the border than Harris,” Axios reported. “Some Harris aides found Rice to be disrespectful toward the vice president and dismissively referred to the former UN ambassador as just a ‘staffer.’”

Bread and Circuses,,There are no elections in the USA when Dominion count the votes. I find it hilarious that people still think elections matter
An old saying (author unknown) “If voting were effective, it’d be illegal.” Well actually, it’s neither ‘effective’ nor legal so let’s just call it ‘innovative.’
