"Harris, in fact, laughed while responding to a question from a reporter Monday who asked if she'd be heading south soon. She replied with what some called a cackle, "Not today." (Fox News) "The Biden administration is putting out a call for government volunteers to report for duty amid the significant surge at the border, but many are asking, Where is the person deputized to 'fix' the line-in-the-sand crisis? "As the immigration mess at the southern border gets more and more out of hand, Vice President Kamala Harris remains inexplicably silent."Except when she's giggling, that is.
"Even after President Biden officially tapped the VP Wednesday to lead in response to border challenges, there aren't any plans for her to travel south or even address the issue. According to the Office of the Vice President, Harris had no events this past weekend and no mention of border-related activity. (Fox News) "This comes as the Biden administration is now asking for government volunteers to help manage the migrant surge. The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) has sent memos to agency heads seeking "volunteer deployments" for up to 120 days, Fox News confirmed. "We are actively working to screen, process and deploy these volunteers while continuing our recruitment efforts and exploration of other avenues to bolster staff resources at the border," an OPM spokesperson said."
"Recently, Harris has been spotted checking out the 9,000 square-foot mansion – even stopping by for an hour-long visit three weeks ago, according to CNN. "Harris knew at the time of inauguration that she wouldn't immediately be moving into her residence since repairs were required that are easier conducted with an unoccupied home. "An administration official revealed some of the work required was renovating the mansion's seven chimneys. "While Blair House is comfortable and luxurious, Harris has a tendency to prefer more informal, modern and sleek accommodations. In January, Harris moved out of her minimalist condo in D.C. to Blair House. "The more than 100 rooms of Blair House include a gym, private hair salon and thousands of antiques and museum-quality pieces. "The Blair House has been called 'the world's most exclusive hotel' as it primarily is used as a guest house for visiting foreign leaders, dignitaries and other guests of the president.Seems that the only antique she has now is temporary Democrat President Joe Biden.
"Harris moved from her sleek, minimalist D.C. condo to Blair House upon inauguration. (Daily Mail) "Her condo was light and airy and modern, cohesive with her more informal style – unlike the formal and antique nature of Blair House. "Biden spoke fondly of his time living at One Observatory Circle, particularly lauding the heated pool, which was installed by former Vice President Dan Quayle. 'You're on 80 acres, overlooking the rest of the city,' Biden said. 'You can walk out, and there's a swimming pool.' 'You can ride a bicycle around and never leave the property, and work out – but the White House is very different,' he lauded. "The vice president, however, could be contributing to the delays despite her complaints. "According to two administration staff with knowledge of the ongoing updates to the residence Harris, who likes to cook, requested work be done to the kitchen."This is apparently what happens when a senator, installed as VP, climbs up to "Of The Manor Born" status. Heaven and Earth must be moved to get the kitchen work done in the VP mansion, while no one—including the VP—is coming to the rescue of the thousands of migrant children housed in government "cages".
