It is a complete mess under the Biden administration.
Joe Biden is a rambling, incoherent man who doesn’t do anything about the problems he faces every day. Indeed, when he has done things, he’s made the situation worse, such as at the border, where he removed the things that had been working that President Donald Trump put in place. He also appointed Kamala Harris to address issues at the border — and that’s only made it worse.
Picking Harris as a second didn’t help Biden at all; indeed, her approval numbers are as dismal as his.
Another Kamala employee is heading for the exits this week. There have been so many now, I’m almost starting to lose count. According to the NY Post, it’s eight. Kate Childs Graham, Harris’ chief speechwriter, is heading for the door at the end of February.
“People are thrown under the bus from the very top, there are short fuses and it’s an abusive environment. It’s not a healthy environment and people often feel mistreated. It’s not a place where people feel supported but a place where people feel treated like s—,” another source told Politico, which cited 22 current and former Harris aides in its report.
The other people who have fled include four other senior staffers — spokesperson Symone Sanders, communications director Ashley Etienne, director of press operations Peter Velz, and Vince Evans, deputy director of the Office of Public Engagement and Intergovernmental Affairs, amid reports terming Harris a “bully” who attacked the staff with “constant-soul destroying criticism.” They even had one staffer post a creepy, hostage-type picture of how much he loved working for Harris after the staff was encouraged to do so.
But now, just like Biden, Harris thinks the reason she isn’t liked is just an image problem. According to the LA Times, she’s trying to change that, but don’t you dare call it a “reboot” (as she tries to reboot herself yet again). Like Biden, it seems that her main problem is the need to meet more people.
Harris and her team want to help Harris become a successful vice president. The plan involves getting her on the road — campaigning and selling policy and representing the administration abroad. Harris also began doing national news interviews more often, but these have not always been successful.
She appeared flustered, for example, last month on the “Today” show, drawing mockery for her response to a question about strategies on combating COVID-19. “It is time for us to do what we have been doing, and that time is every day,” she said.
In February, we reported about this pathetic comment. However, just as Biden, you wouldn’t put someone like that in more public speaking roles. Plus it isn’t that the American people haven’t seen them enough; the problem is that we have seen them too much. Their actions or inactions are the real problem, and not just their words. That’s why their approval is in the toilet.
Let’s look at a recent example of how this “not a reboot” is doing. Harris was asked in an interview about her position that she’s working on the “root causes in Central America” of illegal immigration but so far, the numbers have increased rather than decreased the reporter says. The interview asks her, “What has gone wrong so far?”

Notice she doesn’t even answer the question. She simply says she’s looking at root causes.
But this whole “root causes” answer is just so much nonsense. You need to invest a lot time in understanding why so many people cross the border from the south. Even Biden said they’re still trying to figure it out, “I think one of the fundamental things we’ve got to do in addition to some of the changes we’ll make, which we won’t get into it today, is that if we figure out why they’re leaving in the first place.”
D’oh.
They’re coming because we have a great country with opportunities that they don’t have in their own countries. It’s why people have come here from all over the world for more than 200 years. Even if you spent all the time and money in the world, you couldn’t change the problems in all the countries of the world of the people coming. They’re not just coming from Central America.
Because we are what we are, they will still be coming. The only way that you could prevent that would be to change the United States from a free nation into more like the places that they are coming from — destroying freedoms and economic opportunity. Is that the reason they’re trying so hard to prevent that from happening here?
But not only hasn’t Harris been going to the border, she also hasn’t even been on top of the “root causes” thing, as the Guatemalan president revealed. He said he hadn’t heard from Harris since she visited in June 2021.
You would lock your front door and secure your home if you live in high-crime areas. You wouldn’t sit there talking about the reasons for the crime, while the criminals were walking through your door. You wouldn’t leave the door open.
But that’s what the Biden team did when they came in. They stopped what had been working under Trump and now not only haven’t shut the door, they’re even releasing>/a> illegal alien single adult males into the country, even though they’re supposed to be expelled under Title 42 — not to mention ordinary immigration laws. It’s one of the reasons that half of likely voters want Biden impeached, according to a new Rasmussen poll.
No, the problem for both Biden and Harris isn’t an image problem. It’s that they’re both horrific in their jobs — and Americans know it. It’s hard to change that basic fact.
