Just as they were ignoring her mishandling – or lack of handling – of the southern border crisis and her other duties, the broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, and NBC) avoided covering Vice President Kamala Harris’s latest embarrassment: hiring child actors to play the role of kids interested in going to space and careers in the sciences for a YouTube video. Funny thing is, they hired the kids through Sinking Ship Entertainment.
It is hard to make it up!
U.K.-based Daily Mail The story was broken on Monday but the networks weren’t interested. Instead, ABC’s World News Tonight CBS Evening NewsPlease see the following: NBC Nightly NewsThey were all busy extolling how Paul McCartney had blamed John Lennon on the breakup of The Beatles.
And on Tuesday, those same broadcasts spent time decrying Texas Governor Greg Abbott’s executive order banning vaccine mandates.
Again, it was up to the television network that wasn’t beholden to the Biden administration to share the embarrassing truth. “The White House is denying Vice President Kamala Harris’s office hired child actors for a video about space exploration. But child actors are in that video,” announced Special Report anchor Bret Baier on Fox News Channel.
Adding: “This comes as Harris makes plans to increase her visibility on the midterm campaign circuit.”
Peter Doocy (White House correspondent) highlighted one particularly embarrassing soundbite in the YouTube video. The Vice President encouraged the actors confidence and to pursue their dreams.
HARRIS: They will ask you who and where you’re from. You got that?
KID:
“It’s unclear what that child intends to be, but right now he’s an actor,” Doocy said. “A Canadian production company, Sinking Ship [Entertainment], apparently held auditions for that shoot at the Naval Observatory.”
And the White House didn’t really deny that they needed to use child actors around Harris. According to a statement to Fox News, they just didn’t do the auditions. “The Vice President’s office did not select the kids who participated in the YouTube Originals special,” they said.
Doocy displayed her other policy failures in addition to the embarrassment.
DOOCY : This portfolio is made up of immigration —
JOE BIDDEN, PRESIDENT: She’s probably the best qualified to do this.
DOOCY: She’s perceived as too quiet by critics.
SEN. MARSHA BLACKBURN (R-TN): I had a rancher yesterday look to me yesterday and he said, “Where’s Kamala?”
DOOCY: Voting rights remain stalled, despite the June promise.
BIDEN: With her leadership and your support, we’re going to overcome again.
DOOCY – And space, even if the VP hasn’t called any National Space Council meetings.
“Now, if Harris is going to hit the road on behalf of Democratic candidates it’s entirely unclear what she will point to as a win that she delivered. That’s something that could also complicate her political future if the President decides not to run for reelection,” he concluded.

[Cuts to video]
PETER DOOCY: If things aren’t going well at the White House, Democratic majorities could soon be in jeopardy and the Vice President knows it, telling donors, quote, “Well, you’re talking about 2022. That seems kind of early and maybe it does, but really, it’s not.” The Vice President’s portfolio includes immigration —
JOE BIDDEN, PRESIDENT: She’s probably the best qualified to do this.
DOOCY – Which her critics claim she is too quiet about.
SEN. MARSHA BLACKBURN (R-TN): I had a rancher yesterday look to me yesterday and he said, “Where’s Kamala?”
DOOCY: Voting rights are still stalled despite June’s promise.
BIDEN: With her leadership and your support, we’re going to overcome again.
DOOCY – And space, even if the VP has yet to convene any National Space Council meetings.
KAMALA MALA HARRIS, VICE PRESIDENT: They will ask you who you are and how you know yourself. Then they’ll tell you what your intentions are. Did you get that?
KIDS:
DOOCY: It’s unclear what that child intends to be, but right now he’s an actor. Sinking Ship Productions is a Canadian production company that apparently auditioned for the Naval Observatory shoot. But a White House official insists to Fox, quote, “The Vice President’s office did not select the kids who participated in the YouTube Originals special.”
HARRIS: Doesn’t this sound like something?
DOOCY: Joe Biden was a Vice President and knew exactly what he was doing when he assigned Harris high-profile tasks.
BIDEN: We became a group and elected a Vice President. That means that she receives every assignment. [Laughs]
[Cuts back to live]
DOOCY. Now that Harris has decided to travel on behalf of Democratic candidate, it is not clear what victory she will claim. That’s something that could also complicate her political future if the President decides not to run for reelection. Bret?
BAIER: Peter Doocy at the White House Briefing Room. Thanks, Peter.
