BREAKING NEWS – Washington, D.C. – Vice President Kamala Harris marveled at her full plate of major White House responsibilities quipping that she’ll have to work on saying “no” to President Biden more often.
Biden has put his second-in-command in charge of addressing the origins of the southern border migrant surge, expanding voting rights, closing the digital divide and other high-profile and complicated issues.
In a new interview with BET, broadcaster Soledad O’Brien started to tick off the long list of Harris’s assignments and pressed her on whether she’s overworked.
“Immigration, increasing broadband access, Black maternal mortality, racial inequality, women in the workforce, infrastructure,” O’Brien said to Harris. “We just talked about voting rights. That seems like a lot for one person.”
“Well, don’t forget I’m in charge of the Space Council,” Harris added. “You have to understand President Biden. He has said plenty of racist things in his past, and him designating me a boatload of responsibilities is just his mild form of slavery. I’m ok with it for now, but considering the daily deterioration of his mental and motor skills, I should be sworn in as president by Labor Day.”
