AND THIS — there's so much to do but this is the future administration of the most powerful country in the world STARTING TO GET IT.

Not just a running mate--a sidekick.

"PHILADELPHIA — A crowd of thousands went absolutely nuts over Vice President Kamala Harris’ new running mate, the previously little-known Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, who energized an audience at a Temple University arena into almost ear-splitting decibels of excitement on Tuesday."https://www.huffpost.com/entry/kamala-harris-tim-walz-running-mate-philadelphia_n_66b2be69e4b0551015a185fb

Non-Binary Broke Their Brains - by Jay Kuo - The Status Kuo

The GOP can’t handle non-binary thinking. There are two clear, recent examples of this.
You probably heard the first one. On Wednesday, in a session with the National Association of Black Journalists, Donald Trump called into question Kamala Harris’s race, saying that he always knew her before as “Indian” until she “happened to turn Black,” causing gasps from the audience.
The second took place largely online in connection with the Olympics. Trump had posted a video of a boxing match at the Olympics, promising “I WILL KEEP MEN OUT OF WOMEN’S SPORTS!”

Pete Buttigieg on Kamala Harris’s Campaign, VP Vetting, & JD Vance | The Daily Show - YouTube

“What’s the point of having a conversation if you’re not speaking to people who don’t already agree with you?” Pete Buttigieg talks to Jon Stewart about why he goes on Fox News, the significance of President Joe Biden stepping aside to make room for Kamala Harris as the presumptive Democratic nominee, the possibility of being vetted for vice president, and his thoughts on Trump’s own VP pick, JD Vance.

Harris pushes cease-fire after Netanyahu meets with her, Biden separately - ABC News

Harris said that she talked to Netanyahu about her "serious concern" about the collateral damage and suffering of Gazan civilians.
"With over 2 million people facing high levels of food insecurity, and half a million people facing catastrophic levels of acute food insecurity. What has happened in Gaza over the past nine months is devastating; the images of dead children and desperate, hungry people fleeing for safety, sometimes displaced for the second, third or fourth time," she said.

Today I learned that there's a name for people like me.

What's Generation Jones? Meet those on the Gen X/boomer cusp - Upworthy

"Xennial" is the nickname for those who fall on the cusp of Gen X and millennial, but there's also a lesser-known microgeneration that straddles Gen X and baby boomers. The folks born from 1954 to 1965 are known as Generation Jones, and they've been thrust into the spotlight as people try to figure out what generation to consider 59-year-old Vice President Kamala Harris.

Hold the phone, Leeroy.

Harris has also been abroad as Biden's stand-in, thus being already familiar on the world stage. Hillary worked her arse off as Sec. of State, but the world wasn't in a state back then like it is now, so Harris has been double-teaming with Blinken.

As someone here pointed out, and it bears repeated by multiple people that #VicePresidentHarris hasn't done a lot outside of DC that most VPs do because she had to spend all of her time in Washington breaking tie votes. She's broken more tie votes that any other VP in US history. The last VP to do even close to this much was John C Calhoun. The #vicepresident is supposed to be a boring ass job where tie breaking is rare so they go out and do stuff the president asks them to do. Instead she's had to essentially keep her senator role, and ONLY because republicans refuse to compromise on ANYTHING. Don't let people tell you she hasn't been doing anything, she's worked harder than any other VP in history. She'd love to enjoy her fun VP side projects but she's literally too busy for that. Haven't heard much from her in the past 4 years? Blame the #republicans

Looked back at my old choice rankings for the 2020 election primary
Warren was my top choice as of January, followed by surprisingly #Klobachar because I believed social media misinformation was the most important thing and #Warren and Klobachar had the strongest stances on it. I have Xs on #Harris ranking in Nov and Dec but shot to number 3 in Jan which I'm guessing means she announced later than everyone else. #Bernie had been number 2 but after basically calling Warren a liar and not seriously apologizing to Warren after one of his staff did a smear campaign on her, he was bumped to number 4 after Harris. #Yang had been number 3 but I guess dropped out in January. Actually Bernie was at number 5 behind a hypothetical Biden/Abrams Ticket at 4th place. In the end being in a late state I ended up voting for Bernie to give him more sway in convention. So I didn't realize just how much I favored Harris at the time. After that point I stopped keeping track and people dropped out ridiculously quickly once #Biden won SC. I'm guessing she also had some understanding of the tech problem or I wouldn't have put her in the coveted #3 spot.
Harris had not yet stepped into the race I guess at the time of filming of this video

Kamala Harris is Trump’s worst nightmare: She’s a strong, successful Black woman (and more!)

Let’s be clear: Calling a person of color a DEI hire is what racism looks like. It springs from the white supremacist myth that people of color are inherently inferior to white people, hence, we can only achieve success and visible positions with the help of a program.

Conservatives' First Attack on Kamala Harris... Pronouns and Accessibility?

Within moments, several right-wing accounts posted the same video from 2022: a video of Vice President Harris sitting at a table and addressing a group of people, where she introduces herself by listing her pronouns and describing her clothing. She says, “Good afternoon, I want to welcome these leaders for coming in and having this very important discussion about some of the most pressing issues of our time. I am Kamala Harris, my pronouns are she and her, and I am a woman sitting at the table wearing a blue suit.”

Somehow, in Republican minds being inclusive is a bad thing. While speaking to a "room full of disability rights leaders."

chill the fuck out, we’ve got this - by Jeff Tiedrich

Joe Biden remains a master at doing politics. Dark Brandon dark-brandoned the shit out of his passing of the torch. clearly, this wasn’t a spur-of-the-moment decision. Joe had to have worked behind the scenes to shore up this much immediate support for Kamala. he made sure not one word of any this leaked. he timed the announcement of his decision so that Donny and the Republicans spent the entire convention running against the wrong candidate.

How pro-LGBTQ+ is Kamala Harris?

She was elected to the U.S. Senate in 2016. She received perfect 100 scores on the Human Rights Campaign Congressional Scorecard, which measures support for LGBTQ+ equality, before leaving the Senate to become vice president. Her record likewise includes perfect ratings from reproductive rights groups such as Planned Parenthood Action Fund, NARAL Pro-Choice America (now known as Reproductive Freedom for All), and NARAL Pro-Choice California.
