Kamala Harris Doesn't Care About Solving the Border Crisis

With the exception of those who may have glanced at the February edition of Vogue magazine or recently browsed the New York Times style section, we have not seen or heard much from Kamala Harris since she was sworn in as the 49th vice president of the United States on January 20.

On March 24, the vice president's low visibility seemed likely to change when President Biden tapped Harris to lead the ongoing border crisis that has spiraled out of control since his Executive Orders on immigration have reversed many of former President Trump's immigration policies, including Trump's "Zero tolerance" stance on prosecuting illegal border crossings.

Harris is the "Most qualified person" to lead the effort, Biden said after anointing the vice president the border czar.

She has refused to visit the southern border because, in her words, "We have to deal with COVID issues." Yet Harris has found the time to visit several other states to promote the Biden administration's infrastructure plan and other initiatives.

"While we are clear that people should not come to the border now, we also understand that we will enforce the law and that we also - because we can chew gum and walk at the same time - must address the root causes that cause people to make the trek," Harris said on March 24.

The good news is that at a conference on Tuesday, Harris finally announced what she believes to be the root causes of the border surge.

Biden recently concluded in a rare interview that his administration has "Now gotten control" of the border situation, which means that Harris will have plenty of time to work on her crocheting.
