Kamala Harris Asking Wall Street CEOs, Business Leaders For Advice
Another in a continuing series titled 'I don't have a fucking clue what I'm doing'...
[NY Post] - Vice President Kamala Harris has frequently sought guidance from well-known Wall Street executives and business leaders as the Biden administration contends with a series of policy challenges at home and abroad, according to a report Wednesday.
I follow this shit pretty closely; this is the first time I've heard about it.
The outreach has occurred as Harris seeks to navigate various obstacles, including an ongoing border crisis, supply chain disruptions that have contributed to rising inflation and a Democrat-led push for federal voting rights legislation.
All three of which were caused / supported by this administration.
The executives, who include Microsoft president Brad Smith, Citigroup Inc. CEO Jane Fraser and several others, have served as "informal advisers" to Harris, Bloomberg reported. The vice president has spoken with the leaders in a variety of forums, including telephone calls and strategy meetings.
What exactly they are 'advising' her on is completely absent from the story. Click on the link if you want your intelligence further insulted.

#6 Actually in all seriousness she's probably setting up her "Leadership PAC": this allows a politician to pocket unspent campaign funds and/or use the money to pay for lobbying efforts on behalf of foreign governmental or US corporate clients ... like Microsoft and Citigroup.

Either way, run or no run, KamalHo's 8-figure fortune is ensured.

#12 /\ "Root cause of migration."

Money for the migrants. Money and power for the DNC. Does Harris have other questions ?

#13 My recommendation to her is to retire and leave public life. If she feels the need for attention, there are suitable venues in Tijuana and Bangkok for her talents.

#20 Re #18: I believe that the Vice President has two duties:
1. Vote to break ties in the Senate
2. Wake up, ask if the President is still alive. If so, go back to sleep.
