She also has confided in them about the difficulties she is facing with the intractable issues in her portfolio, such as voting rights and the root causes of migration.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Harris and Clinton reportedly talk every couple of months, and Clinton visited the White House last month to visit Harris.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is a double standard; it\u2019s sadly alive and well,\u201d Clinton claimed without evidence in an interview with The New York Times. \u201cA lot of what is being used to judge her, just like it was to judge me, or the women who ran in 2020, or everybody else, is really colored by that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The report highlighted numerous issues that Harris has had with completing her job while not irking fellow Democrats, including Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) and Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX).<\/p>\n<p>Cuellar reached out to Harris to discuss Biden\u2019s border crisis as she was planning on visiting the region over the summer, and he never heard back from her.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI say this very respectfully to her: I moved on,\u201d Cuellar said. \u201cShe was tasked with that job, it doesn\u2019t look like she\u2019s very interested in this, so we are going to move on to other folks that work on this issue.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cuellar told the newspaper that he would take his further concerns to Biden officials and not Harris officials because \u201cat least they talk to you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The New York Times highlighted a purported example from Harris\u2019 past of how she allegedly treats people:<\/p>\n<p><em>Gil Duran, who worked for Ms. Harris when she was California attorney general in 2013, said she could be insulting and unprofessional. Mr. Duran said he quit after five months on the job when Ms. Harris declined to attend a briefing before a news conference, but then berated a staff member to the point of tears when she felt unprepared.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cA lot of us would still be with her if she was the Kamala Harris we thought she would be,\u201d Mr. Duran said.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Harris recently appeared to admit that the administration did not anticipate a rise in new coronavirus variants and thus was unprepared to respond.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe didn\u2019t see Delta coming. I think most scientists did not \u2014 upon whose advice and direction we have relied \u2014 didn\u2019t see Delta coming,\u201d Harris told the Los Angeles Times in an interview. \u201cWe didn\u2019t see Omicron coming. And that\u2019s the nature of what this, this awful virus has been, which as it turns out, has mutations and variants.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Los Angeles Times <a href=\"https:\/\/www.latimes.com\/politics\/story\/2021-12-17\/kamala-harris-in-interview-says-administration-did-not-anticipate-omicron-variant\">reported<\/a>:<\/p>\n<p><em>President Biden celebrated \u201cindependence\u201d from the virus in an upbeat July 4 speech, saying, \u201cWhile the virus hasn\u2019t been vanquished, we know this: It no longer controls our lives. It no longer paralyzes our nation. And it\u2019s within our power to make sure it never does again.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>At the time, some public health experts warned that his optimism was premature, given that the Delta variant was already a significant threat. Harris denied that the administration declared victory prematurely, or ever.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have not been victorious over it,\u201d Harris added. \u201cI don\u2019t think that in any regard anyone can claim victory when, you know, there are 800,000 people who are dead because of this virus.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
