The following article, Biden at War with Kamala Harris, was first published on The Black Sphere.
Joe Biden may be exacting his revenge in getting tossed aside for the Black “side chick”. And he appears to be making it known in passive-aggressive ways.
While Kamala Harris and the media minions perpetuate the lie that Biden dutifully stepped aside, we all know this is a lie. Biden knows that he won in 2020 through cheating. And the idea of him winning again would be for the same reason. The problem with Joe Biden is his numbers dropped so low, the cabal could no longer sell the idea of his popularity.
So Harris got the nod. And only because she was in the VP slot. In a fair primary process, Harris loses by a mile, just like 2020.
Politico mentioned the potential rift between Biden and his Number Two. Apparently Joe Biden appeared to be throwing Harris under the bus for her comments on Hurricane Helene.
While Harris has promoted race-based FEMA funding, Biden appeared more focused on delivering broad federal aid and maintaining a neutral stance, even in his contentious relationship with DeSantis. Biden’s response to criticism about the hurricane relief also contrasted with Harris’s more politicized approaches.
Kamala yesterday accused Gov. DeSantis of “playing political games” with the incoming hurricane in Florida.
Today, Biden said that DeSantis “has been cooperative” and is “doing a great job.”

Additionally, on broader policy issues, Biden has not fully aligned with Harris on topics like immigration and criminal justice reform, adding to the perception of underlying tension within their administration. I wrote not long ago that Biden isn’t doing much campaigning with Harris. But it’s unclear who doesn’t want that. Nevertheless, the lack of strong public collaboration on key issues has fueled rumors of passive-aggressive tactics as Biden distances himself from some of Harris’s positions and vice-versa.
Interestingly, on The View Harris suggested that she stands by Biden’s positions, and had a hand in their development.
Kamala claims she’ll have a Republican in her cabinet…
On a show that does nothing but talk about how Republicans are evil.

This stance is new, given Harris-Walz slogan is a “Turn the Page”.
The slogan signals a shift away from Biden-Harris policies in the eyes of many. This new messaging suggests a fresh start and departure from the current administration’s mixed record. And who can blame them, when you consider the Biden-Harris record on inflation, crime, and foreign policy.
While Kamala Harris’ continued involvement prevents Harris from cutting the umbilical cord from Biden completely, that remaining tether presents a problem for the Harris-Walz attempt to distance itself from Biden-Harris. Critics of Biden see this slogan as a not-so-subtle acknowledgment that his policies, particularly on the economy and foreign policy, have failed to meet expectations.
As JD Vance indicated during the VP debate, Walz has the difficult job of arguing against the success of the Trump administration and for the failures of the Biden-Harris administration. Balance that dilemma with maintaining part of the broader Democratic narrative.
Some observers believe that Harris is attempting the impossible. She’s trying to appeal to both moderates and progressives by embracing “change” without directly undermining the accomplishments of the current administration. However, critics argue that Harris is walking a tightrope. She must reconcile a desire for “change” while simultaneously defending Biden’s record on key issues.
How important is Biden in the equation? Not very.
But any alienation of his base is not good news for the sputtering campaign of Harris-Walz. And things won’t improve for the undynamic duo, as they line up “soft” media in an effort to improve their images.
The move away from Biden is further complicated by the flip-flopping of Harris, and the continual lies by Walz.
I don’t expect Biden to do Harris any favors between now and the election. I don’t believe Biden ever thought of Harris as presidential material, as he was forced to pick her. Further, I believe Biden secretly doesn’t want Harris to win, as it would mitigate his fake win against Trump. After all, not just anybody should be able to beat Trump.
The good news is Biden won’t have to worry about a Harris presidency.
