Vice President Kamala Harris revealed on Monday that she is not only “the daughter of a woman,” but “the granddaughter of a woman” as well.
During an interview with CNN, Harris said, “And I couldn’t believe it, I couldn’t believe it. Um, ’cause they actually did it. And here’s what they did, they – the court actually took a constitutional right that has been recognized for half a century, and took it from the women of America.”
“That’s shocking,” Harris continued. “When you think about it in terms of what that means, in terms of democratic principles, in terms of the ideals upon which we were founded, about liberty, about freedom. Um, you know, I thought about it as, you know, a parent, we have two children who are in their twenties. A son and daughter.”
Harris added that she “thought about it as a godparent of teenagers, I thought about it as an aunt of preschool children -”
“And as a woman yourself,” the host reminded Harris.
“And as a woman myself,” the vice president responded on cue. “And as the daughter of a woman, and a granddaughter of a woman.”

Fox News host Tucker Carlson slammed Vice President Kamala Harris as “historically incompetent and fake” last week, castigating defenders who claim all criticism of her is rooted in sexism and “anti-blackness.”
“Now, if you watch the show, you know that for more than a year now, we’ve had a pretty conventional understanding of this country’s first Black/Indian/part Canadian vice president who also happens to identify as a woman,” Carlson said. “Now, we’ve assumed that Kamala Harris was historically unpopular because she’s historically incompetent and fake.”
“We assume she earned her low approval numbers,” Carlson continued. “We’re not alone in that. Lots of other people have come to the very same conclusion.”
