VP's husband's motorcade commandeers handicap spots at Whole Foods

It must have been a food emergency because we all know that high-ranking politicians and their spouses always put the needs of the public ahead of their own. In this case, our eloquent Vice President's husband, Doug Emhoff, along with his armed motorcade of Secret Service gas-guzzling vehicles, positioned those vehicles across several handicapped parking spaces while Doug shopped for food.

The hogging of the handicap parking spaces caused those with handicaps to have to park farther away from the Whole Foods and experience not only that inconvenience, but the concomitant pain they felt in their broken bodies as they made their way for the sustenance they so badly need.

Veteran shopping at Whole Foods had to park at far end of parking lot

The unmitigated thoughtlessness occurred at the tony supermarket in Brentwood, California where Emhoff diddybopped along the aisles of the store for a good 20 minutes before emerging with two paper [not plastic] bags of groceries.

The photo at the top of this post clearly shows the two aforementioned vehicles positioned diagonally over the parking spots designated for handicapped people and simply being married to a woman with a verbal handicap does not count as eligible to park in that space as they did on Wednesday of last week.

Pursuant to California Vehicle Code, “it is unlawful for any person to park or leave standing any vehicle in a stall or space designated for disabled persons and disabled veterans” unless they are displaying a special identification license plate or placard.

Of course, both Secret Service vehicles did not have the necessary handicap identification and had no justification to park in those spots.

A US Secret Service spokesman would not provide any details when asked for comment by The Post saying, “Due to the need to maintain operational security, the U.S. Secret Service does not comment on the means or methods used to conduct our protective operations.”

Uh huh. I'm sure they parked in the handicap spaces for security reasons. And if, for example, a few amputee veterans needed to park close to the store, well they would be happy to make yet another sacrifice for the nation.

And while VP Harris has paid lip service to the handicap population, it's just words and they speak softer than actions, because talk is cheap.
