Kamala Hahaharris refused to allow JD Vance's kids tour the VP house before inauguration

Hey hey, ho ho, 

Kamala Harris, the self-anointed "Momala" of the political universe, has decided that basic courtesy is just too much work for her lofty station. According to Vice President JD Vance, Harris gave a big ol' middle finger to a simple request from the Vance family to let their young kids, ages 7, 5, and a freshly minted 3-year-old Mirabel, take a peek at the vice president's residence before the inauguration. You know, the place they'd be calling home for the next four years. Classy move, Kamala.

Vance spilled the tea on the inaugural episode of the Katie Miller Podcast, aired Monday, and it's a doozy. Apparently, it’s customary, call it tradition, something Harris clearly holds in low regard, for the outgoing veep to give the incoming family a tour of the digs. But Harris, during her passage of time, wasn't feeling the hospitality vibes. "I think that, normally, it's customary for the outgoing vice president to show the incoming vice president’s family the house," Vance said, probably while shaking his head at the sheer pettiness. "We have three little kids, so I guess at the time our kids were, like, 7, 5, and, you know, 2 – I guess Mirabel turned 3 right before the inauguration."

Vance's wife, Usha, just wanted to give their kids a heads-up about their new home; nothing crazy, just a quick walkthrough to ease the transition for the little ones. But Harris wasn't having it. "Usha really wanted to show [the children where they would be living], so what we actually proposed is, recognizing the weirdness of the politics, can Usha take the kids over and just show them where they’re going to be living for the next 4 years, and they were rebuffed," Vance said. Rebuffed. That's political-speak for "go pound sand."

So, instead of a tour, the Vance kids got a picture book about the vice president's residence, courtesy of a friend in Cincinnati. "A friend of ours in Cincinnati had a book about the vice president’s residence, and so we would show the kids what it would look like, but that’s as close as they ever got to it" before the inauguration, Vance noted. 

And it wasn't just the kids who got the cold shoulder. Harris also snubbed Vance himself, skipping the traditional invite for the incoming VP to check out the residence. Apparently, Harris was too busy polishing her "Momala" halo to bother with basic decency. This is the same woman who's been milking the "Momala" sobriquet for all it's worth, ever since she and her hairy armpit stepdaughter, Ella, cooked it up one night, as Harris gushed in a 2019 Mother's Day piece for Elle. She's leaned hard into the warm-and-fuzzy stepmom narrative to prop up her political image, but when it comes to actual kindness? Eh, not so much.

So, there you have it: Kamala Harris, champion of family values, couldn't be bothered to let a few kids see their future home or extend a hand to her successor. But don’t worry, she’s still got her "Momala" branding to fall back on when the cameras are rolling.
