Kamala Harris humiliated herself in a defense of Joe Biden that makes no sense
Harris needs to get out of the public eye. She’s only hurting herself at this point.
And now Kamala Harris humiliated herself in a defense of Joe Biden that makes no sense.
Harris Dodges Accountability on Epstein Files Cover-Up
Former Vice President Kamala Harris appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live! Wednesday to shield the Biden administration’s controversial refusal to release Jeffrey Epstein’s files, claiming it was all about respecting DOJ “independence”—even as the current administration prepares to comply with transparency demands.
Harris downplayed the issue, insisting the Biden team deliberately stayed hands-off despite public outcry.
“To give you an answer that will not satisfy your curiosity, I will tell you we, perhaps to our damage, but we strongly and rightly believed that there should be an absolute separation between what we wanted as an administration and what the Department of Justice did,” Harris said.
“We absolutely adhered to that and it was right to do that. The Justice Department would make its decisions independent of any political or personal vendetta or concern that we may have and that’s the way it worked.”
Critics see this as a convenient excuse for blocking explosive information during their tenure, especially now that the DOJ must release all unclassified Epstein files by Friday under the Epstein Files Transparency Act—signed by President Donald Trump on November 19.
Biden-Era Stonewalling Ends Under Trump Transparency Push
The files exploded into the spotlight in July when the DOJ and FBI abruptly declared no “client list” existed and confirmed Epstein’s s-icide, shutting down speculation after Attorney General Pam Bondi had teased possessing such a list.
Trump initially dismissed release demands as a Democratic hoax but pivoted, affirming Republicans have “nothing to hide” and pushing for full disclosure.
Notably, Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell informed Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche she never saw Trump involved in any misconduct during his acquaintance with Epstein.
Epstein victims also told NBC News in September they had no knowledge or evidence of wrongdoing by Trump.
Harris’s Defense Highlights Partisan Double Standard
Harris’s remarks underscore a stark contrast: the Biden-Harris administration’s reluctance to expose potential elite connections versus the Trump administration’s commitment to letting the facts emerge—no matter who they implicate.
Her appeal to DOJ independence rings hollow to many, given past accusations of politicization under Democratic leadership, while Trump’s law forces the transparency voters demanded.
