The Biden/Harris administration was a disaster. But more is coming out about how bad it really was.
And Kamala Harris has spilled the details about a secret conversation between her and Biden.
In her explosive new memoir, 107 Days, former Vice President Kamala Harris pulls back the curtain on the chaotic inner workings of the Biden White House, revealing how Joe Biden threw her off her game right before her big showdown with Donald Trump.
It’s a raw look at the self-centered drama that plagued the Democrats’ 2024 campaign, and it’s got everyone talking about just how fractured that party really is.
Harris describes a tense moment in her hotel room, prepping for the debate that could make or break her short-lived run for the top job. Biden rings her up, supposedly to pump her up with some good luck vibes. But instead, he hits her with a lecture straight out of left field.
According to the book excerpt obtained by the Guardian, Biden drops this line: “My brother called. He’s been talking to a group of real power brokers in Philly.” He quizzes her on whether she knows these shadowy figures, but she’s drawing a blank.
Then comes the kicker. Harris writes: “His brother had told him that those guys were not going to support me because I’d been saying bad things about him. He wasn’t inclined to believe it, he claimed, but he thought I should know in case my team had been encouraging me to put daylight between the two of us.”
Biden doesn’t stop there. He rambles on about his own debate history, turning the call into a one-man show. Harris admits she was left fuming—confused, angry, and downright let down by her boss’s timing.
She blasts him for hijacking her focus at such a pivotal time, making the whole thing revolve around his own insecurities. As Harris puts it, Biden was “distracting me with worry about hostile power-brokers in the biggest city of the most important state.”
Her husband, Doug Emhoff, steps in like a voice of reason, spotting her distress and telling her to shake it off before stepping onto that stage against Trump. It’s a small glimpse into the personal toll of dealing with Biden’s baggage.
Throughout her campaign, Harris played nice, never publicly slamming Biden even as she stepped in to replace him. But now, with the election dust settled, she’s unleashing these truths in her book, set to drop on September 23. It’s already stirring up major buzz about the Democrats’ 2024 meltdown.
Diving deeper, Harris takes aim at the blind loyalty that kept Biden in the race far too long. The constant chant of “It’s Joe and Jill’s decision” echoed through Democratic circles, but she calls it out for what it was.
In her words, from an excerpt in The Atlantic: “‘It’s Joe and Jill’s decision.’ We all said that, like a mantra, as if we’d all been hypnotized. Was it grace, or was it recklessness? In retrospect, I think it was recklessness. The stakes were simply too high. This wasn’t a choice that should have been left to an individual’s ego, an individual’s ambition. It should have been more than a personal decision.”
Harris nails it: Biden’s stubborn grip on power wasn’t noble; it was a reckless gamble that put the entire nation at risk. America’s working folks deserved better than letting one man’s pride dictate the future.
And here’s another shocker from the book—Harris wanted Pete Buttigieg as her running mate, not that Minnesota radical Tim Walz. Buttigieg was her top pick, the former Transportation Secretary who loves to talk a big game.
But she backed off, deeming it “too big of a risk” to pair him with her ticket. Why? Because, as Harris explains, the campaign was “already asking a lot of America: to accept a woman, a Black woman, a Black woman married to a Jewish man.”
This revelation exposes the Democrats’ obsession with identity politics over real substance. Instead of picking the best fighter for the job, they played it safe with checkboxes, fearing everyday Americans wouldn’t buy into their progressive experiment.
In the end, Harris’s book paints a picture of a Democratic machine riddled with ego clashes, backroom deals, and a fear of rocking the boat too hard.
