The people who put this dumb bitch in office need to be executed -
painfully.

It�s a case of d�j� �Veep.�

Vice President Kamala Harris kept up her run of ponderous, head-scratching statements Monday on the first stop of a week-long trip to Africa, where
the US is trying to head off China and Russia�s growing influence in the
Third World.

�There are a number of things on the issue of the economy as a whole that
we must do � and a lot of that work is the work that I am here to do on
the continent,� Harris, 58, solemnly intoned during a news conference with Ghanaian President Nana Akufo-Addo.

�As you have mentioned, we have had today, this afternoon, a wide-ranging discussion,� she also said. �We have discussed a number of important
topics, including the importance of concepts and priorities such as
freedom and liberty.�

President Biden�s No. 2 also gave the White House undue credit for its
economic policies, saying the US was �recovering� from decades-high
inflation because of �the measures that our administration has taken to
bring down the costs.�

Harris did not mention that while annual inflation has come down from the dizzying heights of 9.1% in June, it remains stubbornly at 6% � compared
to 1.4% when Biden took office in January 2021.

The vice president used her visit to announce $100 million in US aid to
the region, some of which will have to be approved by Congress as
lawmakers attempt to negotiate an increase to Washington�s debt limit.

�What an honor it is to be here in Ghana and on the continent of Africa,� Harris said upon arrival in Accra. �I�m very excited about the future of Africa.�

�The median age on the continent of Africa is 19. Think about what that
means in terms of potential,� Harris added. �Think about the fact that by
2050, one in four people occupying a place on Mother Earth will be on this continent, and what that means.�

Harris� regular attempts to make grandiose statements have drawn mockery
from her critics, with one comparing her to a student giving a book report
on a book she has not read.

Last week, the VP marked Women�s History Month by repeating the word
�history� three times in a matter of seconds at a White House event.

In addition to Ghana, Harris will also visit Tanzania and Zambia � three nations also courted by Beijing as part of its Belt and Road Initiative.

Ghana has made some infrastructure deals with Chinese companies, but
Akufo-Addo maintained his country�s ties with Beijing pose no threat to
the US.

�The relationships with America is a relationship that has been close over several decades,� said the Ghanaian president, who did voice concerns over
the growth of Islamist terror groups in West Africa, as well as the encroachment of Russia�s Wagner Group mercenary force.

�It raises the very real possibility that once again our continent is
going to become the playground for a great power conflict,� he said.
