Is anyone surprised?
According to a Fox News report, Vice President and “border czar” Kamala Harris was in Arizona on Thursday to attend a groundbreaking ceremony for an energy infrastructure project —and to explain why she wasn’t visiting the border.
The vice president was in Tonopah, Arizona —just 100 miles from the border.
“I am here to talk about what we are doing around bringing down the cost to American families and creating jobs,” Harris told local news station KPHO. “Let me say on the border that it is one of our highest priorities to continue to work on making sure that the border is secure and that we also do what is necessary to have a fair and humane system.
The Veep also tried to throw Congress under the electric bus.
“Frankly, Congress needs to act,” Harris continued. “We’ve put an historic number of agents on the border. We have upgraded and are in the process of upgrading technology. But Congress needs to act.”

“I visited the border. I will not on this trip, but I have, and I will again,” Harris told KPHO.
