    Pence did not do that for Harris 4 years ago.

    It has been more than two months since Kamala Harris was sworn in as vice president of the United States, a historic moment for the country, as Harris is the first woman and the first woman of color to hold the second highest office in the land. Yet, Harris – along with her husband, Georgetown Law professor Douglas Emhoff – is still, ostensibly, living out of suitcases, unable to move into the private residence reserved for the vice president because it’s still undergoing renovations.

    It’s unclear why the renovations are taking so long, said one administration official, but it’s a situation that has left Harris increasingly and understandably bothered, according to several people who spoke to CNN about her situation. “She is getting frustrated,” said another administration official, noting with each passing day the desire to move in to her designated house – a stately, turreted mansion two-and-a-half miles from the White House – grows more intense.

    The second couple continues to live in temporary housing at Blair House, the President’s official guest quarters, just across Pennsylvania Avenue from the White House.

    The administration has provided no official explanation for the delay, and a spokesperson for Harris did not respond to CNN’s request for comment prior to publication.

    And you're blaming Mr. and Mrs. Pence for that?

    renovations typically occur every change of administration. regardless, while I may not own where I reside,  I will for damn sure have a say in who gains access while I live there.

    Hey buddy. It is nice to know that you actually are reading my posts and stepping outside your safe space.

    What would the Pence's have to do with renovations the Harris' did to the house AFTER the inauguration? Think it through...

    SECOND QUESTION--how upset are you that your google search failed produce any article that suggested Mr. and Mrs. Pence offered a tour of the house to the Harris'--essentially confirming to you that this story today is manufactured right wing bullshit (but of course you cannot admit as such)?

    An actual link:
    https://www.the-independent.com/news/world/americas/us-politics/pence-kamala-harris-naval-observatory-b1790322.html

    An aide to Ms Harris told the broadcaster that a delay in the move will “allow for repairs to the home that are more easily conducted with the home unoccupied”. The repairs are said to include new chimney liners.

    you were correct on a totally unrelated issue? harris was living out of suitcases AFTER being sworn in, because of renos. your article has zero to do with a "tour". 

    it is just fascinating to me how someone can be so wrong, and not only not admit it, claim they were right. Like being a Trump puppet. A Trumppet.

    It’s easy when truth isn’t an important factor in one’s opinion-forming. When it comes from their own side, there’s no need to turn your brain on. When it comes from the other side, though, it’s time to find a counter-argument from their own side… which, again, is not concerned with truth, but only narrative.

    Also, when their primary goal is to get a rise out of their opponents, the more fallacious, the better. Take this thread and nearly every other as an example.

    (Julianna FriemanHeadline USA) Vice President Kamala Harris broke tradition by refusing to invite Vice President-elect J.D. Vance to the Naval Observatory residence for a formal sit-down or tour before Jan. 20.

    Multiple Democrat and Republican sources confirmed Harris’s snub to Vance to CBS News, meaning when Vance, his wife, Usha, and their three children move into the vice president’s residence, it will be their first time there.

    Usha Vance’s team reportedly reached out to Harris and Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff to inquire about how to make their future home safe for their children, Ewan, Vivek and Mirabel, who are all younger than age eight.

    However, a Harris political appointee initially refused to give insight on how to childproof the property, CBS News reported.

    The incoming second family had more luck communicating with Navy officials who watch over the Naval Observatory, according to the outlet. Navy officials gave the Vances an overview of the residence and provided logistical information before Christmas.

    There are no reports that Harris ever extended an olive branch herself to the Vances, but Emhoff reportedly spoke to Usha Vance for 40 minutes in early January.

    Harris sources reportedly told the outlet that arrangements are in process to childproof the residence.

    Harris reportedly claimed she was never offered a chance to visit the Naval Observatory before she moved in, but advisers to then-Vice President Mike Pence denied her allegation.

    They said Harris and Emhoff were invited to the house—even though the COVID-19 pandemic was at its peak.

    Despite this, Pence and Harris never had a sit-down meeting at the Naval Observatory ahead of the first Trump-Biden transition, according to the outlet.

    Harris did not move into the Naval Observatory until April 2021, three months after President Joe Biden took office, because the residence was in need of repairs, CBS News noted.

    This report claims that Harris and Ermoff were invited to the house.
    Whether they declined the offer due to COVID-19, or the upcoming renovation to the home, or some other reason is unknown.

    She's doing the right thing. It's not a good idea to reward bad behavior.
    Vance, as we all do, reap what we sow and maybe he'll learn that, even if it's late in life.

    Boo fucking hoo.  
    This is the epitome of double standards. Act like a jackass, ridicule her, suggest she only got her job based on her gender and race, then get butthurt upon not being treated with respect by that person. Republicans have been showing that norms are effectively meaningless. They should get used to Democrats doing the same - especially when it’s a norm based on an expectation of reciprocated respect and decency.

    Sheck, buddy, your point remains moo.
    Is Julianna Frieman, a freelance writer for a hack right wing outlet like the Daily Caller your only source?
    Have you been furiously googling this since last night? Is this the best you could come up with?
    Why are you so adverse to providing the actual link to your sources? Are you concerned we'd quickly determine the source is bullshit?

    Anyway, it's moo, as this "article" verifies Harris told CBS she was not offered a tour.

    "Harris reportedly claimed she was never offered a chance to visit the Naval Observatory before she moved in"

    Be better.

    Obviously, you are not recognizing the selfishness of Harris' refusal to respond to the Vance's concerns regarding their soon-to-be home.
    The Vances have three very young children - aged 7, 4 and 2 years old and of course have many safety-related concerns.
    For example:
    There is an outdoors swimming pool at the V.P.'s residence - is there a fence and gate around the pool?
    The house is two-story - is there a child-proof gate at the top of the stairs?

    I'm sure the Vances have other safety concerns as well, and they needed time to identify and address these concerns so that alterations to the living quarters could've been requested and completed before their move-n date.

    This was not just about "carrying on a tradition".
