Harris’s Photo of Her Talking Helene Relief With FEMA Fails on Many Levels
All politician stage their photos but this one takes the cake.
VP Kamala Harris posted a picture of her supposedly talking or just getting off the phone with FEMA Director Deanne Criswell.
Well, um, as usual, the photo is staged like every other photo posted by any politician.
This one takes the cake, though. Can you find the many problems with it?
I was just briefed by @FEMA_Deanne Criswell on the latest developments about the ongoing impacts of Hurricane Helene. We also discussed our Administration's continued actions to support emergency response and recovery.

Here’s the first part of the tweet:
I was just briefed by @FEMA_Deanne Criswell on the latest developments about the ongoing impacts of Hurricane Helene. We also discussed our Administration’s continued actions to support emergency response and recovery.
I also spoke with @NC_Governor Cooper about the ongoing rescue and recovery efforts in North Carolina.
OK, so if Harris just ended the call with Criswell, it makes sense that she unplugged her headphones.
But if she just ended TWO phone calls…why are the papers blank?
If the papers are blank, then I would assume she is currently on the phone…but then the headphones would have to be plugged in.
Could she be any more fake?? Like seriously. This is pathetic.
I normally wouldn’t write about these pictures because, as I said, they’re always staged. But this one is just bad.

Kamala, knowing this session would be photographed, was faced with a dilemma. Displaying the contents of any paperwork would be a serious security violation, so she wrote using invisible ink. Also the phone calls were conducted in an ancient Aramaic language and sped up at 100x speed before transmission, and then slowed down again upon receiving after the passage of time.
Bubble caption, “I’m writing a note to myself pretending that I’m taking notes from a very important person who has given me this phone call because I’m pretending to also be a very important person. But what I’m really writing is a list of groceries that my soyboy husband needs to get for a meal that I will be pretending to cook sometime later in the week.”

*historic!
I read about this. You write in white ink so humans cannot see it but the AI bots can search it. Maybe Harris is polishing up her resume.
“so she wrote using invisible ink”
AHA!! There’s our Pottsylvania connection!
Writing on papers often doesn’t show up at that angle. And one of the reasons that sort of angle is often used – so nothing
incriminatingclassified or sensitive would show up. Also why sometimes they just put blank papers on the desk for the photo. That part doesn’t bother me.What bothers me is she isn’t using the communication suite on the frickin’ airplane? That the taxpayers put a LOT of money into? That’s secure and stuff?
Also, there’s no one else in that meeting with important people? No other advisors/aides who could implement actions needed with the information passed? It’s really just Kamala competently handling everything on her lonesome? ‘Cause she’s a stronk, competent woman.
The pic is a standard publicity pic. But it’s wholly unsuited to the concept they’re trying to portray.
What could possibly be classified in a disaster briefing with Cooper and FEMA? Why would she need to unplug the earpiece to a phone just to write on a piece of paper? Is she making her list for Santa?
Cooper: ” It’s pretty bad. Entire communities are wiped out, roads are closed, I40 will be shut down for weeks, upwards of 100 dead, food and water running out, power and cell towers out”
Harris: “Try to be unburdened by what has been”
When taking photos of Kamala being Busy and Important™, its critical to first put away the bottles and and the papers with wine stains and set out fresh blank paper. After positioning her in front of the seal that says who she is, they then must hand her a set of earphones left over from the movie screening, which clearly indicates Busy and Important™ phone calls.
I’m a bit astonished that they didn’t use a red prop Hotline phone, though.
The Batphone?
Are the headphones even connected to the phone? Doesn’t look like it to this iPhone user.
And why is the VP using an iPhone in the first place? I wonder how many foreign governments have been snooping through that phone…
I was actually wondering about that myself. While I am sure that the Vice President’s plane certainly -could- have cell phone service as that’s no big deal, what kind of security service would allow it, even if the call is scrambled?
And, while I am sure that she gets the latest and greatest technology, somehow I imagine the phones on that plane being rather old-fashioned and hard-wired into the plane’s communication computers
There are secure smartphones for government.
But, as I said above, why would she need to use one when she’s on Air Force 2? They have all sorts of phones and communication setups on that plane.
I also will say that I doubt any of the people she’s supposedly calling (except the FEMA guy – I know different for that one) have secure communications facilities they’re using.
If you raised the window panels you would probably see that the plane is still in the hangar.
iPhones haven’t had headphone jacks since forever. Remember how upset we all were when apple decided that our plug in headphones were now obsolete?
She also has her hand positioned like she is holding an regular phone handset. What’s up with that?
She’s leaning her head on the knuckles of that hand. Probably because “Math is hard. Harder than an 8th grade book report where I didn’t read the book.”
She’s concentrating on listening to her earrings.
True they don’t have headphone jacks but you can plug the headphones into the Lightning connector.
Have a pair for backup in case the bluetooth ones die or go mysteriously missing as they sometimes do. (last time found them in the dryer LOL)
At least it’s just photo and not a video of both sides of a weird little skit of a phone call like contacting Timmy the Gimp to be her VP nominee or that actress about racism or whatever.
I am surprised she didnt have a crayon in her hand.
Didn’t want her to hurt herself- it’s not good for you to eat them, you know.
Hey now! It’s never hurt any of the Marines I know!
Didn’t want her to confuse them with the wax bottles full of juice.
I like the way they angled the shot so that the word “Vice” was mostly blocked by her head, leaving just POTUS behind her.
I am tired of all the disinformation. I am waiting for JR to tell us the truth straight from the horses mouth..
You’ll have to turn him around first.
If you’re waiting for JR, it will actually come straight from a horse’s ass.
The first reply to that tweet had me in stitches 😂😂 (the one asking if she’s going to give locals the same support she’s given the Ukraine).
Komrade Kamala’s real nemesis seems to be those earphones. This is the second time they have screwed up one of her brat-cool photo-ops and made her look like a disingenuous moron.
I would fire those earphones if I were her …
Harris should be outed only in instances where she is 100% acted crazy.
This incident does not qualify.
I for one, often prefer using a cell phone speaker phone, even when headset is available.
But do you keep an earbud in while you do that?
Proposed caption: Photo of VP Harris as she doodles on scrap paper while literally riding high above the mundane problems of everyday Citizens in a failed effort to portray her importance and demonstrate competence.
Nothing communicates professionalism and competence like a transparently staged, totally inauthentic photo.
The photo is too small and blurry to even attempt to analyze without specialized equipment. The blur level can be inferred by the sign on the window next to her.
Are the papers really blank? There’s clearly something on the big sheet in the foreground and on the napkin (or maybe that’s coffee), but the only way you can tell is by larger expanses of color. There may be ballpoint writing on the sheet, or the photo could have been sanitized for security reasons by the regime’s official Commissar-Vanisher.
The headphones could in fact be plugged into the aircraft’s secure communication network, and her phone is in front of her simply to help her spell difficult words like “hurricane,” or calculate her 10% to add to the disaster funds she’s flinging out.
What I find most telling about this photo is that Air Force 2 stocks disposable styrofoam coffee cups pre-printed with the vice-presidential seal, each one no doubt costing way more than the coffee inside them.
She can’t even figure out a coloring book, and you’re asking her to write notes?
They had another photo of Komrade Kamala talking into a conch shell but someone deleted the file by mistake and they had to come up with a quick replacement.
The “Harlot-in-Chief,” the “Harridan-in-Chief,” or, the “Clown-in-Chief;” take your pick.
Why is the VP doing any of this? It’s not her job so where is Biden?
“Commanding” from the beach head in war torn Rehoboth Beach.
“But if she just ended TWO phone calls…why are the papers blank?”
Easy. Because her brain is blank.
I’m generally not willing to give Harris the benefit of the doubt on anything, but I zoomed in as much as I could on that pic. Half the page seems to have print on it. Maybe. The bottom does seem to have something written on it in blue ink. And the headphones could be connected, just running off the bottom of the phone to the right.
So while it’s obviously a staged photo and no sign that Harris is actually doing any real work, it’s not a ‘gotcha’ in my opinion. She could be doodling on the page out of boredom while the governor and FEMA describe the devastation.
