This is embarrassing.
Kamala Harris on Monday spoke to reporters on the tarmac during her visit to Milwaukee.
Harris walked over to the reporters to answer their questions on Ukraine and she admitted she has no idea what Vladimir Putin is going to do after Biden gave him the greenlight to invade Ukraine.
“We have been clear and consistent for quite some time that we respect the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Ukraine and we expect that Russia would to do the same. Any aggressive action taken by Vladimir Putin will be met with severe consequences,” Harris said, assuring the media that she has been briefed on the situation by her national security team.
‘I don’t know what Putin’s gonna do,’ she added.

TGP’s Kristinn Taylor pointed out that Harris was reportedly “frozen out” of Biden’s Saturday meeting on Ukraine with his national security team.
Kamala Harris was in California all weekend and Joe Biden was at Camp David.
Amateur hour.
Kamala Harris says she's being briefed on Ukraine by her national security team. Apparently she was frozen out of Biden's Saturday meeting on Ukraine with his national security team. Harris was in Cali for the weekend, Biden at Camp David. Nice salute, though.
