SHORT TAKES ON THE DRIFTING WRECKAGE – OVERNIGHT:

THE INTELLECTUALISM OF KAMALA HARRIS – FROM FOX:   Vice President Kamala Harris is getting roasted on social media after appearing in a NASA video for kids while the Biden administration’s approval ratings continue on a downward slide.  Harris, who serves as chair of the National Space Council, talked to kids about her fixation with the "craters on the moon" during a NASA video on YouTube honoring World Space Week.  In the video, the vice president hosted the kids and gave them life advice at her official residence in Washington, D.C., where the U.S. Naval Observatory is located.  "You know, one of the most important pieces of advice that I can offer you guys, and I want you to really remember this: Never let anybody tell you who you are, you tell them who you are," Harris said in the video. "Never let anybody suggest to you that you are what they think you should be, you tell them who you are and who you know you are, and what you intend to be. Got that?"  Harris also talked about her own passion for science and "exploring the unknown," as well as what the kids could expect during their trip to the observatory.  "You’re gonna literally see the craters on the moon with your own eyes!" Harris exclaimed. "With your own eyes! I’m telling you, it is gonna be unbelievable."  Someone tell the vice president that we were seeing craters on the Moon decades ago, and some of her fellow Americans actually walked in some.  Yikes!  Unbelievable!
