Vice President Kamala Harris recently shared in an interview with Rolling Stone that she has been using more curse words since taking office in 2021. During the interview, Harris discussed her growing cursing habits, citing instances where she used expletives to express her frustration and determination.
One notable occasion was during a speech at the annual Asian Pacific American Institute for Congressional Studies Legislative Leadership summit, where Harris used the f-word to emphasize the need to challenge the political status quo in America. She received cheers from the audience for her bold statement.
Reflecting on her use of curse words, Harris acknowledged that her work has always been fueled by challenging traditional norms and pushing boundaries. She humorously noted that her pronunciation of curse words is on point, emphasizing that it is not a new language to her.
During a discussion about her approach to challenging the status quo, Harris reiterated the importance of disrupting the existing norms. She emphasized that the status quo is dynamic and that efforts to change it will face resistance.
Another instance where Harris expressed her frustration was during a trip to attend oral arguments in a Supreme Court case regarding state abortion restrictions. Harris voiced her concerns about the potential consequences of the Court's decision on women's reproductive rights and healthcare providers.
Despite the use of curse words, the reporter praised Harris for her ability to think ahead and her sensitivity to the impact of policies on real people. These qualities, including a prosecutor's mindset and a commitment to justice, have long been recognized as Harris' strengths.
