The Fox News Politics newsletter provides the latest political news from Washington D.C. and updates from the 2024 campaign trail. In recent events, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis criticized Vice President Kamala Harris for attempting to involve herself in hurricane response efforts in Florida. DeSantis claimed that Harris has no role in the process and has never offered support during previous storms. He emphasized that he is working with the president and FEMA and does not have time for political games.
Meanwhile, in the White House, there is a briefing battle as Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas refuses to answer questions about an Afghan terror plot. President Biden blamed former President Obama for the war in Ukraine, while Vice President Harris faced criticism for her past policies and speeches. Mayorkas stated that FEMA has enough resources to address hurricanes but will require additional funds. Additionally, there has been a lack of Secret Service funds, leading to delayed payments for Homeland Security teams.
On Capitol Hill, a Democratic lawmaker who previously advocated for defunding the police faced backlash as his past comments resurfaced. Democrats are expressing concern about Vice President Harris’ waning momentum and are urging her campaign to be more aggressive. The GOP is eyeing an upset in a Montana race that could potentially flip the Senate. As Harris struggles to connect with working-class voters, Republicans see an opportunity to gain support from this demographic.
