The knives are out in Democrat world—and this time, they’re aimed at one of their own. According to longtime political journalist Mark Halperin, Joe Biden’s inner circle is threatening to unload a pile of embarrassing stories about Kamala Harris’s time as vice president if she criticizes his cognitive decline in her upcoming book.
Harris, who’s been attempting a political reboot since the disastrous 2024 election, is set to publish a tell-all that some insiders suspect may take subtle jabs at Biden’s mental state. But the Biden camp is making it clear: if she swings, they’ll swing harder.
Halperin dropped the bombshell on “The Morning Meeting,” saying Biden’s people “tried to help her be prepared to be vice president and be in a position to run” but ultimately determined, “She’s not up to this.” He warned that if Harris goes after Biden, they’ll go public with stories that will make her look “Palinesque”—a reference to the media’s portrayal of Sarah Palin as unqualified.
That’s not just political posturing. It’s a direct threat—and it shows how deep the dysfunction really ran during the Biden-Harris years.
Despite publicly endorsing Harris and calling her the “best decision” of his presidency, Biden reportedly had doubts about her from the very beginning. According to reporting from earlier this year, he privately described her as a “work in progress” shortly after taking office in 2021. The “progress,” apparently, never materialized.
CNN even reported back then that Biden’s aides were frustrated by her inability to answer basic policy questions, her awkward media appearances, and her infamous laughing fits during serious interviews—especially on topics like the border crisis.
Now, with Biden back in private life and Harris trying to salvage her brand, the gloves are coming off.
Halperin said the Biden team “gave her every opportunity,” but found “in some instances that she had some issues.” If she tries to distance herself from Biden or pin the party’s failures on him, they’re prepared to hit back—with receipts.
The timing couldn’t be worse for Democrats, who are still licking their wounds after a bruising 2024 loss and watching their bench crumble under infighting, scandals, and falling poll numbers. The idea that Biden’s own allies are ready to publicly shred his former VP only adds fuel to the fire.
This isn’t just a feud—it’s a window into how cynical and desperate the Democrat establishment has become. They knew Harris wasn’t up to the job, but they propped her up anyway. They pushed her onto the ticket. They defended her in the press. Now that it’s all come crashing down, they’re ready to scapegoat her to protect their own reputations.
It’s every man for himself in the Democrat political wilderness. And Kamala Harris, once hailed as the future of the party, is now standing alone—surrounded by “allies” with stories they’ve been sitting on for years, ready to drop at the first sign of betrayal.
This is what happens when your political movement is built on identity politics and media illusions. Eventually, the truth breaks through—and when it does, it’s every Democrat for themselves.
