A photo of former Vice President Kamala Harris that was apparently taken by her husband, former second husband Doug Emhoff, has gone viral online after receiving a wave of criticism.
The photo shows Harris staring back at the camera smiling while pouring some snack chips into a bowl with the post, “Oscars watch party prep” — likely a reference to Sunday’s Academy Awards show.

The post drew mocking and ire from hundreds of X users.
Meanwhile, former Democrat Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel slammed his own party for focusing on issues during the last election cycle that do not impact the everyday lives of average Americans during an appearance on HBO host Bill Maher’s program on Friday.
“I don’t want to hear another word about the locker room, I don’t want to hear another word about the bathroom. You better start focusing on the classroom,” he said during an appearance alongside liberal CNN host and author Fareed Zakaria.
“I read that the current mayor of Chicago has an approval rating of 6.6 percent…. What’s going on in Chicago?” Maher responded.
“Round it up. 7,” the former mayor quipped. “Safe streets, strong schools, stable finances. Focus on those three things and your city’s going to be fine.”
“You also have the mayor of New York not doing well… Obviously, other things here in Los Angeles are not doing well, the mayor here. And then you’ve got mayors, like the mayor of San Francisco and other cities that are doing well,” he said before pivoting back to Chicago.
“We’ve gone through five years where people became way too permissive as a culture – which is why everything is locked up at CVS and Walgreens, and that’s a disaster,” Emanual continued.
“We have the worst reading scores for eighth graders in 30 years, and nobody – not a governor, not a mayor, not a president, not a secretary of education is talking about it. We’re all wrapped up,” Emanual added before scorching the woke policies that have appeared to take over his Party.
“Look, in seventh grade, if I had known that I could have said the word ‘They’ and got in the girls’ bathroom, I would have done it,” Emanuel joked.
“We literally are a superpower, we’re facing off against China with 1.4 billion people and two-thirds of our children can’t read eighth grade level,” he said.
Zakaria chimed in, saying that he believed the woke policies and language were a significant issue for the Democrat Party in the last election cycle.
“This is a huge Democratic Party problem. If you look at Democratic cities, they are terribly run. They have incredibly high taxes, so it’s impossible to build,” he said.
