It’s Usha’s duty to ensure the house is secure for his or her youngsters — and he or she’s being denied the correct to make sure that.
Though Harris whined that she didn’t get the identical alternative, with out acknowleding she didn’t have a yound household going by means of main upheaval, her petulant transfer reveals a lot about her character.
However folks near Harris say she was by no means afforded a possibility to go to the house earlier than she was sworn in in 2021.

The invitation got here discreetly as a result of Trump resisted accommodating the incoming administration.
