South Dakota Republican Gov. Kristi Noem questions whether Vice President Kamala Harris, whom President Biden put in charge of managing U.S.-Mexico border policy, even knows she's in charge because she's "seen no activity from her."
Noem, a potential 2024 GOP presidential candidate, was asked for her assessment of Harris' job performance as the border czar.
"I don't even know if she's aware she's in charge, because I've seen no activity for her," Noem told Just the News during a roundtable with journalists ahead of her keynote address at the Young America's Foundation student conference on Thursday. "It's unfortunate."
Republicans on Capitol Hill often say that every state is a border state, given that the Biden administration is allowing the release of millions of illegal immigrants into the U.S. after they arrive at the border to make an asylum claim. Noem elaborated on the challenges her state is facing with illegal immigration.
