Kamala Harris, a Very Turbulent Year in America, and the Challenge of Being First
Good morning from the Hive newsroom! As we head into the New Year, Molly Jong-Fast sits down with Vice President Kamala Harris for an up-close-and-personal interview on the unique responsibilities of being the first female veep. “In this year of our Lord 2022, it is a shame that we are still making firsts,” Harris tells Vanity Fair. “That’s why it is very important to me to make sure that I create a path and widen the path for others.”
Over in Trumpland, Eric Lutz has the latest on Donald Trump’s recently obtained tax returns, which have put the IRS in a particularly bad light. Plus, Emily Jane Fox and Joe Hagan discuss whether the Justice Department will prosecute the former president over the Capitol riot, while Caleb Ecarma writes that a pro-Trump lawyer reportedly pressured former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson to lie to the January 6 select committee.
Zooming out, Abigail Tracy grabs news of Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s first trip to the US since the Russian invasion, which he addressed in Wednesday remarks to Congress. Thanks for reading!
