Kamala Harris’ Profane L.A. Remark Puts Book Tour in Political Crossfire

The viral Los Angeles moment drew a mocking response from the White House.

Overview

  • At the Day of Unreasonable Conversation summit at the Getty Center, Harris said of the Trump administration, “these mothaf—kas are crazy,” drawing laughs and applause.
  • White House spokesperson Kush Desai mocked her remark and laugh in a statement, escalating the back‑and‑forth over her comments.
  • A day earlier in San Francisco, Harris criticized scapegoating in politics and invoked “basic f***ing curiosity” about others’ well‑being.
  • Harris is promoting her memoir, 107 Days, whose pre‑publication excerpts included a line that “at 81, Joe got tired,” prompting frustration from some Democrats such as strategist Garry South.
  • Her tour continues this week with scheduled stops in Atlanta on Wednesday and Washington, D.C., on Thursday.
