Kamala made intel agencies sift through years of docs ensuring similar adjectives were used to describe both genders

Shortly after her inauguration in 2021, Vice President Kamala Harris initiated a campaign for gender sensitivity across intelligence agencies, spurred by her discovery of allegedly biased language in briefings that described female leaders differently than males.

Harris ordered a comprehensive review of past intelligence reports to detect gender biases, according to The New York Times. This review revealed some inconsistencies in language, which prompted the implementation of gender sensitivity training for intelligence analysts to ensure fair representation of female leaders in intelligence reports.

 

However, as the political landscape shifted, Harris strategically redirected her focus to widely appealing issues such as abortion rights, entrepreneurship, homeowner assistance and tax relief, according to NYT.

“She learned that if she wanted to be president of the United States, she would have to walk a very delicate, tight rope when it came to race and gender,” political historian and associate professor at Johns Hopkins University Leah Wright Rigueur told the NYT. “And that is exactly what we have seen from her.”

As the presidential campaign enters its final phase and her appeal to black male voters wanes, Harris has introduced a policy package called “Opportunity Agenda for Black Men,” aimed at aiding them in wealth building, with subsidized loans for new entrepreneurs as a key element. However, days after introducing it, the Harris campaign announced that the economic initiative was open to all Americans.

The Harris campaign did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment.

Fibis I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
