Then-top Biden aide Susan Rice would privately slam fellow Cabinet member Xavier Becerra as a “b—h a–’’ and “idiot’’ over the migrant crisis — yet another sign of a White House in turmoil, a report said Monday.
Rice insulted the Health and Human Services secretary and clashed with Vice President Kamala Harris, Homeland Security adviser Liz Sherwood-Randall and other officials while coordinating the administration’s border response as President Biden’s domestic policy adviser from January 2021 to May 2023, Axios reported.
Sources told the outlet that Rice’s ire for Becerra stemmed from his failure to secure additional sheltering spaces for child migrants — and that at one point she cautioned Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas not to “save” the HHS secretary from Biden’s wrath during a meeting.
Rice further disparaged Harris for not taking charge of immigration policy as Biden’s border czar. In private conversations, she also questioned whether Harris had tanked Rice’s chances of being the president’s running mate in 2020 by distributing opposition research that resulted in unflattering coverage.
Additionally, some of Harris’ aides mocked Rice...

Pass the popcorn.
“as a “b—h a–’’ and “idiot’
hmmm .... I thought those where terms of endearment on the street.
Nothing says it’s Obama’s White House like those two little words....Susan Rice.
A particularly wicked POS, and ugly to boot
The wrath of laser-eyed Dark Brandon is truly something to fear.
Rice further disparaged Harris for not taking charge of immigration policy as Biden’s border czar.
Doubtful. Nobody in the White House really expected Harris to "take charge of immigration policy." Somebody else was always running things. They just handed Harris the portfolio to make her look bad.
In private conversations, she also questioned whether Harris had tanked Rice’s chances of being the president’s running mate in 2020 by distributing opposition research that resulted in unflattering coverage.
Without getting elected to something first, Susan Rice wasn't going to be Biden's VP pick. If she really had worse skeletons in her closet than Kamala Harris, then she didn't deserve to be anybody's VP pick.
Additionally, some of Harris’ aides mocked Rice...
Sure, sure, but a week later they were probably in the unemployment line, and Harris had other aides who could mock Rice for another week or two before they got fired as well.
Apparently, this is old news, but it helps to explain why Susan Rice suddenly dropped out of sight.
Susan Rice has to be one of the most vile Anti-American bitch asses to ever live. She is as bad as biden, obozo, pelosi, schumer, and the rest of the Satanic Cabal of pure evil. There really isn’t any good to be said about any of them.
Let the record show this cabal is responsible for the fast decline of America during these dark years.
There are going to be some hilarious tell-all books after the Biden regime is finally done.
Yes and there is a place for such.. it isn’t all sunshine and roses when they live to destroy so many .. she is in a dark place... spreading it around.
It’s about time that curtain is open.. she has created a he*ll for this nation... and children? a place for them? are you kidding? those children are being sold and more... she cares? not hardly!!!
The IQ of a toad stool.
CBS News Source: Susan Rice Asked For ‘Unmasking’ Of Trump Advisers
April 4, 2017 / 5:36 PM EDT / CBS New York
WASHINGTON (CBSNewYork/AP) — A top Obama national security adviser said it’s “absolutely false’’ that the previous administration used intelligence about President Donald Trump’s associates for political purposes.
A source close to former Obama National Security Adviser Susan Rice confirmed to CBS News that Rice had asked for names of the Trump team to be unmasked to her after seeing them referenced in intelligence briefs. Identities of U.S. civilians caught in U.S. intelligence are usually concealed or masked, CBS2’s Dick Brennan reported.
“There’s a troubling direction that some of this is going in,” White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer said, adding the focus should be on Obama administration leaks. “The deputy assistant secretary for defense of Russian Affairs said very publicly that this was part of an attempt of the Obama administration to spread classified information.”
As national security adviser it was within Rice’s authority to request unmasking of names, although the source says Rice did not ask that the names be distributed through the intelligence community as members of the Trump White House continue to allege. Rice said it was sometimes necessary for her to request the identity of Americans whose communications were swept up in intelligence reports. She says the requests would only be made for national security purposes.
Rice, in an interview on MSNBC, would not say whether she had viewed intelligence involving Trump and his aides. She said that information is classified. She said that as National Security Adviser she would sometimes ask for identities of U.S. civilians caught up in foreign surveillance, but it had nothing to do with politics.
“There is no equivalence between the so-called unmasking and leaking. The effort to ask for the identity of an American citizen is necessary to understand an intelligence report in some instances,” she said. Rice also denied that she leaked information to the press, saying “I leaked nothing to nobody.’’
In the meantime, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Kentucky) says he will move to end an expected filibuster by Democrats of the nomination to the Supreme Court of Neil Gorsuch. McConnell has said he will seek a vote on the so-called “nuclear option” to change Senate rules and confirm Gorsuch with a simple majority.
“It should be unsettling to everyone that our colleagues across the aisle have brought the Senate to this new low, and on such an impressive nominee with such broad bipartisan support,” McConnell said. Democrats said they won’t take the blame if Republicans do with the nuclear option.
“Every time int he history of this country that a Supreme Court nominee has failed to earn the necessary votes to pass the Senate, the answer has been to change the nominee, not the rules,” Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) said.
On Tuesday, President Trump was out on the stump talking to a trade group, and repeating a campaign slogan. “I don’t want to be president of the world. I am President of the United States, and from now on it’s going to be America first,” he said. It appears if things unfold as expected a final Senate vote on Gorsuch would come on Friday.

Does this mean Susan Rice is in the running to replace Biden at the Democrat convention?
After the Seth Rich murder Democrats have been terrified to leak anything—but time has passed and some may have forgotten....
What a circus of low-life grifters we have running the place.
I smell kabuki.
pedojoe and his entire cabinet could be standing in a funhouse of mirrors when hurling those invectives.
As if she needed help with looking bad...
Imagine that. Democrats becoming rudely disenchanted with the consequences of Democrat policies. Shocking!
