When JD Vance, his wife Usha and their three young children move into the Naval Observatory residence on Jan. 20, it will be their first time inside the white Queen Anne-style mansion that has been home to vice presidents since the 1970s.
Vice President Kamala Harris has not extended an invitation for a formal sit-down or tour, multiple Democratic and Republican sources told CBS News.
In November, Usha Vance, via intermediaries, reached out to staff for the home's current occupants, Harris and Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff, seeking details including what they would need to childproof it. Ewan, Vivek and Mirabel Vance are all under the age of eight.
The questions were initially rebuffed by a Harris political appointee. But there has since been communication between the Vance team and Navy aides who oversee the residence.
Before Christmas, Navy officials provided an overview of the house to discuss the layout of the residence, logistics and practicalities of the move-in, and to help answer any questions the Vances had, a person familiar with the call said.
Usha Vance spoke with Emhoff for about 40 minutes last week, sources said. Harris sources said that arrangements are underway to accommodate the Vance children.
Spokespeople for Vance and Harris declined to comment.
But people close to Harris say she was never afforded an opportunity to visit the home before she was sworn in in 2021. However, she took office during the COVID outbreak, just after the Capitol riot — and Donald Trump had refused to admit he had been def…

Before you have kids, you really don't think of all the kid related stuff. Kamala has never had to childproof anything.
@CockyLlamaDemocrat1mo1MO
good for her. “is your house child proof”? no. FU. don’t come. “will there be a vegan option”. no. FU. don’t come. “will your house smell bad”? yes, **** you. “will there be peanuts in the house?” yes. **** you. “do you use any non-organic cleaning productS?” yes. FU.

Just taking a moment to appreciate your wisdom and eloquence. That was Aristotle you were quoting, correct?
There's zero chance Kamala has the empathy to own a pet. She's the type of person who buys a puppy because it's trendy and a year later takes it down to the pound to be put down because it's too much trouble for her to take care of.

Proves the importance of motherhood. One step away from the most powerful position on Earth and that is her priority (as it should be)
Proves in a way that there is literally no job on earth more important. I’m sure stories about Melania and Barron in 2016 just drive the point home
I thought JD was kind of going for a low blow with the childless cat ladies thing but the news that Kamala Harris never invited JD Vance to the VP's residence as Usha was trying to figure out how to childproof it...Kamala never raised little kids like JD is right now.
@ExcitedNegotiationGreen1mo1MO
Pretty sure the childless cat ladies thing was not about someone not understanding child-proofing a residence
@MAGA_Deplorable1mo1MO
The childless cat ladies thing was a hilarious roast
@PopulistSavannahVeteran1mo1MO
Her post-election behavior is just more confirmation she’s not fit for the job, as if that wasn’t clearly evident.
@SkepTex 1mo1MO
Yeah, let’s elect the guy who refuses to certify election losses and makes repeated, baseless claims of fraud over the person who certified her loss without incident. /s
@MAGA_Deplorable1mo1MO
The 2020 Election was Stolen, beyond a shadow of a doubt. I can say this with certainty because polls show that if Americans had known about the Hunter Biden Laptop Story, they would have re-elected Trump. The only reason they didn't hear about it was because of Deep State Censorship. That's all the proof you should need.
@SkepTex 3wks3W
May I see the polls?
If the Hunter Biden Laptop Story is that Joe Biden committed a crime while in an office of government, no he didn’t. Not in any way that has been proven, at least. Evidence submitted in the House Oversight Committee’s Hearing for The Basis for an Impeachment Inquiry of President Joseph R. Biden was not sufficient to impeach the then president. (1) Hunter BIden’s org charts were shady-looking, but without evidence of misdemeanor or high crime by the president there is no basis for impeachment.
What do you mean by “Deep State Censorship?”

I would also like to point out Trump and friends’ own attempts to overthrow the 2020 elections.
The Obama's did that to the Trump’s too, first time around. I think they at least got in ahead but weeks after was customary.
@FondMajorityRepublican1mo1MO
The Biden Regime is the most reactionary administration of all time. Most likely very soon after this post and others gain traction, I wouldn’t be surprised to see sudden news of her team reaching out for a tour.
@GoofyBobolinkSocialist1mo1MO
Cut Kamala some slack. It’s a big house and she’s got hundreds of stashed mini-bottles to find and dispose of.
@B2DXJSR1mo1MO
WE don't know that Harris "snubbed" the Vance Family, I would be curious to see who wrote this story.
