Biden Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo, a top surrogate for Vice President Kamala Harris, was called out during an interview this week over Harris’ refusal to answer questions and give access to the media.

Raimondo claimed during a CNBC interview Monday that Harris has been “crystal clear on her values, what she wants to fight for, and how she will do it.”

Her claim comes despite the fact that Harris has allegedly flip-flopped on numerous issues, according to what anonymous sources on her campaign tell friendly mainstream publications.

CNBC host Joe Kernen fired back at Raimondo: “The American people are frustrated, the media is frustrated that the amount of access anyone has got to her for the past 41 days, I know you’ve seen that, we’re finally going to have a debate tomorrow night, but she sat down for one interview that was taped, and then cut down and certain little things came out from it, but it has been a masterclass in avoiding any questions and nothing has been made clear by her.”

“Maybe it’s been made clear in drubs and drabs from her policymakers when it comes out in print or off a teleprompter at one of her scripted speeches,” he added. “She’s been impossible to pin down on anything because she hasn’t given any access. The American people deserve it.”

Harris has faced widespread criticism, even from friendly publications, over her refusal to sit for any kind of a live interview or answer any serious questions from a legitimate reporter, not a partisan commentator like CNN’s Dana Bash.

Raimondo was called out during a live interview last month for falsely suggesting that Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump made up numbers that were released by President Joe Biden’s Bureau of Labor Statistics.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that job growth throughout the 12 months ending in March would be revised downward by 818,000 jobs, a hefty drop that is roughly equivalent to 0.5% of total jobs. The downward revision was the largest in decades.

When asked during an ABC News interview whether the damaging jobs report could hurt Democrat presidential nominee Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign, Raimondo responded: “No, when I hear that, first of all, I don’t believe it because I have never heard Donald Trump saying anything truthful.”

The ABC News host quickly interjected: “It is, though, from the Bureau of Labor.”

“I don’t, I don’t, I’m not familiar with that,” Raimondo claimed.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were spotted at the US Open and later on a double date with Patrick and Brittany Mahomes — after the QB’s wife’s liked a post by former President Donald Trump, then went on defense against the “haters.”

On Sunday, the 34-year-old singer and her beau Kansas City Chiefs star Kelce had some fun in the sun at the tennis tournament, where the two shared a VIP box with the Mahomes, the New York Post reported.

The “Shake It Off” hitmaker and Kelce were then photographed looking stylish on their way to dinner in New York City at Meduza Mediterrania restaurant. Arriving separately — but to the same location — were the Kansas City Chiefs QB and his wife, the Post noted.

The group hanging out together comes amid speculation from some that there had been some rift between the ladies after Swift wasn’t seen hanging out with Brittany at the opening night of the Chiefs game in Arrowhead on Thursday.

Suggestions online came from the fact that it could be because Mahomes made headlines after she hit back at those who didn’t like that she had liked a post by Trump in which he outlined his 2024 Make America Great Again platform.

In the original post shared by Trump on Instagram, the former president listed “The 2024 GOP Platform” to “Make America Great Again,” noting things like tax cuts, no tax on tips, securing the border, and stopping illegal immigration. He also posted about a promise to “end inflation,” “Make America Affordable Again,” and “Keep men out of women’s sports.”

Brittany liked the post, without explaining which of the ideas she agreed with, hit back at those who tried to cancel her and delivered a clear message to leftist adults who were upset, OutKick reported.

“I mean honestly,” Brittany’s Instagram Story read. “To be a hater as an adult, you have to have some deep rooted issues you refuse to heal from childhood.”

“There’s no reason your brain is fully developed and you hate to see others doing well,” she added.

Not a week later, Mahomes’ wife appeared on the Whoop podcast and made it clear she doesn’t “give a f*** what people have to say about” her anymore, crediting her husband with teaching her not to worry about what others think, as previously reported.

“Yeah, I think we got kind of thrown into the fire together, and I think that’s what helped us, you know, do so well in the life that we are, is that we did it all together. And he is a lot better at it than I am, maybe because his dad played professional sports,” Brittany said. “So I think he was around it and he understood it a lot more than I did. So having him to help me get through it has helped a lot because he’s very good at, you know, managing those things and blocking people out.”
