JD Vance’s insult of “childless cat ladies” like Vice President Kamala Harris has sparked outrage. Harris received a powerful gesture of support from the mother of her stepchildren. “For over 10 years, since Cole and Ella were teenagers, Kamala has been a co-parent with Doug and I,” Kerstin Emhoff said. “She is loving, nurturing, fiercely protective and always present. I love our blended family and am grateful to have her in it.”
