<p><strong>Roy Wood Jr.</strong> is taking a moment to give Vice Presential <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/watch-tyre-nichols-funeral-live-video/?_gl=1*1jlv6db*_up*MQ..*_ga*NzQ1MjEwNjMuMTY4Mjk1NTI4OQ..*_ga_V2HX8YP3XL*MTY4Mjk2MjI5Mi4zLjEuMTY4Mjk2NDQ5OS4wLjAuMA.." target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Kamala Harris</strong></a> her flowers amid continual backlash over her constitutional efforts. In fact, the comedian called out the double standards that women in power often have to endure!</p>
<p>At The White House Correspondents&#8217; Dinner (WHCD) on Saturday, Wood had the opportunity to share a few words with attendees.</p>
<p>While he hilariously <a href="https://www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2023/04/30/roy-wood-jr-white-house-correspondents-dinner-cnntmw-vpx.cnn" target="_blank" rel="noopener">roasted</a> politicians like <strong>Donald Trump</strong> and <strong>Joe Biden</strong> at the dinner, he sweetly took a moment to acknowledge people&#8217;s critiques against Kamala Harris as well.</p>

<p>The Comedy Central personality segued to Kamala by calling the controversy surrounding her work efforts &#8220;the most insulting scandal&#8221; of the Biden Administration.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I think the most insulting scandal to fall to the feet of the Biden Administration was placed at the feet of our Madam Vice President. The scandal of &#8216;What Does Kamala Do?'&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>After slamming the inquiry as &#8220;disrespectful,&#8221; Wood pointed out, &#8220;Nobody ever asked that question about the vice president until a woman got the job.&#8221;</p>

<p>Amid audience cheers, Roy Wood brought former VP <strong>Mike Pence</strong> into the conversation—along with a coy reference to the January 6 attack on the Capitol.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t know what Mike Pence did. The only thing I know about Mike Pence is that he&#8217;s really good at playing hide-and-seek at the Capitol.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Wood humorously added, &#8220;Gotta be crafty to catch Mike Pence in that Capitol, baby. He knows all them nooks and crannies.&#8221;</p>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">Here&#8217;s What Our VP Kamala Harris Is Bringing To The Table</h3>
<p>It&#8217;s worth acknowledging some of Kamala Harris&#8217; accomplishments during her tenure as our VP.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/administration/vice-president-harris/#:~:text=As%20Senator%2C%20Vice%20President%20Harris,passed%20the%20Senate%20in%202018." target="_blank" rel="noopener">The White House</a> details Kamala&#8217;s efforts to &#8220;get America vaccinated, rebuild our economy, reduce child poverty, and pass an infrastructure law that will lift up communities that have been left behind.&#8221;</p>
<p>It&#8217;s also acknowledged that Kamala has &#8220;played a key role in engaging world leaders and strengthening our nation’s alliances and partnerships,&#8221; evidenced by her trip to Africa in March.</p>

<p>Of course, she&#8217;s also advocated for change in the U.S. As <em>The Shade Room </em>previously reported, Harris attended <strong>Tyre Nichols</strong>&#8216; funeral earlier this year and demanded that Congress pass the George Floyd Justice In Policing Act.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;As a United States Senator, I co-authored the George Floyd Justice In Policing Act. And as Vice President of the United States, we demand that Congress pass this act. Joe Biden WILL sign it, and we should not delay and we will not be denied. It is non-negotiable!&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>A quick scroll through the official U.S. Vice President Instagram account also highlights some of Kamala&#8217;s recent efforts.</p>
<p>Last week, Harris linked up with South Korean President <strong>Yoon Suk Yeol</strong> to explore how they could &#8220;monitor the impacts of the climate crisis.&#8221;</p>
