NEW YORK— Vice President Kamala Harris, the first woman to deliver a commencement speech at West Point, lauded graduating cadets Saturday for their noble sacrifice in serving their country, but noted they were entering an “unsettled world” because of Russian aggression and the rising threats from China.
“The world has drastically changed,” Harris told the roughly 950 graduating cadets. She referred to the global pandemic that took millions of lives and the fraught shifts in global politics in Europe and in Asia.
“It is clear you graduate into an increasingly unsettled world where long-standing principles are at risk,” she said.

How much has this administration contributed to the "unsettled" part?

Attended Fleet Week, Blue Angels show in SF once.
Lives in the Naval Observatory, VP's Mansion.
Bell Bottom dude was her favorite Village People...person.
She's from "Points West".(By way of Jamaica , which is east, and Canukistan, which is north)

After seeing this disaster of a VP, only a heartbeat or embolism away from the Oval Orifice. I am surprised the entire class didn’t march off in unison to the nearest cliff and jump off. God Save America!

Cackle, cackle, the world has changed because of our great moron leader who never ever had a brain cell that would have advanced American interests but is still busy pandering to all the enemies who paid him well. West Point just like the clown administration should not be alarmed if some silly spy balloon floats over all or most of our military installations, no, it was just a fluke of nothing. Our poop pants (p)resident knows best and that's what he stated about the incident. No need to assume anything else. Cackle, cackle...cackle....You will just have to learn how to stand down. Cackle, cackle.....

"It's an unsettled world, unsettled, and there is nothing more unsettling that a world that is unsettled"
And our Administration will do everything in its power to get you all killed for nothing.

Sadly, our military is edging ever closer to the abyss as each day grows closer.
A Cuba-fornia lie-beral that not-so-secretly hates our military giving a speech to depress them and break them down even more is just another sign of that slippery slope!!!
"Woke and Weak" is the Demon-Rats goal for our military!!!!!

The cackler ought to know about the "unsettled world" because she and her ilk have been the main cause of it. Of things military, however, she is perfectly ignorant.

Harris offered the cadets the Willie Brown special, but not one was interested.

#6 her father is a b lack Jamaican and acknowledges his family owned b lack slaves
as for "Russian aggression" I submit Western aggression (in the name of 'democracy' of course) has far exceeded anything Russia has done over the past 50 years. And why can we have a Monroe Doctrine but Russiia and China cannot?

If I was a graduate of this class, I would be so ticked that she was the commencement speaker, I probably wouldn’t have attended. I feel,sorry for this class. What a disappointment that must have been. 4 years of work for this.

"When we talk about the US Army, they are the Army of the United States. We are the United States of America because we are united… and we are states.
There is a long history of West Point graduates who made history throughout history. Throughout history is considered by some the best time to make history. Today is today. And yesterday was today yesterday. Tomorrow will be today tomorrow. So live today, so the future today will be as the past today as it is tomorrow."

The West Point standard must've gone down.

One of the cadets should have pointed out to her that since her boss was on the take from China, it should be one less thing to worry about.
Another "first" - aka: all style, no substance.
