Former Vice President Kamala Harris was repeatedly pressed on whether she felt she couldn't raise concerns about former President Joe Biden's re-election campaign and if she was "deliberately" kept in the dark about the former president's health.
Harris insisted in an interview with the BBC's Laura Kuenssberg that aired Sunday that she had concerns about Biden running for president, but not about his ability to serve as president. She said she has reflected on whether she should have tried to talk to him about it, but was concerned that it would appear self-serving.
