<p>While officials are preparing for a massive influx of illegal immigrants at the U.S.-Mexico border, Vice President Kamala Harris took some time out of her busy schedule to take questions about Wordle.</p>
<p>Harris was initially tasked with addressing the &#8220;root causes&#8221; of illegal immigration over a year ago — and was roundly criticized for her <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/kamala-harris-visits-u-s-mexico-border-says-it-was-always-the-plan-to-go/">failure to even visit</a> the already overrun border facilities for weeks after taking on the task.</p>
<p>And the Biden administration&#8217;s plan to let Title 42 immigration restrictions lapse could make an already bad situation even worse — as officials will no longer be able to turn illegal immigrants away at the border due to concerns about the continued spread of COVID-19.</p>
<p>As The Daily Wire has previously reported, officials are bracing for illegal border crossings to skyrocket once Title 42 is no longer in place — with daily numbers <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/officials-bracing-for-18000-migrants-per-day-if-title-42-is-rescinded-republicans-slam-biden-admin-for-national-security-threats/">expected to reach</a> or even exceed 18,000 per day.</p>
<p>Despite worries about the expected increase, Harris has said little publicly in recent days about the border — or any other major policy. However, she did make time to speak with The Ringer just ahead of the Easter holiday about the popular New York Times daily word game.</p>
<p>The publication contacted Harris after learning at a recent Democratic National Committee (DNC) fundraiser that she was hooked on the game.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">“When I can&#39;t sleep I&#39;ve been doing Wordle,” <a href="https://twitter.com/KamalaHarris?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@KamalaHarris</a> said at a fundraiser for the DNC tonight</p>
<p>&mdash; Edward-Isaac Dovere (@IsaacDovere) <a href="https://twitter.com/IsaacDovere/status/1514385256371130370?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 13, 2022</a></p></blockquote>
<p>So The Ringer quickly contacted Harris, who responded by revealing her strategy — she starts with the same word every day — in addition to a few other tidbits about her word-game habits.</p>
<p>&#8220;I think that you have to have a healthy mix of consonants and vowels, and a lot of words come with an S,&#8221; Harris <a href="https://www.theringer.com/2022/4/18/23029515/kamala-harris-vice-president-wordle-daily-habit-strategy">said</a>, revealing that the word she begins with each day is &#8220;notes.&#8221;</p>
<p>She went on to note that, when she had trouble falling asleep, there were other word games that were her go-to distractions. &#8220;My nighttime ritual is the mini New York Times crossword. And then sudoku, although I don’t think I’ve pronounced that right ever. Wordle, for me, is like a brain cleanser. So it’s in the middle of very long days, back-to-back meetings on a lot of intense issues. If I have a break, let’s say that people are running late or my little 25 minutes for lunch, sometimes while I’m eating I’ll figure out Wordle.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I mean, I think that the design of Wordle is genius. First of all, five letters, but also only one word a day, right? It’s really genius. Because, you know, some other games over the years where you could then just get kind of hooked and really spend far too much time. I think it’s really a smart design,&#8221; Harris added, lamenting the fact that her phone did not allow her to share her scores.</p>
<p>Harris, who has often been criticized for a <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/kamala-harris-slammed-over-terrifying-explanation-of-war-in-ukraine-she-is-the-michael-scott-of-politics/">lack of substantive public appearances</a>, has been so absent lately that even NBC&#8217;s &#8220;Saturday Night Live&#8221; <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/snl-elon-musk-wants-to-buy-twitter-so-white-guys-can-say-the-n-word/">took a poke at her</a> during this past week&#8217;s &#8220;Weekend Update.&#8221;</p>
<p>Host Colin Jost referenced a viral video of President Joe Biden, who finished a speech at a North Carolina event and then apparently turned to shake hands with someone who was not there.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Your Weekend Update with Colin and Che! <a href="https://t.co/R3rAR28Dhc">pic.twitter.com/R3rAR28Dhc</a></p>
<p>&mdash; Saturday Night Live &#8211; SNL (@nbcsnl) <a href="https://twitter.com/nbcsnl/status/1515567176056508416?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 17, 2022</a></p></blockquote>
<p>&#8220;A video has also gone viral of President Biden finishing a speech in North Carolina, then apparently turning to shake hands with an invisible person,&#8221; Jost set himself up before delivering the punchline: &#8220;Hey, her name is Kamala.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;When was the last time you saw her?&#8221; he asked, as a few in the audience grumbled at his joke.</p>
