Wants to strip legal immunity for future presidents, which would require constitutional changes. Biden s vice president, kamala harris has endorsed these reforms as her own presidential campaign takes hold.

It was a sacred duty. And the world saw how our diplomats rose to the challenge with determination and heart. U. S.
