Former Ambassador Ken Salazar Critiques Biden and Harris in New Book

Ken Salazar, former U.S. ambassador to Mexico, considered running for president in 2024 after Biden's debate performance.
He criticized the Biden administration's handling of the border crisis and called for more effective leadership from Vice President Kamala Harris.
Salazar's book reveals he advised the administration to acknowledge the border situation as a crisis, which he felt was ignored.
Despite his criticisms, Salazar ultimately did not run for president as the Democratic Party did not hold open primaries.
