Vice President Kamala Harris arrived at her office at the Eisenhower Executive Office Building after being accompanied by her alma mater Howard University’s drum line down Pennsylvania Avenue.

‘I’m just walking to work,’ Harris gleefully told reporters.

She walked hand-in-hand with her great-niece Amara and then clasped hands with husband Doug Emhoff as she turned onto West Executive Avenue into the White House complex.

There, the Army’s Herald Trumpets played for her, giving her an almost-royal entrance.

This year’s inauguration had to be pared down because of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic and the heightened security threat after the MAGA riot on Capitol Hill on January 6.

But both President Joe Biden and Harris got their parade – if only for the final block of Pennsylvania Avenue.

Biden was escorted up to the northwest front White House gate by the University of Delaware marching band.

Harris’ opening act was Howard’s drumline, along with the school’s Flashy Flags squad and the Ooh La La dancers.

Before that she drove in a black limo with new license plates that say ’49.’

As she approached the giant staircase facing the White House that leads up to the EEOB, a crowd of staff greeted her and cheered.

Harris is the country’s 49th vice president – and made history as the first woman and first person of color to be VP.

She and Biden followed other Democratic administrations in using D.C.’s protests plates that say ‘taxation without representation,’ pushing for D.C. statehood.

D.C.’s Mayor Muriel Bowser took a photo with Howard’s drumline and dancers before Harris and her entourage went by.

Harris didn’t stay put in her new digs for long.

She motorcaded up to the Senate to swear-in Georgia Democratic Sens. Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff, as well as her replacement, new California Democratic Sen. Alex Padilla.
