Smith Memorial Foundation Dinner, sending a pre-recorded message instead. Harris faced criticism for not attending the bipartisan charity event. The event, known for political figures poking fun at each other, was hosted by Gaffigan and featured former President Donald Trump as the speaker. Harris’ absence was noted by the New York Archbishop Timothy Dolan, who expressed disappointment on his podcast.
