JULY 25, 2024

Statement by Vice President Kamala Harris

Yesterday, at Union Station in Washington, D.C. we saw despicable acts by unpatriotic protestors and dangerous hate-fueled rhetoric.

I condemn any individuals associating with the brutal terrorist organization Hamas, which has vowed to annihilate the State of Israel and kill Jews. Pro-Hamas graffiti and rhetoric is abhorrent and we must not tolerate it in our nation.

I condemn the burning of the American flag. That flag is a symbol of our highest ideals as a nation and represents the promise of America. It should never be desecrated in that way.

I support the right to peacefully protest, but let’s be clear: Antisemitism, hate and violence of any kind have no place in our nation.

      How is calling out violence protests supporting genocide?

      She’s not pushing down Palestine or pushing Israel up.

        I am as confused as you are by this comment section. She’s also given statements that are anti-genocide as well. You can be opposed to multiple shitty things.

          all of our presidents have been enacting almost 75% of project 2025 recommendations since 1980 and they will continue to do so whether or not it’s kamala doing so.

          for 4 days tried to trick myself into being a clueless voter like you so i can vote for kamala; but it turns out suffering at the hands of democrats and republics for almost 5 decades won’t let me.

              i haven’t figured that out yet.

              kamala if she comes more strongly against the genocide; west or stein if she doesn’t.

        Geez, people here really need to learn what the downvote button is for. I can’t see any reason why this statement would deserve a downvote

          lemmy.world if full of shitlibs and; since they’re the biggest instance in this marxist/leninist social media network; downvotes should be expected.

            Frankly it’s past time for the leftist instances to defederate from .world. They’ve made it clear what they support over there.
