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.
So she lasted how many days before disappointing me? Four.
To be fair, this was already her modus operandi, she just has the spotlight for it now.
So much better than the other guy, though. Writing in a candidate will be fun for some people, but I’m choosing to vote for someone who 1) can win and 2) won’t strip away freedoms in the name of religion.
Fucking hope this site is in no way representative of the voting population, because Jesus Christ.
That, or all the “I’m totally a progressive that suddenly learned about Gaza last week and refuse to vote for Biden because of it” astroturfing is shifting their gears to Harris.
They were looking for a new unified attack vector, and then she went and said this and they realized they could just keep doing the same old tired shit.
Reminder: if you give a single shit about Palestine or the people who live there, you will do everything you can to prevent Trump and down ballot Republicans from winning. At all costs.
If you can’t see the forest for the trees, you’re gonna find out real quick what happens in Gaza when Trump wins. Assuming you actually give a shit about those people and aren’t just using them as political pawns to try to change the sentiment regarding Kamala Harris.
Great job justifying your vote for a pro-genocide candidate! You used a lot of words and did a nice whataboutism on Trump instead of focusing on how she’s going to continue to support Israel no matter what they do just like Joe did. 🚩
💯%
Dead on with that.

wouldnt it be easier to shove your phone? unless youre on a computer then i guess youd have to invite them over for dinner and make them play the scary maze game but instead of the exorcist face its that comment
Whataboutism adds nothing to the conversation and fails to address the criticism being discussed.
There’s people in this thread saying “well then I’m gonna write in a socialist”
This isn’t whataboutism, this is actual existential threat to this country and the stability of all the countries we send our military to. Kamala Harris’ comments on the anti-genocide protest are wholly unacceptable and present the overall message as Pro-HAMAS, which it distinctly isn’t, but we do still have to think about which piece of shit benefits most from writing in someone who cannot win in a first past the post election
The US hasn’t had democracy for at least 40 years. The owner class decide who we are allowed to elect (the money filter). The elected enact the policies that the owner class want.
Here is a tweet from Bernie from today:
Lina Khan, Chair of the FTC, pushed to get the non-compete agreement ban passed. Reid Hoffman is the Dem’s version of Peter Thiel. He paid Harris $7 million so she will fire Khan and reinstate non-compete agreements once elected.
Results from a 2014 Princeton study that took data from nearly 2000 public opinion surveys over a 20 year span and compared it to the policies that ended up becoming law.
“The preferences of the average American appear to have only a miniscule, near-zero, statistically non-significant impact upon public policy.”

The corporate duopoly bought and paid for the government a long time ago. The only solution is a united front based along class lines (working class vs owner class). Everything else is a distraction.
40 years? my guy u are talking about a genocidal slave sate that was created in order to preserve slavery and commit more genocides a country where for much of its existence only white men with land could vote a country were when those blatant forms of discrimination became untenable did everything it could to ensure that only those people had any impact on politics. amerikkka was never a democracy
Didn’t know Bernie made so many typos
Most of the population doesn’t live in a swing state
Says the person whatabouting the sh*t out of a war that, suprise, you don’t get to vote on.
oh ok sorry
Democrats seem very eager to re-elect blue-flavored genocide. I’m very glad you feel so excited about her chances to win. I think the Palestinian children getting headshot by Israelis will be overjoyed to hear about the freedoms you will enjoy.
It’s a travesty, but after a cease fire is drafted and world news starts covering something else, we’re still stuck with whoever is president. I’ve never voted based on one single issue. There’s lots of stuff to consider.
lol there goes my support
Fooled me with missing that speech ngl
Well I’ll be Martha, the Russian shill is not going to vote a democrat for president!?
What is this world coming to?
She planned to meet with him privately. she wasn’t skipping the speech out of moral principal, she just had a prior obligation
Before? Who knows what she was going to say privately!
But now this public statement is enough to tell us exactly what she’s going to say.
You know what, nah. Fuck you Kamala, I’m writing in a socialist.
Had my vote for about 3 seconds.
Condemning a country for carrying out a genocide ≠ antisemitism. God I’m tired of doublespeak always winning.
Daily reminder that ACAB.
Common Kopala L.
So, it begins.
US History repeating itself, ad nauseum.
I support the right to peacefully protest
She wants to change our profile picture or whatever empty performative gesturing fits her agenda, doesn’t she?
Jesus, we kicked Biden out because he was supporting Israel. Is she really going full-swing into loosing support of the people?
We need to demand that she steps down.
we kicked Biden out because he was supporting Israel
Nah, the wealthy donors kicked him out because they lost confidence in him, ostensibly because of his health. They don’t respond to the needs and opinions of their subjects.
Is she really going full-swing into loosing support of the people?
All day, because your support doesn’t matter to the rulers and their paymasters.
We need to demand that she steps down.
Sure, but again your demands don’t matter to the rulers and their paymasters.
Sooo, don’t vote… this is a Voter suppression thread

I’m trying to call out all the Russian bots trying to suppress votes for the Dems.

I’m going to avoid the low hanging fruit of you taking the credit for Biden for the sake of Palestine and try to appeal to your sense of reason. This war in Palestine,like so many others around the world, is NOT something you get to vote on. Isreal is a near century old institution fully backed by the U.S. government. The vested money that goes into the continuing strife in the middle East has corrupted EVERY political candidate that has come to the forefront of U.S. politics. You won’t find a candidate out there that will openly oppose Israel.
There are a few socialist and anti-war parties running in the US, like the party for socialism and liberation, the green party, and a few others.
Ok throw your vote away. Russian bots be on a losing kick all the sudden.
Misrepresenting the title of that video speaks more than you know.
Edit: say something that doesn’t make you look like a bot
The vested money that goes into the continuing strife in the middle East has corrupted EVERY political candidate that has come to the forefront of U.S. politics. You won’t find a candidate out there that will openly oppose Israel.
here’s one that got blocked by the dnc twice
perhaps it’s not the candidates but rather the dnc or, atleast, a select few that won’t allow these candidates to have a real chance.
So don’t vote, throw it all away, why do you crave communtiy support for ridiculous actions. Do it on your own.

Nah, I want someone who can actually beat Trump. Hilary lost because she was too far right. Harris will loose because she was too far right.
We need someone who will actually meet the demands of the younger generation (West, Sanders, AOC, etc). Otherwise Trump will win.
Learn from history.

She’s not far right. She’s center-right. And lots of people just won’t vote for her
Omfg
Please don’t post pictures of screenshots. Copy and paste the text.
Sorry, I’ll edit the body with it.
Fuck you, Kamala.
Big oof.
Hamas is bad. Palestine is good. Is it so hard for them to include that simple distinction?
Fuck Hamas, fuck terrorists. support civilians, life, liberty.
For those in the back, fuck Israeli government doing this absolutely genocide, support jews experiencing antisemitism.
