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.

      Why are you disappointed that she’s speaking up against anti Semitism?

        Anti-zionism is not anti-semitism, no matter how much western politicians like Kamala want to conflate the two.

        I don’t believe that you’re asking in good faith. And if you are, you’re fucking stupid. Fuck you.

          I guess it’s easier to say fuck you than to answer a question while facing the hypocrisy of your view of the world

      To be fair, this was already her modus operandi, she just has the spotlight for it now.

      How did calling out violent protests disappoint you? Because she’s not supporting Israel or pushing down Palestine.

        where was the violence? burning flags is not violence. burning effigies of genocidal monsters is not violence. tagging graffiti and spraypainting a replica of the liberty bell is not violence. there weren’t any “violent” protests.
