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.

    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.

          i like it the way it is now; we can see the them, but they can’t see us.
