In full: Kamala Harris speech at Indianapolis sorority

Kamala Harris has claimed Donald Trump wants to take America back to a “dark past” with a “Project 2025” agenda.

Giving her second major speech of her presidential campaign, Ms Harris told the Zeta Phi Beta sorority in Indianapolis that her campaign was a “fight for the future”.

Ms Harris referred to “Project 2025”, a right-wing playbook for a second Trump administration created by the Heritage Foundation, a Washington think tank.

“Project 2025: a plan to return America to a dark past,” she said.

“They intend to cut Medicare to repeal our $35 cap on insulin. to eliminate the Department of Education, to end programs like Head Start ─ which would take away preschool for hundreds of thousands of children in our communities.

“This represents an outright attack on our children, our families and our future. These extremists want to take us back but we are not going back...Ours is a fight for the future.”

Project 2025 has been disowned by the Trump campaign, which says its recommendations do not represent the former president’s views.

Kamala Harris talking about not going back to the days of segregation to an audience whose membership is based on the color of their skin.

[resaresa]

😂 not as sickening as FJB, but close.

[shortygemini]

There is no one better than another. And in my opinion they are all corrupt. I talk about everything related to politics.

[JunkJournalBee]

First failure by Kamala: giving this speech instead of meeting with Netanyahu, prime minister of Israel. Shame on Kamala.

As a die-hard Biden supporter, her speech here and in Milwaukee is what convinced me that President Biden made the right choice. So while it is bittersweet to see that he won't have a second term, he will still be with us in spirit.

[gerry]

Did she talk about the coconut 🥥 that fell on her head !?
