Kamala Harris Slams Protester at Book Tour [View all]

Kamala Harris Slams Protester at Book Tour

Laura Esposito

Former Vice President Kamala Harris had the last word for protesters who tried to disrupt her book tour event in Chicago on Saturday.

During an event promoting her memoir 107 Days, a small group of protesters shouted at the former presidential candidate over her handling of Israel’s war in Gaza, social media videos show.

Then Harris joined the back and forth: “Are you the same person who was telling people not to vote?” she asked demonstrators as audience members cheered.

The former vice president was seemingly referring to the uncommitted movement, which saw thousands of typically reliable Democratic voters cast their ballots “uncommitted” or abstain altogether in protest of the party’s backing of Israel.
