Kamala Harris’s posts
While I may be the first woman in this office, I will not be the last—because every little girl watching tonight sees that this is a country of possibilities.
Don’t worry, Mr. President. I’ll see you at your trial.

This election is about so much more than or me. It’s about the soul of America and our willingness to fight for it. We have a lot of work ahead of us. Let’s get started.

These are not the words of a president. They are the words of a dictator.
. can unify the American people because he's spent his life fighting for us. And as president, he'll build an America that lives up to our ideals.
I'm honored to join him as our party's nominee for Vice President, and do what it takes to make him our Commander-in-Chief.
COVID-19 is still here. Please continue to wear a mask and practice social distancing.
I want to speak directly to the Black women in our country. Thank you. You are too often overlooked, and yet are asked time and again to step up and be the backbone of our democracy. We could not have done this without you.
You wouldn’t know a joke if one raised you.

Why is @KamalaHarris the only person that laughs at her jokes... always way to long and way too hard? The most disingenuous person in politics... after Hillary.

This race isn’t over until every single ballot is counted.
Starting tomorrow, and I will work to unify our country, tackle the challenges facing our nation, and renew the promise of America.
I have a message for all the little girls and boys out there who dream of growing up to be superheroes: Superheroes walk among us.
They’re teachers, doctors, scientists, vaccine researchers—and you can grow up to be like them too.
Now the real work begins.
To beat this pandemic.
To rebuild our economy.
To root out systemic racism in our justice system and society.
To combat the climate crisis.
To heal the soul of our nation.
The road ahead won't be easy. But America is ready. And so are and I.
How Donald Trump and Mike Pence handled the coronavirus crisis is the greatest failure of any American presidency.
Though we may be physically separated, we, the American people are united in spirit.
I hope every little girl watching tonight sees that this is a country of possibilities.

Let’s be clear: if you make under $400,000 a year, you won’t pay a penny more in taxes under a Biden-Harris administration.
In just a few months, we will swear in a new president who is committed to getting the pandemic under control: .
We have witnessed two systems of justice: one that let extremists storm the U.S. Capitol yesterday, and another that released tear gas on peaceful protestors last summer. It’s simply unacceptable.
As said yesterday, we are facing a dark winter if we don’t get coronavirus under control. Please wear a mask to reduce the spread and save lives.
To the American people—no matter who you voted for—I will strive to be a Vice President like was to President : loyal, honest, and prepared, waking up every day thinking of you and your families.
. and I are ready to get COVID-19 under control. We’re ready to rebuild our economy. We’re ready to meet the challenges of the climate crisis. We’re ready to act to address systemic racism. And we’re ready to fight for you.
We are still in the middle of a pandemic: mask up, wash your hands, and maintain social distancing.
Trump inherited the longest economic expansion in history from and . And then, like everything else he inherited, he ran it straight into the ground.
Ready.
I join President-elect in calling for the assault on the Capitol and our nation’s public servants to end, and as he said, “allow the work of democracy to go forward.”
Take a breath. Set your alarm. Try to get a good night’s rest.
We got this.
As said last night, it’s not up to us or Donald Trump to declare the winner of this election. The voters will decide.
Heartbroken. My friend and fellow Bison Chadwick Boseman was brilliant, kind, learned, and humble. He left too early but his life made a difference. Sending my sincere condolences to his family.
Dr. Ford has passed a polygraph test and given the Committee the results. Judge Kavanaugh has not. She has called for outside witnesses to testify. Judge Kavanaugh has not. She called for an FBI investigation. Judge Kavanaugh has not.
We are in a battle for the soul of this nation. But together, it's a battle we can win.
—I'm ready to get to work.

Happy birthday, . Thank you for pouring every ounce of yourself into empowering the next generation of leaders. Our country, and myself, are better off because of you.
I will always fight for a woman’s right to make a decision about her own body. It should be her decision and not Donald Trump’s.
. and I will eliminate the Trump tax cuts for the biggest corporations and super-wealthy, then get to work building an economy that works for working families.
The officers who murdered Breonna Taylor nearly three months ago still have not been charged. We can’t forget about Black women in our quest for justice.
Reply to this tweet to wish Kamala a happy birthday!

It’s vile.
It’s cowardly.
It’s xenophobic.
It’s racist.
It defiles the office of the President.
And I won't share it here.
It’s time to get Trump out of office and unite the country.
Make no mistake—Bill Barr will go down in history as having aided and abetted the most corrupt president this country has ever seen.
Wear a mask, not just for yourself but for those around you and the people you love.
It’s not enough to just save our economy. We need to build a system that gives all people, including people of color, a chance to succeed.
. and I are ready to write the next chapter in our nation’s history.
On day one, we're going to get to work building an economy that works for working families.
81 days. 81 days to organize, to mobilize, and fight to ensure we can finally say goodbye to the national nightmare we call Donald Trump.
I was so proud to stand with earlier today as our party's nominee for Vice President, and I do so mindful of all the heroic and ambitious women before me whose sacrifice, determination, and resilience makes my presence here even possible.
In eight days we’ll show every child in America—regardless of their color or gender—that there are no limits to who can lead and hold positions of power in our country.
George Floyd was murdered. Every single officer involved must be held accountable.
It’s been one week since George Floyd was murdered and the other three officers involved still have not been held accountable.
As our next president, will listen to experts and be honest with the American people about the pandemic. That’s true leadership.
Joe Biden has been very clear: he will not raise taxes on anybody who makes less than $400,000 a year.
The Biden-Harris plan to get this pandemic under control includes free testing and free vaccines available for everyone.
Why don’t they want us to vote? Why are they creating obstacles to us voting?
It’s this simple: when we vote things change. When we vote things get better. Vote.
Here’s the truth: Donald Trump inherited the longest economic expansion in history from and .
Just like everything else he inherited, he squandered it.
I’m with . Our first priority has to be to get control of this pandemic, get people back to work, and get our kids back to school. That’s our focus.
I am honored to accept the nomination for Vice President of the United States.
I do so, committed to the values my mother taught me and to a vision that shares—where all are welcome, no matter what we look like, where we come from, or who we love. #DemConvention
I’m thinking about my mother, Shyamala Gopalan Harris, and the generations of Black women who came before me who believed so deeply in an America where a moment like this is possible.

Despite the challenges facing us this year, a historic number of Americans have voted in this election. Their votes deserve to be counted.
Today Republicans denied the will of the American people by confirming a Supreme Court justice through an illegitimate process—all in their effort to gut the Affordable Care Act and strip health care from millions with pre-existing conditions.
We won’t forget this.
The moment and I walk into the White House, we will inherit a series of unprecedented challenges. Today's announced national security and foreign policy leaders have the knowledge and expertise to keep our country safe and restore America’s leadership around the world.
We just held an election, and our country made a clear choice: each vote for was a statement that health care should be a right—not a privilege.
And we won that election decisively, with more votes than have ever been cast in American history.
. centered unity at the heart of our campaign. He pledged to fight to restore the soul of our nation and bring us together. That’s the kind of leader he is—and the kind of president he will be.
Why would an incumbent president who has been in office for four years try to discourage people from voting?
It’s because he knows he cannot run on his record. He knows that, if enough people vote, he will lose.
The Biden-Harris administration will get COVID-19 under control by listening to the experts, implementing nationwide testing and tracing, and ensuring vaccines are safe and free for all.
From day one, and I are ready to get this virus under control, rebuild our economy, and tackle any challenges our administration will inherit.

In 39 days the Biden-Harris administration will rejoin the Paris Agreement and once again be global leaders in the fight against the climate crisis.
Hope.
Unity.
Decency.
Truth.
These are the ideals that will guide a -Harris administration.
Our country is facing a number of crises: a global pandemic, a recession, systemic racism, and the climate crisis. and I are ready to roll up our sleeves and get to work now.
The morning after our first date, emailed me a list of his available dates for the next couple of months: 'I want to see if we can make this work.' And we did.
Dougie, happy birthday. I could not imagine anyone else I’d rather be with on this journey called life.
To my supporters, it is with deep regret—but also with deep gratitude—that I am suspending my campaign today.
But I want to be clear with you: I will keep fighting every day for what this campaign has been about. Justice for the People. All the people.
We cannot let Donald Trump destroy the United States Postal Service. Congress must step up to ensure our nation’s seniors can get their life-saving medicine on time and that people can safely cast their ballots.
Thank you to the frontline workers, essential workers, and farm workers who have risked their own health and the health of their families to keep us safe and to keep our country running. We owe you a debt of gratitude.
The Biden-Harris plan to get coronavirus under control includes: free COVID-19 testing, treatment, and vaccines for everyone.
