Vice President Kamala Harris went off on a protester as she gave a speech where she mourned “the loss” of Palestinians who were killed during an Israeli military operation that rescued four hostages.
The vice president was the keynote speaker at the Michigan Democratic Party Legacy Dinner which was held on Saturday night, but before she began her speech she spoke about the hostage rescue operation, Mediaite reported.
“Before I begin, I just say a few words about the morning, which I know weighs heavily on all of our hearts,” the vice president said. .”On October 7, Hamas committed a brutal massacre of 1,200 innocent people and abducted 250 hostages.” “Thankfully, four of those hostages were reunited with their families tonight. And we mourn all of the innocent lives that have been lost in Gaza, including those tragically killed today.”
She began to speak about the administration’s effort to get both Israel and Hamas to agree to a ceasefire, but a female protester stood and began shouting at her, though it is not known what she said before security removed her.
“I value and respect your voice, but I’m speaking right now,” the vice president said sternly before continuing to talk about the prospective deal.
