'Your Administration Killed My Son': Gold Star Families Blast Harris

Jaclyn Schmitz, the mother of Lance Cpl. Jared Schmitz, addressed Harris in her video, saying: "Our kids were murdered because of your administration, and you are partly to blame for that as well."

Jim McCollum, father of US Marine Lance Cpl. Rylee J McCollum, also blasted the VP. ...

In a group statement posted by Trump, the parents said they were "appalled" by Harris' "attempts to politicize" Trump's visit to the cemetery.

"President Trump was invited by us, the Gold Star families, to attend the solemn ceremonies commemorating the three-year anniversary of our children's deaths. He was there to honor their sacrifice, yet Vice President Kamala Harris has disgracefully twisted this sacred moment into a political policy."
