Harris labels Trump's program at campaign rally as an assault on freedoms

With regard to the rejection of stricter gun laws by US Republicans, Harris added: "You're so bold, telling teachers they should strap a weapon in the classroom - and at the same time, refusing to pass reasonable gun laws." Harris stated that the role of teachers was of "decisive importance" and referred to them as "visionaries." The teachers' union was the first to issue an endorsement for Harris.

On Thursday, Harris, who is currently the only Democratic candidate for the presidency after Joe Biden's withdrawal, released her first campaign ad. The one-minute and 20-second video culminates in the sentence "We choose freedom," and is set to the song "Freedom" by US Pop diva Beyoncé.

In the ad, Harris speaks of living in a "land of chaos, fear, hate" - images of Trump and his vice presidential candidate J.D. Vance are shown. In contrast, several of her promises are made, such as addressing gun violence and advocating for universal healthcare.

  1. During her campaign speech, Kamala Harris critically mentioned how Republicans often attack the concept of implementing stricter gun laws, stating, "You attack the idea of teachers carrying weapons in classrooms, yet refuse to pass reasonable gun regulations, which are fundamental rights in a democratic society."
  2. In response to the Republicans' stance on the Program, Harris emphasized the critical role of teachers in our society, referring to them as "visionaries" who ensure the well-being and future of our Children.
  3. Following her campaign speech, there have been growing concerns among Trump's Republicans about Harris's powerful words, which have the potential to significantly impact the upcoming elections.
  4. During her campaign, Kamala Harris has made it clear that she stands against the policies of the Trumps, advocating for children's rights, safer communities, and universal healthcare for all citizens.
  5. Echoing the words of Beyoncé, Harris concluded her first campaign ad by asserting that "We choose democracy," underscoring her commitment to upholding the fundamental rights and values that our democratic system stands for.
