    Well… I was wondering how long it would take you to go from posting anti-Biden articles to anti-Harris articles.

    Looks like it only took a couple of weeks.

        Except no it isn’t because they were inundating us with anti-Biden posts before he stepped down. And as has been pointed out elsewhere in the comments, the article is deceptive.

          If it’s raining a lot, they’re going to report on the rain a lot, too.

          And by what metric is this article deceptive? Her speech was interrupted, and there are uncommitted voters concerned about her gaza policy. They even referenced the conversation they had with Harris before the rally:

          Leaders of the Uncommitted National Movement, which supported voting “uncommitted” on Democratic primary ballots rather than voting for Biden, briefly spoke with Harris at the Detroit rally.

          “Michigan voters want to support you, but we need a policy that will save lives in Gaza right now. I meet with community members every day in Michigan who are losing tens and hundreds of family members in Gaza. Right now, we need an arms embargo,” Layla Elabed, a co-founder of Uncommitted, told Harris, according to the group.

          Y’all are just to traumatized to handle even the slightest political tension. This isn’t even necessarily a bad moment for Harris, it just alludes to some lingering disagreement between the base and leadership that has yet to be resolved, which is to be expected at this point.

          Go touch some grass or something.

      It’s from a very reputable news source, NBC News. Many other outlets are covering it too. They did an entire segment with pundits discussing it on CNN. It’s still a big issue that can’t be swept under the rug

      Here’s the CNN segment: https://youtu.be/jfyfdThTZ88

        Yes, the story is fine. The way it is being spun by you and the original source you provided is not.

        You don’t care that she spoke to the protesters before the rally began. You only care that she shut them down when they interrupted the rally.
