Vice President Kamala Harris on Sunday joined President Joe Biden in calling out anti-democratic forces in the U.S., saying “we have to admit there are attacks from within.”
Speaking on the 21st anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, Harris was asked on NBC’s “Meet the Press” how today’s domestic threat compares to the external threats then: — Vice President Kamala Harris “When we look at where we are, I think that we have to admit that there are attacks from within … And we need to take it seriously. And we need to stand up together, all of us, and think of this not through a partisan lens but as Americans,” Harris said, according to an NBC News transcript.
Harris said those who deny election results and refuse to condemn the Jan. 6, 2021 insurrection undermine the very concept of America. “I think what it sends is a signal that causes people to question, ‘Hey, is America still valuing what they talk about?’ – which is the integrity of democracies, which means protecting a rule of law and the sanctity of these systems and speaking up when they are attacked. And I’m very concerned about it.
