KAMALA HARRIS: "We must always defend peaceful protest & peaceful protesters. We should not confuse them w/those looting & committing acts of violence, including the shooter who was arrested for murder... We will not let these vigilantes and extremists derail the path to justice"

Harris: "The reality is that the life of a black person in America has never been treated as fully human. And we have yet to fulfill that promise of equal justice under law."

Harris: "The Republican convention is designed for one purpose -- to soothe Donald Trump& #39;s ego. To make him feel good."

Harris: "Here& #39;s what you have to understand about the nature of a pandemic. It& #39;s relentless. You can& #39;t stop it with a tweet. You can& #39;t create a distraction and hope it will go away."

Harris: "Instead of rising to meet the most difficult moment of his presidency, Donald Trump froze... the tragedy in all of this is it didn& #39;t have to be this bad. Look around. It& #39;s not like this and the rest of the world... all we needed was a competent president."
