- Her Town Hall event in Manhattan was interrupted multiple times by pro‑Palestinian protesters alleging complicity in the Gaza war, and security removed the demonstrators as a crowd of nearly 1,500 booed.
- Addressing hecklers, Harris said, “I’m not president right now, there’s nothing I can do,” and urged the audience to “bring the temperature down.”
- She argued she warned early about starvation and the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and said her Selma remarks earned her “a lot of heat” inside the Biden White House.
- In 107 Days, Harris casts her 2024 loss as constrained by time, criticizes Biden’s team for undercutting her, and writes she declined Pete Buttigieg as a running mate because his being gay posed “too big of a risk.”
- The book tour and high‑profile interviews have drawn sharp criticism from Democrats and commentators who deem the memoir divisive or “embarrassing,” even as loyal supporters applaud her candor.
