'I am speaking': Kamala fights to be heard over Gaza protesters

During a Wednesday rally in Harrisburg, PA, Democratic presidential candidate Vice President Kamala Harris was heckled by Gaza protestors who called her a "war criminal" and drowned her out while she was speaking.

Yelling could be heard in the background as she talked about Trump and "financial pressures." Her speech was derailed, with the yelling being met with boos from other attendees.

Eventually, Harris was able to raise her voice above the din, "We are six days out from an election. We are six days away from an election, and ours is about the fight for democracy and your right to be heard. Everyone has the right to be heard, but right now I am speaking."

Shortly after, another protestor blew a whistle and shouted "you’re a war criminal," the New York Post reported. Harris responded, "We love our democracy. It can be complicated at times, but it’s the best system in the world."

The Wednesday rally came hot on the heels of her speech from the Ellipse in Washington, DC, which saw pro-Palestinian protestors yelling "intifada" and “Free Palestine” while waving Palestinian flags in an overflow location for the rally just outside the park.

Harris’ "I am speaking" comment goes back to an August speech she gave in Detroit, where she was once again heckled by pro-Palestinian activists who chanted "Kamala! Kamala! You Can’t Hide! We Won’t Vote for Genocide!"

"I’m here because we believe in democracy. Everyone’s voice matters, but I am speaking now," she said. After additional disruptions, she told the crowd, "You know what? If you want Donald Trump to win, then say that. Otherwise, I’m speaking."

Prior to that, it was a line she used in a debate with Vice President Mike Pence during the 2020 election cycle when she was running to take the White House with Joe Biden.
