Hi everyone that was Vice President Kamla Harris in Bucks County

Pennsylvania at a site chock full of symbolism and history miles from where

George Washington crossed the Delaware River during the American Revolution

the vice president making some history of her the across the political aisle and the political divide, something people thought

hardened beyond repair in this country until Kamla Harris's presidential

campaign sprung out this summer.

Republicans who have been left behind by the GOP's

capitulation to Donald Trump and transformation

into an arm of an authoritarian movement have flocked to her candidacy.

She was joined by more than 100 Republicans.

That includes former Republican congressman

and January 6th, select committee member Adam Kinzinger and former Georgia lieutenant governor Jeff Duncan, both of whom had prime time speaking

roles at her convention.

The Vice President's message to Republican voters today looking to turn the page on the

chaos of Donald Trump and his very explicit and specific plans now to rule as an authoritarian should he win in November.

That's where we start today.
