When, in fact, these mother—-ers are crazy,” Harris said Monday during an event titled A Day of Unreasonable Conversation, as reported by Fox News.The comment, which did not directly name the Trump administration, drew applause from the audience, according to event footage.“I call this, ‘The Freedom Tour,’” she added, according to The Hollywood Reporter.View this post on InstagramA post shared by CNN (@cnn)Harris made the remark while promoting her new memoir, 107 Days, which she said was written to ensure that history includes her voice in recounting the unprecedented 2024 election.“One of the other reasons I wrote it is history is going to write about this. And it was important to me that that be told with my voice being present,” Harris said, as quoted by Fox News. “And I would say that everyone, we are living history right now. And you all as storytellers are living this. You’re not passive observers. You know that. You’re living it.”She added: “I’m gonna ask you that all the emotions that we are feeling, give those emotions, give that experience to those people that you are writing about and writing for. It gets back to my point about helping people just put a label on it, even if it doesn’t change the circumstance.”The former vice president then concluded by saying leaders in the current political climate are “crazy,” Fox News reported.A Day of Unreasonable Conversation is an invitation-only Los Angeles event that brings together cultural creators — including writers, producers, and artists — to discuss social and political issues.Responding to Harris’ remarks, White House spokesman Kush Desai told Fox News: “Kamala Harris should listen to an audio recording of her cackle of a laugh before calling anyone crazy.”Harris’ appearance, which was not listed on her official book tour schedule, also included a reflection on election night 2024. “I couldn’t articulate anything else — I kept saying over and over again, ‘My God, my God,’” she said, according to The Hollywood Reporter. “I had never felt that level of pain and grief except when my mother died, and it was grieving for the country. I knew what was going to happen.”Harris is currently on a nationwide book tour to promote 107 Days, which traces her perspective on the 2024 presidential race — from Joe Biden’s attempted re-election bid to her eventual loss to Donald Trump.During a stop in Houston on Saturday, she claimed the 2024 contest was “the closest presidential election in the 21st century,” insisting that Trump does not have a mandate. “He does not have a mandate! That is not a mandate!” Harris said, as quoted by Fox News.Despite losing both the Electoral College and the popular vote — with 75,019,617 votes to Trump’s 77,304,184 — Harris has repeatedly described the race as historic and closely fought.“By the way, what is also historic about that, in many ways — it was the closest election for president of the United States in the 21st century,” she said in September 2024 at Howard University.AdvertisementAdvertisementLoading Taboola...SubscribeSign InJournalism of CourageTop CategoriesLATEST STORIESIND vs WI | ‘We have got guys getting out the same way they were three or four years ago’: Darren SammyCristiano Ronaldo on why he continues to strive for 1000 goals even when his family tells him to stop playingJoan Kennedy, first wife of Senator Edward Kennedy, has diedIsraeli PM’s office rejects report claiming Qatari leader’s ally helped US write Netanyahu’s apologyWomen’s World Cup, IND vs SA: Why there is a buzz around Sree Charani in VizagCristiano Ronaldo becomes football’s first billionaire, says report‘Can’t be illegal’: Court refuses to restrain AAP’s Somnath Bharti from representing wife in defamation case against SitharamanChen Long, the affable Chinese badminton legend now moulding the Next Gen at BWF Junior World Championships in GuwahatiThree-language-policy committee begins gathering public opinion on the topic, releases questionnairesNMIA inauguration ‘dream come true’ for Maharashtra, PM expedited project: CM FadnavisPMC health services after 76 fall sick due to water-borne diseases in Bavdhan Budhruk‘We used to have music mehfils in the house; used to start at 9 at night and go on till 7 in the morning’: Shankar Mahadevan opens the doors to his beautiful holiday homeMastermind of Rs 4-crore fraud arrested from MohaliSohrabuddin encounter: CBI ‘accepts’ 2018 special court order, ‘won’t appeal acquittal of 22 persons’ Students, universities should not trust middlemen says Symbiosis Pro Chancellor after CBI files case against fake PMO official seeking admissionIndia vs Singapore: Can new coach Khalid Jamil pass his first big test?
