HARRIS ENDORSEMENTS GROW
US Vice President Kamala Harris has heaped praise on President Joe Biden in her first public appearance since the 81-year-old dramatically abandoned his reelection bid and endorsed her instead, Reuters reports.
Speaking at an event at the White House, Harris, 59, said: “Every day, our president, Joe Biden, fights for the American people and we are deeply, deeply grateful for his service to our nation.”
While she made no reference to the fact she is now the front-runner to be the Democratic candidate for president, on X her account she posted: “It’s the first full day of our campaign, so I’m heading up to Wilmington, DE later to say ‘hello’ to our staff in HQ.
