Former Vice President Kamala Harris returned to the political scene with a fiery speech on Wednesday night in which she slammed the Trump administration’s first 100 days.
Harris had a very negative, often angry-sounding message in her first speech since she left office, even saying, "we are seeing the wholesale abandonment" of American ideals in reference to President Donald Trump's priorities.
"Now, I know tonight's event happens to coincide with the 100 days after the inauguration, and I'll leave to others to give a full accounting of what has happened so far," she said. "But I will say this. Instead of the administration working to advance America's highest ideals, we are witnessing the wholesale abandonment of those ideals."
