US Vice President Kamala Harris harshly criticizes Donald Trump's policies at a campaign event in Milwaukee, calling his agenda backward and divisive. Harris, who is considered the front-runner for the Democratic presidential nomination, has collected enough delegate pledges to become the presumptive nominee.
As she consolidates her lead, speculation arises about who she will choose as her running mate. Several names are being floated, including Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper, and Arizona Senator Mark Kelly.
The decision is expected to be made before the Democratic National Convention next month. Meanwhile, Harris and her husband Doug Emhoff are facing a wave of sexist, racist, and antisemitic attacks from the far-right online ecosystem.
The attacks target Harris's success and accuse her of sexual favors, while Emhoff is mocked. Conspiracy theories alleging a Jewish coup involving Harris are also circulating.
Despite her ties to the tech industry in California, Harris's stance on tech policy remains largely unknown. However, she has been involved in AI policy discussions and has expressed concerns about privacy and the spread of misinformation.
Additionally, Harris has focused on climate, energy, and clean technology, garnering support from environmental groups. While her policy stances on antitrust, crypto regulation, and immigration remain unclear, her ties to the tech and entertainment industries have been significant, with major contributions to her campaigns coming from companies such as Alphabet, Disney, AT&T, and Comcast.
