Kamala Harris to hold symbolic closing argument speech on Ellipse

The Kamala Harris presidential campaign announced Wednesday that the Vice President will hold a “closing argument” speech on Tuesday in Washington, D.C.

The speech, held a week before Election Day, will take place on the National Ellipse outside of the White House. Harris will stand in the same place where Donald Trump held his “stop the steal” rally on January 6th, 2021.

At that rally, Trump sent a mob from the Ellipse to the Capitol in an effort to violently overturn the 2020 election. The mob erected gallows on the Capitol lawn, chanting to hang then-Vice President Mike Pence. The Trump supporters who attacked the Capitol assaulted numerous Capitol Police officers and ransacked the building.

According to The Washington Post, Harris is expected to remind the American people of January 6th and the danger Trump poses to democracy.
