Pro-Palestinian protesters interrupted Harris several times during her rally in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania.

At Wilkes University in Pennsylvania, Vice President Kamala Harris delivered a speech to a large audience for approximately 30 minutes on Friday. During her speech, she was interrupted by pro-Palestinian protesters at least twice.

A protester shouted about two-thirds of the way into her speech, "You’re supporting a war criminal."

The second person emerged shortly after the first one left, and shouted for several minutes before being removed, crying out "Free Palestine" as he was escorted past the media barrier.

Harris responded, "I value your opinion, but at present, I am continuing with my speech," while disregarding the interrupter's noise.

Mary Grace, a local nurse who has been a Republican for a long time, introduced Harris and stated that she could not support former President Trump.

She started her speech by mentioning the ABC News debate that took place earlier in the week, after thanking Sen. Robert P. Casey Jr., D-Pa., Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro and Wilkes-Barre Democratic mayor George Brown, who had spoken before her.

She remarked that many people here watched it, as the reference received applause.

"That night, I discussed topics that affect families nationwide, such as reducing living expenses, supporting small businesses, safeguarding reproductive rights, and ensuring national security. However, what we heard from Donald Trump was the same old routine, a worn-out script with no strategy for addressing the concerns of the American people. It's time to move on."

Trump's tax cuts will be "massive" for billionaires and corporations, while entitlements will be cut with a scalpel, according to Harris.

Some observers claim that the Republican's desire for a "Trump sales tax" is a reference to the former president's foreign tariff plans.

Harris emphasized the need for a "new way forward" in addressing national division, stating that "we are not going back" to past years.

"We require a President of the United States who works for the benefit of all Americans and ceases the efforts to divide us," she stated.

"People are exhausted with that stuff."

In the race, she predicted it would be tight and referred to herself as the "underdog."

Harris inquired, "Pennsylvania, are you prepared to express your opinions? Do we value liberty?"

Before Harris took the stage, Shapiro, who was believed to be the runner-up to Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz in Harris' running mate consideration, gave a booming endorsement as they made their way north on I-81 from Harrisburg.

"We have demonstrated that we can accomplish our goals with our slogan 'get sh— done'!" Shapiro exclaimed, referencing his gubernatorial administration's edgy slogan.

"When those kids go to and from schools, they deserve to live in safe communities," he added after investing a historic amount in our public schools.

"In Pennsylvania, we value everyone, regardless of whether you choose to be a lawyer or a laborer, and want you to know that you belong here."

Shapiro stated that the place you originate from, the individuals you cherish, and the deities you worship – you are accepted and I will support you. He added that Harris' campaign presents a comparable perspective.

Shapiro, who served as the separately-elected attorney general during the governorship of predecessor Tom Wolf, stated that both he and she have been prosecutors.

Kamala Harris has consistently advocated for the interests of the people... She defended the rights of our labor unions.

Shapiro added of Trump's tenure in the White House, "we are not going back to that."

"According to him, when examining Donald Trump's record, there were fewer jobs and significantly less freedom during his presidency. He also brought up the abortion issue, stating that women lost their "basic freedom to make decisions about their own bodies.""

Shapiro emphasized that Americans declared their independence from a king in Philadelphia, which is 100 miles away from where he spoke, and they will not go back.

The PA Trump Team spokesman, Kush Desai, stated to Planet Chronicle Digital that Pennsylvanians are frustrated with the increasing costs of groceries, gas, and utilities due to the inflationary and anti-energy policies of the Harris-Biden administration.

"Pennsylvanians have an easy choice between four more years of struggling retirees on ramen under Kamala or a return to the peace, prosperity, and stability of the Trump administration."

In the debate in Philadelphia, Harris mentioned the estimated 800,000 Polish-Americans living in Pennsylvania. The counties surrounding where Harris campaigned on Friday have a significant population of Polish-Americans.

In Luzerne County, Wilkes-Barre has a population that is one-sixth Polish American, and nearby cities like Nanticoke, Hazleton, and Shamokin in Northumberland County also have significant Polish American communities.

Desai stated that Trump is an "especially easy choice" for Pennsylvania's Polish-Americans due to his "blossoming friendship" with Polish President Andrzej Duda and his efforts to strengthen their alliance, including through NATO.

During the debate, Harris seemed to link the Polish-American voting bloc with her criticisms of Trump's plan to end the war in Ukraine, which is adjacent to Poland.

Harris stated, "You would give up quickly for favor and consider a friendship with a known dictator who would eat you for lunch, and I'll tell the 800,000 Polish Americans right here in Pennsylvania about it."
