The convention kicked off Monday with President Joe Biden speaking approximately 72 hours earlier than he and we would have expected a month ago. (The new nominee, Vice President Kamala Harris, speaks Thursday.)
Former secretary of state and former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton also spoke, and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) delivered a barn burner.
Ocasio-Cortez cast Trump as no ally of working people, saying he would “sell this country for a dollar if it meant lining his own pockets and greasing the palms of his Wall Street friends.”
Pro-Palestinian protests near the convention loom, particularly with organizers suggesting tens of thousands would show up. But the actual turnout thus far appears quite a bit lower.
A small group of the protesters briefly broke away from a planned march Monday, creating a tense standoff with police. Some apparently uncommitted delegates unfurled a banner during Biden’s speech. And Sen. Gary Peters (D-Mich.), meanwhile, suggested Harris should be unafraid to differentiate herself from Biden’s long-standing pro-Israel stance.
