Kamala Harris draws over 75,000 attendees in D.C. event, surpassing Trump’s January 6 rally

Vice President Kamala Harris spoke at the Ellipse in Washington, D.C., attracting over 75,000 attendees, significantly more than the 53,000 who attended Donald Trump's rally on January 6, 2021. The event caused overflow on the Washington Mall. While Harris addressed the crowd, Trump was in Pennsylvania, claiming she could not draw supporters. Harris' campaign has previously highlighted crowd sizes to contrast with Trump’s focus on attendance. In a separate incident, conservative pundit Ryan Girdusky faced backlash for comments made during a CNN appearance, leading to his apparent ban from the network. He criticized perceived double standards in media treatment of guests.
