The “Abandon Harris” campaign has endorsed third-party candidate Jill Stein for the upcoming presidential election.
The group claims both Vice President Kamala Harris and Former President Donald Trump are supporting an “Israeli project of Palestinian annihilation,” and is encouraging Americans to vote for the Green Party.
“In October 2023, under the darkening shadow of the U.S.-backed Israeli project of Palestinian annihilation, the Abandon Harris campaign – formerly Abandon Biden – was born. Our movement remains dedicated to ensuring that the American people, especially the Muslim-American community, recognize the responsibility we share in standing up against oppression and using all our power to stop genocide – wherever it may arise,” the group said in a press release.
“We are confronting two destructive forces: one currently overseeing a genocide and another equally committed to continuing it. Both are determined to see it through. We call on Muslim-Americans and all those who stand firmly against genocide to vote for the Green Party in 2024,” the press release states.
The Abandon Harris campaign says on its website that its “current goal is to hold Harris accountable for her continued support of genocide.”
“It’s painfully obvious that Kamala Harris can only sound articulate and firm when parroting US support for Israel,” the group wrote in an August post on X. “She fumbles through everything else, but when it comes to endorsing the killing of Palestinians, she suddenly finds a pristine level of eloquence,” the post continued.
In November 2023, Stein announced that she was running for president as a Green Party candidate.
She hopes to address the current “broken” political system.
“The political system is broken. Over 60% of us now say the two-party establishment has failed us and we need a party that serves the people,” she tweeted at the time.
In the video, Stein said, “People are tired of being thrown under the bus by wealthy elites and their bought politicians,” adding, “The political system is broken. The two Wall Street parties are bought and paid for.”
