1/OK, I finally started crying. This is a historic moment.
A quick Senator Kamala Harris, or rather, Vice-President Elect Kamala Harris thread.

2/So many of us believed in Kamala Harris from the start. (BTW the tiny bow was out of gratitude for how she eviscerated Jeff Sessions at his confirmation hearing.)

3/Many of us, like Reecie @blackwomenviews, Drew @sjs856, Kenny @2RawTooReal, Sydney @TheSydneyA, and Heather @heatherrosegoes defended Kamala against the misogynoir in the media and from some in the public that she faced (and will still face, but we will shut that down!).

4/Some of us were lucky enough to meet Kamala Harris (Vice-President Elect!!!) and got to witness her compassion, empathy, and brilliance up close. Kamala truly sees us, listens, and cares.

5/Many of us cried when Biden picked Kamala to be his VP because we knew she was the perfect choice. We knew she would energize the base and bring in new voters across the country and WOW she really did! (and donations POURED IN the moment she was picked)

6/Kamala Devi Harris is a trailblazer:
The 1st Black and South Asian Female AG in CA.
The 2nd Black Female Senator in the U.S. Senate.
The 1st Female VP.
The 1st Black and South Asian Female U.S. Vice President! We are proud of you Kamala, not just here, but around the world.

7/And @DouglasEmhoff! You are a trailblazer too! You'll be the 1st Second Gentleman. You'll be a shinning example to so many on how to beautifully support your partner, the 2nd most powerful person in the world, in this historic moment.
