"Thank you Liz!" chants for Liz Cheney as she takes the stage at the Harris rally in Ripon, Wisconsin

Liz Cheney: "I was a Republican even before Donald Trump started spray-tanning."

Liz Cheney: "I have never voted for a Democrat. But this year I am proudly casting my vote for Vice President Kamala Harris."

Liz Cheney: "In this election, putting patriotism ahead of partisanship is not an aspiration. It is our duty."

Trump: "Donald Trump was willing to sacrifice our Capitol to allow law enforcement officers to be beaten and brutalized in his name ... I don't care if you are a Democratic or a Republican or an independent, that is depravity and we must never become numb to it."

notable that Fox News is not carrying Liz Cheney's speech live

Liz Cheney: "Our institutions also held because of VP Mike Pence, who refused to violate his oath to the constitution. And that is why Mike Pence is not Donald Trump's running mate today. Instead, JD Vance is on the ticket."

Liz Cheney: "I am confident that John Adams meant women too."

Here's the end of Liz Cheney's remarkable speech at the Kamala Harris rally in Wisconsin. It was fantastic.

Cheney introduces Kamala Harris, prompting more "thank you Liz!" chants

Kamala Harris on Liz Cheney: "She's been an extraordinary national leader, and has served with great honor ... a true patriot. It is my profound honor to have your support."

HARRIS: Who will abide by the oath to preserve, protect, and defend the constitution?

CROWD: Ka-ma-la! Ka-ma-la!

HARRIS: And therein lies the profound difference between Donald Trump and me. Donald Trump lost the 2020 election.

Kamala Harris: "The tragic truth that we are facing in this election is that there is actually an honest question about whether one of the candidates will uphold the oath to the constitution."

Kamala Harris: "In the face of those who would endanger our magnificent experiment, people of every party must stand together."

Harris: "In our debate, Donald Trump couldn't bring himself to say he wanted Ukraine to win the war ... I believe that in the global struggle between tyranny and democracy, the president of the United States must always be on the side of freedom."

The Harris-Cheney rally is over. It was a remarkable display of bipartisanship. If you appreciate my thread covering it, please subscribe to my newsletter. I think you'll enjoy Public Notice and paid subscribers make my work possible. Thanks. publicnotice.co/subscribe

I'll be tweeting clips from @PatrioticMills's "How to Beat the Broligarchs" event this morning in this thread as part of my partnership with @SnapStream. Follow along!

Elizabeth Wilkins: "People are looking for different ideas. The bad version is that an undermining of people's faith in democracy leads to authoritarianism. The good version is that we get together to think about what we need in terms of power the ideas and the people to create a new common sense -- one that brings us back for the modern era to that marriage of democracy and capitalism, where democracy shapes markets for the public good."

@PatrioticMills @SnapStream Patriotic Millionaires founder Erica Payne: "Here's what happened. Doesn't matter who's in charge. Tax rates for the rich always go down."

Maria Bartiromo on a weaker than expected February jobs report: "The jobs picture is weakening. Weaker than expected jobs again in the month of February tells you that the Fed is gonna cut rates!"

BARTIROMO: We've got a meeting coming up. Does anyone on this panel think the Fed is gonna cut rates at the next meeting?

STEPHEN MOORE: Well, I don't think they should. I just don't see a case for lower interest rates right now. We still have inflation at the 3-4% range.

BARTIROMO: True

Bartiromo: "It would be Biden's recession."

Wyden: "Mr Kennedy has embraced conspiracy theories, quacks, charlatans, especially when it comes to the safety and efficacy of vaccines. He has made it his life's work to sow doubt and to discourage parents from getting their kids lifesaving vaccines. It has been lucrative for him."

Sen. Roger Wicker: "This nomination is unconventional, just like that New York developer who rode down the escalator in 2015 to announce his candidacy for president. That may be what makes Mr. Hegseth an excellent choice."
