She's a Democrat from California, first elected the Senate in 2016 after 20 years as a prosecutor, including stints as the district attorney for San Francisco and Attorney General of California.

And Senator Harris has also been laying the groundwork for a run for the White House.

It is great to have you with us on this special holiday.

You'd like to think I am running for president of the United States, and I'm very excited about it.

If you win, you're gonna be commander in chief.

What qualifies you to be commander in chief?

Well, first of all, let me just say I love my country.

And this is a moment in time that I feel a sense of responsibility to stand up and fight for the best of who we are.

And that fight will always include as one of the highest priorities our national security and thinking about it in a way that we understand that we must be smart.

We must understand the power that we have, The strength that we have that is about military power is about diplomatic power.

It is about the power that we have in terms of what has been until recently, our moral authority in the world and our ability to work with our allies.

As you said, my entire career has been focused on keeping people safe.

It is probably one of the things that motivates me more than anything else.

And when I look at this moment in time, I know that the American people deserve to have somebody who was gonna fight for them, who's going to see them, who will hear them, who care about them, will be concerned about their experience and put them in front of self interest.

You also love your family and for people who do not know.

Your father was born in Jamaica, and they met when they were both involved in the civil rights movement is exactly in California at Berkeley and packed your mother met Martin Luther King Jr.

Yes, she did cannot be lost that you're making the announcement That's right.

You know, Dr King, my parents were very active in the civil rights movement and that's the language that I grew up hearing.

And it was about a belief that we are a country that was founded on noble ideals.

And we are the best of who we are when we fight to achieve those ideals.

And the thing about Dr King that always inspires me is he was aspirational.

He was aspirational, like our country's aspirational.

We know that we have not yet reached those ideals.

But our strength is that we fight to reach those ideals.

And that inspires me because it is true that we are, ah, country that, yes, we are flawed way are not perfect.

But we are a great country when we think about the principles upon which were founded And yes, so today, the day we celebrate Dr King is a very special day for all of us as Americans and and I'm honored to be able to make my announcement on the day that we commemorate him.

President Trump has already said he wants to run again in 2020.

You sit on the Senate Intelligence Committee to Senate Judiciary Committee.

You've been looking at the Russia investigation.

Have you seen any evidence that President Trump has committed an impeachable offense?

I cannot talk about the evidence that I've received in the Senate Intelligence Committee, but I will say that there is no question that Bob Mueller is conducting an investigation with the highest level of integrity.

He is clearly taking the job very seriously.

They've already been 33 indictments, and it is incumbent on the United States Congress to do everything in our power to ensure that his investigation is is whole and will be complete without any interference.

Sounds like you don't think William Barr, the president's nominee for attorney general, can oversee it in a fair manner.

And during the course of the questioning of him, because I sit on the Senate Judiciary Committee, I expressed great concern, and I am very concerned that he was unwilling to agree that if the career people in the Department of Justice say is a conflict and that he should recuse himself, he wasn't willing to agree that he would do that.

We cannot go back to your point about my career.

My entire career has been focused on our system of justice.

It is one of the hallmarks of what gives us strength as a democracy, and it becomes weak when people interfere with that system for political purpose and no one in particular right now, when there so many Americans that are distrustful of their government and its leaders and institutions.

No one should give the American public any reason to question their integrity or the integrity of our system of justice.

You've had a long career only two years in Washington, and the senior senator from your state of California says while she adores you, that she would support if he should run former Vice president Joe Biden.

What do you say to people who feel that you you don't have the necessary experience to be commander in chief?

Well, first, I'll say that they have a long standing relationship.

They go back many, many years because their career started together in Washington, D.

I have the unique experience of having been a leader in local government, state, government and federal government.

What I believe the American people want and their next commander in chief is someone who has leadership skills, who has experience and has integrity and will fight on their behalf.

And on all of those points, I feel very confident about my ability to to to lead.

I feel very confident about my ability to listen and to work on behalf of the American public.

The American public wants a fighter, and they want someone that's gonna fight like heck for them and not fight based on self interested.

And I'm sure the Americans are coming up in there than they're letting you know what is most important to.

Ryan said that What are you hearing from them?

What I'm hearing from them is that they want to know that we're gonna focus on the fact that right now this economy is not working for working people.

They're gonna want to know those 800,000 people who have dedicated themselves to public service.

They're gonna want to know we're not playing politics with their livelihood and their ability to pay rent at the end of the month.

Because let me be clear, Robin, And you know this.

Those folks don't want a wall, they want a paycheck.

And as leaders, we need to be able to give them some certainty that we understand what their lives are like.

They've got to pay their bills, they gotta put food on the table.

They've got to send their Children to soccer practice and and go to the tutor.

Nobody else that they require to help them is gonna work for free.

And this is what I hear everywhere I go that their leaders and in particular their president, sees them and understands their needs.

And right now there are a lot of working families in America whose needs are not being met.

Wages have remained stagnant For the most stagnant, for the most part, have been so many folks who are working two and three jobs to pay the bills.

Nobody should have to work more than one job to be able to pay their rent.

So there are a lot of issues that I hear when I travel this country, and I'm prepared to discuss and listen more and I'm prepared to lead.

You also say you're prepared to speak the truth even when it's uncomfortable.

One of those uncomfortable truths you speak for a lot of Democrats, you say the left half to get it, get over it.

And do you think that's gonna be a problem for you in the Democratic primaries?

It is a false choice to suggest that communities don't want law enforcement.
