   Vice President Kamala Harris, the previous San Francisco district attorney,   
   returned to her former area to gather funds for the Biden-Harris reelection   
   campaign.   
      
   Upon arrival, she was met by a large group of over a hundred pro-Palestinian   
   demonstrators.   
      
   Her visit to the Bay Area coincided with former President Trump's upcoming   
   attendance at a fundraising event in San Francisco, occurring precisely a   
   week after his conviction on 34 felony charges related to falsifying records   
   in a scandal involving hush money payments to a pornographic actor.   
      
   Before reaching San Francisco, Harris had participated in a fundraising   
   event at a private residence in the Oakland Hills.   
      
   While the attendees entered the venue, a group of demonstrators supporting   
   Palestine congregated outside the location where Harris was scheduled to   
   address the crowd and chanted, "Shame on you!" and "Cease fire!" as   
   attendees walked inside.   
      
   At the request of the police, the protesters were urged to relocate further   
   down the street from the venue, with the threat of arrests looming.   
      
   Barriers were promptly erected between the protesters and law enforcement.   
   The activists' voices became more pronounced as the vice president's convoy   
   drew near.   
      
   Meanwhile, within a cozy live music spot in San Francisco's Mission   
   district, Harris engaged with around 100 backers, acknowledging some   
   familiar faces from her tenure in Bay Area politics.   
      
   "We have all been involved in these four-year cycles many times together,”   
   Harris said. “We have almost every time talked about ‘this is the one.’   
   Well, this year is the one. Everything is at stake in this election.”   
      
   The event was organized by Democratic contributors Shannon Hunt-Scott, Stacy   
   Mason, and Sheila Thompson, along with small-business proprietor Manny   
   Yekutiel, who manages a community venue hosting civic functions.   
      
   In the segment of the gathering open to reporters, Harris did not touch upon   
   Trump's legal troubles or President Biden's recent order limiting asylum   
   seekers at the southern border.   
      
   Throughout her 13-minute speech, Harris focused on the diminishing abortion   
   rights in various states and reiterated her plea for a truce in the conflict   
   between Israel and Hamas.   
      
   “What we’ve seen in Gaza is far too many innocent civilians being killed,"   
   she said. "Humanitarian aid being denied in many cases. The president and I   
   have been very clear. This war must end, we need a cease-fire, we need the   
   hostages out, we need aid going in, and we need to be committed to a two-   
   state solution.”
