BREAKING: Harris remembers 9/11 at Fairfax, Va., ceremony
While the most of the news seems to focus on chasing down whatever fiction pops into Trump's head, our Democratic ticket is out there acting like leaders reminding us of the importance of coming together. On 9/11, while Trump suggests that he is going to send in forces on election day in an effort to disrupt elections, our ticket is trying to pull us together.

Harris told the few dozen service members and an accumulation of onlookers from nearby buildings that she was at the gym, working out in the early morning in California when she saw planes hit the World Trade Center 19 years ago.
Everyone stopped, got off their equipment, and we all just watched in utter disbelief, Harris said. Strangers were hugging each other. People who had never spoken to each other before were holding each other.
Harris said that Americans first instinct was to hug and hold each other perfect strangers understanding at our core, without reflection, without thinking about it, that were all in this together.
Honoring them is also about reminding us who we are as Americans, she said. In times of tragedy, in times of despair, in times of suffering and pain, we, by our very nature of who we are, we stand together.
