Not only have former POTUS Barack and wife Michelle endorsed Kamala Harris. The ex wife of Bill Gates. Melinda has come out to endorse Harris for POTUS. Beyoncé has given Harris permission to use her song “Freedom” for her campaign.

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — All eyes were on Houston on Thursday as Vice President Kamala Harris addressed hundreds of teachers, school staff, and higher education workers. It was her first trip to Texas since President Joe Biden announced he would no longer seek reelection and endorsed Harris.

Harris arrived on Wednesday - a surprise early visit to Houston. She was welcomed by Mayor John Whitmire and other city and county officials. The White House said this is her second Texas stop this month after a keynote in Dallas.

Harris spent the day getting briefed on Hurricane Beryl’s recovery efforts, with a visit to Houston’s Office of Emergency Management. There, she also met with police and other emergency responders.

There has been a lot of finger-pointing as state, federal, and local officials clash over the response to Beryl.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott was out of the country when the storm hit. At one point, Biden said he was trying to contact Lt. Governor Dan Patrick, who Abbott put in charge.

Whitmire thanked Harris for her “partnership and encouragement” on Wednesday but issued a statement saying he hasn’t endorsed her yet since she hasn’t officially received the nomination.
