LA CROSSE, WISCONSIN: GOP nominee Kamala Harris unabashedly called out hecklers who tried to interrupt her speech on abortion rights at a campaign rally in Wisconsin on Thursday, October 17, reported Fox News.

However, video clips of the moment went viral over social media, with MAGA claiming that one of the hecklers was shouting "Jesus is Lord" ahead of Harris' retort. It should be noted that the videos are unverified and their authenticity remains unconfirmed.



 

Kamala Harris addresses heckler at Wisconsin rally

Addressing voters at the Recreational Eagle Center on the University of Wisconsin's La Crosse campus, Vice President Harris attacked her Republican rival, former president Donald Trump for his role in overturning Roe v Wade.

"We will move forward because ours is a fight for the future, and it is a fight for freedom, for freedom. Like the fundamental freedom of a woman to make decisions about her own body and not have her government tell her what to do," said Harris of reproductive rights.

"And again, we’re not going to be gaslighted on this. We remember Donald Trump hand-selected three members of the United States Supreme Court with the intention that they would undo the protections of Roe v Wade, and they did as he intended."

Anti-abortion protesters present within the crowd tried to interrupt Harris at that point, to which she replied with a smile, "Oh, you guys are at the wrong rally. I think you meant to go to the smaller one down the street."



 

While Harris' supporters cheered her for taking a dig at Trump rallies, MAGA supporters on social media speculated that Harris was responding to a particular person who shouted, "Jesus is Lord."

Kamala Harris skipped Al Smith Catholic charity dinner

MAGA Catholics were also furious with Kamala Harris for not attending the 79th Alfred E Smith Memorial Foundation Dinner in New York City later on Thursday night.

According to Fox News, the charity dinner was first held in 1946 and has since raised millions to support women and children. Harris became the first major party presidential nominee since Walter Mondale in 1984 to skip the event.

MAGA slams Kamala Harris

MAGA supporters who made the unverified video of Kamala Harris responding to hecklers viral slammed the vice president and labeled her anti-Christian. The following tweets demonstrate their takes.

"She hates the fact that Jesus is Lord," wrote a user.



 

"Makes you wonder why democrats are so anti christ," stated another.



 

"At least they admit they hate Jesus. This is literally good vs evil," claimed a third.



 

"This is by far the most disgusting look into who this evil woman really is. Abortion=cheering. Jesus Is Lord=mocking. Absolutely gross. She’s a demon," tweeted a fourth.



 

"If she hates Jesus then she won’t mind losing the votes," jibed a fifth.



 

"Kamala is insane for saying this. Vote accordingly Christians," warned a sixth.



 

"Sick stuff. How could you vote for this administration and be a Christian?" remarked yet another.
