Vice President Harris hit some of the key notes she needed to hit in her closing argument to America on Tuesday night

On Tuesday night, Vice President Kamala Harris had a significant opportunity to deliver her closing arguments at the very site where the events of January 6th, 2021, occurred.  With deeply rooted beliefs shaping voter perceptions, we know a thing or two about confirmation bias: if you’re looking for hate, you’ll find it; if you’re searching for hope, that might show up too.
