Obama: "What we've seen in a way that is unique to modern political history is a President who is explicit in trying to discourage people from voting. What we've never seen before is a President say, 'I'm going to try to actively kneecap the postal service to encourage voting..." — PolitiTweet.org

Barack Obama took on Donald Trump's attempts to stall funding for the postal service in a podcast published Friday, slamming his predecessor's opposition to the much-needed funds as a craven attempt to boost his chances of winning in November. Our story: https://t.co/Y1Zx0yoaGA — PolitiTweet.org

In which @davidplouffe says Obama closed well in both of his presidential races "with the exception to that one debate." Obama: "Yeah, we had one stinker in there." Plouffe: "That wasn't just on you, we all…" Obama: "No... it was basically on me." https://t.co/W89oWvsYgF — PolitiTweet.org

Obama, @davidplouffe podcast, heralds Harris, knocks Pence by name: "She is smart. She is tough. She is somebody who I think will be able to share the stage with Mike Pence, or whoever else, and dissect some of the terrible decisions" by Trump admin. https://t.co/PHQrlM8ten — PolitiTweet.org

Most notable, however, is how significant the campaign's fundraising was during the first Biden-Harris event on Wednesday, when they had their biggest fundraising hour from 5p to 6p. The campaign raised an eye-popping $3+ million during that hour, a Biden aide said. — PolitiTweet.org

Dan Merica @merica

The Biden-Harris campaign has seen a boon in fundraising since the senator was selected. The campaign announced Thursday that they raised a combined $34.2 million on Tuesday, the day Harris was announced, and Wednesday, the day the duo held their first campaign event. — PolitiTweet.org

Harris says Trump is to blame for the massive unemployment right now - noting the months of employment gains as Obama-Biden left office. “Like everything else he inherited," Harris says, "he ran it straight into the ground.” — PolitiTweet.org

You have to imagine this is going to become the centerpiece of Harris' campaign pitch: "As someone who has presented my fair share of arguments in court, the case against Donald Trump and Mike Pence is open and shut." — PolitiTweet.org

Dan Merica @merica

Harris goes directly at Trump: "We have a president who cares more about himself than the people who elected him." — PolitiTweet.org

Dan Merica @merica

Biden says something he liked about Harris was the fact she would be direct with him, saying he asked her to "always tell me the truth," "challenge my assumptions" and "ask the hard questions." Biden certainly learned about that directness at the first Democratic primary debate. — PolitiTweet.org

Dan Merica @merica

Biden lauds Harris and her experience: "Her story is America’s story, different than mine in many particulars, but also not so different in the essentials. She has worked hard, she has never backed down from a challenge." — PolitiTweet.org

Joe Biden on Kamala Harris: "I have no doubt that I picked the right person to join me as the next Vice President of the United States of America." — PolitiTweet.org

Dan Merica @merica

Biden gave other candidates a real look. But multiple people who Biden spoke with during the vetting process said they got a sense the Harris was always a top choice. "I always felt he would come back to his comfort zone," said a close Biden friend, "which was Kamala Harris." — PolitiTweet.org
