Another tweet from Rep. Harris addressed what he perceived as bias from ABC News. He criticized a national news correspondent for making a personal attack and accused ABC of favoritism, stating that "This kind of personal attack from a national news correspondent is utterly unacceptable."

Lastly, Rep. Harris commented on the actions of California state leaders regarding cooperation with federal law enforcement agents. He remarked that "When California state leaders refuse to cooperate with Federal Law Enforcement Agents, they’re not defending peace—they’re defending disorder." He praised ICE officers for their role in protecting the country and its borders.
