@imgood3549 She admitted to smoking weed in college while claiming to have listened to Snoop Dogg and Tupac, who didn't put out records until the early 1990s. She graduated from college in 1986 and law school in 1989. Must have been ...

Then refused to comply with the Supreme Court when CA was ordered to release them because CA was enjoying the fruits of their cheap slave labor. Her office literally made that argument to SCOTUS in retort to their violating the law in defiance. Who is putting whom back in chains?

@imgood3549 I watched the interview several times. I'm not as bothered about her obvious pandering to that particular audience as I am about her actual enforcement of policies that violated Supreme Court orders to cease keeping people locked up for non-violent drug possession crimes, because, "If we release these inmates, the State is going to lose a lot of cheap slave labor, especially the non-violent ones who can be trusted to do work with less supervision." That was then-AG Harris' position. Meanwhile Trump ordered many of these people's sentences commuted, some who were 1st-time non-violent offenders like Alice Marie Johnson, who was already a great-grandmother by the time Trump commuted her life sentence. She was convicted in 1996 in the wake of Joe Biden's and the majority Democrat Congress's 1994 Crime Bill, which called for these kinds of mandatory sentences. Why would anyone want to go backwards from this kind of progress?

@jacc5844 I read through the voluminous wikepedia entries on her today, and it attempts to portray her as a fairytale story of the first female President basically. Especially offensive is the whitewashing of her time as a Deputy DA, and AG of CA, fighting for minorities as a bastion of the people.

DeepWaterBlack I'm offended that you would question the integrity and professionalism of our reporters, who work for companies that would never accept ad dollars from other huge corporations that never donate hundreds of millions to politicians and their campaigns. Shame on you!

Black Sand Then refused to let them free when the Supreme Court ordered CA to let them go. Reason? They needed the slave labor. This was the official court filings of her office.

@octopu5ie CA and other States have found ways using Biden's 1994 crime bill to keep non-violent drug offenders in prison while using them as cheap labor. Kamala Harris' own Attorney General office fought against the US Supreme Court when it ruled against States doing this, especially when prisons were overcrowded. A friend of ours was a teacher in the local prison. We went to her retirement party there, and I was surprised to see the outbuildings packed full of high-end office furniture. I then learned the non-violent inmates work there as assembly line laborers manufacturing these products. Seemed like a conflict of interest to me.

Not only did Kamala help put away thousands of non-violent 2nd-time green leaf possessors, she and her office fought against Supreme Court Rulings to release these prisoners even though SCOTUS ruled that using them as slave labor was considered cruel and unusual punishment: Ordered to reduce the population of California's overcrowded prisons, lawyers from then-Attorney General Kamala Harris' office argued the legal case that offenders needed to be kept in prison, otherwise the State would lose a key portion of its "free" prison labor. "They're gonna put you back in chains!" - Joe Biden

Not even the New York Times could spin horizontal Harris into a clean record VP pick for Biden, especially after her actual behavior in executive and legislative work targeting blacks and hispanics for imprisonment under the wave of criminalization of non-violent people (who just wanted to relax at the end of a hard day's work with a little green plant), but now faced Joe Biden's 1994 Crime Bill mandatory sentencing laws. Harris was happy to keep as many of them in jail, so she could present a record of being "tough on crime", while she bragged about smoking dope in college while listening to Snoop Dogg and Tupac-2 artists that didn't put out albums or even debut with other artists until 6 years after she graduated from Howard University in 1986. It's a match only politics-as-usual could make.

@hunkgod When I was in the Army, we never asked what party someone was from or cared about their color when planning and executing missions. We just got it done. When my neighbors have come to visit me in the hospital, I didn't ask them if they're a Democrat or Republican. When we've needed to clean up after storms, plow snow, or do neighborhood watch, we never asked what party someone is or cared about their race. But for some reason, we absolutely need these parties in State and Federal political bodies because.....reasons.
