Dreamwidth and twitter are not good friends at all, so these are going to have to happen as links rather than linked embeds, alas.

This woman is great: [profile] blackwomenviews. Pretty much the #KHive maven!

This is her Mega Kamala Harris thread.

More specifically on her tenure as California's AG . It's pretty long and involved, and no, she wasn't perfect and all of her policies weren't stellar. My take-away is that she consistently tried to do better.

Her opposition to the death penalty, which I find abhorrent, is a very important me as well.

As for private prisons, she specifically grilled Barr at his confirmation hearing about the DOJ ending the use of for profit prisons. She's specifically said "Private prisons are a rotten deal for taxpayers and it’s abhorrent we incentivize corporations to profit off the incarceration of millions," so I'm pretty sure she didn't want the DOJ to use MOAR private prisons. Here's the twitter thread that tweet came from.

To be honest a lot of the on Kamala-is-a-cop stuff is coming from... right wing sites, and alas, many progressives are eating it up. Like my mother. Who is angry that Kamala took Biden down a notch, when he's our "best chance at beating Trump", and who "doesn't beleive" that Biden said all the stuff he said in the past week.
