Kamala Harris was a progressive pioneer as San Francisco district attorney
Interesting article. The author, a public defender who faced off against Kamala Harris was on Rachel Maddow tonight. She talked about what she wrote, how she left out other good things Kamala apparently did in the article, and why she thought it was important as a public defender to defend DA Kamala Harris because she felt Kamala faced all criticism with no highlights or mentions of successes. I didn't know about any of that in the article.
Rachel Maddow and Lawrence O'Donnell tonight highlighted a time as AG when Kamala walked away from a $4 million relief bank settlement that was suppose to help homeowners due to the mortgage crisis. She demanded more money and got $18 million for the state, and other states got more money too. I had no idea she accomplished that.
It seems like people are coming to her defense since they know people are going to harp on her record as DA and AG again. I'm somewhat interested in learning more positive things that Kamala accomplished as DA and AG. I don't like to just go on anger, outrage, negatives and one sidedness. I like to see the full scope of positives and negatives.
