Kamala Harris Is the Birthright Citizenship Candidate. Kamala Harris is not a vice-presidential running mate who makes me any more excited about the thought of voting for Joe Biden.
With Donald Trump reverting to the usual last-ditch stunt of a failing president—trying to impose his agenda by executive order—it doesn’t seem helpful for Democrats to embrace a woman whose own campaign for president was based on all the things she promised to impose by executive order. It’s almost as if Democrats don’t object to a strongman, so long as the strongman (or strongwoman) is someone they like. Yet I have to admit that as a matter of electoral politics, Harris probably won’t make many people less likely to vote for Biden, and thus she constitutes the safe, “do no harm” choice. Given that this is how Biden himself got the vice-presidential job, it seems appropriate. Kamala Harris is the birthright citizenship candidate.

Kamala Harris Earns Praise From Former Prosecutors For Barr Questioning. Democratic senator and 2020 candidate Kamala Harris garnered praise from legal experts on Wednesday after she appeared to stump Attorney General William Barr more than once during his congressional testimony on his handling of special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia report.

Kamala Harris’ Greatest 2020 Strength—And Biggest Weakness. A former client of Michael Avenatti alleges the celebrity lawyer secretly pocketed his money after helping him secure a settlement, then tried to lend him back some of the funds with 10 percent interest.
That client, Gregory Barela, made the allegations in a statement of claims filed with Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (JAMS), a private arbitration organization. Barela’s lawyer provided the claim, which is not public, to The Daily Beast. “Avenatti was operating his law firm in a Ponzi scheme like manner, taking settlement proceeds received for clients to pay off debts, pay the other individual Defendants’ salaries and bonuses, and fund his lavish lifestyle, while telling clients that the settlement proceeds had not been received or would be received at a later date,” says the claim, which also targets two other lawyers at Avenatti’s firm.
