    For the Prosecution

    For the Prosecution

    She battled the banks. She opposed Proposition 8. Kamala Harris has often been described as a “progressive prosecutor.” But does her record as San Francisco District Attorney and California Attorney General back up that claim?

Story of the Next VP

Enjoyable podcast. Joy Reid can add this to her own impressive resume. Speaking of resumes, Kamala Harris has one we can all be proud of, including the years in Canada. I love origin stories, and hers is one of the best.

Side note after reading certain other reviews: Haters gonna hate. I always wonder why the right is so angry. Haven’t they been winning? Maybe winning isn’t as good when you have to cheat. Voter suppression. Gerrymandering. Intimidation. Just saying.

Get out of the way Joe Biden

Completely biased whitewashing. Cherry-picking what they want you to hear. The truth and info about this woman is out there, you just need to look it up. They only show you what they want you to see. Listening to this is only hours of your life you will never get back. Wondery has a plethora of great podcasts available to listen to, don’t waste your time on this one.
