Legal Group Launches Multiple Investigations Into Kamala Harris’ Record

America First Legal, a conservative legal watchdog group, has initiated seven investigations into Vice President Kamala Harris’ prosecutorial record, particularly during her tenure as San Francisco District Attorney.

The investigations focus on allegations of noncompliance with federal donor privacy laws, failure to enforce immigration laws, conflicts of interest, and misconduct oversight, among other issues.

The group is examining Harris’ relationships that may have led to political favoritism, especially regarding her ties to California Assembly Speaker Willie Brown.

Additionally, they are scrutinizing her support for a bail fund that aided violent protesters in 2020, questioning the effectiveness and transparency of the fund.

America First Legal claims that Harris’ prosecutorial actions align with political objectives rather than adherence to the rule of law, suggesting that her methods mirror those they argue have been politically motivated in past prosecutions, like those involving former President Donald Trump.

“A lot of her tough on crime reputation goes to her prosecution when she was San Francisco DA, individuals who use marijuana and other sorts of things,” AFL President Dan Epstein stated. “Our investigation, however, makes it very clear that Kamala Harris does not believe much in terms of statutes passed by legislatures, including the Federal United States, Congress, as well as the state of California.”

“And so those are really our probes of her not following the rule of law and bending it for a political objective,” Epstein said. “We also probe numerous kind of potential ethics issues and failures to disclose conflicts of interest, allowing her own staff as attorney general to engage in fraud and not kind of overseeing that.”

“It’s fairly clear that nobody disagrees, nobody disagrees that Trump is a felon because of political prosecution,” Epstein said. “And if the standard for Kamala Harris is that the process that led to Donald Trump being convicted is one of justice and one that she follows, then logically, it means that she is a political prosecutor, not a fair honest broker.”

Harris said, “What needs to be looked at . . . is comprehensive immigration reform . . . Immigration policy in our country has to be reformed, and it has to be based on the fact that we have 11 million undocumented in this country—and California has the largest numbers of undocumented, in excess of 2 million people. In California, one in two Californians was born outside the United States or has a parent born outside the U.S.—including myself.”
