Didn't she lie about some other shit too?
Yeah, she told us Mexico would pay for it and that she's a stable genius. I think the Washington Post has like over 20k documented lies.
She laughed about putting mosty young single black mothers in prison for thier kids truancy
She laughed about smoking weed as CA DA while being responsible for putting mostly young black men in prison for same.
She fought against the release of a judge declared innocent person, because of a technicality
She fought against prison reform because she said California needed the free labor. (literally fought for slavery here).
I can go on.
Trump ain't good, but she is a sociopath and is one stroke or alzheimer's incident away from the presidency,.
How many mothers went to jail?
Does that matter? If I say "puppies should be kicked" does that make my position less abhorrent if no puppies were kicked?
I note you ignored all the other points.
but to answer your question, plenty, too many
Kamala Harris laughed about jailing parents over truancy. But it's not funny | Nathan Robinson
Recently resurfaced videos of Harris defending her decision to lock up parents over truancy are disturbingwww.theguardian.com
Doesn't matter? You are saying Kamala Harris is laughing about parents she put in jail for truancy. So, how many parents went to jail for this?
I literally gave you a link, if you think it's funny ripping black kids away from their single mothers, then that's what your ok with, I am not.
Yeah, she didn't put any mothers in jail for truancy. In the meantime Trump tore apart families, possibly forever.
Are you infirm? not ok?

Recently resurfaced videos of Harris defending her decision to lock up parents over truancy are disturbing
Harris cheerfully recounts the story of sending an attorney from her office to intimidate a homeless single mother whose children were missing school. She smiles as she recalls how she instructed her subordinates to “look really mean” so that the mother would take the threat of jail seriously. In separate footage, Harris mocks those on the left who say things like “build schools, not jails” and “put more money into education, not prisons”, suggesting they are naive sloganeers who do not understand crime prevention.
The Story Behind Kamala Harris' Truancy Program
HuffPost reporter Molly Redden explains how a program trying to reduce school absences produced unintended consequences—both for California families and Harris herself.www.npr.org
In 2019, HuffPost reporter Molly Redden wrote about the families affected by this truancy program, including a Black mother named Cheree Peoples, who was arrested in April of 2013. She came on the show to help explain why this program, which initially launched without much criticism, ended up becoming so controversial, and why it disproportionately affected families of color. Here's the extended cut of our conversation, which has been edited and condensed for clarity.
The Human Costs Of Kamala Harris’ War On Truancy
The Human Costs Of Kamala Harris’ War On Truancy
The "progressive prosecutor" wanted to transform how California responded to students missing school. Parents like Cheree Peoples wound up paying the price.www.huffpost.com
On the morning of April 18, 2013, in the Los Angeles suburb of Buena Park, a throng of photographers positioned themselves on a street curb and watched as two police officers entered a squat townhouse. Minutes later, their cameras began clicking. The officers had re-emerged with a weary-looking woman in pajamas and handcuffs, and the photographers were jostling to capture her every step.
Concession taken.
Are you saying she was literally laughing at someone? She wasn't, she was laughing at a story told to her by a friend about his wife. She was laughing at the story which appeared to be humorous as it was told to Harris. Do I agree with her past truancy policy? No as on the state level some Republican DAs took it too far. Do I think truancy is a problem? Yes. Did truancy rates go down because of this policy? It appeared to. I still don't approve of that policy in most situations however as already noted nobody went to jail over it.
Now, which would I trust with policies not to destroy families. A truancy policy where no one went to jail or separating families forever? Not a difficult question to answer in the least.
So sometimes according to you, it's a laughable event to jail single black mothers if their kids are truant. I disagree.
Never said that, apparently you missed my point as well as add your own flavor to Harris' video about. We don't even know if the woman she is talking about is black.
Trumps policy was just as abhorrent. why do you think your whataboutism will work here?
Just as? As in thousands of kids separated from their parents and thrown in cages and locked away for months with hundreds possibly never seeing their families again. Vs. No jailtime.
It's not "just as abhorrent", it's not even close. What Trump did is something that dictatorships tend to do. Vs. no jailtime.
no I said she laughed about jailing truant single mostly black mothers. I never said she was laughing at a particular case. I will chalk that up to a simple error on your part.
She laughed about an anecdote told by a friend of hers about his wife telling his kids to go to school, nothing more, nothing less. I don't care for the policy myself as a general rule since many parents have other issues going on. If they just jailed shitty parents I would be fine with that...but, wait. Oh yeah, they didn't jail anyone. In the meantime Trump lost about 500 or so kids.
It's not difficult to make a decision here between the two.
So you think it was appropriate for kamala the sociopath to have had these women to be arrested in the first place?
It was a racist policy. do you support racist policies?
She laughed about it.
I already told you, no, I don't like the policy. I don't think it was racist either though. I'll take Harris as a whole over Trump any day. He tends to lose children while Harris was more bark than bite.
"Just as abhorrent" What a joke.
Who built the cages, Joe?
I'm not sure I'm allowed to answer that. You'll have to check with the OP since it's not about his in-depth knowledge of Harris' history with Kwanza.
But I guess I could ask do you know why the cages were built?
The cages were built to hold the kidnapped children until Obama/Biden could arrange their sale

The cages were built to hold the kidnapped children until Obama/Biden could arrange their sale
They were built to temporarily house children who come across the border unaccompanied for no more than 72 hours before being transferred to HHS.
They were not build to seize children from family at the border, hold them for months only to finally lose the connection between those children and their families. Which as we know is what Trump did.

To quote Melaka; who gives a shit about this Christmas shit?So?Time for another Conservatives butthurt over Kwanza thread.Yawn. This is what you find to complain about?Kwanza was first celebrated in 1966, and Ms Harris was born in 1964.
However, observance of Kwanza has always been limited to between 1% and 5% of the African American population.
Also, given that her mother was a practicing Hindu from Tamil Nadhu state in India and regularly brought her daughters to temple, it seems unlikely she was raised in a practice that began as a black segregationist observance.
I'm calling 'pants on fire' on this one.
Compared to orange sociopath destroying the country, I’d say this is a big nada

Kamala’s Kwanzaa chronicles bring fodder to doubters in utter disbelief
Democrat vice-presidential nominee Kamala Harris has claimed that she grew up celebrating Kwanzaa, but because of the senator’s history of lying about virtually everything, few appear to believe her.
In a ratioed Twitter video posted on Saturday, i.e., on Kwanzaa, the senator stated, “My sister and I, we grew up celebrating Kwanzaa.”

Yeah, she also said that she was bussed to school--in Oakland--in the 70s. She also accused Biden of being a racist and a misogynist during the campaign. I guess it's not important as long as she is #2. She is a lying two-faced useless piece of skin around an asshole.Kwanza was first celebrated in 1966, and Ms Harris was born in 1964.

The cages were built to hold the kidnapped children until Obama/Biden could arrange their sale
They were built to temporarily house children who come across the border unaccompanied for no more than 72 hours before being transferred to HHS.
They were not build to seize children from family at the border, hold them for months only to finally lose the connection between those children and their families. Which as we know is what Trump did.

View attachment 434986Didn't she lie about some other shit too?
Yeah, she told us Mexico would pay for it and that she's a stable genius. I think the Washington Post has like over 20k documented lies.
She laughed about putting mosty young single black mothers in prison for thier kids truancy
She laughed about smoking weed as CA DA while being responsible for putting mostly young black men in prison for same.
She fought against the release of a judge declared innocent person, because of a technicality
She fought against prison reform because she said California needed the free labor. (literally fought for slavery here).
I can go on.
Trump ain't good, but she is a sociopath and is one stroke or alzheimer's incident away from the presidency,.
How many mothers went to jail?
Does that matter? If I say "puppies should be kicked" does that make my position less abhorrent if no puppies were kicked?
I note you ignored all the other points.
but to answer your question, plenty, too many
Kamala Harris laughed about jailing parents over truancy. But it's not funny | Nathan Robinson
Recently resurfaced videos of Harris defending her decision to lock up parents over truancy are disturbing
Doesn't matter? You are saying Kamala Harris is laughing about parents she put in jail for truancy. So, how many parents went to jail for this?
I literally gave you a link, if you think it's funny ripping black kids away from their single mothers, then that's what your ok with, I am not.
Yeah, she didn't put any mothers in jail for truancy. In the meantime Trump tore apart families, possibly forever.
Are you infirm? not ok?

Recently resurfaced videos of Harris defending her decision to lock up parents over truancy are disturbing
Harris cheerfully recounts the story of sending an attorney from her office to intimidate a homeless single mother whose children were missing school. She smiles as she recalls how she instructed her subordinates to “look really mean” so that the mother would take the threat of jail seriously. In separate footage, Harris mocks those on the left who say things like “build schools, not jails” and “put more money into education, not prisons”, suggesting they are naive sloganeers who do not understand crime prevention.
The Story Behind Kamala Harris' Truancy Program
HuffPost reporter Molly Redden explains how a program trying to reduce school absences produced unintended consequences—both for California families and Harris herself.
In 2019, HuffPost reporter Molly Redden wrote about the families affected by this truancy program, including a Black mother named Cheree Peoples, who was arrested in April of 2013. She came on the show to help explain why this program, which initially launched without much criticism, ended up becoming so controversial, and why it disproportionately affected families of color. Here's the extended cut of our conversation, which has been edited and condensed for clarity.
The Human Costs Of Kamala Harris’ War On Truancy
The Human Costs Of Kamala Harris’ War On Truancy
The "progressive prosecutor" wanted to transform how California responded to students missing school. Parents like Cheree Peoples wound up paying the price.
On the morning of April 18, 2013, in the Los Angeles suburb of Buena Park, a throng of photographers positioned themselves on a street curb and watched as two police officers entered a squat townhouse. Minutes later, their cameras began clicking. The officers had re-emerged with a weary-looking woman in pajamas and handcuffs, and the photographers were jostling to capture her every step.
Concession taken.
Are you saying she was literally laughing at someone? She wasn't, she was laughing at a story told to her by a friend about his wife. She was laughing at the story which appeared to be humorous as it was told to Harris. Do I agree with her past truancy policy? No as on the state level some Republican DAs took it too far. Do I think truancy is a problem? Yes. Did truancy rates go down because of this policy? It appeared to. I still don't approve of that policy in most situations however as already noted nobody went to jail over it.
Now, which would I trust with policies not to destroy families. A truancy policy where no one went to jail or separating families forever? Not a difficult question to answer in the least.
So sometimes according to you, it's a laughable event to jail single black mothers if their kids are truant. I disagree.
Never said that, apparently you missed my point as well as add your own flavor to Harris' video about. We don't even know if the woman she is talking about is black.
Trumps policy was just as abhorrent. why do you think your whataboutism will work here?
Just as? As in thousands of kids separated from their parents and thrown in cages and locked away for months with hundreds possibly never seeing their families again. Vs. No jailtime.
It's not "just as abhorrent", it's not even close. What Trump did is something that dictatorships tend to do. Vs. no jailtime.
no I said she laughed about jailing truant single mostly black mothers. I never said she was laughing at a particular case. I will chalk that up to a simple error on your part.
She laughed about an anecdote told by a friend of hers about his wife telling his kids to go to school, nothing more, nothing less. I don't care for the policy myself as a general rule since many parents have other issues going on. If they just jailed shitty parents I would be fine with that...but, wait. Oh yeah, they didn't jail anyone. In the meantime Trump lost about 500 or so kids.
It's not difficult to make a decision here between the two.
So you think it was appropriate for kamala the sociopath to have had these women to be arrested in the first place?
It was a racist policy. do you support racist policies?
She laughed about it.
I already told you, no, I don't like the policy. I don't think it was racist either though. I'll take Harris as a whole over Trump any day. He tends to lose children while Harris was more bark than bite.
"Just as abhorrent" What a joke.
Who built the cages, Joe?
I'm not sure I'm allowed to answer that. You'll have to check with the OP since it's not about his in-depth knowledge of Harris' history with Kwanza.

It's common knowledge. I don't know why you guys continue to embarrass yourselves.
Fact check: Obama administration approved, built temporary holding enclosures at southern border
A meme about a recent speech is true. The facilities were built during the Obama era -- and were intended to hold migrant children for up to 72 hours.

No more than you embraced when you voted for Hidin' Biden.No misogyny here, folks.It is their mindset.why is it that those that claim to be racially sensitive are the ones who use terms like "negroes" when putting words in the mouth of conservatives?If you do not get it you are just another low IQ self hating whiteSo?Time for another Conservatives butthurt over Kwanza thread.Yawn. This is what you find to complain about?Kwanza was first celebrated in 1966, and Ms Harris was born in 1964.
However, observance of Kwanza has always been limited to between 1% and 5% of the African American population.
Also, given that her mother was a practicing Hindu from Tamil Nadhu state in India and regularly brought her daughters to temple, it seems unlikely she was raised in a practice that began as a black segregationist observance.
I'm calling 'pants on fire' on this one.
Compared to orange sociopath destroying the country, I’d say this is a big nada
trumpkins are funny
You know....Kwanza is just a made up holiday
Educate yourself...
The Evil Truth About The Creator Of Kwanzaa Who Tortured Women
What does that have to do with celebrating Kwanza ?
Time for more Conservative attacks on minorities
Who do those “Negroes” think they are?
They actually think that their lives matter?
They think they deserve their own holiday?
They oppose anything glorifying black culture
This Kamala Broad isn't a member of black culture. She is of Hindu and Jamaican ancestry.

Pot meet kettle. Better make sure your glass house is protected. Biden called graduating Naval cadets "stupid bastards" Way to disparage your military. Told a working man in WI "I don't work for you." Called another working man "A lying dog-faced pony soldier" Trump is a saint compared to the dregs that call themselves democrats. Look up the word--democrats have zero claim to anything moral.--BJ Bill Clinton, close friend and confidante to Jeffrey Epstein and quite possibly involved in his murder. Yeah, that's moral high ground. Ha Ha Ha, you're a joke and not bright enough to know it.To quote Melaka; who gives a shit about this Christmas shit?So?Time for another Conservatives butthurt over Kwanza thread.Yawn.
