Kamala Harris launched political career with $120K 'patronage' job from boyfriend Willie Brown

Then 30, Harris was dating 60-year-old Willie Brown, at the time the Democratic speaker of the California State Assembly, when he placed her on the California Medical Assistance Commission in 1994. The position paid over $70,000 per year, $120,700 in current money, and Harris served on the board until 199

Brown’s decision to appoint Harris raised eyebrows in political circles. “Both boards are reserved for political payback or occasionally for personal rewards for personal service,” said Brett Granlund, a former California Republican state assemblyman who worked closely with the commission while Harris was on the board. “The boards are considered plumb appointments as they require no work, no policy credentials, and are paid the equivalent of a full-time [state] senator for arriving at a one- to two-hour meeting each month.”

The breakup reportedly happened shortly after Brown met 32-year-old San Francisco socialite Carolyn Carpeneti, a woman with whom he would later have a daughter. While the two were dating, Carpeneti was paid $2.33 million for campaign work from a network of nonprofit groups and committees run by Brown and his associates, according to the San Francisco Chronicle.

She’s made a career out of flirting with men. Several photos of her hanging all over different men. She’s a tramp.

We are all fools..We should have a tax revolt

*************

That’s what these corrupt politicians count on: the voters’ laziness, ignorance, and apathy. And it works for them.

I’m always amazed of how intelligent and courageous our founding fathers were.

When I look around today, I cannot find men like those.
The Veterans are the best example I can think of.

Not political. Duty bound. Love of Country.
When I encounter a solider I am filled joy and respect.

God Bless You

Democrat, candidate of POTUS, Joe Biden hides in his closet today and will not attend the Democrat gathering in California today in the hope he will escape nasty questions from the media or, his fellow candidates? His fellow Democrat candidates for 2020 POTUS, Twenty-three of them will act like sheep heading to slaughtered and not utter a word, google or bad about Biden.

IMHO, These sadsack, weak, empty suit, zero, candidates are nothing but weak sisters from A-Z. Shucks, if I were running for POTUS, Joe Biden would have a new butt head when I got done with him. Case closed.

and she’s Ineligible
and
she’s cleverly obfuscated, hidden the facts of her ineligibility off her website and campaign materials

she needs to be prosecuted for raising funds under false pretenses, imho

Kamala Harris started her career in “public service” sitting on Willie Brown's staff.

Nice work if you can get it.

NEITHER OF HER PARENTS WERE USA CITIZENS WHEN SHE WAS BORN.

C'mon, you don't really think that makes any difference today?

” political payback or occasionally for personal rewards for personal service”

In other words, corruption. Politicians reward the ones who gave them money or votes. Why many people hate politicians.

“He’s one of those Democrats that you can’t help but to have some grudging respect for.”

You must be joking! Respect? Respect for what? The fact that he could careless what people think of his despicable actions actions? Or the fact the he is a black politician and therefore untouchable. Clearly you and I have a very different definition of “respect”.

This was known, all over the San Francisco papers back then.
Not at all a secret.
Some of her other jobs also, at least it was suspected.

Note also Willie tossing money at other women.
This was open corruption. Nobody cared.
