Vice President Kamala Harris has close ties with a Democrat who tried to make child pornography possession a non-felony in California, the Daily Caller has learned.
Mark Leno, a Democrat politician who served in the California State Senate until November 2016 and is someone Harris has called a “dear friend,” authored a piece of legislation that would have allowed pedophiles to possess up to 99 items depicting child pornography before they could be charged with a felony, according to former Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy.
At the time, McCarthy was serving as the California Assembly Republican leader and said Assembly Bill 50 as originally written would have allowed the possession of up to 99 items of child pornography before the crime could be prosecuted as a felony. A compact disc (CD) with 1,000 images on it would have counted as one item, according to McCarthy.
The legislation received pushback even from Democrats. Political analyst and veteran Democrat Pat Caddell told the Los Angeles Daily News: “What the Democrats did on AB 50 was insane, insane – 100 exemptions for child porn? They had to figure out this was not good? If this seeps into voters’ minds, my God.'”
An op-ed in the Los Angeles Daily News also stated: “Early on, AB 50 was filled with loopholes that would make your skin crawl. For instance, Leno provided an ‘exemption’ from felony charges if a suspect was caught with less than 100 pieces of child pornography. In a creepy all-time low, Assembly Democrats voted for Leno’s plan to go soft on child porn.”
Leno and Harris have maintained a close relationship for over two decades, according to both of their social media posts and old news articles.

In 2003, Leno campaigned with Harris during her run for San Francisco District Attorney.
“With less name recognition than Hallinan and Fazio, Harris is taking her message to the streets. Saturday, she campaigned through the Castro with queer leaders including Assemblyman Mark Leno, Alice B. Toklas LGBT Democratic Club co-chair Theresa Sparks, Hank Wilson and Martha Knutzen,” The San Fransisco Examiner wrote in 2003.
Leno also appeared to spend the 2003 election night having dinner with Harris.
“On election night, Matthew and Kamala and I believe [then state Assemblymember] Mark Leno and a couple of other people went to dinner, and Kamala was like, ‘Come to dinner,’ and I’m like, ‘No, I’m going to sit here with Shyamala [and her friend], and we’re going to get the [election results], we’re going to hang out,’” an interview published in KQED states.

Every man I had sex with when I was 14 knew I was 14 beforehand.
LGBTQ culture has no socially imposed boundaries on it. They don’t police themselves. They are too consumed with protecting their political causes and shaming rightwing bigots.
Teen sex work is the norm in LGBTQ centers.
Trans icons glamorize being prostitutes as teens and it’s viewed as a rite of passage.
13 - 17 year olds are a high HIV risk group.
Progressives view children as sexual beings and independent from their parents.
This is a culture, one protected from scrutiny.
Democrats love their chomo groomers.
Wonder how close her and Scott Weiner are?
So you’re telling me she’s a Democrat?
Now I want to throw up.
And I didn’t even eat fast food.
That attitude by Kamala was the clincher when Joe Biden decided to choose her for VP. “She’s the black female I’ll have to take. I like the kiddie stuff in her resume. Open minded like me.” /S

I love coaching. Getting my hands on those young guys in their youthful formative years when they can be molded into pursuing a future by what I teach them one-on-one, just us alone. It’s rewarding.
GAYDAR OFFTHE CHARTS!!

> tried to make child pornography possession a non-felony
Under what possible circumstances could this ever seem like a good idea?
Gavin Newsom is another who is ok with pedophiles.
So, Harris chose Walz specifically. Yikes!
