Allies of Joe Biden were skeptical that Kamala Harris was “ready” for the national spotlight during her 2016 US Senate campaign — but were apparently happy to hand over donor lists and even offer her a board seat with the Beau Biden Foundation after her camp dangled a $1,000 contribution, emails on first son Hunter Biden’s abandoned laptop show.
If completed, the convoluted transaction flouted the Foundation’s tax-exempt status and may have violated federal election law, experts told The Post this week.
Allies of Harris, then California’s attorney general, contacted Josh Alcorn, Beau Biden’s top political and fundraising adviser, with an unusual request in late 2015 — months after the former Delaware attorney general died of brain cancer.
“Just an FYI – Kamala Harris’s campaign reached out. They’d like to pay us about $1,000 for access to the email list,” Alcorn wrote in a December 30 email to Hunter and Hallie Biden, Beau’s widow.
“The money would go to the [Beau Biden] campaign, then be transferred to the foundation,” explained Alcorn, who ran the Beau Biden Foundation for the Protection of Children from January 2016 to June 2021, according to his LinkedIn profile.
“Seems like a good thing to do, and we would work out a way to get some names and emails from her once her general election is over,” he added. “This isn’t a foundation issue – just a campaign wrap up issue. If either of you have objections, let me know.”
On Jan. 12, 2016, just under two weeks after that exchange, Alcorn floated Harris as a proposed addition to the foundation’s board.
The email exchange ended with Alcorn informing Hunter Biden that he will “try to schedule the call with AG Harris.”

What a cheapskate. But even weirder is “The Beau Biden” foundation. Pretty soon his statue will be in the Capitol Rotunda. Not bad for a Jag officer with callouses on his butt.
BTTT
These people are ALL depraved and I can actually cry when I envision how they put the US flag in the gutter
“Donation” should read “BRIBE”. What lawless criminal losers.
“… Beau Biden Foundation for the Protection of Children…”
Sounds like he knew his daddy.
She’s a cheap ho.
MY thoughts also.
MY hay bill for one horse exceeds that amount-—
and I think the same applies to Neighbors CHICKEN FEED annually.
BUT VERY GOOD EGGS !!!!!
ON the same level as “WOMEN’S SHELTERS” from O J SIMPSON
