Vice President Kamala Harris’s presidential campaign rests on pretending she spent her early years in office as a tough prosecutor fighting crime. However, new records show that as recently as last year, her new persona is all a lie.
Harris and her husband, Doug Emhoff, cut checks to a far-left legal group promoting harmful policies like defunding the police and turning Washington, D.C., into a permanent sanctuary city for illegal immigrants, according to financial disclosures reviewed by the Washington Examiner. Their joint tax return showed that Harris and Emhoff donated to Legal Aid DC in 2023 and 2021.
NEW: Kamala Harris and Doug Emhoff—as recently as last year—personally cut checks to a nonprofit in Washington, D.C., that supported defunding police and lobbied for a permanent “sanctuary city” law for illegal migrants, tax records showhttps://t.co/WZ7794I995

On the surface, Legal Aid DC is a nonprofit organization in Washington, D.C., that gives inhabitants of low-income areas access to legal representation. But the Washington Examiner found that hiding beneath its veneer of community giving is actually a far-left organization that not only stood with the 2020 George Floyd rioters but also promoted the defund the police ideology in our nation’s Capitol.

As Legal Aid’s Amanda Korber noted in the article, we are concerned, especially given the ongoing protest movement, about any solution that involves more police and policing in DC public housing. #BlackLivesMatterDC https://t.co/EX73qgZGmM

In 2021, the organization posted an article with quotes from Minneapolis City Councilman Jeremiah Ellison promoting the Black Lives Matter movement. In 2020, Ellison posted about his desire to “dismantle the Minneapolis Police Department” on Twitter.
“We are going to dismantle the Minneapolis Police Department,” Ellison posted. “And when we’re done, we’re not simply gonna glue it back together. We are going to dramatically rethink how we approach public safety and emergency response. It’s really past due.”

Legal Aid DC also worked to get a law passed that turned Washington, D.C., into a sanctuary city for illegal immigrants in 2020. The now-law stops U.S. Marshalls and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers from detaining illegal immigrants outside the D.C. courthouse and prevents the use of city prisons to act as ICE detention centers.

Conservatives exposed Harris’s previous support for these measures with her Twitter post that included a link to the Minnesota Freedom Fund, asking for donations to help bail out rioters who burned down cities in Minnesota. (The post is still live.)
If you’re able to, chip in now to the @MNFreedomFund to help post bail for those protesting on the ground in Minnesota. https://t.co/t8LXowKIbw

During her failed 2020 presidential campaign, Harris promoted radical policies that included ending court-ordered fines and mandatory minimum sentencing, shortening probation fines with no punishment for violating parole, no arrests for minors who commit crimes at school, automatic expungement and sealing of felony records, and ending mass incarceration.
Kamala Harris says it’s “misinformation” that she promoted the Minnesota Freedom Fund, a far-left organization that has bailed violent criminals — including accused murderers and rapists — out of jail.

While these policies were extremely popular among Democrats during the 20202 race riots, they aren’t anymore because Americans don’t want to live in anarchy, which is likely why her campaign scrubbed any reference to her support. Instead, she has flipped into promoting her record as a prosecutor to help cover up her radical far-left beliefs. (ROOKE: Kamala Kowtows To Far Left In First Major Campaign Decision)
Harris was one of the Democrats who also gave full-throated support to providing illegal immigrants social benefits and legal status despite them breaking the law when entering the country. Her term as “border czar” under President Joe Biden has seen a record number of illegal immigrants flood American borders.
If Harris wins in November, she won’t be the moderate president her campaign portrays her as. Like her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, she will govern with the intent to push every radical far-left policy she can on the American people, reshaping our country beyond recognition.
