Kamala Disinformation Debunked Thread: On debate night 2 we saw trash Twitter talking points get parroted by two so-called presidential candidates. They are banking on people taking their smears at face value but I won't stand for it. Feel free to share/RT #KHive #Kamala2020
▪️SFPD Lab Tech Deborah Madden allegedly stole cocaine
▪️Crime Lab was ran by PD not Kamala's office.
▪️Kamala without being ordered to dropped over 1,500 cases (far above the cases that were handled by Madden)
▪️Kamala implemented reforms in response (see addtl sources below)
❌ Kamala did NOT fight to keep prisoners for cheap labor
▪️ DAG Patrick McKinney unsuccessfully argued the case without Kamala's knowledge
▪️Kamala was not personally involved in the 10s of 1000s of filings by all of the 1,000 attorneys per year
Source: buzzfeednews.com/article/adamse…
▪️Recreational marijuana was not legalized until 2018 (ballot measure passed 2016), so marijuana possession was illegal the entire time Kamala was DA/AG
▪️Kamala CREATED the 1st of it's kind Back On Track program to provide job/education/housing assistance to drug offenders
❌Kamala did NOT "withhold evidence to exonerate an innocent man on death row"
▪️Kamala had NO involvement with Kevin Cooper as he had already exhausted all of his appeals BEFORE she was AG
▪️Cooper needed clemency which was denied by Schwarzenegger & punted by Gov Jerry Brown
Additional contemporaneous sources:
▪️SF Lab cases dismissed

I've heard more vitriol directed @ VP for telling people they can Google testing sites than Ron DeSantis got for letting 1 MILLION covid tests expire during the Omicron surge & refusing to open state sites. Homegirl ⬇️ said nothing about that but called VP wicked. A few things 🧵
The admin has already conceded more needed to be done on testing AND they have done exactly that. Also even before Omicron, they already invested $1 billion in at-home testing capacity. States also have a responsibility for scaling up testing.
Testing wait times are longer not because VP wickedly refuses to wave her magic pinky, it's because we are dealing with astronomical surge of cases. The daily avg is 800K new cases with a positivity rate>30%. Labs don't have the capacity to turn results around quicker (see ⬇️)

I see there is a sudden renewed interest in anti-lynching legislation as opposed to mostly crickets last year when Rand Klan Paul filibustered it. Here's a quick thread on where it stands for people who are afraid Juneteenth is distracting from getting it passed ⬇️
Last year's George Floyd #JusticeInPolicing Act included #MVPHarris' Justice for Lynching Victims Act (JFVLA), but it was taken out in this session. The JFLVA is still in the Republicans JUSTICE Act. The House has 2 bills & the Senate has 1 that are still in committees.
In the House, the Emmett Till and Will Brown Justice for Victims of Lynching Act of 2021 is identical to the Senate bill introduced by then Sen #KamalaHarris & co-sponsored by Sen Booker that passed unanimously in the Sen 2X; but it has much fewer co-sponsors than the other bill.

To the "betcha Kamala Harris wouldn't March at a BLM rally" people who responded to her appearance at DC Pride...per usual you are loud and wrong. She ALREADY DID. What else y'all wanna be fake mad about? #MVPHarris
To the "betcha Kamala won't keep the same energy for Juneteenth" folks in response to her appearance at DC Pride- per usual y'all loud & wrong. She introduced a bill to make Juneteenth a national holiday & appeared at a rally. What else yall wanna be fake mad about? #MVPHarris
To the "why won't she speak out about the lynching bill" folks in response to her at DC Pride- per usual y'all loud & wrong. She successfully got it passed after 200 prior failed attempts in the Senate b4 Rand Paul blocked it. What else yall wanna be fake mad about? #MVPHarris

Chile now folks are saying VP of the UNITED STATES Kamala Harris is supposed to solve the COVID-19 crisis in a whole ass nother sovereign country? Let's speak truth: MVP isn't getting attacked because she isn't Indian/Asian enough...she's getting attacked cuz she's too Black.
The common theme in these #MVPHarris hit pieces against isn't just anti-Blackness & racial gatekeeping, it's people making arbitrary measures of how much/ what VP should SAY with no regard for what is being done. We gotta get away from the tweet or it didn't happen culture.
Let me show you how they blatantly LIE on MVP. The article paints VP as only commenting on India as an afterthought at random events not about India. Yet here VP is at an event specifically about US->India relief efforts also speaking about her personal connection.

Yall I am LIVID! I took my car to @CarMax & they pulled a bait & switch reducing the online offer by 3100! When I said NO the rep told me she ALREADY SIGNED OVER MY TITLE! Now how the hell do you sign my title b4 I AGREE to an offer & get a check? That is beyond unscrupulous!
.@carmax Drastically reducing the offer was annoying but I have other options incl. keeping my paid off car. But to sign over my title without my consent is outrageous! Now I have to wait for another title to be ordered because I for damn sure ain't accepting their rip off offer.
I should've just used the Far superior online sales option my husband used that didn't bait & switch. Apparently @carmax thinks I have a crack habit I need to support by selling my car for crackhead prices. I can assure them I do not! I'll keep y'all posted but I am PISSED!
