2/ "Kamala Harris. It ain't the fact that she's black. Howard University. Alpha Chapter, AKA. It's enough to get my attention. But it ain't enough to get my vote. All skinfolk ain't kinfolk. You better check her record. And I did that. I found out some things. She dope. Dope!"
3/ "Kamala Harris is almost exactly what you'd expect from a prosecutor with the credentials I just mentioned. First off, you don't even qualify to talk about her unless you heard about Back on Track. That's like tryin' to discuss Jay Z without hearing Reasonable Doubt."
4/ "Back on Track was a restorative justice program for 18-24 year old first time non-violent low-level drug offenders. Instead of jail or a charge on their record, folk got sent to bootcamp, where they got job readiness training, parental training..."
5/ "...earned a GED, got connected with employers for a career, got they credit fixed. That's a pretty good deal... once people graduated that program [Kamala] threw they charges out like it never happened."
6/ "As DA of San Francisco, she made social services help parents of chronically and habitually truant kids. Twitter told y'all she was threatening them in jail."
Nope.
Nope.
7/ "Kamala Harris said: "The most important issues for me really, is that we get these kids into school. The goal is not to prosecute parents. It's to get these children to go to school. We are not talking about hooky and playing hooky. And frankly, we all did, okay?"
8/ Drew: "Nah they were missing 40-80 days. That ain't hooky, that's hiatus. And nobody went to jail. I checked. Sister [Kamala] got them kids back in school, and kept them out of incarceration and the grave."
9/"[Kamala] created reentry initiatives so people in jail can get out & not go back. Convicted over 1200 domestic abusers. Prosecuted child molesters, rapists, and violent criminals. Transnational gangs. Got 20 billion back for CA from the big banks after the foreclosure crisis."
10/ "Created the civil rights division in the San Francisco DA's office. When she first got in, she threw the charges out for the activists and the protesters who got arrested. Shawty a hero! Senator, no disrespect."
11/ "Not to mention incarceration rates for marijuana fell each year she was AG. So much for that theory about her believing in mass incarceration. With Kamala Harris, I'm excited. I'm excited about her plans for government reform, and HBCU agenda."
12/ "I'm excited about women's equal pay, & a return of consent decrees. I'm excited about black homeownership & a black woman on the Supreme Court. I'm excited about black businesses boomin'. And the D9 Step Show the day before inauguration. Y'all know they havin' a step show."
13/ "And I'm gonna be there too with $8.00 fish plate and some mambo sauce. At the end of the day, she's the strongest and most prepared. And exactly what America needs right now. I look forward to seeing how stroll into the white house in 2021. That's a AKA joke."
14/ "I hope she don't make her cabinet members probate though. Nah seriously. Four to eight years of D9 jokes is gonna be hilarious. I still ain't been the same since somebody said she's gonna put AKA tags in the back of Air Force One."
