In light of rumors that Kamala screamed at her campaign manager over the Molly Shannon SNL skit flub during the Al Smith dinner, lets talk a bit about Julie Chavez Rodriguez, manager of the Harris Campaign: 🧵

To start off with, her only interesting quality, and the only reason she's gotten anywhere in life, is that she is latino labor activist Cesar Chavez' granddaughter. The irony of this, is that Chavez' entire struggle was defined by being against illegal migration.

You would think that a hispanic woman in such a prominent position would be some foreign born or 1st generation woman who was groomed from adolescence, like the manchurian candidate county judge of Houston, Lina Hidalgo. But Chavez' roots in America are the late 1800's.

Cesar Chavez himself was born in Yuma, AZ. And his struggle was one to organize the farmworkers in order to get better conditions in the central valley of California. Ironically, the Okies that came after the dustbowl tried this and were replaced by Mexican and Filipino Americans

So when Chavez began to organize the largely American born farm laborers, the California growers did what they always did, they imported scabs who would work for less to replace them permanently, in this case "Braceros" (work permit mexicans) and later, illegal immigrants.

Cesar Chavez wanted illegals and braceros deported as they drove down wages. His cousin manuel led several UFW members to the border to violently attack illegals who were coming to be strikebreakers. He even reported them to INS (ICE of yesteryear)

Anyway, back to Kamalas campaign manager, Julie. If you're wondering why the campaign seems to be catering purely to their own base in the most clownish and out of touch way possible, it's probably because of Julies nepobaby out of touch resume.

>Attends UC Berkeley and obtains Bachelors of "Science" in "Latin American Studies" in 2001
>Interns with the AFL-CIO and UFWA during the summers
>Graduates and spends the next 8 years as a "program director" at the Cesar Chavez Foundation
>Volunteers for Obama campaign in 2008

>Hired by Obama admin as "Director of Youth Employment" and later Deputy Press Secretary, to the Secretary of the Interior
>2011 to 2016, serves in Obamas "Office of Public Engagement" and later as a Special Assistant to Obama, directly working on outreach to minority/gay groups

She got the boot when Trump came into the WH, and she became the State Director for Kamala Harris when she was a Senator, which is a pretty hard job to fuck up in California, where the entire state apparatus is just the DNC crime syndicate.

She then served on Harris' primary campaign in 2020 as her chief of staff and political director, until Biden secured the primary. She then joined Bidens 2020 campaign as director of latino outreach.

Given all the fraud in 2020, that was about as challenging as her CA post.

>Director of White House Intergovernmental Affairs
>Senior advisor to President Biden
>Campaign manager of Biden 2024

Essentially, Julie is a lifelong bureaucrat in the NGO/Political sphere, which doesn't lend itself well to understanding what normal people think, it's a bubble.

The Deputy Campaign Manager, Quentin Fulks, is a guy who also has a lifelong activist/political career, which means he is similarly sheltered. He lacks Chavez' family pedigree, but spent his career working with lefty power players like J.B. Pritzker, Raphael Warnock, etc.

Fulks is in charge of the campaigns advertising campaign, which really makes you wonder if this big focus on getting black men to show up to vote for Kamala says something about his own insecurity regarding the camp he's occupying right now.

A latina and a black guy who've never worked a real job in their entire lives running the campaign for a pathetically stupid woman who climbed the ladder on her knees, I guess we should count our blessings. The usual crop of psychopathic but competent white lefties must have had better things to do, thank God.

And I think this says something about the future of the DNC. They haven't selected for competency, but for ideology. The patronage they have given for over a generation amounts to giving unproductive and unintelligent people makework sinecures and we wonder why they suck.

This is why, as I said the other day regarding Trumps hints at deeply shaving away or completely ending federal income tax, the way that conservative/right wing patronage works is by taking away tax burdens because we are already productive people who don't need welfare.

Also, not to go too into depth on Cesar Chavez again, but the problem when he was organizing a trade union was that he needed money to pay his own salary and that of the organization itself. What happened was a sequence of "for pay" projects to register mexican-americans to vote.

50k here, 30k there, Chavez slowly became that which he had hated, a politico controlling a voter bloc to line his own pockets for the DNCs benefit. It's quite the betrayal he experienced that in 1965, dems passed the Hart Celler Act, which is what opened up southern immigration.

These are the dangers of a veto proof majority, Hart-Celler changed the future of America just as much as the Civil Rights Act when it was signed into law, in much more irreperable ways.

Lets go get our own veto proof majority and fix it.
