Kamala Harris has been polling pretty well lately, but before the Left decides to adopt her as their savior and answer to Donald Trump, they should probably take a look at this thread:

In case it wasn’t clear, that thread was put together by a leftist. A Marxist Bernie supporter, actually. Obviously we don’t agree that blocking federal funding of abortions is a bad thing. But Kamala Harris’ civil rights record is abysmal, and she absolutely deserves to be called out on it.
I thought I knew a lot of Kamala dirt, but this is the comprehensive spilling of the tea. READ THIS THREAD. https://t.co/RaURX3gqc0

Wow, what a fraud. If this is who the Dems are gonna our forward as their chosen one, good luck.
— 1%er (@joel_brandow) July 2, 2019
So, which Democrat is going to step up and call her out?
if biden doesn’t lay into harris with just HALF of these examples at the next debate, he has no place being on that stage. https://t.co/uSPmPO7e1U

Straight up political malpractice if he doesn’t. I don’t think he has the teeth for it though.

Guess we’ll just have to wait and see.
